I never understood or appreciated this song emotionally, until I heard Forestella's rendition. I cried! I had to go watch them when they came to the U.S. They sounded even better live!!! The whole time I sat there my face was in shock. Shock! My body was flushed from the sound that enveloped me!❤😮❤
Ok ….YOU HAVE TO KNOW…FREDDIE MERCURY AND QUEEN DID NOT EVER PERFORM THE MIDDLE SECTION LIVE. They said it was too hard, so they always put a video recording on for the quadrant singing section, then they’d return with May’s guitar leading them back on stage. Forestella always does this live and kills it. You’re comparing a studio layered version with a live version for this particular section…This is FORESTELLA’s LIVE ENCORE concert performance in early 2020 of their successful 2019 Mystique Concert Tour…. LIVE!
@@gogglebox2427 All good 👍😊The more passionate factual correction there is, the better, as far as I’m concerned! Thank you for caring enough to comment here! Keep it up! 💪… ahem .. just so you know .. i have been guilty of the same thing from time to time!😊🤪🥴Nothing wrong with being enthusiastic, right?
They are a crossover group. They are not boys but trained and accomplished vocalists who deftly operate in many genres and at least 6 languages. Two are opera singers …the basso profundo and 3rd from left both with Masters degree in voice, fourth is a trained musical theatre actor and the tenor soprano is a former research chemist with no formal music education , but is self-trained musically and up until forestella was formed he was a part-time rock-singer for a band since University days, and later for a workband in 2016, always dreaming of a career in music.This is one of their most loved performances globally for a good reason ….Forestella pays homage to the originals they cover, and the rest is their twist on the original. This is not about trying to sound like Freddie…that is never ever their intent ….how could they? The song has been rearranged quite a bit …for their 4 unique vocal abilities…..this is their version…worthy of being assessed on its own merits.
Get used to saying ‘it’s better than the original’ because this will happen multiple times with Forestella. This is the best cover I’ve heard IMO (59yr old Brit). As others have pointed out Queen never did the middle part live. Queen used multi track recording techniques whereas Forestella do it live. They harmonise beautifully which you will discover in Scarborough Fair, Warriors and Legends Never Die. Their cover of Despacito is way better than the original. Bad Romance and Shape of You are excellent.
But admit to yourself that no singer in any country has covered Queen's song Bohemian Rhapsody as beautiful and amazing as Forestella's cover, right? 👍
Escuche esta versión mil veces, llevo viendo este video 5' y la reacción de ambos me hace sentir que estoy viendo a Forestella por primera vez. ¡Excelente reacción! ¡Hay cantidad de videos de este maravilloso cuarteto que van a disfrutar!
I think Forestella uses their bass in their own way very unique. Here also it stands out. I recommend to watch their Bad Romance and Shape of you to see how the bass made the song so impactful. As both are so well known, you can feel their twist easily. Even a cover (I rather say it a "version") shows their creativity, vocal prowess and versatility. I love their interpretation and respect to the original so much.
I've heard bohemian rhapsody my entire live, but only in this cover that sung by Forestela i know how good this song is. In their cover. I can feel that this is not just a good song, i can even feel what the protagonists in the song felt. I feel them, i feel how their momma's feel when their son in this position😮 this cover is incredible. That's it .
Thank you for your enthusiastic and honest reaction to FORESTELLA again. I believe you shouldn't and can't compare these two "masterpieces" directly. This would probably not be the intention of these guys. On the one hand, Forestella's version is an absolute homage to Queen and this iconic song. On the other hand: It's FORESTELLA'S VERSION and they are NOT a rock band. And they nailed it! Regardless, this is a masterpiece and on par with the original. DIFFERENT but equal. (Btw., this video is a few years old and now everyone's English, especially the diction, is excellent and almost without an accent).
MinGyu picked voices that complimented his the best, and presented that wishlist when the time came , but ultimately it was out of his hands as the producers were the ones who had the final say. As it turned out, he got the team he wanted 😊
You guys need to listen to/watch Forestella member PITTA’s (the front middle guy) performance of Phantom of the Opera. He does both the female and male part. It’s mind blowing 🤯 🙌🏻
There's no need to compare, they are not Queen, and there won't be nobody like Freddie. They are Forestella and this is a beautiful rendition to one of the most amazing songs ever. Period. Just enjoy what this awesome singers and performers are capable to do, because yes, there are more. However, great reaction. I'm waiting for more 😉 Regards from Mexico.
Could do without the ridiculous theatrics at the start and lessons in diction of all things… or did I miss the fact that this was an English test for the right by Forestella to sing a song in English? And for goodness sake, if you are going to nitpick as reactors then don’t nitpick by confusing the word ANNUNCIATION with the word PRONUNCIATION …the two words have totally different meanings .… the irony of it all..giving English lessons and even worse, that some people here in the comments say that Forestella is WEAK in English! That is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard…these Korean musicians are not weak in this particular language that they sing more often in than the other languages besides their native Korean,… they are constantly improving in all areas since they debuted in 2018 and also since this performance in 2020….and really their English singing did not need MASSIVE improvement at all, quite the opposite in fact…just a little tweaking here and there….which they have. And fun fact…In South Korea English is taught in schools in some cases from kindergarten, and usually from elementary school onwards and it is mandatory to learn it and it is a very basic English. Though most are not proficient in giving dissertations in it, they do understand it and can read it and can exchange pleasantries and address audiences. Forestella is more of a standout in this regard as I find their proficiency as far as singing in the language to be quite high. English is my first language, though I can speak another fluently and have studied a third and can attest that English was the hardest of the three…so let’s give them a break.😅
@@judithermer7969Oh I was going to add that too, but my rant was going on for too long already😅😂 …but I 💯 agree with you. Thank you for adding a very succinct comment 😊❤The thing is that these 2, like so many others, don’t do any research and so don’t know they already had a studio version on their Mystique album in 2019 and that Forestella have also consistently performed this song dozens of times of times now…and have demonstrated that they can also sing it a Capella…this is not just a one-off or fluke performance. This performance is actually at their Mystique Live Encore Concert in January 2020…coming after their successful 2019 Mystique Live Tour. And I find that some people tend to romanticise the original too, because my husband and I who always enjoyed the original, went back to listen to Queen’s version and realised what Forestella’s version brought to the table as an homage to the original. They deserve respect for actually getting more people to go and listen to the original for the first time….because shock! horror! …there are people who have not heard of Queen or Freddie Mercury
@@hildommar I find these two reactors way too smug. Was never a Queen fan and frankly cannot see the greatness of Freddie Mercury yes he could sing but for me no better than most, just my opinion. Never liked the song but do now. ❤️
This is Forestella, a crossover group from Korea They are the winner group in the Phantom Singer ; a survival audition show to form a crossover quartet like il Divo from Korea. However as they have their own unique style. Forestella has sung great covers like Bohemian Rhapsody, We are the Champions, Heal the World, the Sound of Silence, My Favorite Things, Champions (mash-up of Champs league theme and Champions by Jo SuMi), Nella Fantasia, Scarborough Fair.etc etc. [At the Phantom Singer All Stars] they sang "Time in a bottle", "Je suis Malade" as well. "Shape of You" in English, Spanish and African Zulu is fantastic indeed. There are so many fantastic stages from Forestella, so I would appreciate it if you could give us more reactions.
