Video of the Week: The Muppets Bohemian Rhapsody Dan Koelsch, November 28, 2009April 28, 2010 Ok, so we don’t really have a VOTW feature, but this music video is a few days old and is so great, I had to post it. Muppets Studio (part of Walt Disney) has posted a video on YouTube of the classic Muppet characters singing Queen’s hit Bohemian Rhapsody. I love the Muppets, and this utilizes them all pretty nicely and evenly.

They also have a link to Queen’s latest greatest hits album, Absolute Greatest, so that’s another possibility. Either way, it’s effective.
