FIRST TIME REACTION TO Queen - Live Aid Full Concert 1985 (SPEECHLESS!!!) 

This is considered by many to be one of the greatest live performances of all time

Freddie made non-Queen fans to Queen fans in this Live performance. What a legend! Mic in his one hand and audience in other. Greatest frontman ever. Freddie forever ♥️

That moment on your face when you realise you actually know "we will rock you " but did not know it was Queen , priceless .

Freddie commanded the stage like no one else….he owned the stadium….every time

Freddie was the greatest showman of all. He made you part of the band. R.I.P. Freddie. Please keep smiling for us. It is so beautiful.

When Freddie says "I thank you all" I say We Thank You Freddie. Forever. You fucking legend. GOAT

The biggest thing with Queen was that the audience didn't just watch them perform, they felt that they were part of the show themselves. Queen always wanted to include the fans and they certainly did to the delight of the fans.

I remember watching this live as a boy. I was bored and not interested at the time, but my mom insisted. She told me it was a once in lifetime event so I sat through the whole live aid concert just to humour her and it was an ordeal for me. Well here we are now and I can proudly say I witnessed one of the greatest live performances of all time and I'm so glad for my mom. Parents do know best.

As a 54 year old man, NOTHING on RU-vid makes me more happy to see young people seeing this legend for the first time. Freddie brought together everyone. Every colour or creed to enjoy his music. To see you all carrying this on makes me cry. Thank you for your video.

Freddie. The best frontman a band could have.

First time I saw Queen live, I was in tears. The entire stadium was in tears. I imagine if social media was around then. They would’ve crashed social media. It is nothing like ever seen. Pure God like. RIP.

He was actually sick during this concert and had throat issues. What a powerhouse he was.

Live Aid and Queen ‘s performance there was legendary. The whole world was watching it on tv. And still remembers it today,

this is the best 20 minutes of music ever captured on film! big love to all people :)

The greatest 20 minutes in Rock & Roll history.

Most bands only got 20 minutes to show their stuff. Queen knocked it out the park.

Freddie fought to the end, what a champion. Awesome reaction.

There will never be another freddy!! He was the best!!!!!!

Your face when you hear "We will rock you!" 😄

Queen was always so special, it's was not Freddie Mercury and three other guys, oh no all four were artists that knew what they are doing, they all were an important part of the band and the music. They all wrote number one hits, hits for the people, for the audience. The performance was a kind of comeback for the band Queen, a revival and it totally worked, because it was one of the best live performances ever in music history and they had only a very specific time at this concert. There's a reason for so many clicks and reactions on RU-vid. So thank you, that was really cool and nice. 👏👏 Happy New Year 🥂

A genius who had the crowd in. The. Palm. Of. His. Hand. A voice and stage presence so mesmerising, with superb lyrics and beautifully arranged musical support, that just created perfection for those short, but treasured moments all those years ago. RIP Freddie.

I have watched many, many reactions to this 22 minute concert, and I can safely say yours is the most natural and exciting at hearing songs you didn't know and those you did but didn't know it was Queen until now. A big thumbs up from Birmingham UK.

You are literally watching musical history being made. One of the best all time live performances, by one of the best bands, led by possibly the greatest front man of all time!!! Glad you liked it!

No other performer like him in the world! Losing him was a great loss to music. RIP Freddy 😔

It's interesting that the guitar player is much more than a musician. He's actually a very highly educated astrophysicist.

This was the best performance that whole day love Queen

That afternoon Freddie was king of the world. Music ruled the world , and wasn't it f**ckin brilliant !

I watched Live Aid for one reason....to see Queen. It was surreal, even on television. (R.I.P.) Freddie Mercury such a beautiful soul.

I was dancing and smiling right along with you today! Your joy is contagious!

Yes, unfortunately the appearance was too short. All artists had a fixed time for their performance. Queen had rented a concert hall in London and rehearsed the gig for Liveaid. They were the only ones who rehearsed their appearance down to the smallest detail. So it was the best gig on Liveaid. R. I. P. Freddie

💛 This is the best live act by a rockgroup, ever made. Totaly unique. Love Your channel, Mo! ❤️

I remember having this event playing on the TV all day. I was watching some sets all along, and for others it was more like listening to it through the radio in the background while I tended to this & that, in and out of the room the TV was in, still engaged, but often passively. But not when this began. I liked Queen, but I hadn't been waiting for them in particular to come on stage. Even so, I was watching when they were announced, so I knew I was going to stick around and actually watch their set. I had no idea what I was about to experience. I didn't just watch it; I laughed it, cried it, threw my arms in the air and cheered it, completely surrendered to it. I did the stomps. I did the claps. I did them from my living room, but I did them right with Wembley and the world. Twenty or so minutes later, I knew I had just witnessed something legendary. As great as the event was and so many of the artists were, to my heart and mind it got logged as the Queen show with the greatest list of opening acts ever.

