I remember Roger Taylor from Queen talking about the day of the Live Aid show, he said that there were "all these little synth bands s**tting themselves at the prospect of playing in front of a billion people". He turned to Freddie and asked him if he was nervous. Freddie's response was, "Darling, I was f**king born for this day!" This is the difference between Queen and other bands.

@spoonunit03 11 месяцев назад

Yeah, you could tell that Freddie was free on stage. Life off stage was a struggle for him. Thankfully, for him and the rest of the world, Queen gave him the opportunity and he took full advantage. F*****g Bravo. :)

Queen was fading as a band at the time, and weren’t on the poster for the show. They destroyed it so much, that not only did it give their career a shot in the arm, but it is widely believed to be the best live set ever. 20 minutes of perfection.

@minosegdelwonk7851 11 месяцев назад

This song became a bit auto biographical for the band for this reason. Like the radio, a technology being replaced by TV for entertainment, Queen was in danger of becoming background noise to more "modern" music. They had their finest hour, years after they had already had their time in the spotlight.

Freddie would have turned 77 on September 5th. Considering that the amazing Mr. Tony Bennett was 94 when he gave his last public performance, and was still playing the piano and singing just the week before he passed, I think Freddie would have still been singing and strutting were he still alive today. Also, 🎉CONGRATULATIONS BRITT!!!🎉

Fun fact, Queen was never slotted to play this venue when the tickets were sold. They were a surprise last minute addition. Which means most of the people who are here bought tickets to see other bands. They didn't buy them to come see Queen. But the minute Queen hit the stage.. they ALL were Queen fans.

Faroukh Bulsara was from a tiny island called Zanzibar off the coast of east Africa and went to school in India. He was raised in the Zoroastrian religion before moving to the UK. A lot of his early songs dealt with him coming to terms with being gay in the 1970s. It’s amusing to me with all the garbage music we have in 2023 that Queen recorded a song slamming bad music in the early 80s. They were ahead of their time.

I am sure his band members miss him every day.

This Legendary concert LiveAid twinned with a concert in Philadelphia USA 🇺🇸, 72 thousand at Wembley Stadium Uk 🇬🇧 92 thousand at Philadelphia USA, the concerts were to raise awareness and funding for a terrible famine in Ethiopia 🇪🇹 Africa, in 1985 it was the first of a kind televised worldwide to nearly 2 billion people, some of the best artists in the world performing on the day, each artist having a 20 minute slot to perform, Queen came on stage and with their flamboyant legendary outstanding performance where by far the best performers on the day Queen stole the show, Freddie had the crowds in the palm of his hand, I actually attended LiveAid and have many fond memories of that time, I also attended a Queen concert at Wembley Stadium 🇬🇧 in 1986, and I attended Freddie’s last live performance at Knebworth park also in 1986 , where the crowd was estimated to be 140 thousand, Freddie is surely missed he in my opinion was the best frontman of a band, great reaction thanks 🙏

Queen has performed at Wembley several times to sold-out crowds. This performance was very special because of all the other participating artists that Queen outclassed. After Queen, David Bowie went on stage for a very good performance, despite a band formed at the last minute. Legend has it that Bowie, only half joking, whispered S.O.B to Freddy, due to the high quality of his performance and the fact that he had added 20 minutes to the scheduled time.

@keymack2477 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for the reaction, Britt! I've been a massive Queen fan since their LP "A Night At The Opera" came to my record store very early in 1976. Within a week I had purchased their first three albums and I was lucky enough to see them live three times! Freddie Mercury was an amazing front man and is a legendary songwriter and performer, but each member of the band were great. All were songwriters, all wrote hit songs for the band, each of them was supremely talented and contributed to the band in their own right. Freddie is fantastic, but the other members of Queen are equally deserving of love and respect.

@BardOfAndromeda 11 месяцев назад

This was more like the peak of a stunning comeback for Queen. Although they never really went away in the early 80s, their career had taken a slight dip in terms of their popularity (with the exception of the "Under Pressure" duet with David Bowie). Then when The Works came out in '84 they were topping the charts again. They still might have been considered by many to have been a bit past their best, though, until this performance happened. Everyone was blown away by what they did at live aid. I can clearly recall the tabloids the next day. Even though dozens of legendary artists had performed (and performed very well), the front pages were all of Freddie with that now-iconic stance with the armband and one fist raised in the air (at least in the UK, where I was).

@jerseyalicia2012 11 месяцев назад

It is in the rock history books as one of the greatest live performances.

But I think Queen would have periodically resurfaced now and then. They would all refresh and return.

Watch their whole performance, and you'll see him engage and control wembly stadium as has never been done before. It's worth the watch and is a real treat.

