A Guy Hears Bohemian Rhapsody For The First Time Ever

Preston, England

I love the idea of this video. A man called Joey listens to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody for the first time in his life and the film tracks hos reactions to the transitions and changes in pace. It is quite lovely to see how much he enjoys it. The video reminds me how much I was blown away by the song too. I already liked Queen from hearing Killer Queen and Seven Seas Of Rye but this song blew me through the stratosphere. I couldn't wait to hear it again and ran round telling everyone about it - many friends had the same startled reactions too. Still one of the greatest achievements in Rock and who can forget the Wayne's World take on it too? Youtube of Joey's first hearing. Arthur Chappell

The song alone is great to listen to - of course there is a more definitive version than Queen's

I saw this video the other week. I couldn't get over not ever hearing Bohemian Rhapsody before. Must be my age, as I remember it first time round!

@arthurchappell I was in the NAAFI club and it came up on the jukebox. I didn't watch TOTP much in those days

That is neat , thanks for sharing. I also like when they do this with kids and teenagers. The problem is they play the worst music for them. This one is worthy.

Actually I wasn't sure which song that was until it began, but it was great hearing and singing with it again. It's hard to believe the younger generation missed a lot of what we grew up with. Aww, and for a moment there I thought I grabbed your post with it's first comment, but it looks like Fredo beat me to it by less than a minute.

@arthurchappell I was lost for a minute there. I call us commenters although maybe that's not even a word? Your word I think of on TV stations, but no biggy I've found myself singing portions of that song here and there today even after not hearing it for years.

I don't follow the movies much so I gather it hasn't been released yet?

@arthurchappell what movie are we talking about our is the you tube snippet only one small part of an actual movie? When others tallied about watching the movie I figured they were referring to the you tube one in your link.

@ledante if the listener only tunes into hip hop or garage music it is quite possible

@arthurchappell I dunno about that, Bohemian Rhapsody is featured in many films and television shows, even commercials. You'd have to really isolate yourself to avoid it...

That is just the right reaction. When I first heard it I listened all through it then I repeated it about twice until I was sure I had heard it all and it is just amazing.

I can't believe they managed to find someone who had got through life and never heard this song! It is one of my favourite Queen tracks. We saw the film last week and I loved it, although I'm not much of a Queen fan.
