    From Wikipedia: "Mercury composed this song on piano in 1973, and the song is one only two Queen songs (the other being Bohemian Rhapsody) containing polyrhythm/polymeter (two different time signatures simultaneously 8/8 and 12/8) and a simpler polyrhythm around the end uptempo section, which is very rare for popular music. The lead vocals cover two and a half octaves (G2 - C5).
    The full piece was too complicated to be performed live by the band. The opening piano piece is only known to have been played live once, at the Providence Civic Center on November 14, 1978 (likely in response to a fan shouting for the song near the beginning of the concert.) The intro to the song is all that was played, as they quickly transitioned into Bohemian Rhapsody."
    *** I was actually at this Queen concert in 1978 but I had no idea that I was witnessing history.

Prog rock is more of those, longer, more complex songs that have multiple different movements, much like (as you mentioned) Genesis’s “Supper’s Ready” and Rush’s “2112”. I wouldn’t say that it is necessarily defined as a prog rock song, but it does have elements of prog rock in it.

      Mysty /\ 💁🏾‍♀️ He only started feeling that way 'cos the media were brutal on him...essentially saying he'd used the same 3 fingers on both hands and played them by cords. I don't understand the hate they'd bestowed upon him at that time. He was over the top bombastic...so what? That was his gimmick but ppl were & still are mean.
      I like to think that once Queen were established and Freddie did his solo, Mr. Bad Guy, he'd worked with other studio musicians and liked their way of playing. I believe he'd preferred Mike Moran's playing style over his own or simply was tired of playing and paid him to do it all. After all, Freddie NEVER cooked for himself, NEVER drove himself anywhere, NEVER did the shopping himself except when it came to antiques. So I can do see Freddie feeling it was high time to hire an adequate piano player ✌🏾!

      I actually quite like that they went that direction too, and I think they still had songs that had a rock or more ballad style vibe.
      But early Queen is definitely my favourite as well. I'm talking like My Fairy King, Killer Queen, Seven Seas of Rhye, etc.
      But I don't mind later Queen either, there are only two songs I really don't like and will skip if they come on and that's Bicycle Race and Fat Bottomed Girls.
      But I definitely understand what you're saying.

    I had been a Freddie fan since I was 8, and his death really hit me. But it wasn't until several years after his death that I started borrowing all their albums at the local music library (and bought the albums when I could afford them).
    But I remember quite clearly that my love for *this* masterpiece was instantaneous, when I first heard it back in 1994 or 1995. From that point I knew that I had just heard the best piece of music I would ever hear. I knew this wasn't a song most people would appreciate, but to me it was just what I didn't know I needed. Was it the song's even more ambitious rhapsodic composition? The 'angelic' mid section? Or was it the 'dark angry queen' lyrics? All of it, probably. But the final verse was the part that hit really me deeper than I imagined. What a way to end a song:
    Forget your sing-a-longs and your lullabies
    Surrender to the city of the fireflies
    Dance to the devil in beat with the band
    To hell with all of you, hand in hand
    But now it's time to be goneLa, la, la, la, forever, forever
    His final quote from ten days before he died probably re-captures the 'Freddie spirit' of the song you've just heard:
    "You can do whatever you like with my image, my music, remix it, re-release it, whatever... just never make me boring."

    How can you dislike this song? It's the epitome of what Queen achieved. That their songs are not repetitions. Each song is an education in music as different as each of us, and just as enjoyable IF YOU TAKE THE TIME TO LISTEN.
    I didn't see the appeal initially but I LISTENED and now I find it wonderfully entertaining. The feeling the music instills into your very soul. LISTEN AGAIN AND AGAIN. It will grow to be a favorite!! It won me over and it's wild, it gives a little love and joy!!

    Pure magic, you can see where Boh Rhap came from. Theatre in mystical music, fascinating, inspired and very happy memories from 45 years ago.

      Its no wonder they were called Queen. This song sounds royal, pompous and majestic AF.

      I totally agree. It was the first Queen album I bought and still my favorite, followed by Innuendo. Watch the live version of White Queen at the Odeum. It will blow you away, especially Freddie's piano playing

    I work in a University. Not in musical capacity. A student told me that she was studying music and was studying Queen. I was so excited to hear what she knew and give her my knowledge of Queen as I have loved and know them since the album Queen. She stopped me in my tracks and said she had only just heard Bohemian Rhapsody. Given that I’m sure she will research more x