@TheWillywilliamson 11 месяцев назад

Ahem. Queen's performance at Live Aid in 1985 is also known as "The Perfect Set". Dave Grohl (Nirvana, Foo Fighters) once said that if you're a professional musician you need to study THIS performance to learn how to do live shows. I agree. It's always important to remember (im sure it will be repeated here) that this is NOT a Queen concert. A dozen bands performed before and again after them but they stole the show. That crowd reaction.... Freddie was also sick and was under Doctor's orders to rest his voice and not perform. Its one of the reasons he does that vocal exercise early on to give his voice a quick stretch (his voice improves noticeably after) with the crowd call back. I could go on, but to answer your question this performance is special, period. Maybe not for the channel but I would STRONGLY recommend watching the whole thing one time. its an experience.

@JosephHuntelvisnspiders 11 месяцев назад

They had been already on the map, it was not cool to be a Queen fan in the mid 80's, the non believers thought they 'had their time'. Live Aid proved them wrong and made us fans proud and vindicated, giving it loads of "I TOLD YOU SO!". We seen them live, we knew what to expect and they didn't disappoint. What it did do was bring them back to the top as their back catalogue started soaring in sales straight after this.

Roger Taylor, (the drummer), wrote this love song for the radio medium. (Queen is unique that way, all four members wrote big hits for the band). Queen’s Live Aid performance is often cited as one of the best live shows ever, but of course there is a bias for it because it was televised all over the world, and most people have seen it. But the band pioneered the huge stadium show long before Live Aid. I’m sure they had even better shows, (Freddie was under the weather during Live Aid), and I know they played before larger audiences than this. But the main reason they blew everyone else off the stage that day was they were used to playing stadiums and gigantic crowds, and most other artists of the day weren’t. Ands Freddie goes down in history as the artist with the largest audiences in the palm of his hand. He held them as if it was a gig at a small club. Unsurpassed to this day.

Freddie would have, if not for AIDS, continued to hold that charismatic stage presence till the end! This was, for sure, the BEST and most iconic of Queens performances. It elevates everyone, then and now! Love him, and them,always. NB Roger Taylor lives not far from me, he’s still a handsome man, last time I saw him he was in an open top sports car, looking cool af!

It was the 70's. Legendary times . Radio stations controlled who got heard on the radio. We didn't have a lot of access back then.

In the UK it was a hot summers day and when walking in the streets all you could hear was people watching Live Aid on the TV. It was a magical eighties day, and this was the best performance. Of course though all because of people suffering with a famine - very sad, and still happening today

2 billion people watched Live Aid, 40% of the world's population at that time. Queen kicked ass (largely unexpectedly, because they were a 70s band and this was the mid-80s) in front of the biggest music audience in history. That's why it's iconic.

Queen had previously played to a bigger live crowd than this at the 1976 Hyde Park (London) free concert. Estimates for the crowd range from minimum 100,000 up to 250,000. I spent the whole concert about 25 yards from the front of the stage.

Side fact. Phil Collins performed at Wembley Stadium as well. After his performance, he caught the Concorde jet to NYC. Flew to Philadelphia, and performed again in front of the American Live AID crowd.

They were my first concert. For 15 dollars I got to see them with Billy Squire opening.

Freddie was the master of crowd interaction. Think of Ga Ga as noises babies make.

Every Queen live performance was exactly the same. Excellent.

Hi Britt, great reaction, I could watch Freddie gallivant on stage all day😂 Live aid is definitely one of the most iconic performances. But a couple of others that are known to be iconic or of their top performances are Wembley 1986. A few of the songs from that concert that you should react to our another one bites the dust, under pressure, a kind of magic, and now I’m here. I believe you already reacted to who wants to live forever from the Wembley 86 concert. Another fabulous performance/concert from them is Montreal 1981. I believe you already reacted to somebody to love from that concert, but I would also suggest, save me, dragon attack, under pressure, another one bites the dust, Bohemian Rhapsody. If you like frisky Friday, you should definitely watch him perform fat bottom girls Milton kKeynes 1982.

I wish I was able to see Queen perform life with Freddie! I've watched this video (and many others of live performances) MANY times and just LOVE how he interacts with the audience and how he just has everyone in the palm of his hand!! Just amazing!! And his birthday was 2 days before mine!!!

*This was also recreated in the movie of Queen....it is the hand clapping that makes it unreal*

@philipgolia9803 8 месяцев назад

Radio Ga Ga was written by the drummer, Roger Taylor. The story is one day his young son, Rufus, came out of the room after not being able to find anything to listen to on the radio and simply said "radio caca", and that gave Roger the inspiration to write the song. The audience hand clapping is because in the video of the song, the Queen fan club in the video started the "Ga Ga" clap and the concert audiences accepted it after that.
