"What is Bohemian Rhapsody about, well I don't think we'll ever know and if I knew I probably wouldn't want to tell you anyway, because I certainly don't tell people what my songs are about. I find that it destroys them in a way because the great thing about about a great song is that you relate it to your own personal experiences in your own life. I think that Freddie was certainly battling with problems in his personal life, which he might have decided to put into the song himself. He was certainly looking at re-creating himself. But I don't think at that point in time it was the best thing to do so he actually decided to do it later. I think it's best to leave it with a question mark in the air." Brian May

That was so wrong to find every song referring to Bohemian Rhapsody and merge all the questions together. You wiped out every answer, correction, category change not to mention the questions. I found the original answer and my answer to this question. I also split a lot of the questions away from this one. Your answer came from the same source I got my answer from. I could say yours is more simplistic and delete it, but that would be rude. Out of 51 questions you turned it into one, with a one paragraph answer.

My answer was:

Sorry, but that is definitely not the answer. Bohemian Rhapsody was released in 1975, long before Mercury knew he had AIDS. Freddie was flamboyant, an extrovert, and dramatic to say the least. But to say that he wrote this song because of the illness he died of 16 years later makes him a psychic as well as all of his other attributes. Queen states that Bohemian Rhapsody is about a young man who has accidental killed someone and, like Faust sold his soul to the devil. On the night before his execution, he calls for God in Arabic ("Bismillah" "Basmalah"), and with the help of angels, regains his soul from Shaitan. On the other hand, Kenny Everett (A radio and television personality), quoted Mercury as claiming the lyrics were "simple rhyming nonsense". Looks like Freddie took it to the grave!

What important things happened in the 1970s that are related to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody?

To do with the band really. I know that the Band was struggling at this time money wise and also popularity wise so they needed an album to make them 'big'. This album was 'A Night at The Opera' and contained the great song that is Bohemian Rhaposdy. The band also had management troubles around this time. They noticed that as they were living the low life, management were living it up. The song 'Death on Two Legs (dedicated to...)' is rumoured to be based upon hoow their then manager was 'playing unfarir' :)