Thanks for your amazing reaction to Forestella again! Forestella first sang their version of Bohemian Rhapsody in the KBS Immortal Songs which is a kind of remake competition music entertainment show. It made them known to the world, and later they put it in their 2nd album titled Mystique. They had concert tour under the title Mystique. This video was filmed at the Mystique encore concert, the last of the tour. I prefer their Immortal Songs video because we can see their acting in the performance there. Here it's too dark to see it well.. I recommend Forestella Queen's best songs compilation video on KBS Jeonju channel. There are 2 more Queen renditions in addition to the very first performed Bohemian Rhapsody by Forestella. I still remember when I saw them with Immortal Songs version video for the first time in my life. I was like, 'How dare a never-heard group to challenge this masterpiece of Queen? Let me see how you ruin it...' and after watching their rendition I stayed in an awe. It hit me like an accident and changed my life. You know what? They DO sound BETTER in live than any video. You can see many witnesses saying the same thing. This concert was my first time seeing Forestella in live and I couldn't believe what I experienced. Hope you can experience that when they go global tour someday.
FYI, you got a long way to go exploring Forestella. It’s too soon to get chills yet. Check out Je suis malade Time in a bottle After these songs I’ll list more for you :) Thank you very much for your reaction!
Thanks for your reaction and I really enjoyed. This live is recorded several years ago and I can tell their recent lives get even better! I recommend their covers: Inner Universe (very experimental sound in Russian, originally Japanese animation song), Time in a bottle (Rock twist), Scarborough Fair (Great Harmonies), Je Suis Malade (Deep emotional in French), Legend Never Dies (my recent favorite). Also their original trilogy - Save our lives, Utopia (you reviewed this already), White nights - and most recent original song written by the member (counter tenor, HyungHo Kang), Snow Globe.
The middle tenor/contralto’s name is Kang Hyuongho. If you would like to hear what he can do by himself , please check out his cover of “Phantom of the opera”; he is absolutely fantastic, covering both male and female parts. It is a must see! Thank you for your reaction! Another one for you to react to would be “Je suis malade”, their cover of Lara Fabian’s song. Also fantastic!
Hi, thank you very much for your reaction to Forestella. It is good to hear various opinions. They are a South Korean crossover quartet. When performing, the members normally stand (there are some exceptions) from left to right, Ko Woorim (bass), Kang Hyung Ho aka Pitta (tenor, countertenor), Cho Mingyo (tenor and group leader), and Bae Doohoon (baritone/ tenor). Please listen to them sing the song Champions. You can also listen to some of their individual performances. Kang Hyung Ho aka Pitta has done Phantom of the Opera and Too much love will kill you, Bae Doohoon has performed Defying Gravity and Despacito alone. Ko Woorim has performed the Christmas Song and one of my favourites a song called A Million Roses. It was a song used in an ost. Cho Mingyo sang The Hills Are Alive and Speechless. I found that everything they sing, I enjoy listening too.
Así de abrumada me sentí la primera vez que escuché a Forestella cantando Bohemian Rapsody. El arreglo y las voces son de lo mejor. Ya lo han aclarado en otros comentarios... la sección de ópera no la cantó Freddy. Eso agrega un punto a favor de éstos 4 cantantes increíbles, que en vivo son capaces de cantar la canción completa. Saludos!!!
Para el camisa verde que no cree que están cantando en vivo lo invito a que escuche y vea las maravillas de conciertos en vivo donde puede aclarar sus dudas sus voces son realmente increíbles ellos hacen en vivo lo que Freddy Mercury nunca lo hizo por favor conozcalon para que puedan tener más elementos para hacer un verdadero análisis sin sesgo o incredulidad alguno los invito son muchos los expertos que los han analizado y han coincidido en lo maravillosos que son el cuarteto Sur Coreano Forestella
@@marthalorenareyesbermudez6171 Justo hoy los vi cantar ese fragmento a capella a 1.5 x de velocidad. De manera impecable. Son sumamente versátiles y talentosos.
So the bass and the tenor are both opera singers, one member is a musical actor and the countertenor has absolutely no training whatsoever. Also, Queen has never done the opera part live because it's so difficult. I have been a Queen fan my whole life and I can say without a doubt they do this song justice, but they do the opera part better. The vocals of Queen's version are mostly Freddie's layered vocals, All 4 members do not sing 99% of it was Freddie. whereas here it's just the 4 of them doing the harmonies 100% live, it isn't comparable.
He's amazing and has no formal training ,he is a chemist and was in a rock band ,to me that's just mind boggling...I love Forestella,they are magical and blend so well ❤️🩹
Chicos me fascino su reacción, estos niños de grandiosas voces, se convirtieron en mis ídolos, y miren que tengo 60 años, Foredtella lo máximo ❗️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 amo a Foredtella😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 he de manifestar que no conozco nada, pero nada, de música, saludos desde Ciudad de México, olvide decirles, que no entiendo nada de lo que hablaron, solo hablo español😔
Freddie NEVER sang the countertenor part. Roger Taylor did. And they only ever did that middle part on tape, dubbing over and over apx 62+ times till they had to stop because the tape was wearing thin and they were running behind etc. Forestella did a MAGNIFICENT job of this! Freddie said "Do anything you want with my music..just don't make it boring" and in that sense, he MUST appreciate Forestella from whenever he's listening! 😊👍 ❤❤🌟
The best cover of Bohemian Rhapsody by the best vocal group on the planet. 💯👍 And you should not forget that Queen didn't sing the middle part live. The diction can be improved of course.
Agreed. Their ability to sing in another language has grown enormously in the 3yrs since this recording. It's a testament to their work ethic and desire to constantly improve their art.
Así es igual cuando cantaron la cancion "despacito" algunas palabras no estaban tan claras pero si los escuchas cantar ahora la misma canción está impecable su español cosa que no es nada fácil para un coreano (ni siquiera para un gringo imagínate un coreano) por Dios como se atreven a decir que hyungho imitó a Freddy Mercury en algunas partes de la canción hyungho también es rockero su voz también puede desgarrarse ( Freddy Mercury es un grande jamás será desplazado) pero porfavor estos muchachos son exelentes no solo cantantes también son intérpretes y muy muy buenos es una lastima que estos dos tipos vengan a decir que están imitando la actuacion a Queen. Y tal cual Queen jamás cantó la parte lírica en vivo, forestella la canta cada presentación y es totalmente en vivo, en varios videos de ellos la an cantando a capella, gracias a dios existe forestella en un mundo actual lleno de autotune.
