My friends screamed the lyrics to yet another old song I didn't know last week in IED. "Is this a Christmas song?" I asked obliviously. Bobby face-palmed and Andrew cracked up. Apparently, this was some song called Bohemian Rhapsody, not the Nutcrack Ballet. The whole melody switch was confusing me, I guess. I continued to complain about how annoying Bobby's and Joey's singing was for the remainder of the song.
Well, I decided to listen to Bohemian Rhapsody over the weekend. I learned two main things.
1. Despite the name of the group, Queen, being a synonym for female ruler and the feminine soprano sound of the song, the group is actually male! (Who knew?)
2. Bohemian Rhapsody is actually a pretty good song! I like how there are so many different parts to it, making it fun to sing.
I have been opera singing this song for the past two hours, undoubtably annoying my family to no end. If I do say so myself, I am hitting these notes pretty darn well. :D (I bet some of you would beg to differ on this claim...).
My favorite parts are "carry on, carry on," "mama oooh", and "Galileo Galileo." Who else loves this song!?!?
Great post. when people sing old songs it kind of gets a little anoying.
