What I love in this performance is the fact that they are not trying to copy the original song, but they put their soul in this song.

They dont have to sound the same like Queen because they arent! Forestella did theire own version and its great!

This is the best cover by a quartet. No one has performed the opera section of the song better than forestella and that too live. Even Queen’s version had the opera piece recorded separately. It is true that Mark Martel has a voice closest to Freddie Mercury. But covers don’t have to have exact voice match. They need to make it sound nice without distorting the song. That’s what Forestella did. The arrangement was perfect utilizing the 4 members of the group.!

The bass (Woorim) and the tenor you liked (Mingyu) are professional opera singers. The guy on the right end, Doohoon, is a musical actor and the countertenor (Hyungho) has no formal musical background, he used to be a research chemist and an amateur rock singer :) These guys' specialty is twofold: incredible harmonies and putting their own twists on songs. they sing in whatever language you give them, from Spanish to English to Russian and even Zulu (yes, they did that). I like their covers precisely because they are not like the original song. They don't pretend to be the original artist. And they are always very respectful with the material they work with. They arrange the vocals themselves and get help from producers with the music interpretations (here not so much, but in other covers they completely twist the music around too). They were simply meant to sing together :) They practice a LOT. They have classical covers and fun stuff too, like their most recent performance of Despacito.

Yeahh, Foretella is another level. You NEED react to ''Forestella(포레스텔라) - Lazenca, Save Us''

I have been a fan of Queen since before they were famous. Even they didn't do the middle section live. They played a video, and left the stage. Brian then brought them back onstage as the middle section video finished. I'm going to say it.... When Cho Mingyu sang.. "Mama just killed a man", it sounded just like a little boy telling his mum. For me, he edged that line from Freddie. 😳 I find Forestella's version the best apart from the impact Queen's version had when I first heard it. I love Freddie. He would have loved this, as he fully embraced Opera, dabbling in it himself. I'm a Ko WooRim fan, but this is Cho Mingyu's song. Just as "Je suis malade" is Bae Doo-Hoon's. 😭 "Hijo de La Luna" is Kang Hyung-Ho's, "Bad Romance" and "Shape of you" is Ko WooRim's. That is what they do so well, give them all the chance to shine.

Please, listen to Hijo de la Luna. It’s my favourite

Been following Forestella for yrs and have never been disappointed by them!

Bravo 👏 👏 👏 👏

fyi for anyone wondering, forestella is not a kpop group, they are a classical crossover quartet. 2 opera singers a musical actor and a freak of nature with no professional training before joining the group! the one you pointed out is one of the opera singers.

No se trata de superar a Queen sino de considerar otras perspectivas y versiones distintas. Creo personalmente que la versión de Forestella supera ampliamente a la de Queen en cuanto a interpretación, pero reconozco que nadie, salvo Freddy Mercury podría haber compuesto una pieza tan maravillosa como Bohemian Rhapsody. Nadie puede negarlo.

More Forestella plis!!!!❤

💜🦌😊🫶

Je suis malade is my favorite from them

They also do a cover of Sound of Silence and Scarborough Fair. They are amazing. They did a cover of Despacito as well.

I hadn't seen this video yet, but my husband showed me this Forestella video a few days ago! I was getting goosebumps watching it, so happy you watched it too!!!

Forestella - Bad Romance

The chat seems very confused, Forestella is not a acapella bad they're a fusion group of trained opera singers, a theater actor, and rock vocalist. Forestella is an amazing quartet, love them.

you need to hear them singing Inner Universe, it's fantastic

Try their version of Bad Romance. One of them does a performance of Phantom of the Opera by himself

💜💜

They sang to honor and celebrate Queen's music. I know they sang about 3 songs.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

The best quartet crossover . They can sing many styles in differents languages . Try Shape of you (cover Ed Sheeran) . Thank you 😊

