Like most Americans I am a fan of the British band Queen. Today I am very excited to see them perform Bohemian Rhapsody live at Live Aid. If you enjoyed the video feel free to leave a comment, like, or subscribe for more!

You don't need autotune when you have that level of talent. Freddie was one of a kind, the like of which we'll never see again

[marybolletta]

Freddie was pure talent. No need for production or auto tune. When music was true music. And a master of crowd interaction

Queen saved the show. The donations flooded in when Queen took the stage. The greatest live performance in the history of rock.

[christineprice]

There will never be another Queen. He was one of a kind, truly an entertainer

[andrewmurrell]

I was there and Queen stole the whole show. Totally awesome, something I will never forget.

As someone said, Freddie a microphone in one hand & 72, 000 people in the other.

Freddie did this with a bad throat infection and his Dr advised him not to, but in the words of his own immortal song ‘The Show Must Go On.’ This was watched by billions around the world and Queen stole the show. You really need to react to the whole set. You won’t regret it.

Queen was the best band EVER. Their versatility is unmatched, and Freddie was a magical being.

72, 000 people at Wembley. No sound check before going on, and the crowd were not all Queen fans (lots of other acts performing on the day) yet Freddie Mercury commanded them all! Freddie had a throat infection that day and was advised by doctors not to perform...and he STILL nailed it!! Queen stole the entire show!! And as for the guitarist...not bad for a home made instrument!!

I was there that day nearly 40 years ago with work colleagues and my girlfriend at the time. On a day of days Freddie and Queen smashed the front and back doors in. Beyond compare. I get quite emotional watching that video from time to time, great memories. He may be gone but he will never be forgotten. Cheers

You NEED to see the whole set of queen at Wembley. Tyler, it's amazing. Even if you don't post it just enjoy it.

[OlenaBandiak]

The greatest showman that ever lived. There will never be another Freddie Mercury. Taken from the world too soon. Rest in eternal peace Freddie.

[ruddyy]

Freddy was once asked what his favourite instrument to play was. He replied back with - the crowd

[mainfish]

There may be kings of pop, rock and roll but there will only ever be one queen!!

[beng]

Still sends a shiver down my spine... RIP Freddie. 😢

1.5 billion people watched Live Aid on TV in 1985. 72, 000 people were at Wembley Stadium in London and 89, 000 people watched packed in at John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia.

[dazsmith]

You REALLY, REALLY need to see the whole set!!

[PollyWilko]

Live Aid was incredible, and this performance by Queen and the amazing Freddie Mercury is often quoted as one of the best rock performances of all time! Queen had 20 minutes and totally smashed it!

I grew up listening to them in England and they’re my all time favourite band. 👑

Total chills! No one, just no one like Freddie.