Agree with you 💯 re Forestella being the best vocal group on the planet, but I have to add that I have heard so many artists of all persuasions and some of a certain prominence use terrible diction while singing and for most of those, English was their only language they speak or sing in, no-one batted an eyelid or nit-picked about it like some are doing here with this South Korean Crossover group, Forestella. It’s the first time I’ve heard anyone say their diction was distracting…sounds nit-picky to me. Most acknowledge the difficulty of the Korean alphabet lacking certain letters that are in the English alphabet but add that they understood every word clearly.🤔
I can agree to some degree on your comment. And it’s good that you also acknowledge that it does not fair to compare a studio version and a live performance. If you do the Queen reaction for this song, please do the Freddie Mercury’s live performance to really see the comparison of the performances. What makes Forestella great is their amazing singing skill, voices blending, emotion delivery and the song arrangement in their live performance. You guys should check their cover for Je Suis Malade and Time in a Bottle.
So great to see that you feel it too. That sensation that overwhelms you when they sing to your soul. I think you guys will love Scarborough Fair (another classic), Legends Never Die (OST from the game League of Legends), Champions UEFA theme song) and Warriors (Imagine Dragons cover). Looking forward to more
Estoy viendo esta reacción entendiendo a medias lo que dicen (no hay subtitulo disponible) pero sus expresiones, reacciones y gestos, me dejan saber que están disfrutando de los maravillosos Forestella. Les recomiendo "Time in a bottle" les volará la cabeza.
Loved your reaction. I saw something featuring Brian Mays recently. The opera section was a multitrack. The 4 in Queen sang the section over and over and several tracks are combined to make it sound like a full choir. Brilliant for that time, and always used even in their live performances. But it not the same as these 4 singers singing the same section live.
Thanks for your reaction and analysis! Easily my favorite "Bohemian Rhapsody" cover! Please check out Forestella's performances of "Je Suis Malade" and "Time in a Bottle" next.
Amo o grupo Forestella. A junção do Bájo, barítono, tenor e contra tenor me encantou. Só ouvia sertanejo e agora só Forestella. Me inscrevi e dei o like. Ahh, não entendo de música, mas a harmonia dos 4 me encantou. ❤🇧🇷🙌 Veja O Pitta cantando solo O fantasma da Opera. Incrível mudar a voz daquele jeito.
Loved your enthusiastic reaction. Prepare to get many many more goosebumps from Forestella. I personally think they are the best vocal group in the world. Not only are their harmonies heavenly but they always put their own unique spin on a song while being respectful to the original. Quite often (almost always actually) I prefer Forestella’s version to the original. Also I believe that English isn’t actually their second language in that they don’t really speak it - from what I’ve seen they just practice really hard (someone correct me if I’m wrong). They also sing covers in Spanish, French, Russian, Zulu & they don’t speak these languages either. They are just really good. For more goosebumps moments check out Scarborough Fair, Je Suis Malade, Hijo de la Luna & Inner Universe.
Actually they speak English just fine albeit with an accent. MinGyu the leader is the most proficient, followed by Woorim the bass, then Doohoon and HyungHo. It’s not a language required to be spoken on a daily basis by them, so confidence has been more the issue but have been working on that.
Thank you for your reaction to Forestella.👍 I find it difficult to compare the 2 songs. I have tried several times. But I also think that the middle is best with Queen. But I agree with you that the second and fourth songs at the end have some great clear notes. They have done covers of Time in a Bottle, Despacito, Bad Romance and Legends Never Die. ❤🔥 The break at the end is because they love drama.
Obrigada por reagirem ao grupo FORESTELLA. O que voces precisam entender sobre o grupo FORESTELLA, é que apesar de ser um grupo crossover, eles transformam tudo que tocam, e dão um toque pessoal a cada musica que interpretam, muitas vezes acrescentando instrumentos e cantando em outras lingas como fizeram com Shape of You. Onde cantaram em 3 idiomas. Peço apenas que antes de saírem julgando o trabalho deles, vocês os conheçam melhor. A musica Time in a Bottle é outra obra prima a qual eles simplesmente fizeram se tornar ainda mais inesquecível do que ja era... todos que já avaliaram ficaram boquiabertos com seus talentos e com o que eles fizeram nas músicas. Reconhecendo seu talento e respeitando o seu trabalho. fica a dica. Os ouçam sem fazer comparações, apenas apreciem o talento vocal deles, suas harmonias e os arranjos que fazem em cada musica que interpretam. 😊
I've been a fan of Queen since before they were famous. THIS is how Freddie would have seen it in his head, given his love of Opera. Queen never sang the middle bit live. They left stage, whilst a video of the middle section played, returning with Brian coming back playing his guitar. I'm going to say it too... When Cho Mingyu sang "Mama just killed a man", as a mum, it really 😭 For me, "Je suis malade" is my favourite Forestella song. Get the tissues ready if you React to it. 😭
¿Por qué comparar? Es mejor disfrutar este increíble homenaje a Queen sin olvidar que quienes cantan en vivo, son coreanos. Son maravillosos y cada cover que hacen muestra su respeto por la versión original, y hacen propio lo que cantan. Son absolutamente fabulosos.
I love you guys reaction! Literally shocked face. I subscribed and follow you guys. Please update more Forestella videos and let more people enjoy their voice❤
Impresionante homenaje a Queen por #Forestella fue tan emocionante! La parte operistica solo lo hizo Queen en video nunca lo pudo hacer en vivo por la dificultad , en cambio Forestella la canta con tanta facilidad en vivo y es maravilloso! Sus increíbles voces pueden cantar cualquier canción con cualquier nivel de dificultad, son los mejores del mundo!!! ❤❤❤❤ Increíble interpretación 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Conozcanlo por favor este cuarteto Sur Coreano llamado Forestella compuesro por Baritono Bae Doo Hoon, Bajo Ko Woorim, tenor lirico Cho Mingyu lider, contra tenor y soprano Kang Hyung Ho y estan canrando en vivo les invito a que los estudien mas para crean y sepan lo que son capaces de hacer solo con sus voces entiendo la incredulidad del camisa verde porque esta acostumbrado a todos lis seudos cantantes que trabajan con autotum y con inteligencia artificial con son casi todos los que conocemos en el medio musical ellos no usan nada de eso y por eso les invito que los conozcsn para aclarar sus dudas cientos de cossch internacionales ya los han estado analizando y han salido de sus dudas ello han hecho en vivo lo que Fredy Mercury nunca hizo por favor salgan de dudas busquen sus conciertos y veran lo maravillosos que son e impresionantes que son sus voces privilegiadas
This is not entirely a true reaction…. some errors and misconceptions need to be addressed for new and future Forestella fans who might read this. And the silly theatrics of falling on the floor in ‘amazement ‘ is just insincere. Forestella’s english in this performance is just brilliant for people who do not speak english as a first language. Diction issue? … where? 1 or 2 letters are not an issue… They are South Korean and are native speakers of that language. There are plenty of musicians today that do not pronounce their lyrics clearly… and one particularly high profile one. Forestella do not pretend to be flawless english speakers/singers. However, Not one person listening to this performance can honestly say they did not understand every word in this song here. In fact Forestella is usually praised for their excellent english and their pronunciation. It is actually laughable to criticise someone whose 2nd language is English using incorrect English …the word pronunciation and NOT annunciation is the word they should have used. THEY HAVE TWO ENTIRELY DIFFERENT MEANINGS. It is a fact. These 2 men only speak American English, criticising a band that sings fluently in 7 languages albeit with a very slight accent. Forestella is not trying to copy or outdo Freddie or Queen… or sit for an English proficiency test! ….what they do is pay homage via a cover of the original… they make it their own version because they have to arrange the music according to their voices’ dynamics. I do believe that people can like or dislike a cover performance of their favourite songs according to preference , that is their right , but there is no need to nitpick and clownishly critique to this degree JUST to make a point. Queen never did perform the middle of this song live on stage .. ever! They admitted it was too difficult and put on a multi track recording for that quadrant part, left the stage and then May would lead them back on again with his guitar playing. It is a fact. FORESTELLA ALWAYS SINGS THE ENTIRE SONG LIVE… especially that difficult part that Queen couldn’t do live. Forestella have done it countless times now and this global viral video is how many ,now devoted fans , discovered them. They deserve some respect for producing such a worthy rendition of this iconic song as well as We Are The Champions and We Will Rock You
Sometimes it translates as faint praise…you know..a bit like ..someone patting you on the head and saying : there, there, at least you tried. You’ll never be better than Freddie Mercury or Queen ….oh and by the way I’m going to ignore the fact that your English is pretty darn good and I’m going to nitpick your diction in 1 or 2 spots of a 6minute long song. We all know Forestella pays homage to the original artists they cover and make their own version of it with arrangements to suit 4 voices..they never pretend to be the artist or seek to outdo them…how could they? And the theatrics on the floor insincerely saying it’s the best thing they ever heard but then proceed to nitpick about the English language while themselves using incorrect language ie annunciation instead of pronunciation🙄 Look everyone can have their artist preferences, but honest and fair critique should still be delivered without exaggeration.
