Who saw it live? Or who watched any of the performances on youtube afterward?
The Queen set was pretty fire. Freddie was singing with a cold, and you could hear some cracks in the voice and not hitting some of the high notes, but damn his voice when he's sick is still amazing.

It's really funny how Freddie Mercury played at Live Aid while he had live AIDS inside of him.

Freddy Mercury would have been a /tv/ contrarian poster

I’m not usually a contrarian, but Queen is overrated. Their songs all sound the same and Mercury’s voice is grating.

>>212688663
yeah his bands style and the opening choice of TVC15 always gets me hyped.

>>212688863
did you even watch that performance? Every song is different as can be. ballad, soft rock, hard rock, 50's style elvis tribute,
Nothing in that set sounds like the other.

queen is slop for gen x boomers. simple as

>>212688078 (OP)
just imagine if they'd just nuked africa back then instead.
given the same adverts of starving marvins have been on TV since the 60s, and a trillion or more has been funneled into 'aid' there, with no end of this supposed perpetual starvation, and the population quadrupling since then, it seems that more good would have been done if they'd just ended the continent at that point.

>>212689253
How rude!

>>212689253
we all know now that slavery to whites was and will be their only true freedom.

Yeah I did, that’s how I came to my conclusion. They manage to sound the same even after handling several music genres.

I remember there were rumors all day that the surviving beatles were going to show up. I doubt a single starving African was saved by that elite circle jerk.

I watched it live, recorded it on VHS as well. It was great I enjoyed all the music. I was only 12 at the time, so didnt appreciate older bands.

It was all bullshit of course and the older ryou get and look back at this I can't believe how fucking naive I was about how the world worked. But in my defence I was a kid.

Live Aid sucked.

>>212688078 (OP)
Yeah but it was a big con and despite every government and intelligence agency warning that stooge Geldof not to give the money raised directly to the darkies, he did, and they spend it on building an army and killing each other with it. So more taxpayer money went to cleaning up the mess he made

>>212688663
Wow, he's a terrible musician. This is awful and corny as fuck. Was he famous?

>>212691278
It's an acquired taste. That was my first reaction as well but it grows on you.

>>212694355
I think music in general was so much better around the 80s to 90s. There were so many different genres all getting airplay and all of them were actual musicians who could play instruments and sing (milli vanilli excepted)
Now the "artists" are just an image, they can't sing, are always autotuned,, don't write their own music, don't play instruments, sample all the shit from the 80s and 90s that was good... There's a small number of singers only (adele, ex.) who can sing, but that's about it. No more talented bands and there's no more eclectic feel to the genres and what's popular.

>>212688078 (OP)

Already blocked that youtube channel so I can't see the content. I assume you're linking to some moron who barely understands music or uses clickbait to the maximum degree.

Funny that /tv/ has a longer thread about Live Aid than /mu/
I guess they're too busy endlessly talking about kpop, Olivia Rodrigo, Nirvana and whatever bullshit some Youtube reviewer has said.

>>212691278
it wasn't even a hit at the time of release

Almost all of the bands from the UK from 60s-today sucked. Queen, Beatles, Zeppelin, Stones, Kinks, Stranglers, Cure, Yes, Genesis, Bowie, Oasis. Not one good song between them.

>>212696000
hey dont take it out on wings of pegasus, hes a cool dude who doesnt afraid of anything

Music is stupid. There's like 3 songs and 3 lyrical topics, so 9 different things to make.

>>212696083
this is too obvious. you shouldn't be so blunt and completely on one side. You need to give some wiggle room so it seems like a real honest opinion of someone who may be swayed, so that people will be baited into trying to argue you over to their side. 1/10 , do better.

>AIDS?

did live aid cause the population explosion in africa / india leading to millions of them coming to europe and replacing europeans? if so, based

>>212696882
Okay beatles are decent but other than that rock sucks. Give those bands female singers and the quality would have shot up, or remove the drummers and singers entirely and likewise the quality of the music would improve dramatically.

Didn't most of the money not even go to charity?

>>212696014
/mu/ seems to have a high percentage of zoomer retards.

>>212693581
TVC15 wasn't a B-side. It was ok Station to Station. B-sides are literally the "b" side to a single, usually a song that didn't make the album.

The whole thing did more harm than good, and just exacerbated the problem. Unless you were in on it and made millions from it.
