Side note about Freddie Mercury: " A study by Austrian, Czech, and Swedish researchers released in 2016 concluded that Freddie Mercury had a rare and unique singing voice. The study stated that Mercury likely employed subharmonics, in which the ventricular folds vibrate along with the vocal folds. Most human vocal patterns never use the ventricular folds, with the exception of Tuvan throat singers. In addition, Mercury's vocal cords just moved faster than other people's. While a typical vibrato will fluctuate between 5.4 Hz and 6.9 Hz, Mercury's was 7.04 Hz. To look at that in a more scientific way, a perfect sine wave for vibrato assumes the value of 1, which is pretty close to where famous opera singer Luciano Pavarotti sat. Mercury, on the other hand, averaged a value of 0.57, meaning he was vibrating something in his throat even Pavarotti couldn't move."

Dickie I have to believe that Tina is stating a fact, not an opinion. Ask any composer that question... "Is Freddie Mercury one of the best composers ever?" ...2/3 or 4/5 times, they'll say yes! They might not necessarily like what he has composed, but they'd respect it! Add in his Stage Presence, his Vocal abilities, and his Professionalism in his Performance Skills... how can you not say he's very talented? The proof is there! I can see how you would feel that OPINION is involved here, though! In my opinion, Beethoven was one of the most talented composers ever, also. Well, most people would agree with that! Wouldn't that lead to the assumption that THAT would be a fact? If Everyone agrees on something, that would inevitably lead to it being accepted as a fact! Plus the proof that exists that shows us he was... (Even though it IS Opinion) but with everyone agreeing... :-) Most people believe in God, because a few books say so! Well, Where's the Proof? How do we know that there is a supreme being? We just accept it! ...because a few books say so! and most everybody believes it, therefore it's fact... W R O N G ! ! ! There's no proof that there IS a God, You know, this invisible man who lives in the sky who also, by the way, needs all your cash! Religious Dogma, right? "Freddie was ONE OF the most talented people EVER!" Sorry, but the proof is there, so, yeah, that's a fact! LOL :-)

[@conork325]

Bohemian Rhapsody is a song about coming out, letting go of the previous persona he put on for everybody. The man he killed was himself, the heterosexual he was so he could fit into the world. As he found himself (bisexual) he was also becoming successful as an artist, "life had just begun, but now I've gone and thrown it all away", and feared that as people found out about his sexuality his career would be over. Very difficult to come out back then, "I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all". Treatment of gays was and can still be harsh, "so you think you can stone me and spit in my eye, so you think you can love me then leave me to die": after finding out I'm not straight like you? "Just gotta get right out of here". Accepting his reality and in an effort to not be affected by the situation he feigns "nothing really matters to me, any way the wind blows", indeed. RIP Freddie, and thanks.

Thanks for that. I had suspected for a long time that this song was reactive and about his illness later in his life ("just killed a man" = killed himself - it's a pretty compelling song taken from that point of view) - but according to this video (your explanation makes it much more clear) he wrote it early, and it's positive and totally different.

[@catcallender5913]

TimoManuel33 - bingo! And as a long time Queen fan, been listening to & loving their music for the past 31 years, I get rather perturbed when those who don’t agree with his lifestyle say it written about him giving HIV to all the men he slept with. They say that’s what they mean by mama, just killed a man. First, HIV/AIDS hadn’t emerged or been heard of when he wrote the song. Second, he was still with Mary then & had not yet come out as bisexual/gay. He may have had urges he didn’t understand then, but he had not realized at the time what that meant.

This world was blessed to have Freddie Mercury in it. And not only because of the incredible talent he had. I believe so many people would still be pretending to be someone they weren’t, just so they would have a chance to get somewhere in the world. In Rhapsody, you can hear the emotional pain he was in. When asked, in interviews, what the song was about...what it meant, he lied. In at least one interview, he said Rhapsody was a combination of many songs that he had written over the years. It makes me sad that he felt that he had to hide his truth. And of course, he was a huge reason for people opening their eyes to a “new” killer called AIDS. His death helped save many lives because people took notice. He did not die in vain. Thank you Freddie for sharing your incredible talent with us. Thank you for helping in the fight against “hate”. I don’t know if you knew that you were doing that. Maybe none of us knew it, at the time. I hope that someday I will hear you sing - face to face.

