Queen is one of the quintessential rock bands of the latter part of the twentieth century. News of the World is probably my favorite album and the one that introduced me to Freddie Mercury and the rest of the group. One of my favorite songs, and according to many the band’s Magnum Opus, is Bohemian Rhapsody. How about a bit of music trivia. After the song of course.
The car scene from Wayne’s World? Dead on freaking target. This song has everything! Metal Riffs and a fast pace, rocking guitars, slow melodic tones, it’s a true rockers anthem. Except for one thing. It IS missing one thing that seems to be present in most popular music then and now. Can you guess what it is? The answer is below the fold.

Have you guessed yet?
The Chorus!
There is no chorus in Bohemian Rhapsody. The closest thing is in the beginning of the song but that’s not really a true repeated chorus.
Oh yeah, and that Wayne’s World thing? Had to post it. The car bit is in there, just wait for it…
