This is one of the most iconic performances by a band, ever. Freddie Mercury demonstrated his incredible voice and ability to hold an audience, and the band played impeccably.
I was lucky enough to have been at Live Aid in 1985, and there is no doubt Queen were the standout performance of the whole day.

To the young lady's dad who introduced her to Queen,thank you sir,it's thanks to people like you their music will go on and on.
Watched in on TV from start to finish brilliant day
I'm so glad young people are learning about queen...to keep their music alive for the future
There is a recent interview with Roger Taylor he said that the sound was so bad on stage that they couldnt hear each other. He said it was all done by body language, eye contact and memory. Which makes it even more remarkable.
I didn't know that - thank you. Definitely a remarkable performance
Illustrates how professional they were and how tight the band was. They had rehearsed the set to get the timings correct. You can actually see the red light coming on just as they hit the last note of the set. Remarkable!
He was there! WOW . . .wish they had listened to and critiqued more. But this was wonderful.
I was yes, and I still remember it. In the future, I want to review some of the other bands that played. Thank you for your comment
Love seeing the young woman appreciating queen. It is iconic and she thinks so too!!
Her father brought her up on good music
Dont mean to be disrispectful to younger generations nor i want to underestimate them but this young lady here seems smarter than the average teens around day.
She is pretty smart to be fair. Thank you.
My thoughts also
BTW…
The evening Encore that was performed by Freddie & Brian:
“Is This The World We Created?”
…IS also on RUclips; the video is on the official Live Aid channel.
Thank you. I'll take a look

For me the real FAB FOUR 👑
The Real Fab Four will always be The Beatles - The greatest band of all time. But Queen were good too, just not in the same league as The Beatles. But no one is.
makes a nice change to hear not just from someone who was there, react to this - but to remind people and educate others as to the purpose behind this historic event.
Thank you. I think reminding people of what it was about was important, so many don't remember that part
Both of you do this really intelligently you understand it ...i remember watching it live snd seeing the works tour in Birmingham 1984
Very kind words - thank you. I never got to see Queen before Live Aid unfortunately
Finally, a decent review ;)
Thank you
To give people some idea just how good Queen was that day the legendary David Bowie who was on next after Queen was heard by a reporter to exclaim "how the fuck am i supposed to follow that?"
And Elton John said, “You Bastards, you stole the show.” 😂
Great reaction mon braves, keep up the grand work you two !
Thank you so much
What a wonderful story❤❤❤❤
Freddie Mercury ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you
Mostrei para minhas filhas esse show do Queen,elas se emocionaram .
Thank you, it was an incredible performance
Top 3 singers of all time. Especially in rock...
Steve Perry, Robert Plant, singer for Boston, etc.
Yes I was at LiveAid too and have so many amazing memories of that day, if I remember correctly the tickets were around £14.50 and of course no mobile Phones,I attended many Queen concerts throughout the late 70s, and the 80s, Queen at Knebworth Park 1986 is a special memory too as it was the very last time Freddie performed live, back up bands Status Quo and Big Country, crowds at Knebworth estimated to be around 120,-140,000 people,yes so many awesome memories, great reaction thanks 🙏
Thanks for the comment. I thought the tickets were £25 but maybe that was with a booking fee. I only ever saw Queen at Live Aid, not sure why as I went to lots of gigs. It was an amazing day.
Live Aid was held simultaneously at Wembley Stadium in London, attended by about 72,000 people, and John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia, attended by 89,484 people. one-third of the global population tuning into a TV broadcast at the same time. That's what happened on July 13, 1985, when 1.9 billion people watched musicians perform in London and Philadelphia to raise money for famine-stricken Ethiopians.
I didn't realise it was as high as 1.9 billion, thank you.
Bloody articulate kids.
I had pleasure of seeing Queen, live here in Auckland, a few months b4 this...
I was always a fan of their music, but somehow never got to see them until Live Aid. From footage I've seen they were always great live
@@BritishDadReacts-ui4jx they were very very awesome live aye, probably as good as there records, not long b4 this, i even more spoilt, Dire Straits, a couple years b4, another favourite band...
