Almost 100hrs of work doing this cover makes me truly understand why this masterpiece of Queen is said to be THE greatest song in the history of pop music. It's absolutely mind blowing to just think about how much dedication and professionalism the musicians had, to be able to pull out this formidable and ultra-complex masterpiece in the 70's when music was still recorded onto tape machine.

When I first started to listen to the song when I was a kid, I tended to skip the opera part in the middle of the song as I found it to be melodic-less and a bit chaotic. As I grew up I've come to realize that the opera part is in fact where the essence of the song lies, and is indeed the most interesting part to re-create as well. To build from scratch and put layers after layers in, and eventually achieve the dramatic and vivid soundscape is a truly irreplaceable experience you can only get from making music records.

The video is inspired by the original music video, looks creepy at times lol but is definitely fun to watch :)

在接近百小时的爆肝，录制了100多条音轨和80条视频直到怀疑人生之后，终于切身体会到为什么很多人说Bohemian Rhapsody是流行音乐史上最伟大的作品了。难以想象在还在用24轨磁带机录音，剪辑远没有现在数字音频工作站方便的70年代，是怎样的创作热情和职业性让皇后乐队创造出如此华丽恢弘的作品。

小时候最开始听这首歌总会跳过歌剧的段落，觉得旋律感不强结构乱乱的，现在反而觉得这段恰恰是最有味道的，无论是音乐性还是歌词内容都是整首作品的灵魂所在。录这段也是最有意思的，逐个声部的拆解、还原和叠加，最后形成富有戏剧张力、画面感极强的声音图景，真心体验到了录制唱片独有的一种乐趣和成就感~

视频灵感来自原版MV，虽然有点鬼畜的既视感hhhhhhh但是感觉还是挺有意思的~
