- Today I'm reacting to Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballé singing How Can I go On Live at La Nit in 1988. Montserrat Caballé, was a Catalan Spanish operatic soprano who Freddie adored!
This is my first time ever watching and hearing them perform the sing and just wow!

Hi I'm Doe, I live in England with my partner and our little jack russell. I make TH-cam videos about all the things I love, so you will see a lot of Beatles and Queen related content, music reviews and reactions, vinyl record hauls and unboxings and showing my record collection. Also we are both vegan and love plants and love growing our own food on our allotment and tasting new vegan food. I love art so you will see some creative projects on here as well as fashion, especially from the 50s/60/70s, I love that vintage style. I also vlog from time to time, especially if I'm travelling or showing you parts of England, hiking in the country, out on the motorbike or exploring a medieval castle.

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." ♥
Oh my gosh 😢😢😢😢
Ugh I didn’t need to know that 😢😢😢😢 RIP to the both of them!
Theirs was a love story the transcended the ordinary. Something joined their souls together.
Yes indeed it was sadly to be the last ever time we would see Freddie on stage in a live setting. This was October 1988. He still looked ok but now not capable of singing live so had to mime instead.
That's 100% correct
At this time Freddie knew about his illness and she knew it too. The song has a special meaning and goodbye for both.
Greetings from Germany.
Rumor has it that when Montsy put her hand out.. and Freddie took it, he had tears in his eyes.. so she didn’t let go. It’s obvious they truly loved each other.. btw.. please listen to the words of this song… they’re profound and amazing.
Yes, it's an amazing song lyrically too
I agree Doe
Freddie really was something else. I've always loved the Barcelona album. It was so unique back in the day. After that, many other artists have tried to do their version of opera/rock/pop thing, but I think that nobody even came close to it.
I've heard this countless times and still cried when you got tears. Get's you right in the feels. Musical magic! Thank you for this beautiful reaction.
The power of music 🥰
If you decide to react to "Guide Me Home" get a whole box of tissues, because Freddie reaches out, touches your heart and soul and makes you break down. -- I can never get through that song.Just thinking about it makes me teary eyed.☮Thank you Dear ❣❣
Love love love this song Doe Monserett noticed Freddie’s tears during this and took his hand such a beautiful pair of singers god bless them both thank you x x ❤️❤️
😪I really believe she was an angel sent from Heaven to help Freddie thru such a hard time.
@@marciebulsaraorcutt Yes, destiny.
This is absolutely beautiful. They sang so perfectly together without either one compromising their own unique style. Barcelona is an album so there are an album's worth of songs with these two together. The Golden Boy is another favorite on this album. Your reaction was perfect and complete, Thank you.
I saw them perform "Barcelona" at ku club in ibiza in the 80s we new it was an amazing thing but didn't realise how lucky we were. You can see the performance on TH-cam.
Extremely beautiful, extremely emotional. Freddie looking so dapper in his tux. He got to fulfill one of his long time dreams. There will never be another Freddie Mercury. He lives on in all of us!
I love the story of Freddie reacting to Montserrat for the first time, they are so angelic and ethereal together! Love the video
Those 2 were meant to sing together! And I believe she truly loved him.
Nice reaction. Freddy's voice quality and ability and his passion is unrivaled. Nobody ever could, can now or will ever sing like Freddy Mercury. Nobody!! Ever!!! He was beyond magical.
I had goosebumps since the first notes, the whole album is a pure gem. I bought it 30 years ago I cannot tell you how many days and nights I've been listening to it on loop... it simply put me through a range of emotions I just can't stop it... 🙂
All the songs they did together are so beautiful!
A wonderful reaction, Doe. Such a beautiful performance from them both, it moves me to know that at this time Freddie wasn't long for this World, he was needed up in Heaven. One of my favourite tracks of them today is 'The Golden Boy', I think that there were eight songs of them together in total. Thank you again for reacting to this, Doe. ❤️
Love this song so much
This is my favourite song from the duo. Montserrat loved performing with Freddie and you can tell by the expression on her face.
Hello Doe, from Seville, Spain. I have been seeing your reaction to this song and you are not the only one who is moved and tears fall. If a human being has a heart, it is normal to express feelings before such a wonderful interpretation and song perfect and after no longer having Freddie with us who died so young with so much talent and Monserrat a soprano with a voice that touches heaven. This song is sublime and Golden Boy is another masterpiece. Freddie with Queen demonstrated his great talent, but here with Montsi they go up a step together and take music to touch the sky together.
You are a beautiful Englishwoman inside and out. Greetings from Spain, beautiful! I'm subscribing to your channel because you seem like a woman with a big heart and you're perfect for reacting to songs.