My recommendations would be Hijo de la Luna (in Spanish and Korean) and Je Suis Malade (in French). Both showcase all their voices and harmonies really well.
Se han fijado que existen estos seres que están llevando el canto y la música a la perfección, Forestella, Dimash Kudaibergien. Qué son de otro mundo. 😊😊😊😊 Mientras otros matan la música 😢
initially I wanna say how phenomenal they are and recommend this & that for watching or reacting to. then I realize that it is meaningless. instead you guys should use your ears to find it out yourselves if interested enough. it doesn't matter it is a cover or their own song, you will enjoy it all. BTW they do sing in Korean (their own), Spanish, English, Italian and Zulu (an African language, of course only once in a song)
Welcome to the Forestella world you have many to see that you can analyze Smoothth Criminal, Time in a bottle, Champions, Parlapiu Piano, Hijo de la Luna (son of the Moon), We are champions, Je Suis Malade, "Nella Fantasia" Korean song "Silla's Moonlight" If I leave, The Face that I Miss,Phantom of the opera,Time In A Bottle and bad romance and more Bae Doo Hoon: Tenor/Barítono. Kang Hyung Ho: Contratenor. Cho Min Gyu (Líder ): Tenor Operístico (leggero). Ko Woo Rim (Maknae y Vocalista): Bajo Operísticco. ruclips.net/p/PLdGP7B8Kj_RQVltHygvVwZc4YnFvlLF7O
They are not competing with Freddie, they are putting their own stamp on it as with all their other versions of songs. They are unique with their harmonies and vocals.
After just watching the live original version for comparison, I agree with everyone that Queen's version is iconic, and I agree that Freddie is a good singer, but I disagree with one of you stating that he's a better vocalist than any one of them individually. Not a chance 😅. I'm not a musician, but I've grew up listening to many singers (western and korean) in my 50-plus life, and I wouldn't consider Freddie as a great vocalist in my humble opinion. You also have to take into consideration that they're singing in a language that's not native to them. I would love to see an english speaking singer sing an iconic korean song with all the diction and correct pronunciations and all the other musical jargons. That would be very interesting or maybe even a little comical because english and korean language are night and day different. I speak both languages fluently. I got goosebumps when I first heard the forestella's version. They are just fantastic. Even the quadrant part, I think forestella nailed it, and everything was LIVE. It's all around the best cover I've heard so far.
I would love if you reacted to Forestella's Inner Universe. Its so epic and has that movie/visual feast and ear candy wall of sound that you seemed to enjoy from Utopia. It's one of my favourites from them ❤

I have to remember to breathe!!! I love Fotesrella!
There is no comparison just listen to Forestella sing I had goosebumps and cried listening to them sing! Forestella is just amazing!
Nueva suscriptora 😊
Forestella es maravillosa, los reyes de la armonia. Y esto es en vivo, ni el propio Freddy pudo hacerlo 😅
I never understood or appreciated this song emotionally, until I heard Forestella's rendition. I cried! I had to go watch them when they came to the U.S. They sounded even better live!!! The whole time I sat there my face was in shock. Shock! My body was flushed from the sound that enveloped me!❤😮❤
Que afortunada , mi sueño es verlos cantar en mi país 🙏🏻
Tengo 66 años...me gustaría mucho escucharlos en directo...mi sueño.
Felicidades desde Islas Canarias❤
Ok ….YOU HAVE TO KNOW…FREDDIE MERCURY AND QUEEN DID NOT EVER PERFORM THE MIDDLE SECTION LIVE. They said it was too hard, so they always put a video recording on for the quadrant singing section, then they’d return with May’s guitar leading them back on stage. Forestella always does this live and kills it. You’re comparing a studio layered version with a live version for this particular section…This is FORESTELLA’s LIVE ENCORE concert performance in early 2020 of their successful 2019 Mystique Concert Tour…. LIVE!
Definitely! Queen never performed this opera section live. Forestella had a lot of effort to get all these accurate each notes.
Exactly! Freddy has a studio recorded version projected for the opera section.
Should have read your Comment before I wrote the same thing. 🙄 Freddie would have been besotted by this version by Forestella.
Please listen to their French song "Je Suis Malade". Thank you.
@@gogglebox2427 All good 👍😊The more passionate factual correction there is, the better, as far as I’m concerned! Thank you for caring enough to comment here! Keep it up! 💪… ahem .. just so you know .. i have been guilty of the same thing from time to time!😊🤪🥴Nothing wrong with being enthusiastic, right?
They are a crossover group. They are not boys but trained and accomplished vocalists who deftly operate in many genres and at least 6 languages. Two are opera singers …the basso profundo and 3rd from left both with Masters degree in voice, fourth is a trained musical theatre actor and the tenor soprano is a former research chemist with no formal music education , but is self-trained musically and up until forestella was formed he was a part-time rock-singer for a band since University days, and later for a workband in 2016, always dreaming of a career in music.This is one of their most loved performances globally for a good reason ….Forestella pays homage to the originals they cover, and the rest is their twist on the original. This is not about trying to sound like Freddie…that is never ever their intent ….how could they? The song has been rearranged quite a bit …for their 4 unique vocal abilities…..this is their version…worthy of being assessed on its own merits.
