Freddie was asked during an interview “what instruments do you play?” He answered “The audience darling!” And he did it…
RIP sweet Freddy love always!
Thank you for doing the whole concert. Queen spent a lot of time deciding which songs to do and in what order. When you watch the whole concert you really do get the flow that they had intended to deliver. You also get to see how Freddie works the stage during a concert. It just makes sense to do the show as a single unit. The build up and the climax just makes it so much better. The story of the mic is a simple one. At a show, the mic broke away from the stand. In Freddie's typical professional character, he just continued with the mic without the bass. He liked it because he was able to move around so much more without the weight of the base. From that time on, Freddie carried the mic. Even when the cords were eventually removed from the mics, Freddie continued to carry the post attached to his mic. Freddie even said he didn't like when he lost the cord, that it was a big adjustment for him to have to figure out what todo with that hand now that he didn't have to hold the cord. Set List: "Bohemian Rhapsody", "Radio Ga-Ga", Call and Response (Ay-Oh), "Hammer To Fall", "Crazy Little Thing Called Love", "We Will Rock You", "We Are The Champions."
Any other artist, even in current times, who used a half mic would risk being accused of copying Freddie, and who would want to be compared with him regarding performance style, voice or charisma? Decades went by before artists started covering Queen songs. Who could do them better?
Lol the fact they they (mainly Freddie & Brian) didn’t get tangled up was a feat in and of itself.
Yea this one deserves a full viewing all at one….including the encore 😉
What you missed is Freddy Mercury and Brian May were asked to do an encore with "Is This The World We Created?", a fitting song for Live Aid.
The shortest 20 minutes in the musical history that rocked the world.
That bottomless mic was a part of Freddie's body 🤣, no one else would been so authentic with that.
As a massive fan of Jimi Hendrix, Freddie taught himself to play the guitar, but after some point he gave up on the idea. In live situations he only played rhythm guitar on Crazy Little Thing Called Love. (That song was born in Freddie's bathtube in Munich in10 minutes.Really.) Brian told about Freddie: He was very good on the guitar, very unorthodox, he had a frenetic energy on the guitar.
They blew all the other bands away, this is one of the best live videos ever. RIP FREDDIE. We all sat in front of our TV for hours watching all the bands and when Queen came on we were singing along and clapping. Other bands Madonna, Paul McCartney, U2, Led Zeppelin and so many others.
Best 20 min of all time ❤thanks
Your are welcome.. like and sub for more
Each band in Live Aid only had 20 minutes to perform. Queen brought their performance in at 20 minutes and 10 seconds!! What precision! What timing! What hard work to shorten each song just enough to fit in 6 songs in 20 minutes!! No one else on stage that day did that. And NO ONE else involved the audience the way Queen did! INCOMPARABLE QUEEN!! INCOMPARABLE FREDDIE!!
What made me watch this in a new perspective, was until the movie, I did not know this was the "first" time his Father ever saw him perform, his Dad I don't believe was very supportive in his sons choice of career, not knowing what a super star he really was or how loved he truly was by his fans and just how much the band loved their fans, until this performance. He got his Dad to watch it because he made it clear to his Dad that it was giving help to people in need which his Father was very big on.
This performance is even more impressive when you realize that Freddie had laryngitis the week before. His doctor recommended that he skip the concert and rest his voice, but he ignored the advice and went on to make rock history. Another interesting video to watch is "The Story of Queen at Live Aid". The crowd was happy but surprised to see Queen on stage; since they had signed on late, they weren't on the advertised list of performers.
The people see the show live Aid not fan of Queen and know the Song of Queen this Is a magic
you should check out Freddy and Montserrat singing opera. it's beautiful. Barcelona, Golden Boy, and How can I go on are a few
The fact that Freddie & Brian didn’t get tangled up was a talent in and of itself lol
Freddie was very aware of where he was on stage. Although I have to wonder if he ever accidentally hit one of the guys with his mic.
Top 5 moments in music history. They stole the event an the event had E V E R Y O N E. If you lived thru this and saw it live you know how amazing it was.
