The incredible performance was created to honor a milestone anniversary of the Queen’s song first release.
An incredible flash mob performance of Queen’s iconic track ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ has gone viral in just 24 hours.
In a video uploaded to YouTube yesterday, a group of 30 musicians take over a busy street in Paris full of locals and tourists.
“The full song like you never dreamt of seeing or hearing it,” pianist Julien Cohen wrote in the caption.
The flash mob began with three women beautifully singing the opening lines from a first-floor window above a café.
As the crowd noticed and began to look up, Cohen joined in on the keys, before lead singer Mickey Castillo arrived on a carriage.
More and more performers continued to arrive from different locations around the street – including a drummer who was somehow concealed using just a draped blanket.
The best entrance has to be from 11-year-old guitar prodigy Olly Pearson, who pulled off an impressive rendition of Brian May’s guitar solo.
At one point he even starts shredding the guitar from behind his head like a little legend.
The performance has quickly gained traction online, with the video racking up a whopping 1.5 million views in just one day.
A great way to celebrate in the lead up to the track turning 50 years old on October 31st.
Commenters are seriously impressed with the talent and ability to keep wowing the crowd.
“It is said that Freddie once said ‘Do what you want with my music, just don’t make it boring’. This definitely nailed it,” one person wrote.
“By far the BEST video of the year,” said another. “You gave me chills and tears as if I were there…and my god, how would have I loved to be there…”
A third added: “This deserves infinity views. 10/10 standing ovation.”
Others pointed out the sheer star power young Olly Pearson has – and they’re not wrong.
He has already made a name for himself after receiving a golden buzzer during his ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ audition earlier this year.
In his first performance he absolutely shredded some AC/DC, Van Halen and, of course, Queen.
He went on to make BGT history, receiving a second golden buzzer, meaning he bypassed straight through to the semi-finals.
Tearing up, he told the judges, “that was the coolest thing in my life.”
He’s now adding some pretty incredible performances to his belt, including this latest flash mob.
Freddie would be proud.
