    Freddie Mercury is the sole creator of Bohemian Rhapsody. He was a funny and flippant person on the outside but complex and insecure individual on the inside, always trying to square up his actual life with his childhood. He put a lot of himself into that song though he never explained the lyrics to anyone, not even his bandmates.
    Luckily, his band members trusted his vision for this song because they never heard all of the song before they began recording it. He would just play parts of the song on the piano for them, then stop to explain that something operatic would happen here and so on. He had it all worked out in his head including all the harmonies in his head.
    The famous a cappella intro is only Freddie singing. He laid down 5 separate tracks of himself singing and harmonizing with himself. For the grand chorale, the group layered 160 tracks of vocal overdubs (using 24-track analog recording), with Mercury singing the middle register, guitarist Brian May the low register, and drummer Roger Taylor the high register (John Deacon was on bass guitar but did not sing).
    Freddie had a vivid imagination and it is reflected in the language he used in his lyrics. Scaramouche was a buffoonish character in 16th-century comedy commedia dell’arte shows and Beelzebub is an archaic name for Satan. Bismillah is Arabic for "In the name of God" or "In the name of Allah" and is the first word in the Qu'ran. (Freddie was born on the island of Zanzibar off the coast of Africa and educated at British boarding schools in India, so his experience with cultures was unique. )

    • @ZENOBlAmusic
      @ZENOBlAmusic 3 года назад +4

      That is a very good overview about the creation of the song. Freddie did sing lower, middle and higher parts of the song. The lowest notes he sang was G2 sections and he also did G5 sections. Freddie sang 3 octaves in the song, which is something you don't see that often.

      @Sassypaws4927 3 месяца назад +1

      ​@@mammasrose5525 Actually,. Ba'al Zebub or Beelzebub was occasionally known as the Lord of the Flies. It s a name derived from a Philistine god, formerly worshipped in Ekron, and later adopted by some Abrahamic religions as a major demon. The name Beelzebub is associated with the Canaanite god Baal.
      In theological sources, predominantly Christian, Beelzebub is another name for Satan. He is known in demonology as one of the seven deadly demons or seven princes of Hell, Beelzebub representing gluttony and envy. The Dictionnaire Infernal describes Beelzebub as a being capable of flying, known as the "Lord of the Flyers", or the "Lord of the Flies".
