  • David Bowie performed at Live Aid in front of 72,000 people in Wembley Stadium, London on the 13th July, 1985. He was interviewed right after the show by Paul Gambaccini.
    The event was organised by Sir Bob Geldof and Midge Ure to raise funds for the Ethiopian famine disaster. Broadcast across the world via one of the largest satellite link-ups of all time, the concerts were seen by around 40% of the global population.

    Live aid should be in history lessons

      Totally agree. I was just saying within the last week, that there should definitely be things taught about the AIDS crisis.. I myself, mostly learned about it from vh1 and other networks' retrospective tv specials, about past years in general matters &/or 80s music eras. And obviously a lot because of, -- from hearing about Freddie Mercury's struggles in the late 80s.
      But if it weren't for tv, I wouldn't know much at all, about things like that. Pretty sad..
      And obviously there are still some people, who still strugge with AIDS, so.. There's definitely that, too.

      The charm about the 1985 show was how unorganised it was, yet they pulled it off. The fact that nothing had been done on that scale before, in terms of acts and broadcast range, also added to that beauty.

      Sam Riddell 💁🏾‍♀️ They did and it was Live 8 held in 2005 (Live Aid's 20th anniversary). You're right in that there of course was no Freddie Mercury for obvious reasons, but it appears that George Michael nor David Bowie were on the bill for this one. Pink Floyd have been dubbed the best act for this event✌🏾. ultimateclassicrock.com/live-8-bands/

    They did do another one in 2005, but Bowie had just had a heart attack. His last PUBLIC performance was on cbs Fashion Rocks in late 2005, but he & Alicia Keys did two Private benefits for hunger relief in 2006-and those were his his final times performing live. He & Bono were good friends, and famine relief was Bowie's main choice of cause. 💗

      Nathan You forgot Live 8 in 2005 with McCartney, U2, A-ha, Duran Duran, Alicia Keys, Coldpaly, Maraiah Carey, Elton John, Madonna, Roxy Music, Sting, Dido, The Who and many others. It ended with the last Pink Floyd concert in their original lineup after 24 years.

    • @bo8fett2
      @bo8fett2 4 года назад +5

      Alex 080267 In all honesty for me Live 8 doesn’t compare to it’s predecessor. The atmosphere, tone and aesthetic doesn’t equate to the 1985 show. For every new addition to Live 8, a great one was missing; from (obviously Queen) Dire Straits to Status Quo, even Bowie. Not trying to say Live 8 is bad; there wasn’t as much tension (I guess) or excitement second time round. Furthermore no one really cares about Live 8, as Live Aid is a Woodstock for a new generation and it’s legacy shines on.
      Then again this coming from a person who loves all kinds of rock/pop from the 60’s-80’s (of which Live Aid featured). I couldn’t care less for artists like Snoop Dog, Coldplay or The killers. So your opinion is probably correct.

      @@samriddell5982 True, Live 8 in 2005 was a bit of a bloated mess and anything equivalent these days would be absolutely awful. The really great artists these days are slightly underground with the low quality and popular stuff right at the surface - a current day Live Aid is too depressing to think about.
      As an aside, the aim of such a concert in present times would have to be about helping people in the UK rather than Africa, so that tells another story about progress in the last 35 years.
