Freddie Mercury was a man of many talents and many different sides. The songs he wrote for and with Queen filled stadiums around the globe and have rightly gone down in history, but he also embarked on a solo career that took him from the clubs of Munich and New York to the great opera houses of the world.
He was the ultimate showman, but he kept his private life away from the prying eyes of the media; a larger than life rock star who loved disco, classical music and ballet. He was a restless spirit, a true chameleon who revelled in his own contradictions.
All the different sides of this iconic musician can be found on Freddie Mercury: Messenger Of The Gods - The Singles. All formats released September 2nd 2016.
This wonderful 1987 video, capturing Freddie Mercury's unforgettable collaboration with Spanish opera diva Montserrat Caballé, accompanied the very first single from the 'Barcelona' album (which was to follow a full year later). This unexpected and unlikely merging of talent took the world by storm, and this was the first of three singles released from the album. The Director was David Mallet and it was filmed at Pinewood Studios in London. The single was released in the UK on 26th October 1987.

Be a good person in life. Because when you get to heaven, these angels will be singing live for you!
I was thinking the same…this is what you hear when you enter heaven!
You can see on Montserrat's face how much she is enjoying singing with Freddie ❤they are singing like two angels together
He tried for years to put this tune together with her it's a mix masterpiece

But he didnt look very often to her eyes…. Anyway amazing 😍👌
No puedo evitar emocionarme con esta obra de arte, a parte no solo admiro a estos increíbles artistas si no como catalana que soy esta canción me toca de lleno. ❤
I get goosebumps whenever I hear this timeless classic.
Mir geht jedes Mal ein Schauer über den Rücken! Es ist unglaublich, was für eine Dynamik, Kraft und Verbundenheit existiert. Das Projekt hat sich ausgezahlt. Klassik meets Rock. Wonderful!
Freddie said she was the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen, I agree.
So do I. RIP to both of them.🙏😓🙏
Humildad Montserrat caballet, de padres humildes y trabajadores, .
Una beca le cambio la vida, por ke era y es un gran voz.
Visca Catalunya, la tierra de esta Diva y gran Mujer❤
Everybody is commenting about Freddie but forgetting that Montserrat is legend herself. And she is so underrated.
right i agree :)
She is awesome bu no one can beat freddie mercury
Underrated? By who? aka La Superba.
@aileen wournos this is certainly not your name.
I know zero about Opera, Except the power of the voice it’s equal to no musical instrument I believe it was her graciousness to sing with Freddie mercury who may have been at the top of his Genre - I don’t think anyone in the history of music has ever done anything so beautiful
On last Saturday, my mother has left this planet.
She loved them both. My mother was 95. At the funeral this song was played.
Duet wszechczasów cudownie
All of us who read your words extend to you our sincere condolences.
Thank you very much! @@VideoWatcher2280
May her memory be a blessing. What a special song to honor her.
@@MeredithAnne88 Thank you for your kind words!
Clearly she hits notes most people could only dream of...but her TIMING is just bloody impeccable
Their chemistry together is flawless.
Supposedly, it was his approach to her with the idea of the song, how had carefully planned out the song that endeared her to him.
She said the same about Freddie. Her timing is based on Freddies compositions.
Magnifique duo et superbe interprétation de Montserrat Caballé et Freddy Mercury c'est très beau ❤
Her range and delivered effortlessly with such beautiful precision.
One of the 3 great sopranos in her day. She was nicknamed La Superba.
Just as they sang at the end...friends until the end... She adored him and he her. Now they are probably singing together for all the angels to hear.
man can u imagine that choir?!!!!!
"And if God willing we will meet again, someday".
This is not a song; this is a monument.
is a jewel
Couldn’t have put it better myself Daniel. This will live forever. It was a gift to us
I agree with Jane Kirk - this is a monument that will continue to stand. It was also a moment in time.

wrong its a piece
Now they are both singing with the Angels....✨✨✨

Well.... Freddie did say he wanted to go to hell.