Sit Dr Brian May made his guitar when he was a teenager with help from his father. It is name Red Special. He still uses it. Brian May, although not knighted, was given a Commander of the Most Excellent Order back in 2005 for his musical contributions. He can now be called Sir Brian May.
His dad was an engineer
I think it was more that Brian helped his dad!
But its great that thry did this
you can only be sir if you have been knighted CBE isn't above that
Watching Freddie perform NEVER gets old! I wish he was still with us cause there is no telling how much greater he would be. The sky was the limit for Freddie. He could do it all. ❤
It actually isn't a bottomless microphone , it is a Microphone BOOM ARM. It is used for recording drum Hi Hats, and many singers use it on stage because the arm "He is Holding " connects to the upright microphone stand with an adjustable clamp and allows the main microphone stand base , to be placed out of the way of the performer with the boom arm sticking out so as not to interfere with playing guitar etc...
40% of the world watched them perform during this live aid concert. They blew everyone away. The whole band was amazing. Freddie’s favorite instrument was the audience though he could play all musical instruments and write he was a born showman. Btw Freddie had severe laryngitis during this concert but chose to sing anyway.
His singing was fire and his piano playing was second to none he was classed as a musical genius in the eighties he could do so much with lyrics and change his vocal ability depending on the song Absolutely amazing man. This was the biggest concert of 1985 with all the great bands like wham and Freddie doing a tribute with bob geldof for live aid 🥰❤️
Once again, another stellar reaction. If you want to see one of Freddie’s most passionate vocals & Brian’s hauntingly beautiful guitar, check out White Queen at Odeon Hammersmith. Of course they all contributed to this performance, but Freddie and Brian really stand out.
I love this concert and never get tired of it!! I will let everyone else tell you about all the wonderful things about this event!! Queen stole the show for sure. Thanks for the amazing reaction
Thanks for sharing!!
Somebody calls Bohemian Rhapsody the second national anthem in UK -and everybody can sing it! Freddie uses the mike as a prop. all members of Queen are multiistrumentalists. And composers - the only one that rarely sings is John Deacon , the others are lead singers in their own bands and have solo carriers as well. Roger made an album 'Outsider' under lock down where he sings and play all the instruments!! And in "Crazy little thing called love" - the title you asked for - Brian plays 3 guitars - first the 12 stringed acoustic guitar - then something - a black Stratocaster?? and then his homebuilt "Red Special" that is by his side since he built it with his father at about 17 years old. We will rock you was written by Brian to give the crowd an opportunity to participate in the concert - and actually it should have no instruments - only clapping and stamping. Now you only need to - and I urge you to - listen to one of the last songs in the evening - when Brian and Freddie performs "Is this the world we created"? - it seems to be fitting as closing to a concert collecting money to help the starving people in Ethiopia. You can find it somewhere else on CZcams . Thank you for your reaction. By the way David Bowie and Elton John was there as well one said "you bastards" the other said How shall anybody beat that - or something like that.
72,0000 people at Wembley, another 100,000 in Philadelphia, and 1,2 billion watching on TV globally. The Olympics have 3 satellites...Live Aid had 13. I wasn't a Queen fan at all, but after that day..I was lol! The world for Africa!
I remember it was very hot that day in Wembley Stadium July 13th 1985 but it was worth it, best day in my life! 👏👏🇳🇱
Freddie wrote Bohemian Rhapsody; Roger wrote Radio Ga Ga, Brian wrote Hammer To Fall, Freddie wrote Crazy Little Thing Called Love, Brian wrote We Will Rock You and Freddie wrote We Are The Champions. They did not put one of the many songs John wrote in the set...and they say he was fine with it cause their musical message needed to satisfy a world-wide audience. (John's "Another One Bites The Dust' is even a No. 1 hit for Queen) . Queen is in so many ways, a great group of guys.. Hey, I enjoyed your beautiful reaction - thanks much.
