I bought the DVD of Queen on fire a few weeks ago, i may need to buy more copies, as i have just about worn this one out. It is THE best concert i have every seen, helps that i think Freddie Murcury is very hot! Its very entertaining and keeps you stuck to your chair, even after watching it about 50 times, i cant get enough Freddie. Such a shame that such an attractive,talented,smart man like Freddie isn't around today. But his music lives on, i don't think a day goes by that you don't hear a Queen song on the radio or TV. I think this DVD is priceless, knowing that Freddie didn't give may interview, i feel lucky to have a copy of it. Freddie still lives in my heart!

I own this on DVD. It is one of the greatest things ever. Whenever I'm alone in the house, I'll turn off all the lights and crank up the sound. It is an amazing experience, made all the more powerful when you realize how ALIVE Freddie was back then. This was truly a divine performance (and yes, Love of My Life still makes me cry every time).The part that truly breaks my heart, though, is this: in the interview with Freddie Mercury, the interviewer asks "Do you think Queen will still be around in ten years?" Bear in mind that this was in 1982. Freddie seems so hopeful, so easygoing. He has no idea that in ten years the songbird will be silenced. It hurts me to see that. Oh, how I love him.For any die-hard Queen fans out there, this is a must-see.

What is your problem Roxy? You don't know what you're talking about! Freddie is awesome! I hate when people like you who obviously know nothing about talent try to judge! I've been operatically trained for 7yrs now and am about to go to school for vocal performance and I think Freddie's got a ton of talent! I also can't believe you're comparing Queen; one of the most contributing rock bands to the Spice Girls; talentless, daddy-did-not-love-me, girl powered, children! I, on the other hand believe is one of the greatest bands of all times... I have not got to hear all of this live album, but what I heard was entertaining! Maybe not their best performance, but still good!

These guys really were on fire.What a truly great DVD this is. Truth be said, Queen weren't popular after their 'disasterous' "Hot Space" album.But this is the tour, and they done the disco songs like "Staying Power", "Back Chat" and "Action This Day" and transformed them into traditional Queen stage classics. But this album apparently killed their success in America. But there are still loads of devoted American Queen fans as much as there are British. They are a great band with an awesome universal appeal.This is a different sounding concert if compared to "Live at Wembley '86". Queen were going through a transitional stage.But they still showed cynics that they still knew how to rock.