Barcelona '92 is probably the peak of Olympics as a cultural event
What's also worth noting is that, contrary to some other cities that organised the Olympics, everything built for the event is still in use. The Olympic stadium dated from 1929, and FC Barcelona currently play there. The swimming pool is still in use, and the Olympic Village is now an up-market residential area. There's very much a before and an after 1992 in Barcelona.
In case you're wondering, we took a bus tour yesterday, and this was all explained. Woke up in Ciutat Vella this morning, to the sound of birdsong, and arrived from El Prat just a couple of hours ago.
Agree. The most memorable Olympics event
Two Queens, Two Divas... What a duet!
One of the most memorable moments in music/theatre history.
Underrated comment. I appreciate the creativity.
Sod off calling Freddie Mercury a queen. Dick
Yes ..but the bands name was Queen ..and I'm an Irish Queen also
.love u and miss u Freddie ❤

Can we just take a moment to appreciate Montserrat's majestic voice
Very underrated. Seen a lot of comments talking about Freddie only. Surprising.
Absolutely fantastic woman.
@@mgscoelho Be the change the world needs or stop crying
If you feel so inclined even pompous...she is truly one of a kind
even with a singer like mercury present, i just find female voices extraordinary
Freddie could literally have sung anything in any genre. A true legend.
Indeed. There are not many Rock singer who could perform next to an opera legend and not look like school boys.

Facts!
Exactly....it could be anything is right...He might have been the best voice of our generation...gone to soon💜🎶

Gerade möchte man noch an dieser Welt verzweifeln und dann sowas 🥰
Unbeschreiblich ... Demut und Schönheit 😌
Two angels, das beschreibt es wohl am besten 😇🙏
👍 perfecto
Montserrat’s voice is amazing. She fills the whole room with sound. The power of her voice could knock down a wall.
And Freddie stays with her all the way. As someone said, he can sing anything.
Apparently Montserrat Caballé was one of the only people that could match Freddie in the showoff diva department, and Freddie has stated that he was both a fan of her and opera in general. Singing a duet with one of your heroes like that, that man was seriously living the dream.
And he deserved to
Couldn't have said that better myself!😊🥰
He was dying there just imagine if he was fit c
Yes he was. His own personal dream. It makes you believe in hope and all the good things Freddie wrote about. Good post
I saw a documentary from a Japanese channel and Montserrat said there she wouldn't do Barcelona with another one unless she sees someone really special out there
It's the year 2020...and i really think there won't be another duet like this in the history of modern music. Freddie, Montserrat...thank you, forever.
I have to agree and I think it's because no one has ever made such a mix of rock and classic opera.
closest thing we have these days is ed sheeran and Bocelli's Perfect Symphony
No because today's music artists do not know what music's about
True you ca`t find another. Here both can sign.;]
Alex Emme .pure bliss x
There's a reason why they call Caballe "La Superba"! The queen of opera and the queen of rock n' roll unite!
“We will meet again some day”
I’m sure you both did, Rest In Peace Freddie and Montserrat ❤️
God bless them both 🙏
Montserrat don't die in 2018
@@PabloSanchez-rq6krShe died on 6 October 2018
What a gift they left us here ❤..
I almost cry lol, I read this at the same time they sing this part
What makes this thrilling is Freddy's muscular vocals combined with Caballe's beautiful but equally powerful voice. She matches him in sheer firepower, moves like the wind, and can hold a note longer than a mortgage company.
This is a great comment!
@@katrinablackwell5174 Thank you. I'm not an opera specialist, nor much interested in rock music, but they were an inspired duo. It's the magic of the music that brought them together. Freddy said that Monstserrat "IS music", and I have no doubt that this is true for both of them. If only they had recorded more-- Freddy in opera and Caballe in pop music. For them, It's like turning on a faucet, and the music pours out.
"hold a note longer than a mortgage company." ahahahah
@@williamdonahue6617 Well said! Only just noticed the lyrics & song is like a tribute to their collaboration & adoration.
The voice of a soprano is much more powerful than that of any singer. I love Freddie, but MC is another level.
Freddie, this was the song you were born to write.
But Freddie, when you died you took my heart with you and I've never been able to feel again. I'm an empty shell shuffling around. I miss you.
The goosies i get when i hear this song are just unreal ..........wow
This duet is not talked about enough.
I NEVER KNEW ABOUT IT !!! i am shocked

What is there to say, what good would talking about it do?
but, we know it's here & can share it 'til it catches on
Ohh my gosh how amazing this duet their voice both fantastic
1:51 That Freddie voice.. untouchable.
The whole thing is fantastic but yes that moment is Freddie par excellence. spine tingling
Queen and Fredy's fan... but, Montserrat is a legend, what a voice!
Everything about this song is so magical and majestic. Freddie Mercury and Montserrat singing together is so powerfull and beautiful
Parece aqueles sonhos que a gente sonha e não quer acordar de tão lindo que é .❤❤❤❤❤
I believe this is maybe the bravest thing ever attempted by any artist . Forever a queen fan

The combination of the two genres enhance them both.