Hermosa canción.
There are actually some studio recordings of Freddie singing some of his and her parts from some of the original sessions. You can find them on TH-cam and I’m pretty sure they are part of the Freddie Mercury ltd Ed collection book. They are really amazing to listen to.
And a nearly 5 octave range. The guy was unbelievable. His vocal abilities and tone quality were pure magic. He made you feel every single word. His songs literally give you goosebumps in places you didn't know you had goosebumps.
Thanks, Doe! This is favorite between the two of them.. I love how she is lip-synching when he sings the beginning.. and the TWO are made for each other...
My favorite Freddie and Monseratte song, I'm so glad you did this reaction. Sometimes I catch myself singing it and because I don't sing very well 😂 I have to stop and take a few minutes to watch the video 🎶
The beautiful Bass guitar on that is performed by Mr John Deacon.
ohhhhhh boyyyyy.... As soon as Montsie started singing, my waterworks started.
These lyrics are so significant: IDK how many people know that - at this time - Montsie was one of very FEW who knew of Freddie's terminal AIDS diagnosis. (He didn't tell his bandmates until 1989!) Mary Austin knew, I assume Jim Hutton and maybe Peter Freestone. (I’m sure someone else will know if this is right/correct me!)
Montsie had been excited for the prospect of Fred & her singing "Barcelona" at the Barcelona 1992 Olympics… Fred confided in her that he wouldn't be able to perform with her, then... "because he would be no more" (as Montsie put it in an interview later).
…And, they truly adored/respected each other! After Freddie was gone, Montsie was asked by other non-opera singers to do collaborations like she had with Fred... She turned them all down, because she said that "it would never be the same". When Freddie's statue was placed on the waterfront of Lake Geneva in Montreux, Switzerland, Montsie was there right next to Fred’s parents for the dedication ceremony.
(My “mushy” emotional state today also has to do with it being my Mom’s birthday. We were BFs, I took care of her when she became unwell/she passed away back in 1995… Still feels like it was yesterday.)🫶
Ahh thats heartbreaking. She really was a true friend to Freddie. Sending you hugs 🫂
I miss Freddie ❤ forever 😢
Fenomenal reacción, con mucho sentimiento!!👏😘descansen en paz!😢
WOW WOW WOW WHAT a BEAUTIFUL video of Freddie Mercury & Montserrat singing How Can I Go On TRULY BEAUTIFUL. Doe I Don't know how you held it TOGETHER, as it gets me Everytime. REALLY ENJOYED YOUR REACTION 👍😊😄😊. Could you Please react to Spread your Wings or A Winter's Tale. BRILLIANT VIDEO Doe.
So beautiful. Made me choke up even when editing it. I've already heard spread your wings (love it!) But a winters tale is on the list
@@DoeDarling THANK YOU Doe for your LOVELY reply. OH YES I'm sure that when you were editing it you cried, two AMAZING SINGERS TOGETHER. You could react to The Golden Boy also sung BY Freddie and Montserrat. KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT REACTIONS. LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT REACTION. 👍😎😊. Paul
Hi Doe.
Thank you for reminding me of this song. I had forgotten it.
Yet again along with a lot of Queen tracks in the later years they all seemed to have profound messages in them.
The Barcelona album has 8 tracks on it
Barcelona
La Japonaise
The Fallen Priest
Ensuing
The Golden Boy
Guide Me Home
How Can I Go On
Overtune Piccante.
Hope this helps with your question.
I look forward to your next reaction
I think I would like to get this album!
@@DoeDarling You should get the album. It's amazing!
Even after all these years I still get chills! You’re definitely not alone. It makes me so emotional. Tears for joy and music are so awesome. They had SUCH a mutual admiration and love for one another and I love that you know that about them! They’re so cute together. They both had some of the most beautiful vocals I’ve ever heard. They won’t be upstaged in my lifetime or the next. 🏆 Check out “Guide me Home” and “Ensueño” Yes there’s more!
He has never made a bad song. Some , people may not like personally but they were still top notch quality. He was one of very very very few select people who had sub harmonics in his vibrato. It's almost unheard of.
❤❤❤❤❤ genios por siempre 🙏 que voces dios!!!!!🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷❤😢😢😢
Hi Doe, I never heard this but I'm a huge Freddie fan and opera I don't know much abut but I know enough to recognize her greatness. I'm a former boxer and we're supposed to be so tough but I have a tear streaming down my face now .great reaction, your reactions are so good and I'll tell you why I like them so much one day but I've rambled on enough now, have a great day and keep smiling
Ame ver el vídeo,y ver cómo lo ves a Freddie..y saber que su voz te llegó al corazón..y eso es porque el es un dios..y su majestad la reina!!!
