Bahahaha! Quite the classic. I was first turned on to this song when I was in the 8th grade, when my English teacher random burst into song. The teacher from the class next door popped her head in for the, "Mama mia, mama mia," part and then disappeared. No one ever believes me when I tell this story...

One of the craziest songs ever. So crazy it's memorable. This song is one of my favorite classics. It's usually on at least once a week while I'm studying.

Me too!!! And it's one of those songs you have to sing along with (including the guitar)!

I can't hear the song without thinking of that movie :) I love it! (The song, not so much the movie)
The world lives between those who say it cannot be done and those who say that it can. And in my experience, those who say that it can be done are usually telling the truth. --Lord Vetinari (Discworld, Raising Steam)

I was never a big fan of Queen but once I've listening to this song by a few other people I've come to love the original version. :tiphat:

A classic that will never be lost.

Saw Adam Lambert with Queen a couple years back.
It was an amazing concert.
