    Someone asked Freddie what his favourite instrument was. His response was “The audience darling!”

    Can you believe it's 39 years since that amazing global event of music and having a cause/purpose to do things for others with no malice or attempt to cause harm (see, we can come together peacefully to make this world work).

    LiveAid a charity concert to raise awareness and funds for a terrible famine in Ethiopia 🇪🇹 Africa, the idea of two British artists Bob Geldof and Midge Ure, LiveAid Wembley Stadium United Kingdom 🇬🇧 twinned with a concert in Philadelphia USA 🇺🇸 72,000 at Wembley and 92,000 at Philadelphia, both concerts first of a kind televised to nearly 2 billion people worldwide, most of the best artists in the world performing at the concerts, each act had around 22 minutes to perform, Queen came on stage and with their legendary flamboyant performance stole the show from any other artist on the day, Freddie Mercury had the crowd in the palm of his hand,I actually attended LiveAid and have fond memories of that day,all the members of Queen have written No1 hits, and all the band members attend university, Freddie has a degree in graphic design and illustration he also designed the bands logo,Sir Brian May has a degree in physics and is an astrophysicist,Roger Taylor a degree in biology, and John Deacon a degree in electronics with honours,Queens greatest hits is today still the best selling album of all time in their home country United Kingdom 🇬🇧, recently Queen have sold their huge catalog of songs to Sony for a record breaking 1.27 billion dollars, I also attended Freddie’s very last live performance in 1986 at Knebworth park UK 🇬🇧 the crowd was around 120,000 - 140,000 people, Freddie is surely missed always a legend, great reaction thanks 🙏

    75.000 people on the concert and 1.9 billion people was watching this live on tv and listening on radios. People today think Taylor Swift is big. Imagine 1.9 billion!! people listening to this before the age of internet. What could they achieve today?

    Sorry, just found you; so, I’m late to the Comment Section! I’m a 66 y/o Glamma. You seem to enjoy the background of things. And, I’m a Trivia sponge, so here goes: FUN FACTS FURST: The kisses are for his Mom who was watching him on Television.
    MATTER OF FACTS: They had just completed a Tour a month b4. So, they went & rented a Stadium to practice the performance. He ended up with a Throat Infection & the Doctor highly recommended he not do it bc he might lose his musical ability. He said no! Can you tell he had a severe throat infection? Most people think he was drinking booze from the cups bc on the piano. He’s drinking Honey & Tea. His command of the Audience was more than coincidence it was miraculous. Considering there were so many people there the sound was getting absorbed through them. So the people @ the back we’re following his hand gestures bc the actual sound hadn’t even reached them b4 the next sound was coming @ them. Go back & watch what his hands are doing & what the Audience is doing. NEXT: Radio Gaga is celebrating Radio bc M-TV is just getting started. LADY GAGA was a huge Freddie Fam growing up, so That was where she came up with HER STAGE NAME! You have to listen to the words to really understand the meaning. Most of us didn’t have a clue what a Band looked like unless we saw them in Person!
    NEXT-MICROPHONE. At sometime along the way a Microphone Stand broke, so that was the only spilt second solution they could come up with. He realized the freedom he had to move, dance, & engage the Audience.
    NEXT MICHAEL JACKSON & ELVIS CONNECTION on Song THIS THING CALLED LOVE: It was written as his homage to Elvis-Freddie was a big fan. But, he just wasn’t sure about the song bc he didn’t want to taint Elvis. SO, he played it for Michael J. (Yes, they were friends!). And Michael told him he HAD TO, he said “Freddie, you have to”! (Can’t you just see that!?).
    NEXT FREDDIE’s VOICE. HE HAD 4 extra teeth so that’s the reason he had such an overbite. He had the ability to naturally flow from Octave to Octave. It was a natural progression, for him.
    SCIENTIFICALLY: Test were done on his Voice. He was able to use his Throat muscles on either side of his vocal cords. Which is normally seen in some Opera Singers. His Vocal Range was from Low Bass F, to High Soprano F! They were extremely surprised to find out that he could go from about 92Hz to 784Hz, effortlessly! See ACTUAL REPORT BELOW:
    nyone who has listened to a Queen track knows that Freddie has a unique ability that still has not been truly replicated since. His ability to blend highs, lows and mid range notes cohesively and with immense precision. This skill was due to the fact that Freddie was able to create faster vibrato and harmonics than any other singer at the time. Not only this, he was able to shift through registers effortlessly. Although he naturally held a baritone voice, he primarily sang as a tenor and of course had no problem then shifting into soprano parts. One study on Freddie’s vocal range even confirmed that he was able to vary from about 92.2 Hz to 784 Hz, meaning he was reliably able to hit notes from the booming low of F#2 to the high pitch G5 - that covers a full three octaves!
    LEAD GUITARIST: Brian May, is playing on a Guitar he & his Father made. When he first starting to learn they were too poor to afford a high end guitar. So, they just made one! They made out of an old cabinet his mother was going to throw awayThe included some “extras” that would normally have to be separate instruments to get all those features (think Concerts when you see guitarist changing Guitars depending on the Song….that’s why he didn’t)!
    I’m sorry to take up your Valuable Time, and I thank you. You need anymore Trivia I’m your G’Ma go to. My Brain is full, especially with music!
    LAST INTERESTING INFO: When he is waving his arm it is to tell the cameramen which way he is going bc he’s moving around so much. When he kicks his legs backwards that is getting over all the cables, that are on the Stage. TV Cameras were not cordless back in the day!! And, “We Will Rock You”, is actually a Prelude to “We Are The Champions”. (It is really all 1 Song!)

    I'm thrilled when you, the younger generation, finds and loves Queen as much as I did in the 70s. We had some of the best music and concerts ever, and please continue to do reactions to Queen and the legendary frontman Freddie Mercury because they are loved by many, like you! Great reaction to a epic concert.

    You know it's funny back in the day I would play their music and family and friends would say " What the F is that?!!!. I would say it's Queen. ( Me being African American) I would say F y'all!!!". Long live the Queen.

    I posted a video summarizing the Live Aid concert. Hard to do for a show of 16 hours, but I still remember that day. Amazing concert full of stars.

    The sound is off from the video, so I had to close my eyes to listen to it. Plus, there was a skip on Lady GaGa.