Before there was Queen, Freddie performed with a British band called "Ibex" later renamed "Wreckage" out of Liverpool. During a performance, he pulled to remove the mic from the stand but it was stuck. So he pulled really hard and the mic stands separated. As a performer, he continued on with the performance using the mic with the half-mic stand attached and actually found he liked it. This mic stand gave him a prop to work with on stage (it was a baton, a guitar, a sword, an exercise bar, and yes, sometimes a penis).
Freddie was always agile on stage. He managed to avoid all of the wires that were on the stage floor, especially Brian's guitar chord. Brian moved around on stage while playing his guitar (which I suspect is much more difficult than chewing gum and walking at the same time) but seldom gave any thought to where his chord was. Freddie managed to dance around the stage and avoid not only his own chord but Brian's and John's while maintaining the beat.
List of Queen's performance:
1. Bohemian Rhapsody (just the ballad and guitar sections)
2. Radio Gaga
3. Freddie's call and response with the audience
4. Hammer To Fall
5. Crazy Little Thing Called Love
6. We Will Rock You (just the first verse and guitar solo)
7. We Are The Champions
At the end of We are the Champions the video skipped ahead a little bit. I don’t know why but that’s why it was a little awkward at the end 😊 I never get tired of this performance ❤ There were more bands than I can name. Elton John, Def Leppard, U2 And my brain is freezing up on me I can’t remember who else was there 🤔
For some reason some of the video of the concert is skipping but if he went back about 20 sec it would be there.
Was at that 'Live Aid Concert' Freddie smashed it 😍
Really? Wow...that must have been some experience
The Best ❤ 🇬🇧
Thanks for your wonderful Queen reaction! I'm very happy to enjoy with you this magnificent piece of Queen history! I'm only very sad because lately all the final of We are the champions is cutting in the sensational end.
Somebody knows why? Is the CZcams that made this? Is a pity, I'm very sad with that!
It's not cut if reacting to the one from their own channel, and then there are two extended versions.
The really long one have the encore with Is this the world we created too.
And it have backstage clips in the beginning too and Smith and Jones brilliant introduction of the band.
At an early Queen concert Freddie was having trouble adjusting the mic, and yanked it a bit too hard, it came away from the stand, He carried on singing and kept using it that way from then on.
yes but it was with Ibex before Queen it hadn't been fitted properly so he decided to keep it as a gimmick
The main point being Freddie couldn't stand still on stage even if his life depended on it, the half mike gave him a prop to keep his hands occupied.
Wow 🥰 beautiful sweet Freddie ❤️ the most amazing twenty minutes ever 🤩 liked subscribed 😁
I have always loved Queen. They are awesome. Have you watched the movie Bohemian Rhapsody. If you haven't you really need to.
You are very perspective of Freddie! He is the greatest singer of all time. As you go further into this band, you will find so many treasures along the way. Soooo many great songs and then towards the end of his life, Freddie started a brilliant ride in opera. It will blow your mind. He is so talented I don't think anyone can compete. Gone too soon. Freddie fan forever....Kaye in Kentucky.
Have you seen Queen in Montreal live in 1981 performing the song, "Someone To Love"....
czcams.com/video/rLVBpPTd-Xs/video.html thats the link.. did a reaction on it..
Having 60k plus fans in front of me I'm crapping my drawers
Queen does it effortlessly
Six months prior to LIve Aid Queen performed in front of over 250k fans at the first Rock In Rio festival so the size of the crowd at Wembley was small in comparison. Queen were already used to playing in front of huge crowds whereas most of the acts that performed at Live Aid weren't. For Queen it was just another show, of one which they stole.
The songs you didn’t know were “The. Hammer Will Fall” and the Elvis song Freddie performed with the guitar “Crazy Little Thing Called Love”.
Always love watching this. This was the whole concert. The songs you didn't recognize was Hammer to fall, absolutely love this song, and Crazy little thing called love ❤️. You should watch the movie can answer some questions. I would love for you to react to Best Friend and Another one bites the dust
i dont mean to be pedantic but this is the Queen part. The full concert went on all day in uk and usa. This is the best live rock permance in history. enjoy. Early in his career, freddie has a problem with his mic stand and broke it pulling the mic out. He continued to use the mic in that condition talling everyone it was his gimmick. song list is Bo Rhap, Lady GAGA, Hammer to Fall, This thing called love ( influenced by his love of Elvis), We will Rock You and We are the champions. He also sang the last song of the show later in the evening with Brian playing. Song was called Is this the world we created.
