Queen: live at Milton Keynes (1982)

To think this gig i’m watching was 11 years before i was even born.
Yet I am so astounded by the pure brilliance of the band.
No matter how much live music has progressed over the years, this performance shows that when all the pyrotechnics & props are stripped from a performance its the music that captures the audience.

Words can’t explain how jaw-dropping i found this video.
Freddie’s voice and onstage personality, the use of acapella style midway, the moment the music in sync draws back in.
Just WOW.

This is why i love music so much, that a band such as this can still touch peoples hearts this many years on.
That a performance so stripped back as this can capture the hearts and attention of so many people.

I’m saddened that i wasn’t around to experience this at the time.

Queen forever have my heart & utmost respect. <3