리엑션 너무 유쾌하게 잘보았습니다~^^흥미롭게 전 잘보았습니다~^^감사해요^^
Thank you for reacting to Forestella
Would love to see your reaction to their performance of "Scarborough Fair" ^^!
This was mind-blowing. WOW! I thought I loved these guys before but this takes it to the next level. Just WOW!!!
Get used to saying ‘it’s better than the original’ because this will happen multiple times with Forestella. This is the best cover I’ve heard IMO (59yr old Brit). As others have pointed out Queen never did the middle part live. Queen used multi track recording techniques whereas Forestella do it live. They harmonise beautifully which you will discover in Scarborough Fair, Warriors and Legends Never Die. Their cover of Despacito is way better than the original. Bad Romance and Shape of You are excellent.
이 노래를 불후의 명곡에서 다시 감상하시길 바랍니다
훨씬 감동적입니다
But admit to yourself that no singer in any country has covered Queen's song Bohemian Rhapsody as beautiful and amazing as Forestella's cover, right? 👍
Escuche esta versión mil veces, llevo viendo este video 5' y la reacción de ambos me hace sentir que estoy viendo a Forestella por primera vez. ¡Excelente reacción! ¡Hay cantidad de videos de este maravilloso cuarteto que van a disfrutar!
I think Forestella uses their bass in their own way very unique. Here also it stands out.
I recommend to watch their Bad Romance and Shape of you to see how the bass made the song so impactful. As both are so well known, you can feel their twist easily. Even a cover (I rather say it a "version") shows their creativity, vocal prowess and versatility. I love their interpretation and respect to the original so much.
Forestella é simplesmente fenomenal!
The counter tenor sings both male and female roles in a cover of Phantom of the Opera... Amazing!
Hello, they are just amazing ❤🎉
I’ve seen them live and easily one of the best shows I’ve ever been to
포레스텔라 그들은 각자 능력있고.앞으로 더 좋은 노래 많습니다..
I've heard bohemian rhapsody my entire live, but only in this cover that sung by Forestela i know how good this song is. In their cover. I can feel that this is not just a good song, i can even feel what the protagonists in the song felt. I feel them, i feel how their momma's feel when their son in this position😮 this cover is incredible. That's it .
Thank you for your enthusiastic and honest reaction to FORESTELLA again. I believe you shouldn't and can't compare these two "masterpieces" directly. This would probably not be the intention of these guys. On the one hand, Forestella's version is an absolute homage to Queen and this iconic song. On the other hand: It's FORESTELLA'S VERSION and they are NOT a rock band. And they nailed it! Regardless, this is a masterpiece and on par with the original. DIFFERENT but equal. (Btw., this video is a few years old and now everyone's English, especially the diction, is excellent and almost without an accent).
두분 캐미 좋네요 넘잼있게잘봤어요~♡
포레스텔라 리액션 감사합니다 👍❤😊
Cho Mingyu gave us the jackpot when he picked his group mates. ❤❤
MinGyu picked voices that complimented his the best, and presented that wishlist when the time came , but ultimately it was out of his hands as the producers were the ones who had the final say. As it turned out, he got the team he wanted 😊
@@hildommar he’s a devious clever boy. He knew what he was doing.
Speechless!!!
Forastella son fantásticos 🎉🎉
You guys need to listen to/watch Forestella member PITTA’s (the front middle guy) performance of Phantom of the Opera. He does both the female and male part. It’s mind blowing 🤯 🙌🏻
We're Forestella, a Korean crossover group
There's no need to compare, they are not Queen, and there won't be nobody like Freddie.
They are Forestella and this is a beautiful rendition to one of the most amazing songs ever. Period.
Just enjoy what this awesome singers and performers are capable to do, because yes, there are more.
However, great reaction. I'm waiting for more 😉
Regards from Mexico.
Could do without the ridiculous theatrics at the start and lessons in diction of all things… or did I miss the fact that this was an English test for the right by Forestella to sing a song in English? And for goodness sake, if you are going to nitpick as reactors then don’t nitpick by confusing the word ANNUNCIATION with the word PRONUNCIATION …the two words have totally different meanings .… the irony of it all..giving English lessons and even worse, that some people here in the comments say that Forestella is WEAK in English! That is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard…these Korean musicians are not weak in this particular language that they sing more often in than the other languages besides their native Korean,… they are constantly improving in all areas since they debuted in 2018 and also since this performance in 2020….and really their English singing did not need MASSIVE improvement at all, quite the opposite in fact…just a little tweaking here and there….which they have. And fun fact…In South Korea English is taught in schools in some cases from kindergarten, and usually from elementary school onwards and it is mandatory to learn it and it is a very basic English. Though most are not proficient in giving dissertations in it, they do understand it and can read it and can exchange pleasantries and address audiences. Forestella is more of a standout in this regard as I find their proficiency as far as singing in the language to be quite high. English is my first language, though I can speak another fluently and have studied a third and can attest that English was the hardest of the three…so let’s give them a break.😅
@@hildommarlove to see these pair of dills speak and pronounce Korean correctly
#Forestella le rindió un hermoso homenaje a Queen con esta interpretación 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
@@judithermer7969Oh I was going to add that too, but my rant was going on for too long already😅😂 …but I 💯 agree with you. Thank you for adding a very succinct comment 😊❤The thing is that these 2, like so many others, don’t do any research and so don’t know they already had a studio version on their Mystique album in 2019 and that Forestella have also consistently performed this song dozens of times of times now…and have demonstrated that they can also sing it a Capella…this is not just a one-off or fluke performance. This performance is actually at their Mystique Live Encore Concert in January 2020…coming after their successful 2019 Mystique Live Tour. And I find that some people tend to romanticise the original too, because my husband and I who always enjoyed the original, went back to listen to Queen’s version and realised what Forestella’s version brought to the table as an homage to the original. They deserve respect for actually getting more people to go and listen to the original for the first time….because shock! horror! …there are people who have not heard of Queen or Freddie Mercury
@@hildommar I find these two reactors way too smug. Was never a Queen fan and frankly cannot see the greatness of Freddie Mercury yes he could sing but for me no better than most, just my opinion. Never liked the song but do now. ❤️
This is Forestella, a crossover group from Korea
They are the winner group in the Phantom Singer ; a survival audition show to form a crossover quartet like il Divo from Korea. However as they have their own unique style.
Forestella has sung great covers like Bohemian
Rhapsody, We are the Champions, Heal the World, the Sound of Silence, My Favorite Things, Champions (mash-up of Champs league theme and Champions by Jo SuMi), Nella Fantasia, Scarborough Fair.etc etc.
[At the Phantom Singer All Stars] they sang "Time in a bottle", "Je suis
Malade" as well. "Shape of You" in English, Spanish and African Zulu is fantastic indeed.
There are so many fantastic stages from Forestella, so I would appreciate it if you could give us more reactions.
