I think there are still undiscovered tribes in the Amazon that know the words to Bohemian Rhapsody :lol:

Was it design or accidental that B Rhapsody lasts 5:55?

A classic for a different reason, the first use of a synthesiser to get into the charts, and everybody who has heard it will remember the intro: :-D

There can't be many people (apart from Steve) who wouldn't get this within the first 2 seconds if it were on a Heardle :-D

Probably would take a while.
I had a run down to Teesside yesterday and had the music playing from a dongle that lives in the car.
All the tracks are familiar, I put them there myself, but a track can play for several minutes before I can name it or the artists.

One that I was listening to



It was almost finished before I could name it, and I listen to it often.
A few years ago I would have pegged it in the first few notes :(

A perfect example of a classic that everyone should know.

Another one that should be easily recognised within the first few seconds.

I have to ration my listening of that - familiarity breeding contempt etc, etc. 'Tis a glorious composition.

Another track with almost a quarter of a billion views and definitely a classic from our maestro of the North East: :-D

Can't stand rap but make an exception for this. Could be that Miss Pfeiffer has something to do with it.
