Ukazał się czwarty, studyjny album zespołu Queen zatytułowany A Night at the Opera.
[48. rocznica]
Utwór „Bohemian Rhapsody” był pierwszym singlem z tego albumu. Piosenka łączy w sobie trzy różne formy muzyczne: a cappella, ballada operowa oraz elementy hard rocka. Mimo nowatorskiej formy i długości prawie 6 minut, utwór znalazł się na singlu i okazał się ogromnym sukcesem komercyjnym, stając się jednocześnie punktem zwrotnym w karierze zespołu.

Tekst piosenki
Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Caught in a landslide No escape from reality Open your eyes Look up to the skies and see I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy Because I'm easy come, easy go Little high, little low Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me Mama, 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 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, everybody, I've got to go Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth Mama, ooh Any way the wind blows I don't want to die I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all I see a little silhouetto of a man Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango? Thunderbolt and lightning very, very frightening me Galileo, Galileo Galileo Figaro Magnifico I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me He's just a poor boy from a poor family Spare him his life from this monstrosity Easy come, easy go, will you let me go? Bismillah! No, we will not let you go Bismillah! We will not let you go Bismillah! We will not let you go Will not let you go Never let you go Oh, mama mia, mama mia Mama mia, let me go Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye? So you think you can love me and leave me to die? Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here Nothing really matters Anyone can see Nothing really matters Nothing really matters to me Any way the wind blows
