This week’s episode of Queen The Greatest Live takes followers again to July 1986, when the band have been on their Magic Tour.

This can be the final time each Freddie Mercury and John Deacon would tour with Queen.

Footage this time round is taken from certainly one of their two sold-out Wembley Stadium live shows, performing to 72,000 individuals at a time.

The focus is on Is This The World We Created, a shifting and emotional piece sung by Freddie with Brian May on acoustic guitar, following on from the explosive opening of One Vision and Tie Your Mother Down.

An accompanying caption on the video reads: “With Brian writing the music and Freddie penning most of the lyric – the pair having watched an agonising documentary on the African famine of the ’80s – this contemplative ballad from 1984’s The Works album also proved a live favourite, taking a pumped-up crowd to an entirely different headspace. And as we can see, the audience are just as captivated here, as at any other point in the show.

“A yr earlier on the identical venue, Is This The World We Created…? had been a spotlight of the Live Aid profit live performance’s finale. Now, this beautiful duet from the band’s personal ’86 Wembley present lays the tune superbly naked, with Brian’s deft fingerstyle on a nylon-string classical guitar carrying Freddie’s craving vocal.”