Thank you for your reaction! This is Forestella, a crossover group from Korea. They are the winner group in the Phantom Singer 2; an audition show to form a crossover quartet like il Divo from Korea. However as they have their own unique style, they won't be Korean il Divo, they will be the Forestella of the world! Forestella has sung great covers like Bohemian Rhapsody, We are the Champions, Hijo de la Luna, Heal the World, the Sound of Silence, My Favorite Things, Champions (mash-up of Champs league theme and Champions by Jo SuMi), Nella Fantasia, Scarborough Fair..etc etc. At the Phantom Singer All Stars they sang Time in a bottle, Je suis Malade as well. Shape of You in English, Spanish and African Zulu is fantastic indeed. You can even see them dancing singing Smooth Criminal as well! If you are a LOL fan, check their Warriors and Legends Never Die! And they broke the record of their own with EXO's MAMA winning 6 trophies for King of Kings in a row in Immortal Songs. Check their magnificent performances of Bad Romance and Lazenca Save us, Unwritten Legend and Despacito too. Forestella is a quartet of Ko WooRim (classical bass, intense abyss-deep low tone), Kang HyungHo (ex-research chemist, rock vocalist with soprano head voice falsetto), Cho MinGyu (classical leggiero tenor, light boyish crystal clear tone) and Bae DooHoon (musical actor, 159th King of the Masked Singers, emotion convincer good at R&B, Pop). Each has distinct tone and style of singing, different charm. But all of them are famous as practice-freaks. They meet almost everyday to practice together. In a radio program the leader (Cho MinGyu) revealed it would be around 20 days they didn't meet in the year. Bae DooHoon also said they don't meet 1~2 days in a month. I think this explains how their perfection can be possible. Don't miss their m/v for Save our lives! It's full of wonders. Each of them is representing an element in the m/v. They sang Fake Love of BTS and their song Save our lives at MAMA. Their new original song Utopia is a must check. Now I see they are creating a genre called Forestella. They showed "What crossover is" with Save our lives and showing "What Forestella does" with Utopia! Recently, they released their new original song, White Night.

Mark Martel was the winner of a competition done by the remaining queen members to find a sound alike to Freddie Mercury for a new band they were creating. Mark Martel’s voice is so close to Freddys, that the remaining Queen members cannot sing with him, it is too hard for them. They ended up picking Adam Lambert as their lead man, and let Mark sing under a new band, “Queen tribute show”.

They also did Despacito. It was so good.

포레스텔라는 듣지못한 사람은 있어도 한번 들으면 놀라움에 계속계속해서 들을수 밖에 없을겁니다~^^ 리액션 감사합니다 ~~♡♡♡♡

This group appeared on my suggestion page a few days ago. “Despacito” got me hooked on them. “Sweet Dreams” is really good as well. I’m not sure what happened, but many of my favorite BTS reactors are now reacting to Forestella. Great minds and all that 💜 They were formed when they participated in a singing contest. Didn’t know each other before. They won first place. I just spent an afternoon watching excerpts from the show: Phantom Singer 2 (season 2 - think of it like “The Voice” but the intent was to end up with a quartet.)

독보적인 음색 하모니 포레스텔라 영상 감사합니다 👍 💕 구독 좋아요 포레스텔라 음색 사랑합니다 ❤

I still remember how I was like watching them perform this song. I was like, "how dare a never-heard group to challenge this masterpiece of Queen? Let me see how you ruin it..." and BAAAMMMMM! Their Bohemian Rhapsody blew me away and made me a huge fan. Forestella first sang their version of Bohemian Rhapsody in the KBS Immortal Songs which is a kind of remake competition music entertainment show. It made them known to the world, and later they put it in their 2nd album titled Mystique. They had concert tour under the title Mystique. This video was filmed at the Mystique encore concert, the last of the tour. I prefer their Immortal Songs video because we can see their acting in the performance there. Here it's too dark to see it well.. I recommend Forestella Queen's best songs compilation video on KBS Jeonju channel. There are 2 more Queen renditions in addition to the very first performed Bohemian Rhapsody by Forestella.