@@rico-zaindentiana-mariepou4446 Dire Straits also played at Live Aid. I feel lucky to have been to gigs where the purpose was not to film it
Oh wow how lucky you were!! Jealous 😂. I would have loved to have been there!! Been a queen fan for over 50 years now!! ❤😊
Yeah, I was very lucky. It was a truly memorable day
I watched and recorded from start to finish both the British and American Live Aid
I hope you still have those recordings, it's an event that will never be forgotten
@@BritishDadReacts-ui4jx
Yes but on VHS!
I’m so glad I grew up with Queen rather than AI and all the things they do now to ‘ perfect’ music
FYI, 6 months prior to Live Aid, Queen performed to a crowd of over 250,000 at the Rock in Rio festival in Brazil so performing to 72.000 at Wembley was a walk in the park for them.
Wow, that's some crowd in Brazil. I think there was some pressure with Live Aid as the estimate for watching was about 1 billion I believe
@@BritishDadReacts-ui4jxbelieve it or not the final “guesstimate” was 1.9 billion . So somewhere in there is the truth ! Great review !!
@@JaneRtn wow, didn't realise it was that big. Thank you for watching
How could i enjoy it, if you cut it short
Apologies. There are lots of videos that show the whole of the Queen performance, but I take your point. I'm new to RUclips really so, being honest, I'm not sure how useful/valuable my insights are
It's worth noting, taking a close look at the crowds of tens of thousands....it's hard to find obese kids, it's hard to find anyone covered in tattoos and piercings, there certainly were a few but in general it's a different type of person there in the crowds.
Freddie was the epitome of front men. He had complete and total control of that crowd. And those attending the Philadelphia show were equally mesmerized even though they were watching on a big screen.
This was truly a once in a lifetime event from the crowds, the bands, the technical aspects, everything.
Bob Geldof organized the impossible.
Yeah it was different times then; trends change I guess. Freddie was incredible, as always. Interesting to know that even people in Phily were impacted by the performance. It was a once in a lifetime. There was an attempt to repeat it in the UK many years after but it wasn't quite up to the mark of the original
Not many people can say they were at Live Aid. About 70,000.
That's true, not sure myself but about 70,000 sounds about right
@@BritishDadReacts-ui4jx72,000! I believe a ticket cost £25!
72,000, and £25 per ticket!!!!!!
@@viviennerose6858 thank you
Blink twice if you are in danger
Love you.sory.
My br0
Thank you for watching
Are you doing the rest of the video as well?
I hadn't planned to as many others on RUclips have covered their whole performance. I'm new to RUclips so am unsure as to how useful my insights are; hence I only covered the first part of their performance
and what instrument are you playing,Freddie?... im playing the audience,my dear...
I've always thought of the biggest star not to do live aid, and I think it's got to be Rod Stewart
I think you might be right. He was huge at that time
HE WAS THERE???
Yes I was
Це правда як що ще це до нвач
Here's something I've always been curious to ask someone who was there. David Bowie was the unfortunate one to have to follow "the greatest live set ever", everyone knew at the moment that Queen had stolen the show. How well did he do, how did the crowd receive his performance?
From my memory he went down very well, he was still a big star at the time
You cut it off by half the show
I did yes. There are lots of youtube videos showing the whole performance so I just wanted to give a flavour of what they did. Maybe I should have shown it all, and provided more info about how it was to be there - thank you
Voice output is too low. Can not hear .
Thank you. It is normally better, this was the first time with 2 people and I'm just an amateur. But thank you for pointing it out
I was there too you know. Didnt like it. Didnt like queen myself
Sorry you didn't like it. We had a fabulous day
Can’t please everyone ….And since 1985 you are the only person I have heard that didn’t like it …beats me why you are on here if you don’t like queen… there are musicians I don’t like but never feel the need to go on a video and leave a negative comment ….