감사합니다 감사합니다 ~~♡
포레스텔라는 격이다른 뛰어난 음악가들임을 다시 느낍니다~~👍💕💕
Thanks for your amazing reaction to Forestella again!
Forestella first sang their version of Bohemian Rhapsody in the KBS Immortal Songs which is a kind of remake competition music entertainment show. It made them known to the world, and later they put it in their 2nd album titled Mystique. They had concert tour under the title Mystique. This video was filmed at the Mystique encore concert, the last of the tour.
I prefer their Immortal Songs video because we can see their acting in the performance there. Here it's too dark to see it well.. I recommend Forestella Queen's best songs compilation video on KBS Jeonju channel. There are 2 more Queen renditions in addition to the very first performed Bohemian Rhapsody by Forestella.
I still remember when I saw them with Immortal Songs version video for the first time in my life. I was like, 'How dare a never-heard group to challenge this masterpiece of Queen? Let me see how you ruin it...' and after watching their rendition I stayed in an awe. It hit me like an accident and changed my life.
You know what? They DO sound BETTER in live than any video. You can see many witnesses saying the same thing. This concert was my first time seeing Forestella in live and I couldn't believe what I experienced. Hope you can experience that when they go global tour someday.
FYI, you got a long way to go exploring Forestella. It’s too soon to get chills yet.
Check out
Je suis malade
Time in a bottle
After these songs I’ll list more for you :)
Thank you very much for your reaction!
Thanks for your reaction and I really enjoyed. This live is recorded several years ago and I can tell their recent lives get even better! I recommend their covers: Inner Universe (very experimental sound in Russian, originally Japanese animation song), Time in a bottle (Rock twist), Scarborough Fair (Great Harmonies), Je Suis Malade (Deep emotional in French), Legend Never Dies (my recent favorite). Also their original trilogy - Save our lives, Utopia (you reviewed this already), White nights - and most recent original song written by the member (counter tenor, HyungHo Kang), Snow Globe.
The middle tenor/contralto’s name is Kang Hyuongho. If you would like to hear what he can do by himself , please check out his cover of “Phantom of the opera”; he is absolutely fantastic, covering both male and female parts. It is a must see! Thank you for your reaction! Another one for you to react to would be “Je suis malade”, their cover of Lara Fabian’s song. Also fantastic!
Hi, thank you very much for your reaction to Forestella. It is good to hear various opinions.
They are a South Korean crossover quartet. When performing, the members normally stand (there are some exceptions) from left to right, Ko Woorim (bass), Kang Hyung Ho aka Pitta (tenor, countertenor), Cho Mingyo (tenor and group leader), and Bae Doohoon (baritone/ tenor).
Please listen to them sing the song Champions.
You can also listen to some of their individual performances. Kang Hyung Ho aka Pitta has done Phantom of the Opera and Too much love will kill you, Bae Doohoon has performed Defying Gravity and Despacito alone. Ko Woorim has performed the Christmas Song and one of my favourites a song called A Million Roses. It was a song used in an ost. Cho Mingyo sang The Hills Are Alive and Speechless.
I found that everything they sing, I enjoy listening too.
Así de abrumada me sentí la primera vez que escuché a Forestella cantando Bohemian Rapsody.
El arreglo y las voces son de lo mejor.
Ya lo han aclarado en otros comentarios... la sección de ópera no la cantó Freddy. Eso agrega un punto a favor de éstos 4 cantantes increíbles, que en vivo son capaces de cantar la canción completa.
Saludos!!!
Para el camisa verde que no cree que están cantando en vivo lo invito a que escuche y vea las maravillas de conciertos en vivo donde puede aclarar sus dudas sus voces son realmente increíbles ellos hacen en vivo lo que Freddy Mercury nunca lo hizo por favor conozcalon para que puedan tener más elementos para hacer un verdadero análisis sin sesgo o incredulidad alguno los invito son muchos los expertos que los han analizado y han coincidido en lo maravillosos que son el cuarteto Sur Coreano Forestella
@@marthalorenareyesbermudez6171
Justo hoy los vi cantar ese fragmento a capella a 1.5 x de velocidad. De manera impecable.
Son sumamente versátiles y talentosos.
So the bass and the tenor are both opera singers, one member is a musical actor and the countertenor has absolutely no training whatsoever. Also, Queen has never done the opera part live because it's so difficult. I have been a Queen fan my whole life and I can say without a doubt they do this song justice, but they do the opera part better. The vocals of Queen's version are mostly Freddie's layered vocals, All 4 members do not sing 99% of it was Freddie. whereas here it's just the 4 of them doing the harmonies 100% live, it isn't comparable.
분석 정확해요 👍
❤😂 forestella - holding out for a hero
If you want to experience the range of the counter tenor, Kang Hyungho, you should watch his take on the Phantom of the opera 🥰
ruclips.net/video/RUoe1e1nsnQ/видео.html
He's amazing and has no formal training ,he is a chemist and was in a rock band ,to me that's just mind boggling...I love Forestella,they are magical and blend so well ❤️🩹
그건 들으면 소름 돋게 전율이 옵니다.
Chicos me fascino su reacción, estos niños de grandiosas voces, se convirtieron en mis ídolos, y miren que tengo 60 años, Foredtella lo máximo ❗️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 amo a Foredtella😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 he de manifestar que no conozco nada, pero nada, de música, saludos desde Ciudad de México, olvide decirles, que no entiendo nada de lo que hablaron, solo hablo español😔
Freddie NEVER sang the countertenor part. Roger Taylor did. And they only ever did that middle part on tape, dubbing over and over apx 62+ times till they had to stop because the tape was wearing thin and they were running behind etc. Forestella did a MAGNIFICENT job of this! Freddie said "Do anything you want with my music..just don't make it boring" and in that sense, he MUST appreciate Forestella from whenever he's listening! 😊👍 ❤❤🌟
Exactly. All the counter tenor parts of Queen's songs were sung by Roger. His voice is crazy.
Forestella is always the best, it is a very talented band and in my personal opinion this song is better than the original..
I loved Mercury but forestella is the best quartet in the world....
I agree as a fan since 1973. Queen is Queen but Forestella is Forestella and I m a fan of them for a few year
FORESTELLA SUPERÓ EL ORIGINAL
The best cover of Bohemian Rhapsody by the best vocal group on the planet. 💯👍 And you should not forget that Queen didn't sing the middle part live. The diction can be improved of course.
Agreed. Their ability to sing in another language has grown enormously in the 3yrs since this recording. It's a testament to their work ethic and desire to constantly improve their art.
This performance is a few years old. Their diction has improved considerably now.
Así es igual cuando cantaron la cancion "despacito" algunas palabras no estaban tan claras pero si los escuchas cantar ahora la misma canción está impecable su español cosa que no es nada fácil para un coreano (ni siquiera para un gringo imagínate un coreano) por Dios como se atreven a decir que hyungho imitó a Freddy Mercury en algunas partes de la canción hyungho también es rockero su voz también puede desgarrarse ( Freddy Mercury es un grande jamás será desplazado) pero porfavor estos muchachos son exelentes no solo cantantes también son intérpretes y muy muy buenos es una lastima que estos dos tipos vengan a decir que están imitando la actuacion a Queen. Y tal cual Queen jamás cantó la parte lírica en vivo, forestella la canta cada presentación y es totalmente en vivo, en varios videos de ellos la an cantando a capella, gracias a dios existe forestella en un mundo actual lleno de autotune.
