Each band had a really limited time slot for Live Aid. Queen managed to compress their songs into each other in such a way that it felt like an entire gig in something like 10 or 15 minutes.

I was just a 16-year-old watching this live on TV when this concert was televised. I was a huge fan of Queen and expected a great show from them. At that time, I wasn't aware that this performance would have been such a milestone in music history. Even today, every time I see this video, I have to stop and watch it. It never gets tiring. It's a shame how music has deteriorated to the point in which we will never have artists like Queen performing events in musical history. At least the music and videos remain for the younger generation to learn and appreciate.

The Live Aid concert was phenominal, especially the Wembley sets - groundbreaking in so many ways, and a tribute to Bob Geldof and Midge Ure for being the inspiration and driving force behind it. But you absolutely, absolutely need to watch Queen's whole 22 minute set in one go. A landmark in music history. And David Bowie's set is a definite must, too. Oh, and U2 (an up and coming band at the time) were noteworthy too for Bono's audience interaction.

I heard somewhere that this song was Freddie's way of expressing his coming out as gay. The man he killed was himself, the old self. And IMO that's why emphasized the word truth. He was such an amazing talent, and coupled with that fantastic band, they will always be number one. p.s. I watched this concert when it first aired, and when Freddie walked out in wife beater t shirt and the faded jeans that fit just right, I fell in love!
@jazzlefettie Жыл бұрын
I’ve read about lots of theories about the meaning of this song-including the one you mentioned @cindyrwagner6930. Considering that Freddie wrote most of this song long before he was a member of Queen and long before he came out as gay or bi, it could be about the fact that he had created a new identity for himself when he changed his name legally from Farrokh Bulsara to Freddie Mercury, and the man he ‘killed’ was the name or identity he was given at birth by his parents. Freddie always refused to explain the song and said that he wanted the listeners to enjoy trying to figure out what it might mean. Freddie sang every song with such emotion and conviction, it always seemed like the words of each song meant something very personal to him-even when they didn’t! He was the ultimate showman and never gave anything but 100% to the audience. So it’s possible this song might just be an interesting story he made up and doesn’t have anything to do with him at all!

You need to see the whole song live with Freddy. Wembley or Montreal 1981 are both excellent examples. You haven’t heard the song until you’ve heard the entire original by its creators. They switched labels over this song as the head of their original label thought it was too weird and no one would like it or “bang their heads” to it. This is especially funny in the Bohemian Rhapsody movie (historically incredibly inaccurate & unfair to Freddie but the actor playing him was amazing) Mike Myers plays that record exec. If you don’t know this is hysterical because Mike Myers made it a No. 1 smash hit for the second time with its head banging inclusion in his hit movie Wayne’s World (he created the characters on SNL, wrote the movie, stars as Wayne Campbell a character & film based on his childhood in Scarborough, Ont, a suburb of Toronto. He’s also a diehard Queen fan and proud Canadian).

Mercury referred to "Bohemian Rhapsody" as a "mock opera" that resulted from the combination of three songs he had written. It was recorded by Queen and co-producer Roy Thomas Baker at five studios between August and September 1975. Due to recording logistics of the era, the band had to bounce the tracks across eight generations of 24-track tape, meaning that they required nearly 200 tracks for overdubs. The song parodies elements of opera with bombastic choruses, sarcastic recitative, and distorted Italian operatic phrases. Lyrical references include Scaramouche, the fandango, Galileo Galilei, Figaro, and Beelzebub, with cries of "Bismillah!" Although critical reaction was initially mixed, retrospective reviews have acclaimed "Bohemian Rhapsody" as one of the greatest songs of all time and is often regarded as the band's signature song.

Freddie wrote this song. He had contracted AIDS and was not well for this performance. I think some of the lyrics are his farewell and this performance was pretty much his swan song and gave the audience everything he had. But really his performances were not just about the performance, but the relationship he had with the audience. He wasn’t just giving a farewell performance, but sharing a special time with 80k people that he had a bond with.

It is a much shortened version of the song Bohemian Rhapsody has they only had 20 minutes and they managed to fit 6 songs in. The full version of Bo Rap is around 8 minutes so they just did a abridged first part. The opera part they couldn't do live anyway, so even when they did do the full version live the band used to go off stage and there would be a backing track play. I suggest you watch the full set as it was an amazing experience and as I say there are 6 songs and only 2 are shortened. Also if you do do the full set, there is an extra song with just Freddie and Brian later in the evening that isn't normally added but can be found at the link I will try to give you. Edit couldn't leave links but look for Queen Live Aid 1985 full set and then Queen Live Aid 1985 Is This The World We Created?.

if you are a Queen fan, you should definitely see Bohemian Rhapsody (the movie). there's probably a lot of dramatic license but it's a great movie.

Please watch the cover of this song by a young girl named EMILY LINGE. It is just her singing and playing the piano. I was blown away.

Song was written by Freddie. Read a past review that lyrics are telling Freddies story of how he had to deal with his homosexuality and a world that did not accept it.

Queen, generally individually, wrote all their songs. They didn't have hired songwriters.
