The whole world was almost big enough a stage for Freddie.

George Brady

Amy, thank you so much for all of your well-observed comments, especially those from a performers perspective, and your inspirational comments about the continuing state of the world. My Christmas Wish for you is that you will now go off on your own, put your headphones on, turn off your technical assessments, and play again this magnificent condensed concert, and allow the dynamic, crackling electricity of the performance to wash over you uninterrupted and without distraction (Vlad must watch Liesel, etc). You won't be sorry! Merry Christmas, Amy, Vlad, and Liesel!

Rea Lavi

Best frontman in rock.. exhibit A

Tracey Baron

For future Queen listens please include '39, Teo Torriatte, Dragon Attack and Mother Love? All essential Queen listens that went unheard the first time around :)

David Taylor

Great job Amy. That was great seeing you being such a fan girl. Not that anyone else will notice.😳Lol Yes, I'm sure he was already feeling symptoms of what would eventually take his life. Sad subject for another time. .. I would say Freddie's performing style is gracefully flamboyant, and naturally theatrical. But, that's coming from an old straight guy who never tread the boards a day in his life. Again, enjoyed the watch party and revisit. Can't wait to see whats next.

Michael T.B

I haven't watched it yet please tell me you did the entire performance including the Freddie and Brian Encore of love of my life and is this the world we created because you can't say you saw the whole performance if you didn't watch those last two on course.

TONY SURRATT

Enjoyed that, watching you watch a performance. Bless your heart. Y’all picked a great one. Staying with the channel history, and your own experiences with Rock Hell yeah , Freddie And that thing you was describing, the unison in everything is what I’ve always called concert. That why I put a lot store in live performances, big or small. I hope you watch more What a gift Amy …. Merry Christmas

Anaïs

What a great Christmas gift for us, thank you! I agree with everything you commented on. Freddie was however suffering from a throat infection at the time of this concert, so much so that doctors adviced him not to perform. This is why his voice sounds a little bit tired at times. Freddie of course didn’t want to miss the chance to contribute during this event so Queen performed anyway.

Michael T.B

I was afraid you weren't going to do the Encore you really have to watch it it's very very touching performance

Michael T.B

Wait until you catch them live at Wembley 86 love to take that Journey with you

Kristina Mathesen

Well said, Amy! Merry Christmas to all of you. 😊

Rodney Griffin

Check out The Concert for Bangladesh back in 1971 that was organized by George Harrison. It was a forerunner of Live Aid. Yes, Music can do so much good in this world. I call it The Breath Of The Earth. Music is the breath of the Earth. We all need to breathe in and breathe out.

Siôn Hewitt

Amazing Amy ! So glad we get to see your reaction to this. A nice Christmas present to all us fans of yours. We get to relive the Live Aid set again with you. Just a short 21 mins, but so much concentrated into that time. All your comments were on point, theres no need to highlight any! I think most Queen fans would be nodding in agreement. You have one final quest in your Queen journey. Which is a truly fitting end. As others have already mentioned ; Queen at Wembley 86. They get the whole stadium to themselves this time ! Would be great to share some of , if not all of that concert! 😁 I hope you, Vlad and Liesel have a great Christmas!

Yes, Queen did steal the show Freddie did look tired, but he was suffering from a cold or flu virus at the time bands like Queen would normally do a two-to-three-hour show and it gets very hot under the lights so yes, they were quite fit. Other iconic gigs that you may want to see is probably Led Zepplin from their 1973 Madison square Garden's gig "since I've been loving you" and for many different reasons a totally different vibe as far as rock concerts go Pink Floyd comfortably numb from the 1994 pulse concert. anything from these two concerts is exceptional.

I first heard Queen in junior high in 1974 when KILLER QUEEN was all over the radio. There was a short time in high school in 1978 when I covered my Gov't textbook with construction paper with the lyrics to THE PROPHET'S SONG typed on them. By the time 1981 rolls around, ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST was all over the radio... and while it wasn't that bad... I didn't buy any more of the albums and didn't hear much of them in the 80s on FM radio. But... THIS CONCERT, is the exception. Fabulous!

