Rules of Music Mondays: Every Monday share a few songs you’ve been enjoying lately.  It doesn’t have to be a specific genre, new, or one of your favorites – just something you’d like to share with others.  If possible, share a music or lyric video of the song and your thoughts on the song(s), artist(s), and/or music video(s).

Today I bring you the ever iconic Queen. I grew up listening to Queen on my dad’s record player. Certainly as a child I didn’t have as much appreciation for music as I do now but those early days of my father’s scratchy records have stuck with me. Queen’s music is something I turn to time and again as a source of comfort and quality entertainment.

For those of you that don’t know, there is a movie coming out called Bohemian Rhapsody staring Rami Malek as Freddy Mercury. US release November 2 2018 and UK release October 24 2018. If you haven’t watched the trailers they can be found on YouTube.