HI Doe. Beautiful reaction. thankyou for taking us there. take a lookout "Golden boy"from the same concert. it is a gold nugget.
Freddie took a huge leap forward to fulfil his dream to sing with Monserrat. He became a legendary cross over from Rock to Opera. Freddie opened the door for future collaborations. He was a pioneer and the aftermath became the new thing in music crossover. Freddie had the insight for expansion and inhancement to his career, even if he was dying of Aids. Very brave was he.
Yes.
Golden Boy is lovely and ensueño is beautiful, lovely video as always and gorgeous voice x
Check out Freddie’s exercises in free love which he wrote in preparation for working with her. He adored her and thought she was an amazing opera singer. A rock star loving opera. That is special. He was before his time.
You should hear their Ensueno!! Pure beauty.
Escuchar esta canción es como sentir el abrazo suave de tu madre que ya no está !💕🎵
Es una obra maestra
I cry every time I hear Freddie.his music was so prophetic.while my own life is in such chaos.i can feel were he was coming from .
Every time I see them perform together I can't help but cry.He loved her so much and his dream was to be on stage with her just once.She heard about it and made it happen
Everytime I hear this one i have chills all over he sings so beautiful and monserat is an angel voice outstanding performance thanks doe darling loved your reaction as always and yes it was such abeautiful friendship magic 💗💓💗
Pure perfection ❤
Monserrat was mesmerized by him. This was the pinacle of his career an saw to seek this union before his end. Freddie always did things in a spectacular manner and this is a prime example of his genius.
His tears were for admiration for her and his accomplishments as the composer/writer. Never before done,but afterward others decided to go for the exchange. He was the pioneer of this crossover. Thank God his genius invited such happenings. Bless Freddie Mercury for all he did for music.
Wow. Thanks for inducing me to this amazing piece of music and beauty, I really appreciate it.
O.K., between you and Freddie, I'm crying now. I had just listed to todays release "Face It Alone" and now this. Oh my. Emotional overdose!!! Beautiful. I hope they are singing in Heaven holding hands!
Beautiful song
loved your reactions... i believe i've known this song for 20 years and it still breaks me into pieces.. such a beautiful song..
thanks for sharing the vid
also, such a cute dog
I like The Golden Boy by them even more than this. There's footage of them performing it at this same show - but as you may have noticed, it was not live singing, it was playback. They are not trying to hide it, they have no microphones. But that does not take away from the fact that the music is beautiful.
La Japonaise
NO SE SI EXISTIRÁN LOS ANGELES NI EL CIELO...PERO SI EXISTEN CANTAN ASÍ DE BELLO Y EMOCIONANTE, DOS GIGANTES DE LA MÚSICA QUE SE TENÍAN UN AMOR Y UN RESPETO SIN FINAL...MONTSERRAT LLORÓ MUCHÍSIMO CUANDO MURIO SU AMIGO FREDDIE, NO SOPORTABA NO VERLO MÁS...MARAVILLOSA CANCIÓN..
Hi Doe have you heard Freddie covering the song The Great Pretender I think you will like it.Freddie in a pink suit fantastic love you're channel.
Yes! It was the perfect song for Freddie to cover, I might do a video discussing it in depth!
Probably won't see this, as it has been a year +...
I don't think I view Freddie and Montserrat as worlds colliding, but as worlds *combining* ...
I've never had a song that wasn't sad in its premise/lyrics bring me to tears until Barcelona.
She was the first person now the end was neer and she tel him i dont care, soooou amazing ❤❤❤❤
We’ll love all of you for ever RIP Grniuses
Son dos monstruos de la canción, cada uno en su estilo, con una conexión de amistad y cariño. Es sublime y al oirlos, te eleva a lo más alto. No hay palabras
What cute😂😂😂. It was great relationship between those two
HELLO Doe, I'm JUST after WATCHING your REACTION to Freddie Mercury and Montserrat How Can I Go ON again. TRULY AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL SONG. Yes there are more songs that Freddie and Montserrat sang together in fact there's A whole Album. I was going to buy A copy on Vinyl but it was VERY expensive I it was €125 but yet you can get it on CD cheaply. THANK YOU Doe FOR ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL HEART FELT REACTION. 😊🤗😄. LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT REACTION. Paul
FYI Doe,
There IS a live performance of “Barcelona”. At La Nit on this evening, they performed:
“Barcelona”
“How Can I Go On” and
“The Golden Boy”
(My FAV of their live pieces!)