Queen rehearsed this set so often they had it down perfectly. They went only TEN SECONDS over the allotted time. Amazing. Best ever.

One of the things I love about this performance, is whenever Brian is up for a solo, Freddie is either hyping him up, letting him take centre stage or pulling the crowd into the performance and it's magical to see.

Greatest performance of all time by the greatest band and the greatest performer. RIP Mr Mercury gone too soon.

Freddie had 90,000 people in the crowd and a over a billion people around the world watching in the palm of his hand. Freddie made it memorable for us at home as well❤Just subbed.Much love from Canada❤🇨🇦

Outstanding reaction Mo, as always. Freddie was so charismatic, when asked what instrument he liked to play best, his reply was "the audience, darling". Looking beautiful as always my dear, thanks for sharing with us.

Despite a transatlantic line-up laden with pop talent from over two decades, the buzz quickly went around that Queen were stealing Live Aid. The day itself was plagued with technical issues, from The Who taking out an important signal light at the front of the stage to Paul McCartney being rendered inaudible on 'Let it be', but it all came together for this moment. With the exception of 'Hammer to Fall' the setlist is a bundle of crowd-pleasing singles that can still be heard in sports venues today and led to a bit of a resurgence in their popularity in the late 1980s. And for Freddie it was going to be one final, productive push. He can never be replaced.

i remember watching this live on tv at my grandmothers house, it was amazing, and to think he was ill when he performed. he doctor advised him not to perform, so glad he did. if you like them, try someone to love live in Montreal.

Legendary, never anyone like this again!

1985 was a tough year for me. I lost two family members. This video was a good reminder of how much music helped me get through that period of my life.

Who else than Queen will walk on stage and start the show whit their no 1 hit, and one of the greatest hits of all time?

Watching this is like getting to see them in concert. I never got to! 😪

This was not a Queen concert, so the fact that many people who were there for the other bands and singers knew the words and did the clap for Radio Gaga took Freddie and the band by surprise. I enjoyed watching this with you!! As someone who feels self conscious, when Freddie says we are all beautiful, it makes me feel a little more special ❤ we are all beautiful in God's eyes!!

What you must remember......they were told 18 MINUTES. That is it. Many bands were playing that day. And from first note to last note they literally were mere SECONDS over. It was an incredible performance. Speechless, is right.

We’re all gonna die one day but we lived and saw Queen and Freddie Mercury blast their way into the stratosphere for all of us. We shall not die in vain.

Live aid went live all around the world and it was a massive event on TV though the world just stopped and took a break with queen on stage.i still remember it,it was magical!❤️

Such a good set. They were geniuses in so many ways.

I love your reaction to this amazing concert! Their music is so iconic, and they ruled the world with their performance in that internationally broadcast concert that day

I remember watching it in Canada on tv. Was such a special moment knowing Freddie was owning the stage, and the crowd.

Bless, Freddie was so ill. He had awful issues with a bad throat, his doctors told him not to perform. BTW, they did one more song later on in the show.

I remember when this was on TV in Finland, live, and it was blown away. So many great performances but this one killed it. Just killed it. And Freddie had a throat infection. What a show. Once in a lifetime ✨️

30+ years gone and he is able to light your face with such joy and happiness. Thank you for sharing your beautiful reaction. You honour his memory.

When you hear of this guy for the first time. And see his stage presence, you know he's going to the top ! With a name like Freddy Mercury for sure.

Your genuine love and enthusiasm makes the whole reaction a fantastic time.Thank you

Fun reaction. Yes, the set swings from high energy to emotional. No one does it better. FYI they did an encore. Just Freddie, Brian & his 12 string. Perfection.

Freddie Mercury,,,, G.O.A.T PREACH !!!!!

Lots of great live performances that day. But, Queen stole the show!

Seriously, was this really 37 years ago. 😲 I remember this like it was yesterday. Freddie RIP you legend 🎼🎶

I grew up listening to this guys voice and music... I didn't know what I had at the time. Awesome right!!!

Nothing will beat Live Aid, the UK concert, then the USA concert. Magic times.

22 mins that changed the world

'We Are The Champions' is undoubtedly the most apt song ever for Queen! They threw down the challenge and to this day, no-one has taken it up!

I remember seeing this concert on live tv. one of the most beautiful live🤗🤗🤗

Great reaction ! He shows his power and his soft side all in this one performance love this choice !

Freddie holds the microphone and the other hand the audience.

When you are so emotionally involved with the performance it can hurt when it is over. I was at a live performance one day and after the concert nobody left until two encores which wasn't surprising and the performer left with a beautiful ballad that ended with a gentle vocal riff. The audience stayed repeating the vocal riff for twenty minutes after the concert ended because we didn't want the feeling to end. That was worth the price to be a part of.

