  • Bohemian Rhapsody - It's meaning?

    I'm interested to learn what the song Bohemian Rhapsody was about, does anyone have any indepth details about it?

    I know a few things, (Bismillah, etc) , but I don't quite understand the full story.

    Oh and who thinks Queen was the greatest band?

    Ah - you came to the right place. The problem is, to understand the song you had to be a teenager in the seventies.

        In fact to understand the song you probably had to be lying with me and my friend Tim in front of the cabin of his father's speedboat singing it as we went full throttle down the river under a full moon in 1978.

            A fun song to listen, though

              It's actually about giving somebody HIV, at least in part. Few people wish to admit it:

              Mama, I just killed a man,
              Put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger, now he's dead
              Mama, life had just begun,
              But now I've gone and thrown it all away
              Mama, ooh, Didn't mean to make you cry,
              If I'm not back again this time tomorrow,
              Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters

              Too late, my time has come,
              Sends shivers down my spine, body's aching all the time
              Goodbye, ev'rybody, I've got to go,
              Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
              Mama, ooh, I don't want to die,
              I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all


              Much like We Are The Champions is about being gay:

              I've paid my dues
              Time after time
              I've done my sentence
              But committed no crime
              And bad mistakes
              I've made a few
              I've had my share of sand
              Kicked in my face
              But I've come through

              And we mean to go on and on and on and on

              We are the champions - my friends
              And we'll keep on fighting
              Till the end
              We are the champions

                Queen kicks tremendous amounts of ass.
                Were you offended by "Fat-Bottomed Girls" or something?

                  Still never actually 'came out' though did he?

                  and no, him being gay was never an issue, I just thought the tunes (yes, pretty much all of them) were f$%king sh1te

                  EDIT: all of them

                      Queen songs drive me up the wall. There's something about them that I find really irritating.

                        People who don't like Queen are ****ed in the head. Simple as that.

                          BI-CYCLE! BIIII-CYCLE!!

                          I seem to replace it with 'I will kill' when I hear the song.

                          It's just really really utterly crap, yet everyone seems to love it. Maybe there's subliminal messages in it or something.
