The greatest pleasure was to see this played in its entirety without a single interruption. Wish more reaction folks would follow your lead. Thank you. That aside... yes... this was the level of musical quality that was common throughout the 1970s. We didn't know how good we had it.

To create that harmony of voices, to replicate the opera chorus, they re-recorded the tape 36 times without ever missing a note. In 1975, there were no synthesizers, computers, or autotune. It was all pure talent!

When this came out as a single in 1975 or '76, I stared at the radio in utter disbelief. Ive been in a lot of cover bands in my youth, and NOBODY ever had the guts to try to cover this song! You may be interested to know that the song follows the classical rhapsody form. These guys were no joke! One day, my first wife and I were listening to the album A Night at the Opera, which has this song. As you can imagine, the whole album is just as mind-blowing as this song. When the album was finished, my wife looked at me and said "I wonder if they realized they created such a masterpiece?"

another fun fact- Brian My did not use a traditional pick- he found they were too soft and pliable. One day he decided to try a coin and settled on a six pence coin. that was back during their very beginning. Oh, and people always remark on the great harmonies at the beginning of this video. they might be surprised to know that section is all Freddie.he had that wide of a range and such tone control. i'm sure you get annoyed sometimes as well when people fail to do a bit of research before posting reactions.....

Written by Freddie Mercury. It became no.1 again upon the death of Freddie in November 1991. In 2018, the release of Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody brought the song renewed popularity and chart success worldwide. Proof positive that Queen remains bigger than ever, over 45 years after its release, the band's signature tune “Bohemian Rhapsody” has been officially certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in March 2021. The award represents 10 million or more in sales and stream equivalents in the United States. All the harmonies at the beginning were actually all Freddie harmonising with himself. No easy feat for the 70s.

Rhapsody is a characteristic musical piece of romanticism composed of different thematic parts freely united and without any relationship between them. This song recreates the myth of "Faust" in four blocks. The ballad, where he confesses a murder to his mother, and says goodbye to her. The Opera buffa, where the judgment of his soul is recreated, where angels and demons discuss condemnation or forgiveness. The Rock part, where the Devil makes his plea, saying that he cannot escape his sentence, nor live a life dedicated to evil, and then pretend to betray him, with excuses such as that he has had an unjust life. And the final section, where he reflects, and does not care about condemnation or forgiveness, since he has always lived according to the circumstances or how the wind turned ... (Leaving to free interpretation, according to the lyrics or classical musical language, that Freddie knew a lot about that, if he was convicted or saved)

Bohemian Rhapsody was certified Diamond sales status by the RIAA 💎 Which means Boh Rap is the most streamed song on KZbin pre1990s. It has over 1.3 billion views. Queen members Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor, & John Deacon. This song was written by Freddie … his masterpiece or opus, if you will. Definitely do SOMEBODY TO LOVE another brilliant song.

Queen is the "Real Deal" and everything that they sing is a hit. Freddie Mercury's voice and performance is one to hear and see. Their harmony and musical talents are outstanding. The various changes of rhythm in their music in one song alone is phenomenal. Freddie started styling his own outfits. Some other songs are: "We Are The Champions," "Another One Bites The Dust," "Somebody To Love" & "We Will Rock You" to name just a few for now. Have fun! 😁👍🏽R.I.P. Freddie! 😇🙏🏽💖

It cracks me up because everyone seems to think that all four men are harmonising but they are not. It is THE Freddie Mercury just harmonising with himself, just the incredible voice of Freddie. As a Brit you are born knowing this song. The Live Aid concert 1985, 80,000 people in the palm of his hand, playing his favourite instrument, the audience!! No one person had ever or will ever have that incredible ability again. Try Green Day concert Hyde Park 2017, 45 yrs after it was released ad 26 after Freddie left us.

