11. I Want To Break Free (Queen-Live At Wembley Stadium: 7/11/1986)

After running a quiz in the channel comments, the first gig that will be uploaded is a very anticipated one--the first Wembley concert on the Magic Tour! Good Lord: I'd like to have some WORDS with Queen Productions over why the PICKED THE SECOND NIGHT over the first night! This first concert is MUCH, and I mean MUCH better than the official Wembley concert, that we all know extremely well. The whole band seem to be more relaxed, compared to the 2nd night (the footage from this night proves it). This concert has good quality overall (though it gets a bit unstable in spots), and it's complete! Freddie's voice is much better than the 2nd night--and is overall in good shape (check out Tear It Up, Bohemian Rhapsody, and Friends Will Be Friends for proof)! Have fun comparing the two Wembley concerts!

ENJOY!!!

Note: Freddie makes some amusing comments concerning his cold (before Another One Bites The Dust).

Note 2: Gotta love Brian making up notes and chords during his solo for Who Wants To Live Forever.

Note 3: Freddie admits that he doesn't know the lyrics during Hello Mary Lou, and Tutti Frutti.

Note 4: Freddie and Brian make comments throughout the concert about the weather (it was raining during the show).

didnt alice cooper ever wear a pink dress?

[Gregsynthbootlegs]

I think he did!

[cosmictimes]

Good old 1980's sounds. You can't beat it with a big or small stick

[Gregsynthbootlegs]

Agree! 

[icantstopchewinggum]

finally gor the 25th anniversary dvd with the friday and saturday night shows. Friday was amaaazing!! freddie was so freaking funny because of the rain! :)

[Gregsynthbootlegs]

Can't wait to get it!

[DILLONSONG]

if you think about it

it could have had something to do with american record companies

because in the 80's freddie helped david bowie leave one and join the one queen was with.

maybe that had something to do with mtv being awkward about the i want to break free video.

[DILLONSONG]

the controversy over the video for this song just doesnt make sense to me

America afraid of women in drag?

just think of one of the most popular hollywood comedies ever made

tony curtis jack lemmon with marylin monro some like it hot

then dom deluise dressed as an old lady in those 80's movies

then 80's twisted sister looking like alice in wonderland on mtv!

peter gabrial and david bowie wore a dress also and was welcomed in the 70's

There's not as much barking as the other night, but there's still quite a bit of barking! One version that's really nice is Manchester (his singing style is like a complete 180 from the Wembley stuff)!

Not one of the best versions... lots of barking.
