Having read so many comments on this page I have to state that although 'Queen' were the best act on the day at Live Aid - Sir Paul McCartney was the biggest star at the event. By 1985 the Beatles were the biggest selling music act in history. 'Queen' regard the Beatles as one of their biggest influences. 'Queen' were huge fans of the Beatles. 35 years after 'Live Aid' Sir Paul is still having critically acclaimed and hit selling solo albums. His last album McCartney III went straight in at No1 on the UK charts Xmas 2020. His previous album 'Egypt Station' went straight in at No1 on the US charts. And the Beatles remain one of the biggest selling acts each year - despite having split up over half a century ago. Why? Because of those amazing songs.

Buzz Bates, at the time of the show, Dire Straits was the most popular. Geldof wanted them more than anyone else. He asked them first because he knew all the other acts who wouldn't commit would changed their minds if they knew Dire Straits would be there. At least that's what John Illsley said. Remember, this was the same year Brothers in Arms was released. The biggest selling CD in history at the time.

Some context - this was Paul's first live performance since John Lennon was shot. All three Beatles were still very reclusive at the time. Which is why he gets such an unbelievable reaction, and also explains why he only did one song. Ringo and George both refused to attend, as they were still worried about their security, at such a high profile event. Lennon's death encouraged lots of copycats, and all three remaining Beatles received regular death threats throughout the 1980s.

Thank you so much for helping Africa,✨❤️✨❤️

paul mccartney,queen,david bowie,elton john,U2,led zeppelin and sting in 1 concert no wonder this is called the greatest concert of all time and as queen outshone everybody on this big stage they have the greatest ever live performance

I would have loved to see Paul play this solo then when the drums come in Ringo walks on stage and starts playing then when the solo comes in George walks in playing that would've been amazing

All what you have done for Africa is incredible. Thank you Paul and friends ❤

I love how chill Paul was about the others coming out and singing with him without him knowing there were technical difficulties, even if they clearly did not know what part of the song he was at lol.

But he DID know! He later joked by saying he had thought about changing the lyrics to "There will be some feedback, let it be." He is a true professional. He kept on going no matter what.

Paul lid my idol. My favorite singer is always gonna be Paul McCartney.

95% de los comentarios: David Bowie se equivocó. 5%: I LOVE THIS. PLSGJ... VIVAN LOS BEATLES

A beautiful segment from the world's most amazing rock concert. RIP David Bowie - you are seriously missed. xx

His voice is amazing, by far my favorite Musician of all time.

Old is gold indeed.❤❤❤

Wow I hadn’t heard much of Paul from this point in time. He sounds amazing

He truly does!!

A partir de 1:58 a voz do Paul pode ser ouvida no estádio, após uma falha desde o início do canção, causando até vaias... Mas aí, vem a catarse! Que lindo.

He was really nervous and his microphone wasn't working fine... Just in case.

We need Live Aid now more than before

Totally unacceptable that the mic fail could have happened. I would have been checking and checking to ensure his mic and equipment was working properly for a performance of this magnitude. He was top of the bill after all, he had not been invited to make up the numbers.

All of those performers queen, phil, bowie,madonna,elton. But when you hear paul mcartney, a piece of legendary band The beatles it really hits different. GOLD

Just imagine.....as THE ultimate climax to the show.....Elvis & The Beatles & The Doors & Jimi & Janis

Jesus you just created an amazing picture in my head

I was there. Paul was having mike problems (you could only hear the piano) so Alison, Pete, Bowie and Bob came out to back him. I think Pete's had one too many haha, or his tumble on stage gave him quite a knock. They've edited this well.

if John LENNON had appeared at live aid.you would have not needed any other band or singer,cos a beatles reunion at the stadium would have generated,(as bob geldof stated ) more money for africa then ALL of the rest of those at live aid put together,just the usa tv networks alone would have paid more then they raised through donations !

Or George Harrison

THIS is the best Live Aid perfomance. Such a great atmosphere. Night sky, the gentle sound of piano and spectacular Macca's voice. And also such a nice interaction with the crowd and with other great artist. Breathtaking.

Let it Be..and it is true Paul McCartney is a maestro of moving forward..love and happiness..xx

Superb performance by Paul. Certainly one of his best songs too. Classic.

This makes my heart feel all warm and fuzzy ♡

This song is about a dream that he had about his mom. She came to him in a dream and told him that everything will be okay and to let it be. He was going through a rough time in his life.

An estimated 1.9 billion people saw this live. Thats insane.

Beatles is the king, Queen is the Queen

Queen, David Bowie, U2, Paul McCartney, and many others... what a spectacular performance

That piano tone is amazing

"There is still a light that shines on me" ...Perfectly timed with the stage lights going on 1:56

Seeing Alison Moyet singing with David Bowie behind the same mic is a dream come true to me!

Alison did say that if she was going to perform a duet with anyone for a single and album track, she said it would be with David Bowie because and quote "Our voices would match up". Little did she know, that 1985 would be the only and closest time, they'd ever get to performing a 'duet'.

I would give my entire existence to witness this live

I can't even imagine how surreal it must've been to hear 72,000 people sing your song

In a 1986 interview, Paul said that the mic went off at Wembley but it's on thru TV coverage, but the problem is Paul can't hear himself. To be able to basically hear nothing from himself and still perform this song is legendary as it shows his vocal chord knows every note, or at least every note in that tune.

If John was alive, and this would have been a Beatles reunion, it would go down as the second best moment in music history. The first is obviously Paul and John meeting.

I've always imagined what it would have been like to have Lennon, Hendrix, Morrison and Joplin appear on Live Aid. Well, was not possible...

Tal vez no la fue la mejor pero ni queen, ni bowie, ni elton john cerraron el show, fue sir Paul Mccartney.

I loved Paul's face when everyone sang "Let it be"!

Queen and Paul McCartney in the same concert? Now that’s epic

Geldof doing the: "woo" like the Beatles did in the backing vocals of their songs, it was very cute ❤️😍

Daaamn this concert made history

This Can't be the only Song Recorded from Paul!

What a perfect time to sing HEY JUDE 😞 Would have loved to have heard him perform that at live aid
