Bohemian Rhapsody isn't even Queen's greatest worldwide hit:
in position 60
Millions Sold:...Artist/Title
7.............Queen "Another One Bites the Dust" 1980

way down in position no 66
Millions Sold:...Artist/Title
6.7..........Queen "Bohemian Rhapsody" 1975

and there's 3 Beatles songs above AOBTD on the worldwide sales list, so:

So, unless you're prepared to admit that (at least) 60 other songs have dominated the world more than Bo Rhap, then your claim of "world domination" doesn't stand up.

wrong again, Mr Racist

@Brenski Not gonna even argue with you because where ever you got that useless piece of info from does not change the fact that Bohemian Rhapsody wins all the polls going and phone ins on radio stations.
You still prove you are no Queen fan but a troll hating on Freddie every time.
I dismiss anything you post because its like you rubbish.

Bohemian Rhapsody is bigger than 10cc hit Im not in Love.
10CC made some great chart hits in the 70s though and they made nice records but there albums were crap.

you clearly don't "dismiss anything i post" - because you're still replying to me, moron.

how do polls and phone-ins count? money talks, idiot.
Bo Rhap is 66th on the world's biggest singles list - no escaping that fact.

Aww does that piss you off that Freddie's song is 3rd biggest single ever?

Do you get your info from google well obviously you do because you are not capable of thinking straight.

"There" albums were crap. Did you mean their albums?

That's an interesting view because it's what a lot of none Queen fans said about Queen.

I wasn't referring to any 10cc singles in my remark. Maybe you should find a 10cc album called The Original Soundtrack and listen to the first track. It shows that song writers other than Freddie were capable of writing pretend operatic/ musical theatre type pieces and other bands had the same ability that Queen had to portray different musical styles in a convincing way.

And before you cone back with Queen did it first, they didn't.

maybe he should listen to 10CC's - UNE NUIT A PARIS.
Bo Rhap recorded after this song, clearly has some similarities.
