I remember seeing Queen in concert and Bohemian Rhapsody was the only song they didn't play live as they couldn't do it justice. So they walked off stage and let it play in the dark. When I first heard it on release, my mouth dropped and I stood riveted to the spot. Absolutely magic! Freddy Mercury was one of the most charismatic singers ever and his stage prescence dominated you. I love early Queen, but I think they lost it slightly after Jazz. By the way, the video for the song was the first one ever and I believe that Sheer Heart Attack was the first punk/thrash song too.
Ertai, if you like songs which are made up of different tunes, try 10cc's Une Nuit a Paris (One night in Paris). Hilarious lyrics and very strange tune, but I love it.
Melusine, please could you put your sisters version on the CD you are sending, if you have it? I would love to hear it!
