Annie Lennox is probably the one human being alive that could step into the shoes of Freddie Mercury to do this song justice - not only in terms of talent and showmanship but in terms of character too. Three of some of the most talented artists and kindest and loving people to take the stage. RIP Freddie. Rip Bowie. And treasure Annie while we have her.
And I'm crying because I want Bowie back. He was a really good artist... What do we have nowadays? There are some good bands, but honestly, they don't give me the same feelings.
1 John 2:15-17 New Living Translation 15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 16 For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever. James 4:4 New Living Translation 4 You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God?

30 years later still an unforgettable performance - great duo Lennox & Bowie and the three remaining Queen members proved in this tribute tour how great musicians they were (and still are) together.
One thing I learned from being an old roadie for Queen in the 1970's is how you can see the speed of sound. When they played huge venues like Wembley, the area is so large, the people react to the sound as they hear it, so you can see the reaction as the sound goes out from wherever the speakers were. It's like a wave spreading out. Just one thing I never thought about until I observed it from backstage.
"You can do what you want with my music but don't make me boring" - They certainly didn't do that. You can see it was sung by two true artists with love for FM.
Raised on Bowie, a Queen fan as a teenager, and was introduced to Annie Lennox by my mother when she was in the band called " The Tourists". I have truly lived.
Annie always made me think of how subtle she is with her singing, because you always know the power of her voice. But in this one, she uses all of that power! And it reaches deep!. And David....well....damn!!!. What a pair of beautiful souls on that stage!!!
Really like how classy Bowie is at the end of this, asking the crowd to applaud Annie when he is at least equally responsible for the awesomeness they have just seen
Watching in April 2023, it reminds me of the massive loss to the world and to music both Freddie and David are. Hope they’re singing together, with the angels now. Can’t work out why it’s taken me so long to find this video 🤷🏻♀️ but huge thanks to the uploader. This is a gift to the world of RUclips.
when i saw this performance i said if you want to carry on with another singer there she is right there, she had the voice the flair and the flamboyance to pull it off and a power house of a song writer in her own right, but alas it didnt happen
Outstanding performance by Lennox and Bowie. They complement each other and raise each others performance to another level. The absolute positive regard and artistic respect they have for each other is abundantly evident.
Now?! All the time I’ve been around and I just see this now? My father was a Bowie fan. I’m betting he and Bowie are up there and decided to have me come across this performance. This was fantastic. What an experience.
Y'know, no one person could ever successfully stand in for Freddie Mercury in Queen, but after watching this, I am becoming convinced that these two artists, working together, it came awfully close. Brilliant.
Quel plaisir quel bonheur quelle émotion quelle tristesse Que d'émotions mêlées pour un instant magique entre 2 stars.. Des frissons.. Merci depuis la France. Rip dear david❤

Somewhere there is a video of them practicing together, with Queen. Maybe Bowie and Brian May were hesitant to think Annie could pull it off, but half way through you could see them decide that this song would work. Magnificent..
OMG those are the performances that will stay FOREVER in us!!! What a song! What a duo! What an audience! Everything is simply PERFECT! I miss gigs like this today!
Greatest ever❤🎉 But also David Bowie and Freddie Mercury. Words cannot discribe these memories. R.I.P. David and Freddie. ❤️ And long live Annie Lennox with us. ❤️
Fcuk, what an absolute brilliant live performance! Bowie's vocals blew me away. And in the company of Annie Lennox, that is saying something. And lest we forget the backbone of it all, the brilliant Queen.
Wow, Annie Lennox she matches DB and they both make this beautiful. Artists who don't need to compete, just make things fantastic doing their own thing. Annie, loving the bladerunner eyes...
It's 2022, and this still brings tears to my eyes. Part of the soundtrack of life, and of my funeral. It's all written on Spotify. Much love from San Francisco, CA.
I remember watching the live broadcast of this and being completely blown away! It gave me chills then, and it gives me chills now. Wow… Annie Lennox is amazing. So dramatic. And Bowie rises to a new level of cool. The entire performance is so emotional and intense.
I never thought anyone could outshine Bowie, but Annie does!! I mean, she came to slay in costume, voice, makeup all wrapped up in a vocal performance that was superb.
He told her to go get something different to wear because what they had for her was drab, and she went ot the person he recommended, and just knocked it out of the park, that is why he says "where did she get that dress". He was blown away, cool to hear Annie talk about it and how intimidated she was by basically a God, but she tells how nice he is, everyone says how nice Bowie is, this is so good, she and George Michael crushed this, and David is just A God. I know how much i love his work but it is fun to see how other famous people were just in awe lol, this is fucking David Bowie lol.
RIP David Bowie (1947-2016).

I love Annie Lennox - she is brilliant singer, human being and loving person!
George Michael was excellent too.
Well said.
Y love Annie Lennox❤️❤️❤️
except for the Papaya part
And I'm crying because I want Bowie back. He was a really good artist... What do we have nowadays? There are some good bands, but honestly, they don't give me the same feelings.
sorry to say there aren't any good bands today, won't listen to the radio it's absolutely fucking crap.
Idk how they are now but Muse used to be able to absolutely slay.
I am so sorry, i never saw him live 😢
My too😢.
St. Vincent reminds me of him a lot. Also, we do still have Annie Lennox. And David Byrne hits the same feels for me. YMMV
The crowd hitting the “day day dum” and “okay” at the right time was great
Easily one of the greatest live performances in history. RIP FM, DB
Fleetwood Mac?
Easily
Nope, not bad but not stand out on the day
the genius David Bowie we miss you man!
One of the greatest performances in the history of performances.
Fucking oath!
Best comment here.
No...big NO!
Freddy Mercury at Wembley was the best in history
@@mike-kellydutkiewicz5991 Tribute performances;)
*Annie's modest bow at the end and David's humbleness has made them what they are....legendary*
David Bowie est mort 🎉😂😂
Back in the days when celebrities were incredibly talented. Freddie Mercury, David Bowie, Annie Lennox. Irreplacable.
she loves him
And who doesn't?
The king and the queen.
Wonderful.
When the crowd sings BOTH parts in harmony. That, my friend is something regal. Long Live The Queen.
And Bowie
And seeing AL and DB recognize that was priceless. Nods to the cameramen and the editor.

