[MrLennon1966]

I have the solo collection(on a torrent) and this song and other ones is on the Barcelona Sessions CD on this great collection.

[antoniomarincanete]

[woodeli2]

And , she, her, Monserat, was even better...

[rhodesdarcy]

2.48 onwards just listen to freddie's passion

I know of no one else who can rip my heart with just holding a few simple notes again and again.

[skalpello]

How did you get this jewels I don't know, just thanks for posting them.

[SweTyNes]

See lithuanian version of this! Its so so good! its below this vid if you type in freddie mercury barcelona! Ofcourse not as good as Freddie... duuh!

[MrCercami]

voice of freddy......hammer(german)

[mandylla]

fantastic

[TribalManners]

one for the museum of human achievements

[hippimummy]

Thankyou for this,a version that i've never heard before. Freddies voice sounds almost angelic - with a touch of rock god for good measure of course! Both outstanding and breathtaking xXx

[kingarthurup]

@hippimummy

LOL

[herzerl1960]

Unvergessen einfach großartig!!!!

[anasur2000]

A pesar de que los dos no esten, ya junto a nosotros, me sigue emocionando.

En realidad estan de gira por el cielo....

[MercurysGirl]

@anasur2000

Por qué dices que Montserrat ya no está junto a nosotros?

[chorrica]

@MercurysGirl Eso digo yo... Si Monserrat está "viva y coleando"

[Waxiwilius]

Freddie, best performer and singer ever.

[espectaculardavidrcq]

Una canción muy bonita. Simplemnte preciosa.

[lutachev]

without question I loved and still love this man,ay or strait its not important, I stilll find him the most sexy passionate man, and if I'd had a chance....... God I would have loved him with every ounce of my flesh. xxx

[LAPIDIN1]

IMPRESIONANTE

[donn409]

Freddy had so much taste he knew great music in every form. People have made so many comparisons between Elvis and Michael Jackson but I believe Freddy was more like Elvis in the varied styles of music he was influenced by and he added these to his already prodigious talents.

[lazypoko]

is it odd that my miss him and never actually was alive to see him... ?

[Qlaarzy1]

Shivers.. wow.. this is.. só good..

[morethanscreaming]

Freddy mercury was and always will be the best, even now that he is not with us he continues giving us his wonderful music. We love you.

[scottb395]

This is THE BEST version of Barcelona I have heard. The pure power in Freddies voice is coming from the heart. This is pure brilliance, and I doubt any other vocalist in our lifetime would ever come close to this. Even so many years have passed, Freddie still manages to draw a tear and leaves me in awe.

[smrfox99]

I swear Mercury was just too god-like.....for fuck sakes...the man is doing his own harmonies as if he were a damn Soprano, THE MAN WAS AMAZING! Greatest rock musician of all time.

[1dog2birds]

some ladys are just so hot ! this is one! freddie u r good too .

[realmadridhfg]

lol?

[Kristalife]

Fabuloso!!! Quanta saudade, Freddie...!!!!

[bogasdebaixo1]

Uma rainha e um rei. Um dueto fantástico cantando uma música divinal.

[soledemina1]

I fully agree....such a pity this was an only time's experience ....

[666fannyfart]

A star that still shines so Bright!

[diosseg]

Tabani Istvan_-Vasary Andre (From HUNGARY)-BARCELONA......is amazing

[Konyrapid]

KIng Mercury! We love you Freddie!

[luban75]

tyyyraryraryyyy :-)

[mercecastro]

cada vez que la escucho se me eriza la piel........simplemente genial

[guillerm004]

No es irónico que siendo de Barcelona la temática de la canción, se cante en un idioma que no sea español? Tanto asi que fue el lema de las olimpiadas?

[fisnacat]

más irónico es que no se cantase en catalán...

[Koledy]

@guillerm004 Fueron las Olimpiadas de todo el mundo y la cantó uno de los mejores cantante de la história de la música. Esta canción enorme

[guillerm004]

No es que dudo de Freddie, se que es el mejor cantante en la historia del rock, es que me parece raro que no hayan elegido a gente de su propio pais como uno esperaria que sean representados.

[Koledy]

Bueno, en la versión final también estaba Montserrrat Caballé que si era de Catalunya/España

[cirillo82]

eso fue por q hace mucho Freddie queria cantar con Monserrat y el dijo q adoraba Barcelona, el compuso esa cancion si no me equivoco

[XAVI68S]

hay trozos en español sobretodo de montserrat caballe.

[vivabati]

Se puede cantar con mas pasión? Como se complementan ambos...es una auténtica maravilla.

[zeusdinolimp]

Respect Freddie!!! love u wherever u are!!