Escucha HIJO DE LA LUNA de Forestella!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The guy you pointed out is Cho Mingyu, the leader of the group.

Welcome to the Forestella world you have many to see that you can analyze Smoothth Criminal, Time in a bottle, Champions, Parlapiu Piano, Hijo de la Luna (son of the Moon), We are champions, Je Suis Malade, "Nella Fantasia" Korean song "Silla's Moonlight" If I leave, The Face that I Miss,Phantom of the opera,Time In A Bottle and bad romance and more Bae Doo Hoon: Tenor/Barítono. Kang Hyung Ho: Contratenor. Cho Min Gyu (Líder ): Tenor Operístico (leggero). Ko Woo Rim (Maknae y Vocalista): Bajo Operístico. kzfaq.info/sun/PLdGP7B8Kj_RQVltHygvVwZc4YnFvlLF7O

Nothing beats Queen, but I think Freddie would love this. ❤

Simplesmente perfeito. Forestella nota 1000 . Amo ver eles cantando. Fantastico❤❤❤❤

Thanks for your reaction! Forestella is a South Korean classical crossover quartet, and they're well known for their harmonies and ability to sing in multiple languages and genres. They're covered other classics including "Je Suis Malade" (Lara Fabian), "Sound of Silence" (Simon and Garfunkel), and "Time in a Bottle" (Jim Croce) and pop songs including Exo's "MAMA," "Despacito," and "Bad Romance"-- hope you check out more from them!

Their version of Lady Gaga's Bad Romance is epic!

분석 감사합니다

Thank you for your reaction. Their other performances will make you amazed. Please listen to their other songs. ^^

I get chills with every forestella performance. They have so much talent.

포레 리액션 감사합니다~♥

Мне очень нравится версия Форестеллы! С удовольствием её слушаю. ❤ И я люблю исполнения вживую.

그들은 멋진 그룹입니다 ❤ 제가jk팬이고 그들의 팬이이고 합니다 너무감사합니다 ❤

Brilliant. I saw Queen with Freddy Mercury in concert in Montreal Canada. It was fantastic

Hangi dil hangi Ülke olursa olsun herkesi hayran bırakıyorlar dinlemeye doyulmuyor kalplere girip yerleştiler vazgeçilmez oldular ben yeni tanıştım şarkılarıyla nedereyse her an dinliyorum ❤❤❤❤

They are excellent, I love them

Wowwww!! Impresionantes!!!! Son increíbles!!! Son los reyes de las armonias!!! Merecen ser conocidos y reconocidos en el mundo!! Su talento es de otro mundo!!! Cada cover lo elevan de nivel!!! Aplausos de pie!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Amazing!!! They have their unique voices ❤❤❤

🙂🙏💕💕

They are so good live! THIS SONG IS AMAZING LIVE. if you ever get the chance... go to one of their concerts!

Scarborough fair.....its absolutely amazing

For the cover, it is important to pay homage to the original song. However, I don't think it can be seen that it is sung the same as the original song. I don't know much about Freddy, but I think I'd rather have them do it in their own style than imitate him. Because he is not stubborn and seems flexible in his way of thinking. It's just my opinion though.

The chat wasn’t it 😔 Maybe I’m biased because I’m a fan of Forestella, but this is a cover! A cover! They’re not trying to mimic Queen, this is their own rendition, and I think they did fabulous! This is my favourite cover of this song. I love the bass singer… I don’t trust people who say they didn’t like this performance. Even if the cover wasn’t their cup of tea, no one can deny that the cover was amazing and was performed by extremely talented singers

Para mim eles superaram, pois quem criou a música não conseguia cantar ela, sem utilizar ajuda de aparelhos. Os garotos fizeram tudo sem subterfúgios.