Agree with you 💯 re Forestella being the best vocal group on the planet, but I have to add that I have heard so many artists of all persuasions and some of a certain prominence use terrible diction while singing and for most of those, English was their only language they speak or sing in, no-one batted an eyelid or nit-picked about it like some are doing here with this South Korean Crossover group, Forestella. It’s the first time I’ve heard anyone say their diction was distracting…sounds nit-picky to me. Most acknowledge the difficulty of the Korean alphabet lacking certain letters that are in the English alphabet but add that they understood every word clearly.🤔
I can agree to some degree on your comment. And it’s good that you also acknowledge that it does not fair to compare a studio version and a live performance. If you do the Queen reaction for this song, please do the Freddie Mercury’s live performance to really see the comparison of the performances. What makes Forestella great is their amazing singing skill, voices blending, emotion delivery and the song arrangement in their live performance.
You guys should check their cover for Je Suis Malade and Time in a Bottle.
So great to see that you feel it too. That sensation that overwhelms you when they sing to your soul. I think you guys will love Scarborough Fair (another classic), Legends Never Die (OST from the game League of Legends), Champions UEFA theme song) and Warriors (Imagine Dragons cover). Looking forward to more
Estoy viendo esta reacción entendiendo a medias lo que dicen (no hay subtitulo disponible) pero sus expresiones, reacciones y gestos, me dejan saber que están disfrutando de los maravillosos Forestella. Les recomiendo "Time in a bottle" les volará la cabeza.
Actually, in the original the countertenor parts sings drummer Roger Taylor, who sang all the high notes in their Queen songs.
i hope you react to more forestella and more often 😁 je suis malade, time in a bottle and hijo de la luna are my fav live covers of them 💙
Loved your reaction.
I saw something featuring Brian Mays recently. The opera section was a multitrack. The 4 in Queen sang the section over and over and several tracks are combined to make it sound like a full choir. Brilliant for that time, and always used even in their live performances.
But it not the same as these 4 singers singing the same section live.
Thanks for your reaction and analysis! Easily my favorite "Bohemian Rhapsody" cover! Please check out Forestella's performances of "Je Suis Malade" and "Time in a Bottle" next.
PERFECTION! Just like Despacito, Inner Universe, Legends never die, etc.........
Have you heard White Night? 😍😍
@@sydneymarshall3204 O yes, I have. I've been a fan for
Sorry. Been a fan for about 5 years. Never miss a clip, video or song of Forestella.
@@bear_fan527 🥰🥰
Forestella es el mejor grupo de cover del mundo, maravillosa sus interpretaciónes, sublimes. ❤❤❤❤
Amo o grupo Forestella. A junção do Bájo, barítono, tenor e contra tenor me encantou. Só ouvia sertanejo e agora só Forestella. Me inscrevi e dei o like. Ahh, não entendo de música, mas a harmonia dos 4 me encantou. ❤🇧🇷🙌 Veja O Pitta cantando solo O fantasma da Opera. Incrível mudar a voz daquele jeito.
Leggiero tenor + musical actor + rocking soprano + basso profondo= perfecto
Loved your enthusiastic reaction. Prepare to get many many more goosebumps from Forestella. I personally think they are the best vocal group in the world. Not only are their harmonies heavenly but they always put their own unique spin on a song while being respectful to the original. Quite often (almost always actually) I prefer Forestella’s version to the original.
Also I believe that English isn’t actually their second language in that they don’t really speak it - from what I’ve seen they just practice really hard (someone correct me if I’m wrong). They also sing covers in Spanish, French, Russian, Zulu & they don’t speak these languages either. They are just really good.
For more goosebumps moments check out Scarborough Fair, Je Suis Malade, Hijo de la Luna & Inner Universe.
They have many covers in Italian and Latin too. Cho Mingyu has done some exceptional Argentinian tango’s as well.
Actually they speak English just fine albeit with an accent. MinGyu the leader is the most proficient, followed by Woorim the bass, then Doohoon and HyungHo. It’s not a language required to be spoken on a daily basis by them, so confidence has been more the issue but have been working on that.
para mi son espectaculares cantan a su estilo y sus arreglos son impresionantes Forestella lo mejor
During the opera part, the high pitch is actually sang. That gentleman has a four octave range. He is a countertenor
Thank you for your reaction to Forestella.👍 I find it difficult to compare the 2 songs. I have tried several times. But I also think that the middle is best with Queen. But I agree with you that the second and fourth songs at the end have some great clear notes. They have done covers of Time in a Bottle, Despacito, Bad Romance and Legends Never Die. ❤🔥 The break at the end is because they love drama.
the middle part is better in the Queen version because it was never sung live by only 4 voices
They sang better than original..my thought😍😍😍
"take a nap" best advice ever when your mind is blown or you can't deal with reality ;P
Obrigada por reagirem ao grupo FORESTELLA.
O que voces precisam entender sobre o grupo FORESTELLA, é que apesar de ser um grupo crossover, eles transformam tudo que tocam, e dão um toque pessoal a cada musica que interpretam, muitas vezes acrescentando instrumentos e cantando em outras lingas como fizeram com Shape of You.
Onde cantaram em 3 idiomas.
Peço apenas que antes de saírem julgando o trabalho deles, vocês os conheçam melhor.
A musica Time in a Bottle é outra obra prima a qual eles simplesmente fizeram se tornar ainda mais inesquecível do que ja era... todos que já avaliaram ficaram boquiabertos com seus talentos e com o que eles fizeram nas músicas.
Reconhecendo seu talento e respeitando o seu trabalho.
fica a dica.
Os ouçam sem fazer comparações, apenas apreciem o talento vocal deles, suas harmonias e os arranjos que fazem em cada musica que interpretam. 😊
👍❤
I've been a fan of Queen since before they were famous. THIS is how Freddie would have seen it in his head, given his love of Opera. Queen never sang the middle bit live. They left stage, whilst a video of the middle section played, returning with Brian coming back playing his guitar. I'm going to say it too... When Cho Mingyu sang "Mama just killed a man", as a mum, it really 😭
For me, "Je suis malade" is my favourite Forestella song. Get the tissues ready if you React to it. 😭
대한민국 가수 소향도 있습니다 꼭 한번 들어보시길 바래요
Freddy mercury did not do the opera section live.
And Roger Taylor sang the highest notes, NOT Freddie. It takes 4 men to do what Freddie and Roger did.
They have a studio version of this song - they "paid the fee".
¿Por qué comparar? Es mejor disfrutar este increíble homenaje a Queen sin olvidar que quienes cantan en vivo, son coreanos. Son maravillosos y cada cover que hacen muestra su respeto por la versión original, y hacen propio lo que cantan. Son absolutamente fabulosos.