[ssppbb2005]

feliz cumple Freddy !! donde estes!! te quiero!!

[pppaauulloo]

soberbas vozes,

[Inkarix]

Obra Maestra,

Grande Freddie.

[justinbcat]

Two of the greatest voices ever heard and will ever be heard... goose pimples from begining to end !

[mechanicalvalve]

A modern day Mozart! I love Freddies sophisticated rambunctious flair for classical styles. He works true wonders with the notes. So much emotion is evoked with his music. You feel like your flying!

[mrsanbro]

Freddie RIP

[EVERALDO2701]

o cara era bão mesmo

[lxdemon]

[chalisville]

Josh Macrae you're a beaut! Freddy miss you!

[javialpalo]

[geriante]

[TheMSBorboleta]

Não me recordo de ouvir uma outra musica tão poderosa, bonita e inspirante como esta!.....brilhante!!

[IanM1984]

Liverpool FC and Freddie Mercury have the same love this evening.

[plqskoo]

Couldn't agree more. YNWA, Barca! ^^ Thank you, Pep!

[jubitoftw]

A perfect soundtrack for watching this season's highlights. Thank you FCB for a magic season!

[kicku24]

Absolutely lovely.

[Guilleenri]

Dos grandes de la música. Gracias por este tema que ya está en la historia.

[djan7744]

Монсерат - сила! А вот Басков даже на мошонку Меркюри не тянет. Куда это мудак примазался?! Пусть едет в свой мухосранск.

[Tonytnz]

Too many de do daa's in this version...But still nice to hear!

[Rasabihariji]

well that's a fat bottomed girl if i ever saw one

[1joker88]

lol!!

[IC2720]

you beat me to it, good one.

[Freddiestillalive]

sorry, but Freddie is more beautiful and powerful without moustache

he is another person

[alanmartin18]

supurb singing/song

[amigoargent]

bellisimo , gracias !! Freddie y Monserrat

[Devalmaster]

It's always the great Freddie... there aren't words to describe this artist.

[DnylF1]

He looks strange without his moustache. It's like another person.

[BESTMERCURY]

che voce potente!!!!!!!!!!!

[galwayclamper]

what makes it more amazing is the fact that ALL the voices you can hear are Freddie's... No Montserrat in here!

[gonsotube]

Are you retarded, deff or attention dependant? of course montse IS there!

[leedrake123]

he was joking you fool

[galwayclamper]

Again, Montse was not here. It's only Freddie in a demo recording. If you listen to "Exercises in free love" in The FM album you'll hear him singing quite similar to Montserrat as well...

[annaerl]

FANTASTIC !

[cynbulsara]

Freddie y Monserrat... CELESTIALES!!!!!!!!!!

[Sebyross]

Performance insuperabile... voce Divina...

[20style]

bellissima....

[tokiogaga]

Freddie è leggenda.

[partdean]

Freddie legend..

[tsdrive1]

Amazing, I have no words...Freddie Mercury never die...thank you freddie for all memories...his voice is so wonderful

[kingarthurup]

@tsdrive1

YOU MAY NOT REALIZE IT, BUT FREDDIE ACTUALLY DID DIE IN 1991.

[memole82d]

documento fantastico straordinario

grazie..

freddie ti amo..

[nemrodchile]

it's freddie's voice alone, i hear him

[jkws]

Elegant photo 1:52 to 2:10. I know they were both proud of that portrait. Wish Monstie would write her memoirs so we could read about her time spent with Fred. I guess all the inner circle will wait until Jer passes, huh?

[millettc]

There's a series of videos on here called 'Freddie Mercury - The untold story', have look at video 9/12 as she talks quite extensively about Freddie and their time together. You get to hear parts of tape recording of the first night they met too!

[jkws]

That's not Fred on piano, is it? Mike Moran?

[jkws]

Before I go to group, to comment on this video that our Peep ecipn07 posted, today, I have to tell you, Dave, how much your work means to me and all the others. I thought I'd heard everything in/around Barcelona, but this, my fine Peep, knocks me completely out of the water; first time heard; Fred's gotta love you man; you are a Peep of the First Order. ciao jk

[jrosengg]

Genius!! This is so amazing!! Thank you David!!

[paul00ep]

very good!

[thedusta]

Yes. Wonderful!

[AndThereYouHaveIt]

This is wonderful.

If you like the released version then please listen to this a couple of times. The melody when Freddie sings the title word is exquisite.

The overall finished edit does have some very rough edges but the beauty of the tune is to die for and the 'de doh de doh days' are extremely... well.. I don't really know.

Visceral? Maybe. They made me shiver a little. Didn't know weather to laugh, sing, cry or shut up and enjoy.
