'It was the perfect stage for Freddie, the whole world'

I was at Live Aid in 1985. I remember that performance. Being in the audience, it was electric. Freddie and Queen owned that stadium and the concert for those minutes. Here we are 37 years later praising a 22 minute performance. Why? Because it was Epic. So glad I had the privilege to be there. That is a treasure for life.

This video missed out one major asset, the band's sound engineer. Most bands were used to concert halls, but Queen had been playing stadiums. As Queen walked on their sound engineer changed all the settings, whacked up the volume, and set the standard that remains to this day.

Queen's drummer, Roger Taylor, has often said that when people call Freddie Mercury the best showman, it makes him angry. He doesn't want them to forget that Freddie was a Great musician!

Live Aid was a great concert but what people need to know is that at every Queen concert Freddie gave his all and was always able to make the fans jaw drop. Freddie was the best musician/ stage performer EVER!

I was there, not too far from the front right of the stage. The U2 performance was incredible, but the crowd were leaping up and down with there U2 banners, which was a little scary! Then Queen came out, and it was completely different. Never before or since have I seen a band, or a performer take control of a crowd like that. Everyone was hung on every note, every word, and Freddy had us all in in the palm of his hand - as you can see in the video. I'm not sure if it was charisma or something else, but it was another whole level of entertainment. Unforgettable.

Despite what music insiders and so forth might have thought, Queen were clearly incredibly popular even before this "comeback" concert.
Those 72000 people out in the audience didn't learn the lyrics to all those songs 5 minutes before the show. They were singing along the entire time.

For 20 minutes, the world was ruled by a QUEEN!!!

To this day you can stomp twice on a stage and you'll see kindergartners clap in time on that next beat. Nothing will ever compare.

Queen rehearsed their set and fine tuned it to perfection. Most acts hardly bothered with rehearsals. It also helped that the band had often played large audiences. Queen were (and remain) the ultimate live act.

I saw Queen four times in the 80s - the Live Aid performance was a snippet of how they ALWAYS performed. Mercury is a legend: he invigorated the audience from the moment he walked on stage to his final bow. The songs were anthemic, often amusing and there was rarely a song performed by the band that the audience didn't love. And here's another reason why the Queen shows worked - Brian May made sure his guitar rifts could be sung along to, so that with Mercury's engagement with the audience and May's singalong guitar solos, there was never a pause or excuse NOT to be involved. Pure magic.

I was there! The concert was amazing. Just when you thought the music and atmosphere couldn't get any better - Queen came on stage. Everything just went off the scale.
It was like Queen were part of the crowd and played WITH the crowd. Everyone else just play FOR the crowd.

There will never be another Freddie Mercury in my lifetime, or perhaps EVER. He was the ultimate musician, bitchin vocals and master showman.

Queen practiced and practiced and practiced to time everything down to the second in their 20 minute set. Roger Taylor keep the whole band synched to a mind blowing level with the drum lead. The band as a whole really knew timing and synchronization extremely well. And then there's Freddy. What an amazing showman and singer he was. You didn't just watch him. The audience became an integral part of the show. Queen is what professional artistry truly means.

Queens’ performance at Live Aid (1985) was undisputed as the best performance ever and forever by any human band❤❤❤❤❤

As a young student I camped out all night in the streets of Manchester with hundreds of others to get tickets for me and my sister to Live Aid in Wembley and it was truly one if the best and most unforgettable days of my life! I still get shivers...The atmosphere was electric from start to finish & all the performances were amazing but Queen stood out as absolutely outstanding! Freddy was so totally in his element- it was incredible. I always love hearing their performance being referred to as the greatest live rock performance of all time... and I'm thrilled I was there to witness that bit of history in the making!!🤩

Freddie never wanted to be just another rock star, he wanted to be a legend. And he became one!

It was a great day, I was there. It was up and down depending on the artists. There were so many, coming on, singing one or two tunes, some surprised us, some disappointed us and then Queen happened!!! It truly blew us all away. Everyone, and there was a huge selection of varying fans there, came together. We were the centre of the universe for about 15 minutes!
