Bohemian Rhapsody


Clar, esti nebun!
Nici o alta formatie, numa’ Queen!
Si nici o alta piesa, decat Diamantul Coroanei…. Bohemian Rhapsody!
A-nnebunit Lupul!

Cloncane toate revistele de vreo douazeci de ani, intorcand piesa pe toate fetele, si tu……?
Ce ai mai putea sa spui? Ce lucruri noi?
Ca a aparut in 1975?
Da.
Ca a fost compusa doar ca piesa de studio? Ca a fost nevoie, initial, sa fie facuta o inregistrare video pentru televiziune, pentru ca piesa era mult prea complicata sa fie cantata live- in acel moment?
Da.
Ca a fost prima piesa ever filmata video si nu pe film?
Da.
Ca filmarea a fost foarte inspirata si high-tech pentru acel moment? Ca s-au folosit prisme optice si camera feedback? Ca a fost trasa in trei ore si a costat 3500$?
Da.
Ca a fost prima filmare cu efect al precedentei imaginilor vizuale asupra versurilor si pasajelor melodice?
Da.
Ca piesa, desi socotita prea lunga pentru radio, nu a putut niciodata sa fie “trimmed” ?
Da.
Ca linia melodica a venit relativ usor, dupa cum spunea Brian May in 2008:”That was a great moment, but the biggest thrill for us was actually creating the music in the first place. I remember Freddie coming in with loads of bits of paper from his dad’s work, like Post-it notes, and pounding on the piano. He played the piano like most people play the drums. And this song he had was full of gaps where he explained that something operatic would happen here and so on. He’d worked out the harmonies in his head.”
Da.
Ca partea vocala este cea mai complexa din toata piesa, fiind inregistrata pe un magnetofon cu 24 de canale,la sfarsit obtinandu-se 120 de layere vocale suprapuse?
Da. Nu uita ca a fost inregistrata si prelucrata in sase studiouri diferite. Din aceasta cauza este socotita cea mai scumpa piesa a acelor ani.
Ca versurile au fost facute de Freddy?
Da.
Si uita-te un pic la ele ….

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I’m just a poor boy (Poor boy)
I need no sympathy
Because I’m easy come, easy go
Little high, little low
Any way the wind blows
Doesn’t really matter to me, to me

Mama just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he’s dead
Mama, life has just begun
But now I’ve gone and thrown it all away
Mama, ooh
Didn’t mean to make you cry
If I’m not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters

Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
Body’s aching all the time
Goodbye, everybody
I’ve got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, oooooooh (Anyway the wind blows)
I don’t want to die
Sometimes wish I’d never been born at all

[Guitar Solo]

I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouch, Scaramouch, will you do the Fandango
Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightening me
(Galileo) Galileo (Galileo) Galileo, Galileo Figaro
Magnifico-o-o-o-o
I’m just a poor boy nobody loves me
He’s just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity

Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
Bismillah! No, we will not let you go
Let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go
Let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go
Let me go (Will not let you go)
Let me go (Will not let you go) (Never, never, never, never)
Let me go, o, o, o, o
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
(Oh mama mia, mama mia) Mama Mia, let me go
Beelzebub has the devil put aside for me, for me, for me!

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave me to die
Oh, baby, can’t do this to me, baby
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here

[Guitar Solo]
(Oooh yeah, Oooh yeah)

Nothing really matters
Anyone can see
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters to me

Any way the wind blows…

Asa, si….?

Vezi? Cu ce seamana?

Nu stiu. E povestea unui pusti care ajunge sa ucida. Banal, pana la urma….
Numai ca ma nedumeresc unele cuvinte….
Beelzebub, Bismillah….Galileo,Figaro, Scaramouch…. Sunt un pic stranii si nu prea isi au legatura in text, nu se leaga nicaieri….

Aha, ai inceput sa vezi.
Povestea este o prescurtare a Strainului lui Camus. De asta ti se parea oarecum familiara.
Daca reiei acum romanul, poate ca o sa auzi si muzica 🙂
Pe de alta parte, gandeste-te cum se compun versurile din neant spre o linie melodica deja data….
Imaginile si sentimentele care te-au impresionat si marcat le traduci in cuvinte.
Pe care le tot rotesti si potrivesti pana cand te apropii cel mai mult de culorile si emotia initiala.
Daca iti aduci aminte ca parintii lui Freddy proveneau dintr-o zona (Zanzibar) in care religia predominanta este zoroastrismul atunci iti va fi explicabila aparitia lui Beelzebub ( Belzebut) si Bismillah…..
Cu Galileo si Figaro este o alta poveste.
Se pare ca invocatia ” Galileo Figaro Magnifico ” a aparut la una din inregistrari.
Uite-te la piesa. Vezi ca imediat inainte de noua strofa, Brian May are un solo de chitara.
Care este exact elementul de legatura intre partea cantata in maniera balada de partea cantata in maniera Opera.
Initial acest solo nu exista.
Cele doua parti nu se lipeau.
Indiferent ce ar fi facut.
Trecera de la balada rock la opera era ca un “punct si de la capat”. Parca era o melodie noua care incepea pe album.

Intr-o pauza, cu aparenta sa calma sub care insa fierbea de furie, Brian May exersa pasaje dupa pasaje……
Nu se lega nimic.
Si in a doua pauza la fel…..
Pana cand , intr-un moment de inspiratie, Freddy, si el furios,i-a urmat linia melodica lovind in clapele pianului in stilul armoniei finale de sfarsit de concert.
Ce face furia…..!
Reusisera .
Au facut legatura intre pasaje.
Daca te uti cu atentie la videoclip o sa vezi si acum, in momentul trecerii,2:58-3:05, Freddy loveste furios clapele 🙂
Atunci, intr-un moment de gratitudine, Freddy i-a multumit, invocand:
” Galileo Figaro Magnifico “

Pai stai un pic. Ce are Brian May cu Galileo sau cu Figaro? Ca nu inteleg.

Ce stii despre Brian May?

Ei, na! A fost chitarist solo la Queen si vocalist. Ma iei cu d’astea!

Mna. A fost.
A fost si propriul creator de chitara – Red Special- pe care si-a construit-o in 1963.
Este recunoscut si respectat ca pionierul delay effect-ului.
A compus si “I Want It All’, si “We Will Rock You”, si “Who Wants To Live Forever”……
Si….
Este astrofizician. Made in Imperial College London.
Pozitia sa actuala in lumea stiintifica este: the Chancellor of Liverpool John Moores University.
Iar teza sa de doctorat se cheama ” A Survey of Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud “.
De aici vine Galileo.
Figaro este probabil o butada referitoare la parul sau.
Magnifico cred ca nu mai trebuie explicat.

Ma gandesc insa la vorbele lui. Ale lui Brian May.
Nici un membru Queen nu a discutat vreodata despre semnificatiile versurilor sau ale cantecelor.
Asa ca fiecare cantec Queen trebuie considerat un secret propriu al fiecaruia.
So be it!

Pe bune.
Greu cantec.
Decat sa stam la palavre, hai mai bine sa-ti arat varianta noastra a Bohemian Rhapsody.
Anul trecut, cu toti , la karaoke.
Da’ sa nu razi……