Hope you'll get to Live Aid 8 eventually when Roger Waters and David Gilmour agreed to play together after 24 years and before Rick Wright died, that was also epic.

were you jarred every time she stopped the video? I was. It has a flow to it which was disrupted. I loved Amy's commentary, but I still felt shocked each time it stopped.

Evelyn

I'll tell you why, in my humble opinion, this set was SO incredibly successful, outside of the obvious reason that Queen were great live performers. 1) As you read, they took the time to rehearse, because this was kind of a "come back" for them and they wanted to take total advantage of the opportunity. They planned their set down to the T. Most of the other performers treated this as "just" a charitable event and didn't put as much effort in beforehand. and 2) I cannot recall if Freddie or another member of the band knew the front-house sound engineer, but in fact, when Queen came onstage, the sound was turned up, so Queen was actually louder than the other performers had been! That's what I've read and heard anyway. Perhaps it's an urban myth.....

Evelyn

I wasn't into Queen in real time. Wasn't even going to see the movie, but was persuaded. YOWZA, did I ever become a convert!! Vlad, there is a Youtube video that has as plit screen: One side is this live performance, and the other side is the reenactment of it in the movie. It is jaw-dropping how accurately they re-created this performance. You both should watch it just to be amazed.....

Evelyn

Amy....He was not well. He had a throat infection, and the doctor had advised him not to sing. Queen wasn't going to pass up this chance though, so he sang in spite of his rough throat.....and outside of a couple of moments, you would have never known. Although Vlad said that he was not formally diagnosed for two more years, he did stop touring after 1986, as he just could not keep his normal level of energy up. He knew something was off by 1986, in my opinion.

Although I'm prejudiced because Zeppelin and Floyd are my two top bands, but I also think the Celebration Day concert by "Zeppelin" in 2007 at the O2 in London is a must watch. It was in incredible performance.

Allan Middleton

despite what you see in the stadium ... nobody there knew that Queen were performing... all the tickets for tha stadium were sold out before anyone knew that Quenn had been added to the show!

Allan Middleton

i cosider myself lucky to have seen Queen in concert several times

Betsy

Thank you for the wonderful Christmas gift, Amy and Vlad! Always enjoy your reactions.

Allan Middleton

you said he soundee tired but he was advised not to perform due to suffering from laryngitis !!

I agree Celebration Day was also exceptional, but I think MSG for me at least is a time when the band was at the height of their carrier and is a moment in time that is so typical of the 70's and the extraordinary music that came out of the period it was a time as a teenager then that I look back on still with awe and amazement

Truth be told, Evelyn, I haven't watched the video yet!!! I almost ALWAYS watch a Beatles reaction the day it becomes available for me... But... for some reason, I like for there to be about 3 or 4 Amy Reviews of songs (or performances, like this one) and then I watch them one after another. I don't know... I guess once I get into the mood for listening to Amy, I don't care to stop after just a single song. (Works for me, anyway!) Speaking of performances, I hope one day Vlad has Amy see the 1973 TV LIVE performance by The Edgar Winter Group's super famous instrumental (many know the riff, if not the song) called FRANKENSTEIN... it's so much better than the album version, and watching the lead, Edgar, a multi-intrumentalist albino with long straight hair (with a twin brother, Johnny, famous blues guitarist) and plays an amazing early synth with a detached keyboard, then a wicked alto sax solo, and THEN he does a drum dual-duel with his (very young looking) drummer! It's a TOUR-DE-FORCE performance! https://youtu.be/P8f-Qb-bwlU Or - he could do Eddie Van Halen's 13-minute guitar solo ERUPTION, from 1986, that most everyone just loves: https://youtu.be/d4sza2SNP_E

This was an absolute treat.

Daniel Adano

Regarding the initial act...with the fake policemen...When you see the film ''Let it be'' by ''the Beatles''...in the end...everything will make more sense!!..Lol ..
