What is Bohemian Rhapsody About?

I think its about a guy in his early 20s (probably out of college)who killed a man and is sentenced to death...But what's with the rest of the song? ugh

And before the 3 minute mark its a perfect song, but I just don't see at all what people like about the Opra part, it just ruins the feeling. And some people say it's the best part?

I agree the opera part completely ruined it.

What!!??

Horrible song, i just dont like it.

Ill take Another one bits teh dust any day ofer that one.

The best part IMO is from 4:14 on

Well, maybe if you actually knew the meaning of the entire song then you could appreciate the opera part. Sadly, I can't help you there.

The opera part is all about the trial some saying let him go (my guess is his lawyer and possibly some of the jury) and the other part saying we won't let you go (Other part of the jury, the prosecution etc).

O love that song.

Like most classic rock songs there is no meaning. It's just a bunch of gibberish. You listen to it and don't think about the lyrics.gameguy6700

No, thats progressive rock >_>. 20 minutes of something that makes no sence, but sounds so damn awesome.

the second part of the opera is about letting the guy go

the first part is screaming

I thought it was about aids. W/e.

I can tell you what the Christian parody is about. :P

Boston, STYX, Queen, Beatles, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath, Meat Loaf, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Supertramp, and more would like to have a word with you.....

Just a great song, I don't know how people can hate on it.

All i know is that the song is full of win. It really shows the emotion that Freddie could put into his songs. The end always makes me sad when I think about how he died. BUT, then I listen to Dont Stop Me Now and get happy again.:)

Ruined? That song is nothing short of flawless. Every part is awesome

Better put on a flame shield.

Anyway, I think the opera part adds a lot of musicianship to Bohemian Rhapsody. Whatelse can you expect from "A Night at the OPERA"?

You got a problem with Styx, punk? :evil:

It's a great song. I think it's about something like damnation, or maybe a poor, sad life.
