"Bohemian Rhapsody" expresses Western liberal philosophy, integrates the rock spirit of being rebellious and true to oneself, and expresses the vitality and self-awareness of young people in its unique way. At the same time, it has a bohemian artistic temperament with a non-traditional music style, which is unique and has strong ideological and artistic qualities.
In addition, "Bohemian Rhapsody" implies Freddie's personal psychological trauma. He recalled: "Freddie hid the insecurity in his childhood and used it to cover up his debauchery outside. He was A complicated man, he didn’t explain the meaning of the lyrics, but I think he put himself in that song”.
The artistic value of "Bohemian Rhapsody"
In a sense, "Bohemian Rhapsody" subverts rock music in the form of classical music . The music structure is extremely special. There is no repeated chorus in the song, but it is composed of many fragmented parts with widely different styles and paces, including opera, heavy metal, a cappella, etc., and is full of violent stream of consciousness and nightmare colors. This is incredible in pop music.
The sad lyrics are more straightforward, and they are the inner cry of Freddy himself. Looking at the lyrics, I suddenly felt a desolate feeling of sympathy. It turns out that whether it is ordinary people like us or geniuses like Freddie, we will have similar feelings.
