Great reaction. Freddie and Montserrat adored each other. Montserrat was one of the few people Freddie told that he was dying of aids. During this performance Montserrat noticed that there were tears in his eyes, so she moved closer and held his hand. If you want more listen to them singing Golden Boy.

I am sitting here sobbing. I have listened to the song four times, and I just can't stop crying. That beautiful, soaring voice, silenced forever. What would Freddie be producing now? How can I miss an artist so deeply? I am not the fan girl type, and Queen was big when I was in high school (graduated 45 years ago) so his voice isn't new. Knowing he wrote those gut-wrenching lyrics, and then sang them so touchingly with the great Montserrat Caballé . . . tear wrenching. Beautiful, astoundingly majestic, and a beautiful reaction. Thank you.

👏👏👏Montserrat remembered to that night this way: "While he was singing, I noticed that his eyes were shiny with tears. I gave him my hand. He clasped it and kissed it. It was clear he was suddenly aware of his own fate. They were tears of farewell. It was his goodbye, at least to the stage." In terms of Freddie we don't have to talk about his vocals only, but his manners, passion and emotions delivered to the audience and of course his unforgettable stage presence. The Golden Boy from the same event is amazing, a bit more theatrical and dramatic.

Freddie was an Opera fan and she was his favorite. I believe he said on Spanish radio that she had the best voice he ever heard. In 1986, he mentioned on Spanish television that he would like to meet her, and they met for the first time in Barcelona in February 1987. She had already been asked to do the Olympics and once they had a "love at first meeting" moment she asked Freddie to do a song with her for them. In an interview somewhere here on YT Freddie said he thought the one song would be it. Ended up she wanted to do more so they did 2 others together. For the actual Olympics she went on stage alone but they dubbed in Freddie's voice to sing along with her. Bottom line is they became close and fast friends and cared about each other deeply.

Beautiful performance by both of them. Simply outstanding. Montserrat was Freddie's favorite opera singer, he admired her for years. He said something in an interview how he would love for her to sing one of his songs. Somehow the message got to her and she set up a time for them to meet. Honestly, Freddie just wanted her voice on a personal recording singing one of his songs. They met in Barcelona which is where Montserrat lived and they became fast friends. It seems that she also admired Freddie. Freddie intended to do one song with her but she then asked him how many songs are usually on one of his albums, he told her around 12. She said, okay, let's make an album. Freddie had to scramble and write a bunch of new songs because you just don't say no to opera's number 1 Diva. Yes, they became very dear friends. The first time I heard this I was just stunned but I had heard Exercises In Free Love beforehand where Freddie sings Montserrat's part of a song he was writing to send to her to see if she likes it. To hear Freddie singing soprano was mind boggling.

There are many lives that you will say it’s the best you have heard Freddie. He was truly a one of a kind. They did love each other. Freddie loved opera and heard her voice and said she was the best in the world. She agreed to meet him. They met in Spain and Freddie brought along a song he wrote for her and sang it showing he was serious. That song is EXERCISES IN FREE LOVE (check it out). They got along beautifully and Monserrat suggested they do an album together. At that time a Rock star never did a collab with an opera star. It was a first. I really want you to react to White Queen live at Hammersmith Oden 1975. It will not only have incredible vocals, but Brian Mays guitar will blow your mind!!! BTW, I watched Live Aid live on my TV on that amazing July 1985 day. When Queen ran out at 6:41pm and began their history making performance my jaw dropped. I had watched several groups since noon time and they did truly blow all of them out of the water. 1.9 billion people joined me in watching that day. It was truly an incredible memory. I still enjoy watching it on KZbin to this day. I have been a huge fan since I first heard Killer Queen on the radio in 1974 here in the USA.

5:35 “Are they incredibly close friends? I feel an authentic love and admiration, here.” YESSS. Montserrat was one of very FEW people to whom Fred confided his terminal diagnosis.

Montserrat Caballé was from Barcelona and is, by some, considered the last of the great soprano divas in opera. She had a mastery of breath control and volume. When Freddie was asked about singing with her, his response was "I love music, and she is music". They became such friends and loved each other through their short time together. You should watch the story of their meeting. She not only attended his funeral, but also the dedication of a statue to him in Switzerland. There is also a street named for her in Barcelona.

He had confided his secret to Montserrat, though... She had been excited about the prospect of the two of them performing "Barcelona" live together at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, so he told her that he wouldn't be able to perform with her because he would be gone by then.

Freddie of course is singing from the heart as he always does, he’s a man dying of a disease that, at the time, was a death sentence, knowing that, ‘how can you go on, this song captures his deep, emotional feelings, his struggles, his vulnerability, his feelings of helplessness- hopelessness, his desires, hopes, dreams that now, are no longer attainable, he is at the mercy of something he can not control, he shows that he is filled with anxiety along with fear of judgement, he is looking for someone to take care of him, to comfort him, and the feelings that he needs divine intervention, It is a cry for help, guidance, he is desperately searching for meaning, in the middle of his overwhelming sadness that he is faced with regarding his existence. He is scared, lonely, sad, he is looking for and needs true love to take him thru this, which of course, I think he received at the end, with a few very loyal,supportive, real true friends, that truly cared and loved him, they stood by his side until he took his last breath ❤ (Mary, Roger, Brian,John and his personal assistant, Peter Freestone) I also think that most of the love songs he sings - are for Mary and what could have been.

If you want to.know how much Freddie loved Montserrat read the words to the song Barcelona. It's not about the city, it's about Freddie meeting Montsy for the first time in Barcelona "I had this perfect dream. This dream was me and you. I want all the World to.hear you. Miracle sensation, my guide and inspiration" Freddie heard Montsy at Convent Garden and said she was the most beautiful thing he'd ever heard and that the whole World deserved to hear her, so he made it happen. But it was years later. Off stsge Freddie was actually very shy, and he thought this famous opera diva would never want to sing with him. Fortunately, her kids were Queen fans and in a Spainish radio interview Freddie was asked what he liked most about Spain and he answered Montserrat Caballe, and the rest is history. They actually became very close friends and you only have to see how Montsy looks at Freddie when they sing together, to see how much she loved him.

When Freddie found out he was HIV+, back then they had no treatment or anything. It was 100% fatal and he knew it. He didn't tell ANYONE, including his Queen band members. From biographies I have seen, including interviews with guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor, he had SO many things he wanted to do and when he got the diagnosis, he set out to achieve everything he could. Writing and singing an actual opera was one of them and this is it. He had already done a 7+ minute "opera" with Bohemian Rhapsody, from my understanding he simply started writing and recording everything he could. I COMPLETELY AGREE that with more people like Freddie who just wanted to make music, make people happy and bring joy with his music, forget record labels and whatever is "trending" now, this world would be a better place. You saw Queen perform at Live Aid, arguably the greatest performance of the ENTIRE WEEKEND was Queen. Considering your love for Freddie, I strongly suggest you watch, even if it's for yourself, No One But You/ Only The Good Die Young written by guitarist Brian May. Grab a tissue!

He, of course, made her supposedly one of the very 1st persons he confided his condition to...and didn't tell others till years later. Told her he wouldn't be around to be with us in '92..

Ver a estos dos monstruos emociona siempre, siempre por mucho tiempo que pase. Es de lo más hermoso!!!!! Es le le legado de dos estrellas que nunca se apagará su brillo mientras podamos escuchar esta maravilla ❤❤❤❤

Freddie will never die in the hearts of those of us who adore him! No one sings like Freddie! He puts his heart in every song and it is magical!