Nueva suscriptora 😊 Ellos hicoeron un homenaje a Queen sin copiar al 100°/° la versión original, y poniendo todo su amor y conocimiento en ello. Por eso amamos a Forestella ❤ Ellos simpre le dejan una pequeña huella a sus coverss. Sus canciones originales son maravillosas, te las recomiendo 😊

Thanks for your reaction! I love all crossover groups and especially Forestella is one of favorites! They have amazing voices and harmonies! I’d like to recommend you a new crossover group from South Korea I discovered recently. It’s called “Forténa” with combination of four tenors(I’ve heard it’s the first crossover group with four tenors). One of the members is a very famous count tenor(His name is DQ Lee and played in lots of operas all over the world). When I heard their very much first cover song “Neaolis” and “Demain n’existe pas“ in a competition program, I had goosebumps everywhere. I’m sure you would like it and I’d love to hear your opinion about their singing as a vocal coach! Thanks and I always appreciate your all reactions!

I LOVE Forestella!!!!!

Wow! Sooo good

Voce poderia analisar LEGENDS NEVER DIE, JE SUIS MALADE( em francês), TIME IN A BOTTLE de FORESTELLA por favor... eles tem outras lindas interpretações as quais eles fizeram uma harmonização fantastica com suas vozes. Obrigada

Como me alegra la tarde ver tus reacciones 😊, son tan sinceras ❤

They are awesome magnificent and wonderful. Beautiful singers.

Ohhhhhhhh I love ❤️ ❤❤❤❤❤

Los únicos covers de Queen que realmente me gustan son los de Forestella, ellos hacen todo maravilloso!!👌👏

프레디머큐리가 살아서 이곡을 들었다면 얼마나 좋아했을까요?

These guys are very talented, i think it was just the arrangement for me that thru off parts of the song, some parts where beautifully done and then there were where you had a stanza and then it would cut off to go to a different voice and i was like wth, that was a shock to jump from one octive to another

Maybe no your style but Norway’s Angelina Jordan performed “Bohemian Rhapsody at AGT aged 13 years old. Brian May of Queen was so delighted with her version so she was given permission to perform her version in the future.

O Grupo Forestella supera é muito o Queen. Eles são quatro pessoas apenas e quanto que o Queem duplicava as vezes na hora da opera para aparecer ter muitas vozes. Forestella supera o Queem em 10 a zero.

❤

저도퀸 노래는 중학교때 들어본 노래인데 포래 네스텔라가 불러줘서 너무 좋네요

Simplesmente maravilhoso, quando eles estarão no Brasil - SP/RJ/MG/PR

Not as good as Freddy but very good

You should watch Bad romance of forestella

😍😍😍😍😍

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

She can't go home even though she's just married. She's always practicing If you're interested in frying, I respect Kim Yu-na, the world's most famous figure skating queen But when I heard that voice in the clouds, it was Go Woo-rim I can't fall in love If you have time?

Kim Yu-na is more famous than All-in If you saw me studying, I guess I have a bad pronunciation I hope you enjoy the performance They're both proud sons and daughters of Daehan Thank you for liking it I'm always watching it well Stay healthy in Seoul

Korean singers are crazy these days

Woorim, the bass, is husband of Queen Yuna.

Roscoe, if u can pls react to Forestella Despacito song.

I'm a bts fan, but I complete them very much They really put in as much effort as bts, they don't sleep, they start with stage concepts, they sleep together, they make songs together, and they're the youngest in the station, so I guess it's not me. Woo-rim is Kim Yu-na's husband Two points for the new groom

낫띵 빝 퀸 ㅇㅈㄹㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

This is an awesome cover. They are all very talented. But for me, the best cover I ever heard is Pentatonix.

Lo de Freddie es sentimiento, sangre, sudor y lagrimas. Esto es comercio de profesionales comerciantes de cultura for salle. Una VERGUENZA contra la honestidad de los verdaderos creadores.

I recommend a song. Forrestella member Kang Hyungho's solo song Forestella (포레스텔라) - Kang Hyung Ho(강형호) The Phantom of the Opera kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iLufmJSWltTXnoU.html
