Live Aid happened on July 13, 1985, and Queen took the stage at Wembley Stadium without many expectations. Their music was slowly losing its momentum, but then something big happened to them. Freddie was given credit, but their legacy saw them get a 20-minute eruption of passion.

Mercury went to another level. He was practically everywhere from the piano solo for “Bohemian Rhapsody” and marching around strutting his stuff during “Radio Ga Ga”. Their performance was arguably the best at Live Aid and the one fans still remember all these years later.

One of the best moments of their career was the beginning of the end for Freddie.
