Most of top artists of that time were present at this mega-famous festival and Queen of course had to be there. Each artist got from ten to twenty minutes for their show; no playback or soundcheck were allowed. Queen hesitated because playing without a soundcheck is always a risk. But then they accepted the rules and their 20 minutes of fame came on at 18:44 GMT.
Queen were on top form and not only according to Bob Geldof and Elton John, they stole the show. They played only the intro to Bohemian Rhapsody (the opera part couldn't be played from the tape as playback was forbidden & there wasn't enough time anyway). Instead of the opera part, Radio Ga Ga followed. We Will Rock You was reduced to the first verse (and the final guitar solo) only. Is This The World We Created was performed by Freddie and Brian only later in the evening.

05: We Will Rock You (First Verse & Finale)
06: We Are The Champions

  • @sliat1981 Brian & Roger have said that Freddie will never be replaced.

    Just because they do a concert or two with another singer does not mean Freddie is being replaced. Far from it.

    Queen just wants to play their music live every once and a while and they should because Brian & Roger are still great musicians. Even though they are both in their sixties they still play better than the musicians who are in their twenties.

  • No, Freddie, we love YOU!

  • best ever

    i love quuen

  • he was incredible. there's no way queen could replace a frontman like that

  • Hits the A4 on we will rock you and a C5 on champions. Good job freddie only heard you do that 6 times.

  • How ironic is it that every part of this set by the Genius that is Queen that there's a stupid little pop-up that says "how well do you know justin bieber?" Talk about one extreme to the next !!! Pure talent and genius on one end and the epitome of what's happened to music....so sad.... Get that bieber crap off my screen! long live Queen!