That was great!!!!
That was because he sent her for a new frock! Inside joke.

Побывать бы на этом Празднике жизни!!! ❤
Damn that woman can sing. The power behind her voice..
Annie Lennox KILLED this song like it was her own. Its a shame we never got an official collaboration between her and Bowie.
I worked with her backup singers. Annie is a class act and a great actress too.
Annie Lennox literally brought tears to my eyes. What a stunning and perfect performance!
still crying on his death day today 7yrs
@janicecook2612 I always get misty eyed when listening to this song. Still can't believe he's gone. 💔

I've been in love with Annie Lennox for 40 years. Scottish woman singing her heart out. Great tribute to Freddie. This is what Pop should sound like.

I actually thought it will be a sin to perform this song without FM but Annie Lennox is just breath taking!!!
Not many women come close to Annie!!!!
She is beyond the beyond (I thought she'd bite him on the neck and draw blood!)

I will always adore David Bowie! Always.
I'm considered old now and the only tattoo I have it a tribute to Bowie. He made me feel less of a freak. 😍

Outstanding performance by Lennox and Bowie. They complement each other and raise each others performance to another level. The absolute positive regard and artistic respect they have for each other is abundantly evident.
Holy wow. This still brings tears to my eyes when they sing intertwined at the end. She was magnificent in this, and he was perfect
Every time I come back. Tears...
Annie Lennox and David Bowie definitely had chemistry.
Still hard to accept he is gone
I know right? Such a perfect moment
Bowie what a legend he was 😢 so sad all the greats have all passed 😢
Now?! All the time I’ve been around and I just see this now? My father was a Bowie fan. I’m betting he and Bowie are up there and decided to have me come across this performance. This was fantastic. What an experience.

wow I didn't imagine there could be such a powerful Queen performance without Mercury. Annie Lennox made them justice. And Bowie of course.
One of the GREAT Performance 😊😊
In the history of Rock and Roll
Exquisite indeed.
Teardrops rolling down on my face every time I see this again...and again...and again...! What a performance!!!
Thirty tears since this performance and it still moves me
The Chemistry between all them together on stage is out of this universe all together!! 🤌👌👏
god i miss Bowie and Freddy. thankfully their music lives on. fantastic job by Annie.
I am an old. I remember this, when it happened. It was a miracle. It still is.
Love Annie Lennox and David Bowie enough in their own right, but to have them together doing this song is music legend!
Annie Lennox is such an original... love her...
Bowie Lennox you are music,thank you for a lifetime and more..
Quel plaisir quel bonheur quelle émotion quelle tristesse
Que d'émotions mêlées pour un instant magique entre 2 stars.. Des frissons.. Merci depuis la France. Rip dear david❤
Chills from this. Annie Lenox is supreme with David. RIP David. Listen to Annie Winter Wonderland...magical.
Probably two of the greatest vocalists ever. Unlimited range, could sing across almost all genres. Respect.

How we miss you David.
Tears of sadness and joy, this performance makes me miss what we had , what should have been, what will be . There is a hole in music

30+ years still getting goose bumps on this one !
It’s an amazing tribute to any songwriter when 6 notes generates such a massive reaction from the crowd! ❤❤
agree - but I think its seven....
OMG those are the performances that will stay FOREVER in us!!! What a song! What a duo! What an audience! Everything is simply PERFECT! I miss gigs like this today!
😭😭😭😍😍😍 incomprehensible emotions. so everything inside turns over! These are angels!❤
Just beautiful
What I can say, keeping in silence and listening that master piece, if the song can shining, a star is born, unforgettable.
One of the greatest live performances of all time!
This is the GREATEST performance of a song ever ❤️❤️❤️
Greatest ever❤🎉 But also David Bowie and Freddie Mercury. Words cannot discribe these memories. R.I.P. David and Freddie. ❤️ And long live Annie Lennox with us. ❤️
My all time favourite song duo ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Quel Duo !
J’ai les larmes aux yeux à chaque écoute de cette merveilleuse prestation.
Quelle présence et prestance !
Merci 🙏

Couldn't take my eyes off of David Bowie...Superb performance from both. And the fabulous Queen. Regards from Ireland 🇮🇪💚
What a song! What a duo! What an audience! Everything is simply PERFECT!🤩
First view. Amazing. These two had vocal chemistry. Miss you David. Glad you were here during my lifetime.
Fcuk, what an absolute brilliant live performance!
Bowie's vocals blew me away.
And in the company of Annie Lennox, that is saying something.
And lest we forget the backbone of it all, the brilliant Queen.
I want to go back to that time 😥😥😥😥
That voice! That presence! That dress! Exquisite indeed!
No me canso de ver este vídeo. Una maravilla.

Epic. True justice to the original. Bless all three. The art will be timeless.

No one can replace Freddie Mercury. Not even the presence of David Bowie can do justice to the original version.
We just dnt have enough creative souls nowadays in 2023...
Annie is just out of this world , utterly, utterly stunning ❤❤
Уже давно нет их в живых,а песни живут в нашей памяти и сердцах
