It was July 13, 1985, I was 17 years old and getting ready to start my senior year of high school (just outside of Philadelphia in South Jersey) and attending that concert with a huge group of my friends, to this very day, was one of the BEST days of my life. It was so unbelievable and the feeling that came over us is hard to put into words. I’ll always consider myself extremely lucky to have attended such an historic event.

If someone has a stronger voice than another they are sharing a mic with then they stand back a bit. The mic will still catch them.

@@user-qi4tp5jb6m yes, it was a truly remarkable era. Bob Geldof should have won the Nobel Peace Prize for his longtime efforts & contributions to World Peace & Famine Aid. We came together globally to point out a horrific tragedy & agree to help. But in America, there was hatred & divisiveness too. AIDs was a huge issue & a lot of people were scared. So was the crack epidemic. Famine in Ethiopia brought us together. While “White America /The Moral Majority” tried to make everyone terrified of gay & black people here at home. The only fully politically supported & promoted event from our government was Farm Aid. It was an incredible time, but I don’t want to over romanticize it…

David Bowie handed George Michael the microphone right after his part. Bob Geldorf never took it or directed it away from him. Now that's respect for a then very young singer who would Bloom into an absolute Megastar.

He was probably just trying to keep it from Geldof and who'd blame him 😂😂

As year by year goes, this track will always remain as one of the most legendary Christmas tracks ever created, and what a legacy it has! As literally there's one month left till Christmas, no better time to play it than now, one of the very few tracks that'll never get old, no matter how many times you play it, and still hits the heart, and the same since its release. Amazing how many iconic legends we have collaborating for this iconic hit. Phil Collins with his legendary passionate drumming skills, George Micheal, Sting, Boy George, Bob Geldolf, and many more from the original, but David Bowie, and Freddie should have been apart of it since the start, sad to see that we're slowly losing them one by one, but lets all be grateful. All the best, hope everyone has a Merry Christmas, Feliz Natal, and Happy Holidays! 🎄☃🎁👋

Simply unforgettable concert..for me born ‘67… part of my great memories from good old times

2:36: WOW!!! Look at Freddie's face: he's so relaxed, happy and joyful! He enjoys that moment so badly. Seems that he's got the whole wide world in his hand - without the mic! :) What a magic and unique moment!

I hate that I was born in this generation. My heart belongs to the music of this time. None of my friends understand what good music is they only listen to modern music while I only listen to 60s-80s. If anyone attended Live Aid whether Wembley or JFK I would love to hear some stories! Even if you saw anyone of these artists live!

This song is my favourite and this song yesterday come on the radio & I turned it up and my son who's 16 now has learnt a lot because of this song and the fact he liked the song, my son likes a lot of the 80's music where my daughter does not lol....this had given me a chance to really connect with my son about the meaning of what is happing in the world and he knows how blessed he is to have what he does and to be thankful, also he has a lot more compassion to the outside world around us. An amazing song brought together by such compassionate singers.

Try and add up all this talent on one stage.....Bowie, Bono, McCartney, Daltrey, Mercury, Sting, George Michael, Boy George, Paul Young, Phil Collins, Simon Le Bon.....I mean, come on, this is absolutely an insane amount of talent even if half of the were drunk or high off their asses.

Io mi emoziono troppo..un colpo al ❤

Can we show some appreciation to Sir Bob Geldof and Midge Ure for pulling off not one but two concerts on the same day on two different continents and bringing so many artists together to donate their time and talent for a noble cause? Getting that many artists to share the stage in one place is impressive but to do that twice could be considered a miracle.

The media today would not be as forgiving as back then - the artists took a massive amount of the money sent in as 'expenses'. Geldof defended this as saying they were used to being flown in helicopters and 5 star champagne for example so it was perfectly normal but no, the whole point of this was to give money to the kids in Africa, so why not for one day, just one day, take the train and not a helicopter, drink some cola and not champagne? Not saying the cause and effort was not good more it would not be such a naive audience and media today. Gervais for example would have had a field day.

It's Christmas time, there's no need to be afraid At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy Throw your arms around the world at Christmas time But say a prayer, Pray for the other ones At Christmas time it's hard, but when you're having fun There's a world outside your window And it's a world of dread and fear Where the only water flowing Is the bitter sting of tears And the Christmas bells that ring There are the clanging chimes of doom Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time The greatest gift they'll get this year is life Where nothing ever grows No rain nor rivers flow Do they know it's Christmas time at all? Here's to you Raise a glass for everyone Spare a thought this yuletide for the deprived If the table was turned would you survive Here's to them Underneath that burning sun You ain't gotta feel guilt just selfless Give a little help to the helpless Do they know it's Christmas time at all? Feed the world Feed the world Feed the world Feed the world Feed the world Let them know it's Christmas time again Feed the world Let them know it's Christmas time again Feed the world Let them know it's Christmas time again Feed the world Let them know it's Christmas time again Feed the world Feed the world Feed the world Feed the world Feed the world Feed the world (Feed the world) Feed the world Feed the world 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🎄🎄🎄🌍🌍🌍❤❤❤

I bought 4 tickets, and the other 3 went to my Air Force "friends", Kenny Marchon, Roger McCauslin, and John McGrath. We just got out to the Coach when Led Zeppelin came out in Philadelphia. I still have the Tshirt, Programme, and Ticket Stub. Plus I shot 11 rolls of 24 exposure 35mm film. I have about 250 pictures from the day. Something that will NEVER happen again in the future...

Just look at this. How is it possible to hate something like this? This is such a historical, touching and and uniting moment of the world history. Just to show how magical music is and how it brings everyone in everywhere around world all together in just one podium!
