I love this song. Queen rocks.
I love this song. Queen rocks.
It's a great song for singing while you're drunk. A good cheese anthem from an over-rated band. :o
Lee Evans does a very excellent comedy routine with actions along to each line of the song.
That aside, it was voted the best song of all time on a UK chart once.
It's good, and it's only thought of as so good because everyone knows it, and knows all the lyrics too, even if they don't realise it.
I prefer Killer Queen to be honest.
It's a good song by a good band. They weren't great, but they were good. It's probably their best work.
Good song.
[QQ=Calliope]There are other, much better songs by Queen.[/QQ]
I disagree. In my opinion, Bohemian Rhapsody was the only good song Queen ever did.

I like alot of songs by Queen....Although I think Bohemian Rhapsody is the most catchy and well wrote song they have, which makes it so popular. Basically Bohemain Rhapsody Rocks.Originally Posted by Jayren
Like what? I can't think of any songs that could be described as "much better" than Bohemian Rhapsody by any band.Originally Posted by Calliope
The episode of Father Ted where Father Noel sings the song is really very great.Originally Posted by Lindz
And Freedo: Another One Bites the Dust, Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy, Killer Queen...
What? I can't help it if my opinion isn't humble. Bah!
I like the song.
i wonder if they knew "Bismillah" means "i Start in the name of God" in arabic.
:whaaa: I've adopted this smiley
I agree.Originally Posted by Calliope
And Bohemian Rhaspody is good, but it is over rated, IMO. I'm not saying that BR doesn't rock, and I think that it is a great Rock and Roll anthem, but I like many other Queen songs better...
~Another One Bites the Dust
~Killer Queen
~Bicycle Race
~Keep Your Self Alive
~Seven Seas Of Rhye
~Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy
~Under Pressure (With David Bowie) <-- My favourite Queen song by far.

The only one of those I could say might be better than "Bohemian Rhapsody" is "Another One Bites the Dust," and I certainly wouldn't call it much better. "Killer Queen" and "Old Fashioned Lover Boy" are done in an essentially similar style, and as far as I'm concerned "Bohemian Rhapsody" was the peak of that style. Although, to be fair, most of "A Night at the Opera" was in a similar style, and it was done nearly as wonderfully.Originally Posted by Calliope
"Under Pressure" is also a great track... I wouldn't call it as good as "Bohemian Rhapsody" though.
