On this day, October 31, 1975, Queen released an “outsider” song to the producers and critics of the day, which would become one of the most famous classic rock songs.
The insurmountable, operatic Bohemian Rhapsody – together with The show must go on – is considered the “anthem” of the band, thanks mainly to Freddie Mercury’s inner – almost autobiographical – interpretation of the sad lyrics, which brings tears to the eyes.
Mercury believed in the song and – despite the objections and obstacles the band encountered before being able to release it – when it was released as a single it was a big box office success. So then it was included in the band’s now classic album A Night at the Operawhich was released on November 21, 1975.
Despite the mixed reviews it received at the time, Bohemian Rhapsody has become one of Queen’s best-known songs, and frequently appears on various lists of the greatest songs of all time.
In 2004, the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. In December 2018 it was announced as the most popular song of the 20th century on the internet and in 2019 it reached 1 billion views on YouTube.
