BARCELONA was inspired by Freddie’s favorite opera singer Montserrat Caballe’ hometown Barcelona, Spain! This was a musical love affair between these two icons of music. The album is wonderful and now you gotta check out my favorite song off the album … THE GOLDEN BOY!! Thank you! 🙋♀️
They are magnificent! Wonderful heartfelt reaction! They did a whole album together: "How Can I Go On?", "The Golden Boy", "La Japonaise" and more. They loved, trusted and admired each other. Thank goodness he got to fulfill his dream of making music with his idol, Montserrat, before he passed away.
@@POPE. Fun fact he has four extra incisors behind his normal teeth's which led to deformity. He never get it fix because he believed it give him his incredible four octave range.
Goes to show you what a legend Freddie was, how many other rockers could stand next to the BEST female opera singer and hold their own beside her.... zero...I believe would be the answer...lol They adored one another. I believe and don't put it in stone, but I believe this song was written for Montserrat, when he sings, 'The moment you stepped into the room, you took my breath away" singing of the day they first met in Barcelona to talk about doing a collaboration, he was such a huge fan of hers and she ended up adoring him as well, and you can see it with their interaction on stage.
Wow 🔥 darling!!! Thankyou for this reaction. Freddie was amazingly versatile. And Montserrat so beautiful. R.I.p. two beautiful souls and artists. Please keep Queen/Freddie reactions coming, you won’t regret it. Much bless youngman!!
Thanks for such a great reaction!! Yes, they enjoyed collabing so much together, she suggested they do an entire album together... phenomenal music... and Freddie's lifelong dream of singing opera. Yes, it truly was 'a kind of magic', 'heaven-sent' and 'a miracle'!! See how life reflects life and comes full circle... she wanted the song to be dedicated to the Barcelona Olympics in 1992, but unfortunately Freddie did not live long enough to see this happen. She refused to sing the song with anyone else, so they played the recording of the song during the opening ceremony intro... Thanks again for your reaction and will be anxiously awaiting your next video, please keep'em comin'!!
I can see when music moves a person's soul. I saw that in your reaction. Pure joy. I loved your reaction and seeing how powerful this music was for you too. Simply spectacular performance and production. I am an Olympic junkie. This was intended for the opening of the Barcelona Olympic Games in 1992. Freddie told Montsy that he wouldn't last that long. Unfortunately, he didn't live to see the Barcelona games. They recorded this earlier to be able to share it with Montserrat's home town of Barcelona!
Me encantó su reacción. Ver a estos dos monstruos es un placer, es un orgullo como ser humano ver, escucharlos. Por mucho que los vea no puedo con la emoción, me supera. ❤️
I could spend hours and hours complimenting them both but still would not do them justice how wonderful and sublime they were singing together may they both rest in peace
Wow you said “Monsy’s “ as Freddie called her - her name very well. She is an incredible opera soprano diva. She and Freddie became great friends and went from creating one song to singing an entire album that is gorgeous. Freddie and Monserrats’ voices blend heavenly.
Freddie was so much more than a simple rock singer with a wide vocal range. It was his dream to collaborate with Montserrat who was one of the greatest sopranos. Freddie and his friend Mike Moran have composed a whole duet album. She really loved Freddie's ideas and they became good friends, too. This was the first crossover between a rock star and an opera diva in the history.
Great reaction! They did a whole album together, it is a great album. Check out Exercises in Free Love, it is a demo Freddie made for Montserrat to give her an idea about what he had in mind. Freddie sings her soprano parts in the demo. Check out The Golden Boy, The Fallen priest, Guide Me Home/ How can I go on and Ensueno. This was the first collaboration between a contemporary singer and an opera singer. Monserrat is one of the best opera sopranos of all time next to Maria Callas. Freddie basically invented the pop, opera genre with this album.
The song was made before Montserrat Caballe. It was the B side to The Great Pretender...but you are right in that he sent this track to Montserrat to hear....
@@bluebell3720 Peter Freestone said when they first met Freddie had the song with him and said to her did she want to hear it? There are so many things out there....but the song had been done before meeting Montserrat and yes, it was the one he showed her, however that happened? Lol....
@@sharonallforloveandpositiv5497 Mike moran and beach have told the story It was meant to be an ice braker He thought she would find it funny but dhe misunderstood and thought it was a gift
Freddie was and still is the greatest singer of all time, you don’t just hear the song you feel in your soul, love that you enjoyed this. Freddie and Monserrat became very close friends. Another song that is must from this album is How Can I Go On another beautiful collaboration.
