Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" rocked the nation and considerably beyond

By James Albert


"Bohemian Rhapsody" is a timeless masterwork belonging to the legendary rock band "Queen" which was published in 1975. The cd "A night in Opera" is widely known as an excellent duper song and this song was taking over on the music charts. Freddy Mercury was the lyricist and the key phrases included in this song created a significant controversy. There was a claim that quite a few words were taken from the holy Quran, this was not appropriate. This tune was successful and an incredible number of records were sold in just nine weeks time period, which was an incredible success for composers and also the music company.

The record was obviously a trend in the music business. It was a combination of hard rock, ballad and guitar solo, which was highly valued by critics. Bohemian Rhapsody was written and produced by Freddie Mercury and the recordings were concluded after constant rehearsals of 4 months. It had taken more than 1 studio to record the song, which makes it unique and unique. Six minutes of this masterwork took lot of work from the music band. The song has it all and eliminates each and every mood. Combination of a ballad and hard rock was something very fresh and new which took a very long time to integrate and produce this song. Freddie tamed this piece of music like his newborn baby and the result was a song which was the most significant success of the rock band ever before. This was outrageous and everything appeared to be just perfect. Many people say that a number of the words were offensive as it targeted a specific faith but according to Freddie Mercury they were just used to complete the rhyme.

The song was brought out in the British isles and was popular in other countries also. Other songs from this cd also gained popularity but this one turned out to be a superb song of mid 70's. The song is having Freddie's classic voice. This track appeared to be divided in 5 sections. All segments of the song are arranged in a way that it blended flawlessly with the mood. The harmonies and all other areas were result of Freddie's creative thinking. The background tunes were just carried out with piano and bass and it was finished with hard rock music which was absolutely impressive and different.
The intro of Bohemian Rhapsody was marvelous. It took practically 3 weeks to accomplish this record that was having trails of 120 repetitions. The creation of a new era of music was completed with this recording.

Back then when the rock band, Queen, recorded the song, it became popular as Freddie's master-piece as it was written by him and he was the one, who had the entire song in his mind even before writing it down. It was just a notion which became reality, and came in a very special moment in his existence.

Not anyone understands precisely what the lyrics means. Freddie has admitted that it is linked to people's relationships but he has not exposed the mystery around it. As stated by band's members this track was special because Freddie had the concept in regards to the song and authored the very beginning while he was playing a piano.

The song gained popularity for a second time in late 90's after the death of Freddie Mercury. This song continued to be on music charts of the England and some other nations around the world for week after week. The track smashed all the records. This song is exactly about relationships and the unique selling point of Bohemian Rhapsody were its wonderful and unique lyrics. The interpretation of the song is complicated and very hard to understand. As described, this will certainly at all times remain a big mystery and with the death of Freddie, the reality vanished eternally. Bohemian Rhapsody was undoubtedly a record-breaking number of its time and acquired success for each and every individual associated with it.
