I know we say “this is a Renaissance painting” a lot, but THIS is a hell of a Renaissance painting:

Today, on July 13th, 1985 - Queen Story!
London, UK, Wembley Stadium
'Live Aid'
"Of all Queen's 704 [actually 705] live performances, perhaps the most important was Live Aid. It enabled them to show that without all of their trappings, their own light, their own sound, the power of darkness, and only an 18 [actually 20] minute set, they were still able to conquer the world."
- BBC Radio One special

Me: *tries to see what the Queen fans on TikTok have to say*
*Jim hate*
*”facts” that may or not be actually true*
*”Freddie Mercury was bisexual-“*
*Using Barbara Valentin as evidence*
*thinking things that happened in the movie actually happened irl*
*general misinformation about everyone and everything*
Me: aaaaand back to Tumblr I go
(open tags at your own risk, there’s a whole essay in there)
#Why are Tumblr Queen fans the only sane ones like what happened#Coincidentally this is also how reading a lot of articles about them and their history tend to go#When did we stop looking at the primary sources like how did some of these disconnects grow so large#Freddie was just gay. YES he was out. YES he stated it publicly (he was still coy sometimes I will give you that)#No he didn’t know he had AIDS before Live Aid. Yes Jim was his major long term partner.#No the little people with trays of coke on their heads story isn’t true. No Freddie most likely didn’t take Princess Diana to a gay bar#No Roger didn’t accidentally give a fan a sex tape (there is a nugget of evidence that a tape was leaked but if so it didn’t happen like th#He locked himself in a TAPE CLOSET not a cupboard (this one doesn’t annoy me as much as the rest)#No Freddie was not ✨involved✨ with Barbara Valentin#No Love of My Life is not about Mary in the way people think it is#RESEARCH PLEASE I AM BEGGING#IT’S NOT EVEN THAT HARD TO FIND SOME OF THAT STUFF#ESPECIALLY IF YOU’RE A JOURNALIST LIKE LOOK AT THE PRIMARY SOURCES INSTEAD OF CONFIRMATION BIASING BY LOOKING AT ARTICLES#FROM OTHER JOURNALISTS WHO ALSO DID WHAT YOU’RE DOING#REEEAAADDDD#It’s not even annoying because it’s about a topic I like it’s just literally the unimaginable gap between truth and reality#that is SO EASY TO BRIDGE AND YET. LIKE HOW IS IT THIS BIG OF A PROBLEM WHAT HAPPENED#I have written a novel in these tags so I’ll stop yapping now but GOD it grinds my gears#queen#queen band#roger taylor#roger meddows taylor#brian may#sir brian may#freddie mercury#john deacon#Tiktok#queen fans

Live Aid
Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh this is not a drill
LIVE AID! Which is amazing enough by itself but guess when it took place?
IT WAS IN 1985!
THAT MEANS THAT THE GOLDEN ERA KIDS WOULD HAVE GOT TO SEE IT ON TELEVISION DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I WOULD PAY OR WHAT SKETCHY ALLEY DEALS ID MAKE TO BE ABLE TO SEE THAT CONCERT AHHHHHHHH
The connections are ASTOUNDING I am CONTEMPLATING I am CONSIDERING I am so so excited about this. So have some 5-year-old Harry watching Queen perform at Wembley Stadium in Live Aid *I'm actually crying I'm not okay.* 6:41 PM on Saturday, July 13, 1985. The Dursleys are in the other room maybe putting Dudley to bed and Harry is alone and this is life-changing.

Sorry about the shadows and quality again!
