Decades later, many famous artists have lent their vocals to the tune which is a popular choice for covers and auditions. But a bluegrass version of Bohemian Rhapsody is certainly something that’s unique.
"Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see I’m just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Because I’m easy come, easy go
A little high, little low
Anyway the wind blows, doesn’t really matter to me"

For ten seasons, The Petersens have performed at the Little Opry Theatre in the Branson IMAX Entertainment Complex. Today, they're taking on ‘Bohemian Rhapsody' and giving it an incredible bluegrass makeover.
I've heard a lot of covers of this classic tune but I've definitely never heard a bluegrass rendition. And this isn't an easy song to cover. The Petersens said, "This is without a doubt the hardest song we have ever learned!!!"