Intelligence and true talent that Freddie learned to play music upside down while lying in bed. He had a piano as the headboard of his bed and, when inspired, would reach back and play what he'd heard in his dreams. His vocal range was so impressive that in 2016 it even inspired a team of European scientists. He poured his heart out into the songs. They’re whimsical. They’re ethereal at times. They’re painful. He was a charismatic genius, not afraid to go after what he wanted. Freddie inspired not only as a writer and as a musician and as a performer but ultimately as a man. He died young, he lived his life to the full and he crammed in an amazing amount of music. More than most people could in five lifetimes. What a brave and courageous man. He never dies because he lives in his songs and our hearts. Love you...Xoxox ❤

[@openmindedone]

Lizette Martinez I had always heard the song is about him coming to terms with his inevitable death because he knew he was sick tor a long time but kept it a secret. the part with "I see a little silhouette" is actually describing the scene of judgement day (thunderbolt and lightning/very very frightning)as he pleads with God - im just a poor boy"let me go" (He says Bis mil laah) Arabic for in the name of God as he is told no no no. then he sees Hell "Oh mama mia" and finally acknowledged he is going to hell ( a devil put aside for me)? the last uptempo section is a confrontation with the man he contracted hiv/aids from. the first line of the song is the clue Is this the real life? or is this just fantasy? and when we die the reality begins.so the reality of this world is "Nothing really matters"

DreamWork Wellness LLC scratch the „rock“ Imo, it’s the best song ever written.

[@stephenmcgady2019]

The darn thing is, the only real virtuoso among them was Brian. If you put Freddie behind a screen and listened you would know he was good, but you wouldn't think GOAT. But put him on stage and WOW! Roger and John were really quite ordinary. But together they really made great music. I mean they wrote some admittedly really stupid songs (I'm looking at you Leroy Brown:), but for a stretch of 6 albums in a row, they wrote iconic songs that we'll listen to for the rest of our lives. I'm not going to try to figure it out anymore, but I'm glad I'm old enough to have had their albums with all the extra songs that you won't hear these days. For example, people know Bohemian Rhapsody and You're my Best Friend, but may never have heard Death on Two Legs, '39, Prophet's Song, Love of my Life, Good Company which are all on the same album. That side 2 is one of the best album sides going. (I know, what's an album side? - sigh)

[@ginadixon3678]

Bohemian Rhapsody is indeed a confession but not only about his sexuality but what he had sacrificed to for his life of fame. When he is saying goodbye everybody I’ve got to go he is actually admitting he made a decision he had to live with. The sacrifice you ask was the exchange of his soul for his success. Confirmed in the hook him begging to be let go, let him out of what had already been done. Which is why he also mentioned beelzebub has a devil put aside for him, meaning he is awaiting his time for beelzebub to come collect. To me it seems he was being literal and had not understood what he was doing, also why he says it’s too late my time has come. These classic bands are going to be known until the end of time for this amazing piece. I love Queen and Freddie he is an amazing composer and musician.

I agree with what you have to say, but also, it's like a foreshadowing of his life, from the fame and the fortune, to where you can relate this song to where he loses his life and battle with AIDS in the future. Bone chilling in a sense, you can say he wrote his death song, and didn't even know it, or did he? As you say, look at the lyrics, and relate it to his life's journey, Just a breakdown of some of his lyrics, and how it could be his foreshadowing: Fantasy (rock star life), poor boy (he was poor growing up), killed a man (bisexual and description of how it happened HIV), too late my time has come / body's aching all the time(AIDS and eventual death), Thunderbolt and lightning very very frightening me (he was afraid of his lifestyle), Easy come easy go will you let me go Bismillah, no we will not let you go, let him go (deal with the devil for his soul), Oh baby can't do this to me baby (he loved his life, he doesn't want to die), Nothing really matters to me Anyway the wind blows (In the end, face the truth about his life, I did, I entertained, a legacy will live on.)

Everyone stops what they are doing and sings along to the song anytime it is played. The explanation is a bit screwy, but people make suppositions based on what they want to be true. If he had been a wife beater or a pedophile, people would not have embraced such an attitude of "I gotta be me". And before anyone freaks out, I was making a point of there are limits to "I gotta be me". But Freddie did make it a life work to be himself. This much we know. His voice and his privacy gave him that slight air of mystery. He loved what he did, but I am betting he felt that the world did not own him, as so many do to famous people.

It wasn't brave for anyone to record a long song... it was a huge risk to put it out as a single, because the goal was to get it played on the radio and hit singles tended to be around 3 minutes long. The label's fear was that Bohemian Rhapsody would never get played and therefore hurt the album's potential sales. They were wrong, obviously.

Don't forget Hotel California. The Eagles refused to shorten it for radio airplay. They were right not to. True artists stand their ground. The music endures & speaks for itself.

Color Not Colour you’re missing the point about radio play, and Queen as far as I can tell aren’t a prog rock band. The only time you hear shine on you crazy diamond or echoes on radio is on Sirius Xm and they consider them deep cuts lol.