P.S. I REEAALLYY HOPE that sometime you’ll be able to react to:
“EXERCISES IN FREE LOVE”
(The BEST audio is the posting that shows a pic of Fred in a bow tie/vest - it’s audio only.)
and
“ENSUENO”
…..You will be SHOCKED at what you hear w both of these!!
Freddy Mercury Caballe ❤😢
Almost nobady knows, but How Can I Go On was #1 in the Brazilian charts when it was released and it still a bit relevant nowadays.
Che y la lágrima cuándo le sale???😜
Qué grandes F.M. y M.C.!
There is a live version of them in Barcelona. It is a magical piece to see and yes if you haven’t seen the Live version you can absolutely react to it more than once. Such a beautiful journey
Montserrat and Freddie loved and respected each, other. Montse, as Freddie called her, spent quite a bit of time together in Freddie's beautiful home in Europe and laughed and sang. Anne
Como te extrañamos FREDY!!!!!
Just AMAZING...take my breath away💞💖💞💖💞💖💞
I hear this in my head. What a genius pairing!
La reacción más bonita y emotiva que he visto de esta canción. Esta chica emociona.
The feeling between them was magical.
Great music. Have a good year!
Heyup DD, what a fantastic track & how Freddie could put in such a performance with his sentence hanging over his head is beyond me. RIP Freddie............Check out "The Golden Boy" from the same concert DD...............Are you ready to react to "Mother Love" yet?
Thanks for the suggestion! Hmm..I'm not sure if I am 😬
@@DoeDarling I understand.....🥲
Ok I’m new to this channel, but such great feels/vibes. I’m loving this, and your thoughts. Definitely want more now.
Welcome aboard!
Thanks Doe...
What a crossover two of the best singers in their musical categories
Freddy is one over a Billion. He had this vision to combine these voices. And Freddy was the one telling the World for the 1st time that Rock and Classic is a new aera of music. He was also the one with the idea to make musicVideos for TV. Radio GaGa was the 1ST. He was 100% Inspiration in the past for the future that he could imagine before anyone else could.
Very good reaction baby 👍
I was as emotional when I first herd this particular song so emotional musical love affair. I wnted to hear it over and over again. i cried when they sang dededededede where Freddie sort of dropped his had...very emotional💔❤
you are a very touching person , and i understand you so much i see you in myseilf , i loved freddie so much
Me encanta esta canción y pienso que definitivamente deberías escuchar the Golden boy
Posdata gracias por los subtítulos
Yes this is soou amazing 😢❤
Poor missy is blissfully unaware in the background! 🐾
But seriously, I never knew this song beforehand, it’s amazing !
The golden boy
Barcelona is also worth a listen. They were a match made in heaven and they adored each other. They did a whole album together but Barcelona was the best song on it
There is a live version of Barcelona.
oh it is not just you ---- this video makes me cry, gives me chills too. His voice is beyond compare, as is Montserrat's. And knowing that he knew he was going to die within two years, makes it SO poignant, it's almost unbearable. Like you, this song is now one of my favorites, or maybe my very favorite of Freddie's.
Listening to the music of the band Queen, it's like seeing Michelangelo's paintings from the Sistine Chapel or listening to Beethoven's symphonies.
Yes, there was a live version of that song, from the same performance at La Nit. There were a total of 4 songs done. Here is the link to the complete performance: th-cam.com/video/62GtQDwf3m0/w-d-xo.html
.
In the description area, there are links to each song performance. Enjoy!
Es una hermosa canción de los dos. Te recomiendo su disco "Barcelona", que está en TH-cam versión 2012. Un gran saludo para ti 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
at the time of recording this album freddie was diagnosed with the virus, i wonder where the heck he got the strength from to carry on recording
congrats. You feel it :) love you. And i will love Freddie untiul the day i die. I saw Montserrat live.
Unfortunately I was never lucky enough to see Freddie live.
Do you know the story how he wrote this songs? :)
Yes....Speechless 🤍
The original version shown to the world of "Barcelona" was the live version from La Nit in 1988. Even thought the first live version was one year before at Ku Ibiza.
FREDDIE FOREVER, EVER))))!
Me gusta la reacción que tiene la chica a esta canción, pienso que es muy bonito mostrar nuestras emociones.
Freddie wrote 11 songs for their opera
You're so young... as a fan, I envy you. Queen catches you and she won't let you anymore.💕
i can’t work out whether montserrat’s reaction was to freddie doing that amazing powerful ‘is anybody there’ or if that was part of the performance but i’d love to know as if it was, it was how i reacted and i thought i knew what freddie could do before, amazing stuff