Love your reactions.
I love you guys reaction! Literally shocked face. I subscribed and follow you guys. Please update more Forestella videos and let more people enjoy their voice❤
NICE~~~

Impresionante homenaje a Queen por #Forestella fue tan emocionante! La parte operistica solo lo hizo Queen en video nunca lo pudo hacer en vivo por la dificultad , en cambio Forestella la canta con tanta facilidad en vivo y es maravilloso! Sus increíbles voces pueden cantar cualquier canción con cualquier nivel de dificultad, son los mejores del mundo!!! ❤❤❤❤ Increíble interpretación 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I am obsessed with your reaction i am so happy
Conozcanlo por favor este cuarteto Sur Coreano llamado Forestella compuesro por Baritono Bae Doo Hoon, Bajo Ko Woorim, tenor lirico Cho Mingyu lider, contra tenor y soprano Kang Hyung Ho y estan canrando en vivo les invito a que los estudien mas para crean y sepan lo que son capaces de hacer solo con sus voces entiendo la incredulidad del camisa verde porque esta acostumbrado a todos lis seudos cantantes que trabajan con autotum y con inteligencia artificial con son casi todos los que conocemos en el medio musical ellos no usan nada de eso y por eso les invito que los conozcsn para aclarar sus dudas cientos de cossch internacionales ya los han estado analizando y han salido de sus dudas ello han hecho en vivo lo que Fredy Mercury nunca hizo por favor salgan de dudas busquen sus conciertos y veran lo maravillosos que son e impresionantes que son sus voces privilegiadas
👍😅😅 we like your true reaction. very thanks.🙏💜👍👍💕💕🥰
This is not entirely a true reaction…. some errors and misconceptions need to be addressed for new and future Forestella fans who might read this. And the silly theatrics of falling on the floor in ‘amazement ‘ is just insincere. Forestella’s english in this performance is just brilliant for people who do not speak english as a first language. Diction issue? … where? 1 or 2 letters are not an issue… They are South Korean and are native speakers of that language. There are plenty of musicians today that do not pronounce their lyrics clearly… and one particularly high profile one. Forestella do not pretend to be flawless english speakers/singers. However, Not one person listening to this performance can honestly say they did not understand every word in this song here. In fact Forestella is usually praised for their excellent english and their pronunciation. It is actually laughable to criticise someone whose 2nd language is English using incorrect English …the word pronunciation and NOT annunciation is the word they should have used. THEY HAVE TWO ENTIRELY DIFFERENT MEANINGS. It is a fact. These 2 men only speak American English, criticising a band that sings fluently in 7 languages albeit with a very slight accent. Forestella is not trying to copy or outdo Freddie or Queen… or sit for an English proficiency test! ….what they do is pay homage via a cover of the original… they make it their own version because they have to arrange the music according to their voices’ dynamics. I do believe that people can like or dislike a cover performance of their favourite songs according to preference , that is their right , but there is no need to nitpick and clownishly critique to this degree JUST to make a point. Queen never did perform the middle of this song live on stage .. ever! They admitted it was too difficult and put on a multi track recording for that quadrant part, left the stage and then May would lead them back on again with his guitar playing. It is a fact.
FORESTELLA ALWAYS SINGS THE ENTIRE SONG LIVE… especially that difficult part that Queen couldn’t do live. Forestella have done it countless times now and this global viral video is how many ,now devoted fans , discovered them. They deserve some respect for producing such a worthy rendition of this iconic song as well as We Are The Champions and We Will Rock You
오리지널과 비교된다는것 자체가 대단한 칭찬아닌가요?
Sometimes it translates as faint praise…you know..a bit like ..someone patting you on the head and saying : there, there, at least you tried. You’ll never be better than Freddie Mercury or Queen ….oh and by the way I’m going to ignore the fact that your English is pretty darn good and I’m going to nitpick your diction in 1 or 2 spots of a 6minute long song. We all know Forestella pays homage to the original artists they cover and make their own version of it with arrangements to suit 4 voices..they never pretend to be the artist or seek to outdo them…how could they? And the theatrics on the floor insincerely saying it’s the best thing they ever heard but then proceed to nitpick about the English language while themselves using incorrect language ie annunciation instead of pronunciation🙄 Look everyone can have their artist preferences, but honest and fair critique should still be delivered without exaggeration.
My recommendations would be Hijo de la Luna (in Spanish and Korean) and Je Suis Malade (in French). Both showcase all their voices and harmonies really well.
I m an old fan of Queen from beginning but I agree your reaction,especially Mr Big Beard! Greetings from Belgium🇧🇪🍀🍀🍀
Welcome to the channel! Always glad to meet people of class, taste, and intelligence.

Lol
Se han fijado que existen estos seres que están llevando el canto y la música a la perfección, Forestella, Dimash Kudaibergien. Qué son de otro mundo. 😊😊😊😊 Mientras otros matan la música 😢
initially I wanna say how phenomenal they are and recommend this & that for watching or reacting to. then I realize that it is meaningless. instead you guys should use your ears to find it out yourselves if interested enough. it doesn't matter it is a cover or their own song, you will enjoy it all. BTW they do sing in Korean (their own), Spanish, English, Italian and Zulu (an African language, of course only once in a song)
The important thing is they did a amazing job. It doesn't matter how they sang it. Listen to them because they are just to great not too. Love them!❤
Welcome to the Forestella world you have many to see that you can analyze Smoothth Criminal, Time in a bottle, Champions, Parlapiu Piano, Hijo de la Luna (son of the Moon), We are champions, Je Suis Malade, "Nella Fantasia" Korean song "Silla's Moonlight" If I leave, The Face that I Miss,Phantom of the opera,Time In A Bottle and bad romance and more

Never have I heard anything like this in my life, absolutely brilliant. From Australia
❤❤❤👍👍👍
They are not competing with Freddie, they are putting their own stamp on it as with all their other versions of songs. They are unique with their harmonies and vocals.
I love your honest reaction actually. Even it sometimes different from mine.
Don't push yourself to just compliments.
After just watching the live original version for comparison, I agree with everyone that Queen's version is iconic, and I agree that Freddie is a good singer, but I disagree with one of you stating that he's a better vocalist than any one of them individually. Not a chance 😅. I'm not a musician, but I've grew up listening to many singers (western and korean) in my 50-plus life, and I wouldn't consider Freddie as a great vocalist in my humble opinion.
You also have to take into consideration that they're singing in a language that's not native to them. I would love to see an english speaking singer sing an iconic korean song with all the diction and correct pronunciations and all the other musical jargons. That would be very interesting or maybe even a little comical because english and korean language are night and day different. I speak both languages fluently.
I got goosebumps when I first heard the forestella's version. They are just fantastic. Even the quadrant part, I think forestella nailed it, and everything was LIVE. It's all around the best cover I've heard so far.
I would love if you reacted to Forestella's Inner Universe. Its so epic and has that movie/visual feast and ear candy wall of sound that you seemed to enjoy from Utopia. It's one of my favourites from them ❤
