Is this just fantasy?

Any way the wind blows
Doesn't really matter to me

RE: Is this the real life? - 142857 - 02-03-2011 09:02 AM

Mama, just killed a man,
Put my gun against his head, pulled my trigger now he's dead,

RE: Is this the real life? - Yuji - 02-03-2011 09:31 AM

Mama, life has just begun,
But now I've gone and thrown it all away...

RE: Is this the real life? - Semicolon - 02-03-2011 07:16 PM

Mama, hooh-ooh-ooh-ooh,
Didn't mean to make you cry

RE: Is this the real life? - 142857 - 02-04-2011 01:45 AM

Goodbye everybody, I've got to go,
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth,

I was a little kid when this song came out. Most of you were not born until years or even decades after this song came out.

I heard that the record company tried to get Queen to split this song into 3 or 4 different songs and release them separately. But thankfully Queen stuck to their guns.

RE: Is this the real life? - Yuji - 02-04-2011 01:59 AM

Mama, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooooh...
(Any way the wind blows)
I don't wanna die...
Sometimes wish I'd never been born at all...

LOL, I was already close to middle age, when it came out.

I am not a Queen fan at all .

RE: Is this the real life? - Yuji - 02-04-2011 02:12 AM

*begins guitar solo*

I was born in 1981, so my first exposure to this song was via the soundtrack of the 1992 film "Wayne's World." Since then, I have become well-acquainted with the band's catalog of hits, and would like to hear more of their B-sides.

RE: Is this the real life? - MindMatter - 02-04-2011 02:15 AM

*gets excited* I love this bit

I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouch, Scaramouch, will you do the Fandango?
Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightening me

(1) You were close to middle age in 1975??? I was 10 years old. I would have thought that you would have been close to middle age in 1992 when it came out again on Wayne's World. I'm guessing you were in your 20s in 1975.

(2) You don't need to be a Queen fan to be a Bohemian Rhapsody fan.

I was 25 in 1975 ( not really close to middle age, sorry)

I was more into country and southern rock, than british glam-rock.

nice song though
