i agree with your comment

hfield07

weren't allowed sound checks at live aid.

@emufan23 .. especially on old analogue kit. Nowadays, you can store levels for each act... but resetting something like 60-100 channels on analogue desks?

Alex Cockell

@FanOfPopCulture Simply because they *didn't have the footage*. ABC and MTV junked their broadcast masters.. the Beeb didn't.

Somebody should have told the guy who introduced Elton that his ballbag was hanging out.

They were having trouble all day with the live audio and the mix

Coked out of his gourd and flying twice the speed of sound! Raw sound adds to this. No pretension or blame...just keeps on playing. He sure doesn't rock like this anymore, though. Let's see where these hip hop assholes (I mean "artists") are in 5 yrs. The industry just doesn't put out talent anymore. What a shame.

too bad this was cut off the dvd of Live Aid

Piano is out of tune, prob because he couldn't even hear it but a good performance apart from that. Sounds good played slightly more up tempo

@TomandaustinRV As a former monitor engineer, feedback is part of the game. We have many mixes going on for the performers. Sometimes up to 18. To do a show like this is utterly amazing. I have the utmost respect for the sound men for this show.

feedback is horrible in this song. unless that's actually an instrument i'm hearing.

Elton was in tune the whole time despite being coked up it was a bad tech day and the backing singers sucked horribly

WolfieTed

sounded like a few bad notes in there. He must have been psyched up something rotton!

I thin that the rank should be as below: 1. I'm Still Standing at Wembley 1984 (Ice on Fire?) 2. I'm Still Standing at Wembley 1985, Live Aid (it more "rocks" I think, but the sound :/) 3. I'm Still Standing (I don't know when it was, but Elton was playing it with Eric Clapton and Phill Collins) It's just my opinion ;) Elton ROCKS!!

@Gregsynth I checked out the Prince's trust version. Yipes. Cocaine really makes things move so much more quickly.

Arthur5041975

@Gregsynth It's not a great performance. It's way too fast.

Arthur5041975

Wow that was a trainwreck of a performance. Let's also blame the fact that Elton racing at high speed through this. This is your brain on drugs.