He is the epitome of humble. A BEAUTIFUL man to behold...On the outside, he is loved for his looks and fame...On the inside, his heart and compassion compare to no other. His beauty cannot be mimicked or stolen. He doesn't even know the legend that he is- that's what makes him extraordinary

freddie was the GREATEST SHOWMAN This was live aid, i full 24 hour concert around the globe, bob geldof pulled it off, it was done in many capitaols around the world, considering there was no mobile phones, or internet, to raise money for africa. one of the greatest feats we have ever seen

I have never found anyone else that had such a perfect voice…..live performance…..we lost such a beautiful, gifted soul…we will always remember and miss you Freddie Mercury…RIP

Remember watching this live, we'll never see the likes of Queen and a few others ever again! Keep sharing that beautiful smile of yours! Wish you all the love and joy that you can handle in 2022! 🤗

The greatest performance I have ever seen by a artist !

I have watched many reaction videos of different people of today's young generation witnessing this performance for the first time. And among all of them, yours is the most genuinely joyful and emotional. Beautiful to watch. Thank you.

I watched this live on TV when I was 15. Have been a fan ever since. RIP Freddie. I’ve seen Queen and Adam twice and am going to see them twice this October. I’m an Adam Lambert fan and think he does a wonderful job fronting Queen. Loved watching this!!! Brings back memories

He was absolutely incredible, I can remember being a kid watching this live. Also, she’s absolutely beautiful ☺️

IMHO, the greatest front man and showman in Rock and Roll history. Freddie Mercury could draw in an audience with just the wave of a hand. He was a true joy to witness in concert.

I absolutely love the fact that Freddie was so much bigger than live aid he owned this audience as he did all of his crowds but Freddie had that unique ability to engage you to make himself look like a regular man in the street Freddie was a man of the people everything he did he done for his fans rip FM

The smile on your face for We will rock you and We are the Champions....just precious...keep it that way x

I grew up with queen. I never watched them live, although I always liked their music. Now that Freddie is gone, I never realised how much I appreciated his talent. He hasn’t been replaced all these years later. It’s funny how we need to lose something to see what we really had, I think he really was one of a kind, I’m happy now but I miss the early 1980s and the community spirit we had back then

Yup! That's where those two songs come from. We are the Champions. We will, We will, Rock You! My God the expression on your face is priceless. Happy New Year Morenikeji. Thank you again for such a fun to watch reaction video. You made my day!

It was particularly for Live Aid, and so he only had the 20 minutes, but WELL WORTH IT!!!!

You are so adorable!! I loved this reaction!! Queen is absolutely my favorite band and I love how you were just smiling and dancing to it and how excited you got!! You’re just so cute

My favorite baby girl! My wife gets jealous when she sees me watching your videos, but you have the best music.

I remember being sat close to the TV watching this live in 85....it felt like the whole world stopped and everyone was watching....and they were.

It gives me such a pleasure to enjoy this at our convince. Such a GREAT performer. Moe i enjoyed your reaction , with your great smile. Especially when you recognize special ones. Yes,We are the Champions can be emotional. Way to start the year.

65 yr old man moved to tears. Freddie was a loss the world will never get over.

Midge Ure never gets the credit he deserves for getting all the bands together for this show.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why queen are the greatest rock group of all time

Freddie was an entertainer as well as a performer, he loved the crowd and his energy flowed through his performance

Always a pleasure to see a true master at work! Wether you like them or hate them, nobody with a brain can deny the fact that Queen is among the best bands of all time and Freddie Mercury is and always will be a legendary front man! That man was truly born for the stage

All the bands got only 20 minute sets. I hope Freddie gets RU-vid in heaven and sees all these reactions to him and Queen so many years and decades later!!!

Thank you for the reaction! Beatiful Mercury

Don't know how I got here but found myself watching and crying along with you. What a performance and brought back memories.

90 plus thousand people in harmony, its a kind of magic

If i could travel back to 4 times in history. This day Queen Freddie Mercury gave the best performance to a enchanted crowd. Would be pic no 1

Gotta love the way you were so into this, Mo!! Shows the power of Freddie and Queen has almost 37 years after this phenomenal concert. He was the master showman, no one like him before or since!!! Your reaction was perfect, thanks for this!!!!

A happy girl 😃 Nice! Freddie one of the greatest ever. Queen my old heroes.

Hammer to Fall was the current single off their latest album at the time. It was the only current song they played. All the other songs were older hits. Great set list! Wish I had been there. 😥

Hey glamorous baby girl! For those of us who were fans of Queen prior to Live Aid, the fact that they were superb live did not come as a revelation. Yet for many it was. All the greatest acts played the concerts in London and Boston but Queen were the best. It helps that they had a lot of crowd pleasing songs that people knew as you proved. It also helps that they were accustomed to playing stadiums. And of course they had Freddie, one of the greatest, most charismatic performers of all time. We all watched that show. It was on live tv around the world. I remember it like it was yesterday. Glad you enjoyed.

An epic reaction to an epic performance.
