I distinctly remember, as a little kid, hearing "Bohemian Rhapsody" and thinking that whoever sung it must have been magic. How the heck could anyone sing like that, for that long, and remember all the words?! Well, I can safely say, at 24, I still feel the same damn way. As Entertainment Weekly relays, in honor of "Bohemian Rhapsody’s" 40th anniversary of slaying the human race, The English National Ballet, Trinity Boys Choir, and The Royal Academy of Music performed their own unique tributes. Let me just tell you, they are also positively magical.

Whether or not it’s through dance, string instruments, or young kids with impeccable talent, these tributes succeeded in capturing the impassioned, theatrical essence of the epic song. I should know, I had, ahem, “shivers down my spine” watching each and every one of them. That’s not just a line, either. The goosebumps were very real, people. But, I suppose I should have expected nothing less from meticulously executed tributes to a song that has proven its timelessness for four whole decades. Really, more than anything, these tributes show the versatility of the song and how it resonates in a multitude of ways.

You can check out the stunning "Bohemian Rhapsody" tributes below (if you like happiness and all that).