This performance in the opening of the Olympic games in Barcelona is a forever song
Somehow I've never heard or seen this before. Absolutely jaw-dropping. Freddy was like a human supernova that burnt out far too soon.
"...the best years of my life were like a supernova..." (C) Khassogi ship
his name is freddie not freddy
This song was performed and recorded to celebrate the Barcelona Olympics in 1992.
@@piscesempress1978his real name is Farrokh.
Montserrat adored Freddie and you could see it when they sang together. He adored her too. What a wonderful match!
I thought that. You can just see in her face she is totally enjoying herself being on stage with Freddie
Sad that they were only on playback together. Freddie had voice issues in 1987 at that time.
Да, они были в Восхищении друг от друга, поэтому дуэт божественный!Как они смотрят друг на друга: восхищение талантом, а у Монсеррат ещё и любовь, как у более великой, да ещё и женщины! Сколько слушаю - только слёзы восторга!!!))
I love how they were both completely themselves, and at the same time are so comfortable working with someone from such a different musical world. Each of them was a genius and a diva in their own way, yet they shared the stage and worked together seamlessly. This was a moment for the world to treasure.
Couldn't agree more!
That's the power of music and of friendship. As a testament to how close they became on a personal level, she knew about what he was dealing with at the time, and only a small handful of people could claim that.
They almost certainly would have done more work together professionally too if... well, if Freddie had more time. I read somewhere that they wanted to do The Phantom of the Opera.
Agreed!!!
Well said
@@odinfromcentr2 It was meant that they should perform the song at the Olympics in Barcelona but Freddie told her he thought he couldn't make it.He understood she thought he didn't want to so he told her why.She wanted to visit him the last months but he said he wasn't presentable.I think it was a song from Phantom of the opera she had recorded for him she played for him over the phone.And later she sent him the recording.
When I was kid, this didn't really float my boat, but as I grown up, I can give Freddie huge kudos for this project. At the time I remember him saying something like 'I challenge any other rock singer to make an album with a genine opera diva and survive!' - he wasn't wrong - he's totally holding his own with Monserrat, and moreover they're singing his own material. He's doing what he loves and he knows he's doing it damn well!
The lady and the scoundrel. So beautyful.
i love how montserrat and freddie actually look like they are having real fun singing this :D
WCML Traction : they did. Follow that chain of thought to find out more.
@@tonybrooks8677 They loved each other! I remember how well they thought of each other. Both brilliant artists - matchless talents! Incredible!
They were having the time of their life! They grew so close and Freddie's dream of composing and singing an opera came true..... God Bless you both.#Montsy#Freddie#Barcelona
@@arslp Montsy actually sang at Freddie's funeral, which was an extremely private affair. I know he would have been happy...They did it. There is such a beautiful love/friend story here..❤❤
#RIP. To Monserrat Caballe'.
Freddie Mercury was a freaking music genius and an excellent singer. His was the only one to be on par with an opera voice. This was an incredible performance.
I agree, though I think maybe the young Elvis could have made it too. If you listen to the notes he hits on "It's Now Or Never"
Geoff Tate
So many people talking about Freddie (alright) but forgetting about Montserrat is a bit disrespectful to me. I mean, come on. Excellent DUO
adam lambert or axl rose could have too , axl rose have 7 octaves in hes vocal
Not true at all, plenty of contemporary vocalists could easily establish that.
Perhaps the ONLY time Freddie's voice was overcome by another. A Queen of Opera with the Queen of Queen. Majestic.
There was a time when truly phenomenal music was created.
Freddie mercury is the greatest of all time. End of discussion.
period.
It's really!!! Great!!!!!!!!!
Yes
No one comes close
Freddie and Michael Jackson
Can we appreciate how each performer's body-language perfectly encapsulates their singing style? Montserrat, flowing, graceful, hands open and inviting. Freddie, quick, powerful, direct, clenched fists evoking strength.
God what splendid performers.
I notice that too but didn't know how to articulate it. Thanks for pointing that out!
I too appreciate you pointing this out about their body language/movements. They are both perfection. He is a god.

Montserrat is probably the greatest female singer ever. I guess singing with her would be like playing football with Pele yet Freddy is anything but intimidated. What a great performance to leave behind. People will still be listening to this hundreds of years from now.

