65,000 Fans Break Into a Singalong of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” at a Green Day Concert in London’s Hyde Park

in Music | July 7th, 2017 5 Comments

Last week, Green Day played a mas­sive con­cert in Lon­don’s Hyde Park. But arguably the cli­max hap­pened before the band even took the stage. Pri­or to the show, the sta­di­um piped Queen’s “Bohemi­an Rhap­sody” through the speak­ers, at which point a mas­sive sin­ga­long got under­way. As one YouTu­ber put it, “Only Queen can rock a sta­di­um with­out even being there,” a tes­ta­ment to their endur­ing influ­ence. Enjoy the show.
