Queen is wrapping their five-part Queen the Greatest YouTube series with the release of a special “Bohemian Rhapsody” video.
To mark the 50th anniversary of the song’s nine-week run on top of the U.K. singles chart, Queen has released “The ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ 360 Experience,” a video that features moving images of the band performing the song live, the track’s original promotional video, on-screen lyrics and more.
In order to get the full 360-degree experience, folks on a laptop or desktop computer simply need to hold and drag their mouse to move through all the visuals in the clip, while those on a smartphone can turn their screen sideways and move the phone for the different clips. VR viewers can also get the 360-degree experience by putting their phone into their viewer to immerse themselves in the video.
As a press release notes, the new video “invites viewers to open their eyes, look up to the skies and see.”
“Bohemian Rhapsody,” from Queen’s #1 album A Night at the Opera, was the band’s first #1 single. The six-minute operatic tune, written by Freddie Mercury, was rereleased in 1991 following Mercury’s death.