How many artists today can hold their own singing opera? I can probably count them on one hand. A true talent lost too early.
Rachel Welty Have you heard Nicole Scherzinger and David Garrett do Lo ti penso Amore.? She has an incredible voice too.
@@reencarl8998 no but I'll check it out
Nicole Scherzinger (she did actual opera, Carmen i think), Nick Jonas (he did Les Mis), and Josh Groban literally stood in for Pavarotti.
None as great as this masterpiece. I wouldn't even need a hand to count on. In fact, the numbers are probably in the negatives.
He's not singing opera here, but rather singing with an opera singer. Freddie was an incredible talent. I love the fact that he loved all kinds of music, including opera. This performance of "Barcelona" is truly something special.
Dopo più di 30 anni non ho ancora deciso chi dei due é il più fuoriclasse 😍
Две звезды вселенского масштаба, как будто два ангела. Исполнение мороз по коже, великолепно, браво.

Как человек которому под 60 и пел еще в СССР- всякие крейсер аврора на тв - это не люди а Боги в музыке.....И почему разные школы - Фредди таки оперный певец ...
@@aspirinaspirin2220Фредди, рок-певец. Он не поёт, а кричит. Это не критика, а факт.
Фредди ни разу не оперный. У оперных певцов совершенно другое звукоизвлечение. Он мог бы стать великим оперным певцом, но не захотел.
Так любое пение это контролируемый крик.
I agree with you…and anyone who limits themselves to only one genre of music is simply robbing themself of beautiful musical experiences. 🕊
Being able to hold his own while singing with an actual opera singer just goes to further prove how great Freddie was. What an exceptional human being that man was. Amazing performance from both of them.
An AMAZING performance from both of them yesss. AGREE.🌹🌹
It's so sad that both of them are gone. They were exelennt.🌹🌹
Madre mía !! Que bonitas voces
Que viva la música . 👏👏👏👏
And not just any opera singer...this is the Montserrat Caballe
Being able to sing with her with full blown aids. By this point Freddie knew he not only had aids but that he would die soon. Before one of these concerts with her, he was extremely ill. The doctor wanted him to cancel because he was so sick but Freddie refused and the show went on.

More like the greatest showman and front man of any generation!
Yes , I agree , so sad that now he could’ve lived a normal life
she didnt just adore him she LOVED him as a true friend.....she was present with his mother in montreaux, geneva, when they unveiled his memorial statue and she was in tears! she sadly passed recently also........both are among the other gods and goddesses right now!
Happy Birthday to a legend - always loved, always missed.
One of the Perfect Things in existence
Sadly, this was the beginning of Freddie Mercury's decline in health. But no matter how bad it got, he still fought to the finish and made awesome music. He refused to let it taint his spirit. What a bloke!

Let's say that Mercury was super lucky to sing with her... I love this performance, but I particularly love it because of Montserrat Caballé. Such a wonderful voice...
So true. ❤
It's a 50/50 contribution of both into an absolute perfection
That's why Freddie was so attractive to her it was her spectacular voice!
Hey everybody give Montserrat some love! She was an amazing singer
She was but this is a video with Freddie in it.
if there's another thing, these two look EXTREMELY happy in each other's presence, and probably had a great deal of respect for one another. not only does the song make me feel happy, but how they seem to be really content with each other puts a smile on my face
I think they did. I believe I read Freddy who was a very private person despite his stage performances told her he was suffering from AIDS and she never revealed that to anyone but gave him a lot of emotional support.
@@judithmatthews8460 They became close friends very quickly when they worked together. Both had the utmost respect for the other's musical abilities, even though they were from opposite ends of the musical spectrum, and both were willing and eager to learn from each other. The anecdotes about when they met are adorable - Montsy was rather shy, and had no idea what to expect from this mad rock star, and Freddie was terribly nervous about meeting his favourite singer in the world. Then he began to play the piano, and all that disappeared. She was one of his closest confidantes for the rest of his (tragically short) life. May they be singing together again now.
@@neuralmute I like the story that Freddie was chuffed thinking that they would do one song together and she assumed that they, of course, would do an album. Freddie's like "Gulp, now I have to come up with an album's worth of songs". LOL Tickles me for some reason.
Se fosse vivo andrei in capo al mondo per vederlo!!!!!!
That's when two extraordinary, exceptional talents together have mastered the art to perfection!
