Robbie sings Queen at Live 8 and does Freddie Proud

02 July 2005

Robbie Williams started his stunning set at Live8 London with We Will Rock You.

Robbie coaxed the previously quiet crowd into a roaring, shouting machine with the Queen anthem.

Robbbie followed WWRY with his "Let Me Entertain You", "Feel" and "Angels".

During Angles, Robbie leaned into, and looked right into a camera, in a way very similar to Freddie during Live Aid in 1985. Robbie had a bit of a smile on his face when he did it, and it can only be speculated if he was remembering the Freddie moment when he did it.
