"Queen opening to massive cheers with "Bohemian Rhapsody", and the antics of lead singer Freddie Mercury who got the entire Wembley crowd clapping in unison to "Radio Ga Ga" and "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" before singing along, word-for-word, to "We Will Rock You" and "We Are the Champions". The band's performance, also including "Hammer to Fall", led to Queen's slot being voted in a recent poll (by fans and musicians alike) as the 'Greatest Live Gig Ever'."

"Queen's iconic performance at Live Aid in July 1985 has been named the world's greatest rock gig in an industry poll."

  • Freddie clicked with the world, simple as that. Anyone who says they don't like the guy is hiding their blush behind their keyboard.

  • Didn't see this coming? Oh come, this is a quartet; a perfect team; a group who believes in their music. They thrive on live performances.

  • Rock'n Roll, i love deeply love you.
