The song also had a striking video,which must have helped things along.\”Bohemian Rhapsody\” was written by Freddie Mercury alone. Unusually, it was written on a telephone book in blocks. Each day he would add a new part to the composure. All the other instrumental parts bass, guitar and drum parts were thought up by Freddie as he went along. The rest of the band refereed to it as Freddie\\\’s thing. Having now idea how the song would turn out, the other members of the band recorded their various parts as directed by Freddie.

The so-called “flower duet” is nothing else but a famous part from a Romantic opera by Leo Delibes, composed in the 1880s. Included in the work entitled Lakme, the “flower duet” still fascinates listeners by the intensity of emotion it triggers. This is the reason for which it has been included in many advertisements, movie soundtracks, not to mention its over-use by the British Airlines and television shows.How come that a classic piece of music can enjoy such mass popularity? Given the fact that the flower duet suggests a calm descent from wispy clouds, it is not at all curious that the British Airlines have come to associate it with the image of their jetliners floating through calm skies. Moreover, the tune is so popular nowadays, that you may even download the “flower duet” as a ring tone for the mobile phone.In the economy of the original musical performance, the “flower duet” helps the audience enter the atmosphere of the opera by the evocation of an exotic natural corner.
