Is Bohemian Rhapsody the best song ever written? Why? I would have to go as far as saying that Bohemian Rhapsody is my ALL TIME favorite song. Apart from great lyrics, it changes from genre to genre effortlessly, and Freddie Mercury... The man was the best male vocalists of the time. no can or will be able to pull a song like that into a cover.

I don't know if is the best song, but sure that is one of the best! Is a classic and still lives and I think that will live forever. Even in about 100 years if the humanity still existing and still loving music, sure this music will stay in much of playlists.

Well it's not THE best song ever written. There are a lot of songs out there including most of QUEEN's songs that can be considered great songs. But since Queen and Freddie Mercury is one of my top 5 all-time favorite groups, I will agree with you. Hehehe. Freddie Mercury's gotta be one of the most GIFTED singer and song writer. I love the lyrics and arrangement of "Bohemian Rhapsody" that's why I wince when some American Idol or any contestant try to do their own version of the song 'cuz ... I feel it gets ruined. - it's like someone trying to play the guitar riffs of "Stairway to Heaven" for me. I feel like winging the person - hehehe. I'm sorry, nobody can beat the original.

I also like the song Bohemian Rhapsody, but I don't know if its the best song ever written. Officemates performed like a band and lip sing the song several years ago in a program, since then I appreciated the song everytime it is played. I also try singing the song on the magic sing but can't sing it well. I guess I would just like to listen to it.

I love that song too... It's unique and doesn't get boring as the time goes by. Definitely a classic and most people's favorite.
