Which song ended Queen's set at Live Aid in 1985?
Answer
We Are the Champions
Answer
We Are the Champions
“We Are the Champions” ended Queen's set at Live Aid in 1985.
Queen performed at Wembley Stadium in London on 13 July 1985 during the global Live Aid benefit concert. The band played a tightly structured 20-minute set that included “Bohemian Rhapsody,” “Radio Ga Ga,” “Hammer to Fall,” and “Crazy Little Thing Called Love.”
After those songs, Freddie Mercury and the band closed their performance with “We Are the Champions.” The song's communal chorus made it a natural finale, and the performance is frequently cited as one of the most memorable sets in rock history.
A common mix-up is placing “We Will Rock You” at the end. Queen performed that song earlier in the set, before “We Are the Champions.” The two songs are often paired on recordings and at sporting events, but only the latter closed Queen's Live Aid appearance.
