Bohemian Rhapsody
04.19.05 (10:31 pm)   [edit]
I caught an episode of American Idol last week. I'm not a big fan of American Idol but I've been watching a few episodes here and there this season. And the only contestant that I know is Constantine, and he's the the reason that I'm watching Idol at all.

I mean this guy rocks. Last week he sang Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody, albeit a very short version but that guy was good. And he did justice to that song. Even the cold-blooded Cowell agreed. "Astonishing" he said. And he wasn't being sarcastic about it.

Constantine's rendition of that song renewed my interest in Queen & Freddie Mercury. The first version of Bohemian Rhapsody that I heard was the hip-hop version from The Braids. Later I found out that Queen was the original performer. And later I managed to get a live duet by Axl Rose (of Guns N Roses) & Elton John. That song is so intriguing. A heartbreaking song about a youth who threw his future away because of a short moment of madness.

"Mama...life has just begun. And now I've gone and throw it all away". That song is magic.

And thus Bohemian Rhapsody deserves to be in The List.

14. Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody

um... i don't watch much american idol... in fact i hate it.. but i did happen to catch that clip of constantine... i'm a musician, and from that stand point i feel i can make the observation that he thoroughly butchered that song...
sorry :)

Hey..I love Constantine...he has this great style about him. A few weeks ago he pulled of a freakin Parttridge Family song...amazing.

Yeah, I saw that too. I think the song title is "I Think I'm In Love" or something like that...you reckon he'd win this competition? ;)

the song was "I think I love you"
I think he has as good a chance as any of the six left.
