Will they just (predictably) perform Bohemian Rhapsody or will they attempt a truncated medley of the Live Aid set?
I reckon they could potentially do those ideas but there's one song that I've got higher in my list of potentially songs they could perform; Somebody To Love.

If they've only got five minutes to do a song, the full version of Bohemian Rhapsody won't seem the best idea especially with the opera section in the middle they would have to either walk of stage and them come back on or do another rendition of a song (though there probably isn't enough time to do a full song).

I think if there's a more general audience, who don't necessary know Queen songs, they might rather hear Somebody To Love.

But I could be wrong with my theory...
WWRY from 1982 or possibly FBG in full 1974 regalia.

Or LOML in its famous 1979 Rock in Rio guise.

Or the single version of SSOR from the very first Queen studio recording.

Or LOASA (Bulsara Front Room Version)
I think Adam will come on stage and say 'day-o'.

And a lone AIDS patient will respond 'day-o'.
Adam Lambert has reportedly said on Instagram that it's a song they've performed many times.

So if true they are only going to be playing one song.
They could attempt a medley of Bo Rap & Killer Queen (as they did in London on New Year's Day some years ago)
(but I'm afraid it won't happen)

My personal guess is either Somebody To Love or Don't Stop Me Now
The singalong version of Hanmer to Fall ofcourse!
As usual it'll be We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions for certain and 80% Bohemian Rhapsody; 10 - 15 minutes tops.
Rio was in 1977, not 1979. Get your facts straight!
Wilki We must all HEAR to believe
Surely it’ll just be We Will Rock You?

(I’d suggest a medley with We Are the Champions but that might be a step too presumptive at The Oscars!??!)

With the bouncing ball on the lyrics propped up on screen? NICE!

MY guess would be SON AND DAUGHTER to appeal to the LGBTBLTRSVPPEMDAS community



That or WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER. (Actually i seriously doubt this but it'd go great with the IN MEMORIAM bit)

It's probably BoRhap.
"Come tonight! Come see the Overbite! Come to Ogre Battle, FIGHT!"
The will definitely play The cosmos rockin' :)
haha
Fuckers
Gimme the prize ??
It will be a spectacular version of “Bohemian Rhapsody!”

I would love WWTLF or TSMGO but there might not be time for 2 songs!
