Bohemian Rhapsody isn't all that good!

Look I'm a huge Queen fan and this isn't really a rant.

However, if I was to make up a list of my 20 favourite Queen songs then I don't think I'd include THAT song.

What about the excellent You're My Best Friend, Don't Stop Me Now, Save Me or The Show Must Go On?

Those are all better songs than Bohemian Rhapsody. Are you a Queen fan? Do u agree or disagree?

Carlos*ie? Complaining about something? Never thought I'd see the day.

Anyway, I totally disagree with you, I think Bohemian Rhapsody is a phenominal song and definately one of the best, if not the best, Queen track. The originality and uniqueness of it, coupled with the amazing diversity within the song and the sheer beauty of the music, let alone the vocal ability and that amazing guitar solo, make this song a landmark of musical history. Don't Stop Me Now is the only Queen song which I would consider placing above it, and that's mainly on account of Shaun of the Dead.

Aye, it's creative songwriting when it's best.

The fact that people like Moron think it sucks says a lot, not just about the song.

Nape, I misagree.

One of the greatest songs ever written, and Queen's best IMO. My top 5:

1. Bohemian Rhapsody
2. Don't Stop Me Now
3. I Want to Break Free
4. Fat Bottomed Girls
5. Bycicle Race

I certainly didn't say it was rubbish.

I just think if you look at Queen's back catalogue then Bohemian Rhapsody is NOT the best.

On a lighter note I just KNEW sum1 would bring up Shaun of the Dead.

Brilliant scene that intit?!! :)

Bohemian Rhapsody is great. My favorite Queen song, however, is Crazy Little Thing Called Love. Probably nowhere near their best, as I'm no Queen expert to know, but certainly my favorite.

I've heard about three queen songs. Bohemian is the best of the three. So it makes my top20 list.

I wholeheartedly agree, it's been overplayed like f*ck, but it's pretty much the most original and relevant piece of music of our time.

It starts with as a capella song, then moves to a sad slow part and then jumps successfully to little bit of opera and finally blends a bit of heavy rock.
It has no chorus... tell me one song with half the originality.

It may be played too much but it's definitely not overrated like let's say Lennon's Imagine.
I obviously grown tired of it but it remains in my opinion as the greatest song ever written.

In my opinion the only Queen song that comes somewhat close in brilliance is the criminally underrated Innuendo. This is the definition of an epic song. And it presents the world's greatest vocalist ever at it's very best.
Don't get me wrong there are great Queen songs but these two in my opinion break the boundaries of a Pop song, that songs like Don't Stop Me Now (the only Queen song in my playlist atm), Bycicle Race, Radio Ga Ga don't.
