gatsbyfan posted a fabulous video of Bohemian Rhapsody a la muppets the other day, and it reminded me of something.

Much as I love the song, I can't hear it nowadays without recalling the stupendous version which was released by Bad News in the 90s.

For anyone who's in doubt, it's a spoof by the guys from The Comic Strip, Peter Richardson, Ade Edmondson, Rik Mayall and Nigel Planer - and yes, it is Bryan May totally cocking things up on the guitar! I've just listened to it for the first time in ages, and seriously, I've got tears rolling down my face and Mr Caz has just handed me my asthma inhaler.

I also love the Waynes World Bohemian Rhapsody:

Heh, yep. They all look like muppets, come to think of it!
But the thing with the Bad News version is that it's SO bad, it's GOOD.

Maybe it's a musician's thing ;-)

No no I get it. They turned it up to 11 ;)
