Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" was released as a single in the United Kingdom on 31 October 1975 and in the United States that December. At some time before June 1976, my sixth-grade music teacher at Ottawa Hills Elementary School in Ottawa Hills, Ohio, brought the song in for us to hear, discuss, and sing. We went through it so often that I have had all the lyrics and all the instrumental parts memorized ever since I was eleven. Or as a classmate said when I wrote a March 2010 post about listening to "Bohemian Rhapsody" with my children Miles (then 10) and Luisa (then 6), "the lyrics are burnt into my brain."
