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.

Barcelona '92 is probably the peak of Olympics as a cultural event

@SeverityOne Месяц назад

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.

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.

This is what happens when you pair 2 of the best voices humanity can produce. Freddie left us too soon... Monstserrat loved working with Freddie ... it had started as a single song for the Barcelona Olympics... she persisted... and it turned into a collaboration album :) Love both, miss Freddie so much.

@serjiottisa8565 Год назад

Incredible song, incredible performance of two genius of music! Freddie was seriously ill in those times and dying from AIDS, but didn't give up and continued to create his immortal masterpieces. Both had a magic powerfull voices! Freddie and Montserrat will never die in our memories and in our hearts!

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.

Montserrat Caballe - is the voice of an angel. Throughout her career, she has performed with some of the biggest names in lyrical singing. The Duo with Freddie Mercury, released in Barcelona in 1987, became the anthem of the Barcelona Olympics in 1992. Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballe - Barcelona forever ! Eternal memory. . .🙏❤🙏

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!
