Bohemian rhapsody what does the song mean

The world heard this song as a masterpiece of imagination, a great command of musical styles. It was this remarkable tapestry. It was so intricate and had so many layers, but the message, if hidden, was simple. Just as the management, the band, all of us in his life, never admitted that Freddie was even ill, not until the day before he died — because it was his business — he felt the same about this song. I disagree. The song has proved itself over and over. It has stood the test of time.

Freddie will be known throughout the world forever because of it. There is a very clear message contained in it. This is Freddie admitting that he is gay. Do I think he managed it? I think he was in the process of managing it, rather well. Ready to discontinue my love for the song with the other reasons others was thinking. I dont believe it was as deep as described of others. Good job. It meant pretty much boastful coward, which is something a hippy would not find offensive but charming.

You should know the culture from which Queen arose. And a Fandango is a wild party, not just a necktie party Mexican style re. Very interesting analysis, however, they are all incorrect and the truth about the meaning is quite shocking. Queen as a band were very much struggling in Freddie was in a straight relationship at the time, he had no idea he was gay. There is no real meaning to the song. Thanks, Everrett Richardson.

And the coda. Just outstanding storytelling too. It might be a lot of everything said here and nothing at all. Which is a very Alice in Wonderland thing to say, no? I think Freddie was too sensitive and gentle for his time. He suffered so much. Hmmmm, interesting about ZZ Top. I loved that band back in the day. Going to have eto do some research now, hmmmm.

Musical research, yeah! Poonam Choudhary, I doubt we will ever know for sure, but as with any great art, we can decide what to take away from the experience of it. As in the first stanza, it could be everything or nothing at all:.

Greetings, most kind and insightful friends! I just realized this is the th comment on this article about the meaning of Bohemian Rhapsody. I want to thank you all for continuing to share such a thoughtful, intelligent conversation. May it keep on keeping on. I recently read a karmic interpretation of the song that made me wonder if Freddie was familiar with the story of The Earl of Sandwich, Martha Raye, and James Hackman who was hung for murder. Fandango, anyone?

Also, a Rhapsody was a song made up of many styles, like this one. Thanks for this information. It starts with a whisper, then becomes a shout. Read Time: 5 Minute, 12 Second.

I think artists always talk of theirselves also in a cryptical way , and Freddy does it too. What else did I miss? Bababooe April 4, at pm. I always feel its about reincarnation and reality is an illusion. Jill Florio Administrator April 5, at pm. How do you think that could fit? Anonymous April 5, at pm. I want to see the movie again too. Thank you for breaking down the possible meaning, along with breaking down the meaning after the lyrics.

As a relatively! Your explanation links the music and words together in a way that not only rings true, but also enhances the meaning, emotion, and movements of both! Now just a couple of other thoughts…. And where your explanation really shines is the operatic section. It is a powerful song, a frightening song, about life in the darkness as beings with the image of God and the freedom of choice. He like all of us are magnificent beings in perpetual motion with an adversary who is the god of this world but also a defeated foe who understands that our inner thoughts guides us and as a man thinketh so he is.

Freddie gave us a moving song but at the cost of his own soul, foreign semen destroys a man body because it is has no purpose there while it carries immense purpose.

Thank you for your interpretation and explanation of this dilemma to choose right or wrong even knowing the consequences as do many persons today as they practice what is unseemly and call it rightly, a choice but a choice to have their name execrated by God. Freedom of expression! It is sad in a sense because Freddie is very cognizant of the fact that his choice of lifestyle will affect his relationship with his family, band mates, partners, and religious beliefs.

Thank you Freddie Mercury for your sincere creation of a song that is and will be loved by many. I am glad to hear that. I had the same thoughts about this song way back in the mid 90s. The deed is done and he is both spent and bringing a death sentence on his head. As well as the added meaning you suggest of literally embarking on a new life. Yes the song is absolutely brilliant, as was Freddie Mercury. Thanks for this insightful analysis. And thank you for your excellent input also!

Indeed a song we will be attempting to interpret for many years to come! View Larger Image. Wikipedia I think this is fairly clear. Lots of love to you all! Freddie Mercury connected like only a handful of performers have ever done. What do you do? And this has proven to defend that equation.

Keen to do the coveted role justice, Rami had an intimate dinner with Queen guitarist Brian May and Kinks singer Ray Davies, to get to know his character better. Needless to say, Rami was told some brilliant anecdotes about the late musician while also getting to know a softer side to his personality. How he could make you feel you were the most important person in the room. Comedian Sacha Baron Cohen was initially on-board to play Freddie but dropped out in due to creative differences with Queen, while Brian Singer was reportedly fired as director when filming had already started.

Dexter Fletcher later took over from Singer, although the latter has still been given a director credit on the movie. To read Metro.