Outstanding video, I love it every time. Thank you. Brian May is the guitar player for Queen and has been hailed as one of the best if not THE best rock guitar player of all time, he is just soooooo good, he is my favorite guitar player. He will never admit to being the best, he still holds several of the greats as better than himself but I for one think he is being too modest in that idea. Besides being really great at playing his guitar, he actually built his guitar with his father when he was a teenager, with stuff they had laying around the house. His guitar is unique and has a sound that no other guitar does or will. You can now buy a Brian May guitar, and it is close to this one but nothing sounds like Brian's own Red Special. Queen is a band that the more you listen to them, the more you understand that they just kept progressing, never doing the same thing twice. All four members wrote songs for the band and all had number one hits though each of them is musically very different from the others. Each member of this band is rated at the top in his instrument.

Fat Bottom Girls is the first rock (popular) song about Girls with big butts years before Sir Mix A Lot and Baby Got Back. You can't go wrong with any Queen song. It is impossible to say all the great things about this group. I think they are as close to perfect as a group can get. Another group you should check out is Home Free. They are an acapella group, almost as good as Queen. A good place to start is Man of Constant Sorrow, this song really shows off what the vocal percussionist can do.

Welcome to Queen! Queen fans are extremely passionate and love to watch folks react to Queen, especially the deep cuts that are not as well known. I agree that Queen excels in their live performances but I always recommend listening to the studio version first and then checking out the live version. Unfortunately you will not find any liver performances of Queen after 1986 and you will have to either react to the lyric videos or music video (if one exists). You will also see that Queen cannot be easily categorized as a certain type of band that plays only one genre of music. The four members of Queen had different tastes in music and you will see that they did rock, southern rock, blues, rock operas, stadium rock, folk, etc…. Please include “Who Wants To Live Forever” in your lists of songs to react to. The 1986 performance from Budapest is fantastic but the one from Wembley is also very good. Thanks for checking out Queen! 👑👑👍😊

As a longtime fan of Queen and Bohemian Rhapsody, I was just enjoying some reactions from channels I already subscribed to that somehow slipped under the radar. This led me to discover your channel. You are funny, engaging (and beautiful) and so, have a new subscriber. Cool how that works. What can be said about this iconic song. Nothing else like it. Freddie Mercury is coy about its meaning, but I believe its a coming out song of sorts for him. The ballad part near the beginning where he says he just killed a man, the man he killed was his old self. His conservative parents weren't thrilled, hence "Mama, didn't mean to make you cry."

The opening segment with the four faces is actually Freddy Mercury doing four part harmony with just himself, that's how good a singer he really is.

Joy, I enjoyed your reaction. It seems a right of passage for all the reaction channels to react to "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen and then "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" by the Danish National Symphony Orchestra, so I suggest you react to that one next. It will B L O W your mind! 💣

In their early years Queen only wore black or white on stage. The harmony at the beginning is actually all Freddie Mercury. He also enjoyed opera, therefore this style written into the mix. All the guys were well educated and so, so talented. But Freddie was an absolute genius in music. This song rocked my world in high school and continues to do so!

Gary Moore ..... " Still Got The Blues Concert 2010 " the song is 7:06 min. long and was his last performance. His guitar playing will leave you in utter awe and shock, literally the whole song. I believe he died a day after that performance. We love you Gary, my goodness thank you sir, thank you for such songs that heal us, help us and place such life within us, God forgive us upon the times we've taken life for granted, amen. God has blessed the strings since the days of King David playing the lyre as a lowly shepard boy for King Saul, amen.

Hi Joy! First time on your channel and I really enjoyed your reaction, so you can be sure this won't be my last visit! I have plenty of song recommendations for you, but to begin with I will just say you need to react to the beautiful "Love Of My Life"! Someone suggested Rio, which is great, but imo the video quality is not there, so I would recommend the 1986 version from Wembley Stadium. I'll enjoy any one you cover however, so up to you!! Best wishes with your channel!!

Makes you feel as if you were cheated out of a lot of your childhood. I grew up listening to Queen. and I sometimes feel cheated. Listen to Pentatonix they do a lot of queen and a lot of other things too that you may not have heard. They are an acapella group and they are amazing more than amazing. They blew the top off of music and they don't use instruments. You just won't even have words for them. Their vocals have such range
