So pretty this is the song that before lyrics and title was "Exercises In Free Love". Ensueno means Dream in Spanish. Mont-sir-rot Ka-bye-Yay. double "L" in Spanish is a "y" sound and "e" in Spanish is like a slightly soft "a" in English. Montserrat encouraged Freddie to sing in his lower register and taught him a lot about vocal control.
ENSUENO is the polished version of Exercises In Free Love! When Freddie first met Montserrat, he presented her with Exercises In Free Love to which she added the lyrics that later became this song! 💝💖Beautiful!! Montsy had Freddie’s voice analyzed & it was determined that he’s a baritone!! 🫶
Monserrat Caballe -Freddie Mercury’s favorite singer ( or Monsey) as Freddie called her was known as having an amazing ability to sustain soft notes with amazing power. Check out the Queen song Teo Torriatte a song written by Brian and Freddie sang part of the song in Japanese! They love Queen in Japan and have a national Queen day. Caballe and Mercury adored each other and admired each other’s skill and you can hear it. Thanks! ❤
This was the only song on the album that had been recorded together, Freddie and Montserrat were in the studio at the same time and sang into the same microphone, but because of the power in his voice Freddie had to step back from the mic.
So touching. It's like the sound of each others voices drew them to one another. They had great love and respect for one another and surely made beautiful musc together. I'm so glad they found each other. They made history ❤❤
Thanks, CP.. Freddie doing that lower -register is unusual.. and beautiful... (you might listen to Freddie's "exercises in free love" - where he sang "her" part... extraordinary)..
She wanted him to sing in his natural baritone. He can really go lower than we are used to. He thought his fans wouldn’t recognize. Yes You got Monserrat. Caballe. The lle sounds like yay
HEY HON, THANK YOU for your patience with my pestering on this request… BTW, Her nickname is MONTSIE (IDK if it’s spelled Montsie or Montsey). And, I’m the SAME: I never liked listening to opera until I discovered Freddie & Montsie singing together! (P.S. We’re all going to imagine you eating dinner in bed, now, you know…)
Great choice. He also sings in Japanese (chorus), Teo Toraitte I suggest the studio to clearly hear as intended; great vocal. ua-cam.com/video/Ge18n2JCwBs/v-deo.html
A rare glimpse of Freddie singing in his lower register, as a baritone. So beautiful.

Dinner in my bed lol. Wait I’m confused why 😂
They are singing now together in Heaven ... Montsy (as Freddie used to call her,) passed away in 2018 ... 💔💔