Great reaction..you have to look at Fashion Aid....where Freddie modelled..also the video where he is dancing with the Royal Ballet...he also designed the Queen logo...he included their four sign of the Zodiac in it..Freddie was mega talented 🤩
I love Fashion Aid...with Jane Seymore.I seen her do an interview and she had to show something she was so proud of...it was the picture of their pretend wedding.
I know . . . absolutely spectacular. They did this and so I've learned operatic vocals aren't supposed to be discernible. So Freddie's words were clear while Montserrat's reached my ears as simply ultra beautiful music. Great reaction. Thanks.
Good, weren't they? There are at least two others from that album filmed- "How Can I Go On?" and "The Golden Boy" that you will love. Did you ever think a year or so back that you would ever watch a Rock singer and an Opera singer making such wonderful music... and that you might actually enjoy it? Good for you, Pope- peace.
I love the Barcelona album especially How Can I Go On? & Guide Me Home. I also recommend you watch the videos of them being interview ed together on Ibiza & some where she speaks about their expert & friendship. They worked on the music in 1987- 88. He already had AIDS & confided in her. She kept the secret. I also learned that the composer of PhAntom of the Opera wanted Freddie to sing it & Freddie & Montsy were hoping to record it He became too ill, but she recorded song from.it & played it to him.on the phone.
@ popenyco: I saw a clip for Freddie's vocal range that was 7 minutes long a few years back. I don't see it anymore, but there'a 26-minute clip that you might like even more.
Thank you! This is, as you said "stunning" - these two artists were totally in love! I hope you will listen to some of their other collaborations (Freddie wrote a whole album) -- one of my favorites is "How can I go on" -- ruclips.net/video/ksNoe8W2jTc/видео.html
Freddie was classsically trained when he was younger (I know the piano) not sure how far he took it! I'm sure he had vocal training, because he had a wide voal range and he could sing anything.
Your reactions are so much fun! I really enjoy your channel and I've decided I'd like to adopt you 🤣 Since Freddie is my spirit animal... I think we'd get along great. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and gobble till you wobble I'll be right here waiting for your next reaction ☮
Great reaction to a Amazing performance! Would love to introduce you to a mind blowing greatest singer on the planet! Dimash Kudaibergen! He’s a rising star and there is no other like him, every performance will leave you breathless, pleas check out his performance Stranger, and I’m pretty sure once he hear this amazing singer you will want to see more😊 thank you
Beautiful.
Freddie and Montsy are singing in heaven now.
This was the opening song for the Barcelona Olympic Games sadly Freddie had already passed.
Just another Freddie Masterpiece. He and Monserrat gave us this prefomance for all time. Perfection. Two super stars!!!!
This was my favorite reaction to this song. You obviously have a true love for music....thank you ❤️

Don't forget, that Freddie was an untrained singer next to an opera diva which makes their collaboration even more precious.
Wow self taught genius!
@@POPE. Fun fact he has four extra incisors behind his normal teeth's which led to deformity. He never get it fix because he believed it give him his incredible four octave range.
No he was traint in Switzerland, to do the album whit Monserrate!!
@@Pedgo1986 Well it is utterly stupid. It might have influenced his tone, certainly not his range.
Himno Olimpiadas BARCELONA 1992 ❤️
Impresionante ‼️

Hello from Cody Wyoming! You are fast becoming one of my favorite reactors... you're awesome keep it up🤠
thank you!
Freddie was classsically trained when he was younger (I know the piano)
not sure how far he took it! I'm sure he had vocal training, because he had a wide voal range and he could sing anything.
No vocal training just born talent. Bryan May Freddie seemed to sing better the more he sang and had a metronome in his brain.
I subscribed just by watching you
watching them. Glad to be here.
Since you enjoyed this, try, How Can I Go On, with Freddy and Montserrat,
Do The Golden Boy! You won't be sorry!
Please react to Freddie and Montserrat’s Golden Boy. It’s opera meets gospel.
Your reactions are so much fun! I really enjoy your channel and I've decided I'd like to adopt you 🤣 Since Freddie is my spirit animal... I think we'd get along great. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and gobble till you wobble I'll be right here waiting for your next reaction ☮
