    Montserrat is considered by many to have been one of the greatest sopranos in the history of opera.

    What I love most about this is how you can feel the genuine affection they had for each other. Let’s not forget this was the early 90’s and there was still a horrible stigma towards AIDS patients and the fact that Montserrat held his hand and was so close to him KNOWING he was infected just makes me love her more.

    Freddie wrote this for the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. Unfortunately, he passed away in 1991. But, they still included it in the Opening Ceremony. Queen/Freddie Mercury has the distinction of having their music included in the Barcelona Olympics, the London Olympics (Bohemian Rhapsody) and the Tokyo Olympics (Teo Torriatte). You need to also do Golden Boy. Freddie’s brilliant fusion of opera meets rock + soul/gospel!

    Two power people in their own realm - rock & opera - come together. Freddie confided to Montserrat about his illness as he did not have the confidence to sing this live...she was touched by his trust and moved by what his musical command. This was a very special moment and relationship for them both.

    Thanks for directing me to this. The 4 Queen guys, Brian, Roger, and John and Freddie are Legendary musicians. Freddie Mercury’s 1991 death did not diminish his star quality. The Diva, Montserrat Caballe’ died several years ago. She was in her 80’s.

    This was the first crossover between a rock singer and an opera diva. Freddie had a very eclectic musical taste and he loved the theatrical world, he was even dancing 😅 with the Royal Ballet for a charity event.
    Montserrat was the ultimate singer to Freddie and he wanted to make a duet with her once, they met in Barcelona, got on well very quickly, she loved Freddie's melodies, appreciated him as a singer/musician and asked him to write a song about her hometown Barcelona.

    Queen is a band formed by four members who compose their own songs and are multi-instrumentalists. In addition, three of them also sing. There are songs where Roger Taylor and Brian May are the main vocalists mainly on the band's first albums. Therefore, it would not be surprising that the three release a solo work at some point. Drummer Roger Taylor was the first to venture out, playing almost every instrument on the album on his first LP except 50% of the synths. Brian May followed in his footsteps with improvised work alongside Eddie Van Halen. Mercury was the third to release a solo effort.

    Hello fella's this is another group to check out. "The Staple Singers - I'll Take You There/We The People Live 1972 [Reelin' In The Years Archives]" This is an American gospel, R&B and soul group. Roebuck "Pops" Staples was the patriarch (head) of the family, he formed the group with his children Cleotha, Pervis and Mavis. Yvonne replaced her brother when he was drafted into the US Army. They had quite a few very big hits. And culturally speaking they left a big impact.

    I think it’s called call and response . I’m not positive but pretty sure . I’m probably wrong but her singing is absolutely opera and to me Freddie sounds kind of like Rock opera if that’s even a thing I would listen to Freddie sing the phone book. I think theatrical is what you mean when you say Disney. If you think about Bohemian Rhapsody he wrote that completely on his own and that is definitely like musical theater. I apologize I don’t recall your names but the comment you made about why you were smiling at certain parts is why for the first time watching this I was crying like a baby😭😂 I can’t think of a word to describe it but you looked awe struck or if you are familiar with AC/DC Thunder struck lol. Now I have to go fix my makeup lol great reaction guy’s

    in 87 i was 15 still in scondary school.it was the year dirty dancing came out so i was waiting for it to come to the uk so i could get a crush on patrick swayze rip!lol.
    freddie wasn't trying to get into broadway.the westend if your in the uk.he just had a love for other music opera in particular.so he took some time out from queen and explored.
    i get the disney annoyance.this wasn't disney!you can find thuings magical without it being anything like disney!like young reactors don't know music but know mj's later stuff and look for comparasions in every thing they react to.do they think artists just sat around doing nothing until mj did something and then copied him?no they were their own people.i do like disney.love mj so not dissing them.