Freddie wouldn't consider himself a guitarist as such but was above learner level, he taught himself.
CLTCL he wrote on guitar and plays rhythm on the track.
he also wrote ogre battle on guitar Brian was surprised he wrote a heavy riff for it
Freddie later also wrote the heavy riff for bohemian rhapsody on guitar
a few others but I'm not sure on his songs Brian wrote the solo but Freddie wrote the other guitar parts but normally on piano
love of my life Freddie wrote parts on guitar but Brian then transcribed the entire composition to suit the 12 string acoustic and just the two of them performed it live
Actually they have choreographed this performance - - to know exactly when they had to finish - - the electricity would disappear after 20 min. - so the mikrophones would not work - and the lights would go.
Freddie was told by his Doctor not to sing because of a throat infection but Freddie did it any way.
Freddie’s first show he couldn’t get the mike off the stand. It became his thing to use the mike with part of the stand like a stage prop.
The Bottomless or baseless microphone DOES have a story....early, early days performing with Queen, Freddie accidentally had a microphone stand mishap where the microphone malfunctioned and it came apart on its own. Freddie didn't skip a beat, just ignored it and acted like nothing went wrong. From then on, he chose to use the microphone that was on purpose and it became a kind of trademark of his. FYI, in the movie Bohemian Rapsody, they depict it incorrectly! Falsely. Your reaction here is awesome. I enjoyed your reaction (s) very much. Good job.
Thanks Susanna..means alot coming from you
Typo, not Coreys...cords! sorry about that
When Queen started out they didn't have any money and the mic stand broke. The band couldn't afford a new one and so Freddie made a prop out of it. Now he has the mic stand sawed off and still uses it as a prop.
Fastest 20 mins of your life.
Sorry I'm commenting so much...David Bowie performed next after Queen at Live Aide and he said, " how do you follow that?!!!" Elton John performed that day and has said, "Queen stole the show". Madonna performed. oh, Queen was a last minute addition....they were late to commit for a reason I don't know....maybe Freddie's health.
It's fine Susanna ..please feel free amd saying whatever you have to say under the post..I am actually learning a lot from all these comments
They were late on the bill because they just got back from a huge tour and was only home like 2-3 weeks. No one knew if they would be back in time. The ticket didn’t have Queen listed and they were worried it wasn’t a Queen crowd, but as you saw every crowd is a Queen crowd. A different Queen ruled England for 20 minutes that day! It was said over 2 billion people watched Live Aid and was the largest TV broadcast in history for that time period. That 20 minutes is considered one of-the best live concert in history. Queen was magic, those 4 men made music together like no other, from Brian’s red special guitar to Deacy’s amp the group was unsurpassed. Everyone of the band has written number one songs, the talent was never ending. I am so grateful that this concert was broadcast like it was so everyone has been memorized.
@@nancyblumberg4612 thank you! So interesting! I'm glad you took the time to fill in some blanks. I am one of many who love Queen.
@@PhiliminizzyReacts thank you for commenting. I have a smile on my face.
@@susannalavallee2348 Thank you for the kind words I am crazy over them. I am trying to learn all I can. Welcome to Queen crazy club. Lol
That skip at the end is unfortunate. Really ruins the crescendo of their set.
I didn't skip the end..that's how it was from the link I chose..sorry
@@PhiliminizzyReacts All good. I wasn’t accusing you of the skip. I saw that same skip on another reactor’s channel. Figured it was the video chosen.
Queen sang one more song during Live Aid finale. It was "Is This the World We Created...?".
I saw an interview where Freddie said, "10 years ago, I knew 10 Corey's on the guitar. Ten years later, I know 10 cords on the guitar," Then he smiled huge.
