this came out in 1974-75. This 'mini film' as Queen called it was pretty much the first 'music video'. Queen put this together because the show 'Top of the Pops" wouldnt let them perform this song on air since it was too long, so Queen produced it with their own money to help promote the song against the label's wishes. Also when Queen first started touring Freddie Mercury wanted the band to follow a 'black and/or white' theme. Meaning that for years they ALL dressed in either black or white at every concert. Obviously that changed as time went on, but one thing that's never changed is that Brian May(lead guitarist) has never cut his hair short. Queen has never realy explained what this song is about, closest was when Freddie said that it came from 3 song ideas that he joined together & other time he talked about it having something to do with the faust Opera, which is fitting since the album was called "Night At The Opera".

Besides being an Astrophysicist, he is also a renowned expert (and historian) of Stereoscopic 3D photography - and his work with NASA and the European Space Agency has involved the compiling of 3D-viewable photographs and video derived from the raw data and images being sent back to Earth from various missions. He has published multiple books of stereoscopic photographs - historical images from the Space Race to reach the Moon , his own stereo-photos he took over his years of touring in Queen, derived images of cosmic clouds from astrophotographer J.P. Metsavaino 😂- he owns London Stereoscopic Company which sells books, viewers, image cards, etc. He has also begun his own Brian May Guitars (aka BMG) that sells a range of guitars (and basses) based upon his original handmade iconic Red Special. He has both less-expensive models and more-expensive ones, so to appeal to a wide range of aspiring players. Let’s also not forget he is an ardent animal rescuer/rights activist, giving generously of his time, talents, voice, money and *connections* to push for the end to fox hunting, the end to widespread culling of the UK’s badger population , and to protect the hedgehog population. All in all, Brian is a multi-talented genius with wide ranging interests and passions… and I wonder when the man ever sleeps ! 😊

He sang all the harmonies in the *beginning* of the song. During to the so-called “operatic” section, it was Freddie AND Brian AND Roger, layered over and over…so many layers they *almost* wore the tape to ruin to get it perfect. (ROGER hit those super-high “Galileo” parts as well as the highest notes in the “let him gooooo” and “for meeeeeeeeeeeeee!” phrases. ) Despite lip-syncing in this video, John Deacon (the bass player) is the only one who didn’t contribute on vocals. He rarely (almost never) sang anything in studio, and only a bit more in live performances (in which his mic was generally turned wayyyyy down) - next to Freddie (especially), Brian and Roger, John just didn’t have enough confidence in his own voice in comparison. But John makes up for it by being awesome in other ways.

I remember a of lot radio stations wouldn't play it at first because it was so long, but it got to number one in the music charts in the U.K. 'The Top 40' which was on the radio every Sunday evening. You would listen and wait to see which song was at the top of the charts at number 1, this song was number one for weeks. It was also one of the first music videos I remember seeing on TV. This meant Queen could tour, and the video could be played on shows like Top of the Pops because they couldn't appear live. Brings back so many memories.

NICELY framed points about the power of the lyrics and the passion behind the song. Killer line, " ...I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all." When Freddie's handwritten lyrics of this song were on display, he had penciled a box around the "Nothing really matters to me." So you nailed it. When you talked about listening to this while driving in a car, I got another Queen song you might like. Completely different, pure FUN - COOL CAT (Queen official lyric video - never done live.

If you're going to check out this era, try Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir" and "Whole Lotta Love." Many more greats from them, but that's a start. Or the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil" and "Gimme Shelter." Those are a good place to start after checking out Elvis. Rock goes through a lot of transformations. Rock and Roll (that's Elvis and his ilk), Rock (This is where you start hearing heavier beats and lasts through the 70s (less so in the 80s and 90s), which shares times with Punk music (really wild screamers mostly from Britain) but is then taken over by New Wave in the 80s (A lot of synthesized music, more melodious, and quite different from other rock genres), then comes Grunge (synthesizer gone, back to basics garage band type music with a drummer, lead guitarist, rhythm guitarist, and bass--hard hitting and then is quickly swallowed up by a very similar Alternative music for the rest of the 90s). Later half of the 90s and early 2000s you get Nu Metal (one of my favorites, combines rap and absolutely slamming rock), and then Death Metal, Hardcore (and a slew of other names of similar genre. Not so crazy about this one, personally. It's less on melodies and more on rapid jumping from one riff to the next.) If you decide to take the journey, you'll hear some of the greatest music ever. Songs that will become a part of who you are--everything from poignant to marching-to-war music that will jolt your T levels beyond whatever you've experienced before. Nature provides the best drugs.
