Barcelona Lyrics
Barcelona Barcelona
Barcelona Barcelona
Viva
I had this perfect dream
-Un sueno me envolvio
This dream was me and you
-Tal vez estas aqui
I want all the world to see
-Un instinto me guiaba
A miracle sensation
My guide and inspiration
Now my dream is slowly coming true
The wind is a gentle breeze
-El me hablo de ti
The bells are ringing out
-El canto vuela
They're calling us together
Guiding us forever
Wish my dream would never go away
Barcelona - It was the first time that we met
Barcelona - How can I forget
The moment that you stepped into the room you took my breath away
Barcelona - La musica vibros
Barcelona - Y ella nos unio
And if God willing we will meet again someday
Let the songs begin
-Dejalo nacer
Let the music play
-Ahhhhhhhh...
Make the voices sing
-Nace un gran amor
Start the celebration
-Van a mi
And cry
-Grita
Come alive
-Vive
And shake the foundations from the skies
Ah,Ah,Shaking all our lives
Barcelona - Such a beautiful horizon
Barcelona - Like a jewel in the sun
Por ti sere gaviota de tu bella mar
Barcelona - Suenan las campamas
Barcelona - Abre tus puertas al mundo
If God is willing
-If God is willing
If God is willing
Friends until the end
Viva - Barcelona

Mr Bad Guy
There Must Be More To Life Than This
Living On My Own
wasnt this song just by freddie mercury not queen
Olympics
this os one of my fav songs - im surprised more ppl havent commented on it! written in one night with freddie and monserrat caballe beside a piano. thought it was a very fitting tribute that it was played as the theme of the 1992 olympics. its just a brilliant song, her voice is awesome too.
OK, it's on Greatest hits III, but can this actually be classed as a Queen song? Did Brian, Roger and John play a part in it?
I'm not sure about this song i know that Brian and John had parts on a few songs. Everyone comes down hard on GH3 for containing solo works by the guys (there are some Brian and Roger solo stuff as well) But a greatest hits album is designed to get you familiar and acquainted with a group so you can then go out and get the actual albums that are represented by the singles. And this greatest hits 3 represents where Queen was at that point in time, and i must say i've gotten the Album Barcelona because of this, not to mention Hot Space (because of Las Palabras de Amor).
However, this song in particular just seems to be a simple love duet about lovers meeting in the title city, perhaps one was a tourist...
I implore people to listen to the Barcelona album in its entirety. It's a series of songs that tell a simple love story between a Rock star and a fan which comes to nothing. It is an extraordinarily beautiful piece of work which gives us a tantilising glimpse of what may have been had this incredibly talented man lived.
It's a nice song, not my favorite though...I think I'm still a bit too immature to appreciate opera! Well, I know that Freddie did this opera album with Monserrat Caballe and he wrote this song with Mike Moran when Monserrat asked Freddie to write a song about her home village.
blasphem,y, this is trully a great album of pure vocal virtuosism. The fact it's not by Queen doesn't mean we should not explore more widely other song's from the album.
Track Barcelona is first of all an awesome melody. This is not really about the town of Barcelona but a tribute to Montserratt Caballe. Freddie truly loved this woman...no of course not sexually but they certainly shared a love.
Listening to the lyrics of the entire album I sense our Freddie Mercury venting is fears and praying to God for mercy and some comfort. Remember this magnificent man knew his time was ending soon.
Queen Greatest Hits 3, of course, was a cheap cash in.
As for the song, its good stuff. Even if Caballe had long since passed her peak. Freddie, of course, kept his beautiful voice right to the end.
Sadly, most of the album is throwaway filler.
