Una de las series de los últimos tiempos que más elogios ha obtenido ha sido Battlestar Galáctica. Grande ha sido la admiración que ha levantado entre sus fans gracias a Adama y su séquito. Así es que este artista llamado The Great Luke Ski ha aprovechado para hacer una versión de Queen con su Bohemian Rhapsody ambientado en la serie. Este músico se ve que es algo friki porque en su álbum Target: Audience del 2008 hizo canciones en honor a «Heroes», «24», «Babylon 5» o «World of Warcraft». Estas canciones podéis escucharlas en Spotify, pero vamos con ésta en especial. Según leemos en ZonaFandom, un usuario de Youtube obtuvo permiso para crear este vídeo sobre la serie y tener como banda sonora el tema de The Great Luke Ski. El resultado lo veis después de la foto.
No hace falta decir quién es la «reina», ¿no?
Ved el vídeo, y si queréis leed las letras que os ponemos abajo, porque habla sobre la historia de la serie a ritmo de Freddie Mercury (salvando las distancias):
Letras:
Is this the real life,
Living on Caprica.
We’re protected by
The Battlestar Galactica.
To our surprise,
Look up to the skies and see…
It’s the genocide, of all humanity (Ho-lo-cost)
The Cylons nuked the twelve, all to Hell.
What T.F.? F.T.L.!
Anywhere the fleet goes,
doesn’t really matter to me… To me.[Spoken:]
Adama: Send them out to the black. Tell ‘em we ain’t coming back.Adama… is in command.
His son Lee Apollo’s rash,
And he sometimes sports a ‘stache.
Starbuck’s… bean in some hot water,
But now she’s in a latte trouble today.
Adama, Oo-oo-oo-oooo,
You’re Olmos the man we need.
If President Roslin puts you in detention,
Carry on, carry on, ‘cause you’re really hot for teacher.[Spoken:]
President Laura Roslin: Dr. Baltar! You have to write on the chalkboard,
“I will not give the Cylons access to the Colonies defense mainframe” 50,000 times!Baltar, ‘Doctor horrible’,
Gets distracted by some curves,
This Gaius getting on my nerves.
Marylin Mon-robot, with eternal life.
When she dies she downloads to a Stepford Wife.
Athena… plays Helo too… (Anywhere the fleet goes)
Sharon had to cry.
Eight balled when they said baby Boomer died.[Spoken:]
Dr. Gaius Baltar: This world is a mess, and I just need to rule it.I see a little opera house inside my head.
There were five, dressed in white, or perhaps it was Gandalf?
Galen’s gonna go nuts. Who ate all the donuts? Lee?
Lee Apollo! Lee Apollo!
Lee Apollo! Lee Apollo!
Lee Apollo ate them whole.
He’s saying “D’oh!” “D’oh!” “D’oh!” “D’oh!” “D’oh!”
Three’s just a skin-job, nobody loves her.
Three’s just a skin-job, princess warrior.
She drives a Hybrid, a prophecizor! [Spoken:] Hybrid: 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42, end of line.
Hera is, two years old, took a little stroll.
Athena! No! The Six has got a hold. Let her go!
Athena! This vision was foretold. Let her go!
Athena! No need to go loco. Let her go!
Just saying hello. Let her go!
There I let her go.
Hera Hera Hera Hera here I go! Bam! Bang! Bingo!
One! Two! Three! Four! Five! Six! Eight!
Adama Lee Adama Lee Adama Lee married a ho.
You hear that song? I’m a Cylon all along? FRAK me!
FRAK me!
FRAK MEEEEEEEEEEEEE![Rockin theme to classic “Battlestar Galacitca” plays]
Will the legend called Earth ever be where we land?
Will we all be forced to repeat “By your command”?
That tears it! Should have voted for Zarek!
Right down the Hatch! He’s like Dick Cheney with ethics.[Spoken:]
Comm. Saul Tigh: Don’t blame me, I fixed the election for Roslin.
Joe: Want another Margarita, salt-eye?Oooo-oooo-oooo, FRAK yeah! FRAK yeah!
[Spoken:]
Comm. Saul Tigh: What’d you say about my eye?! That’s Commander!
Show some respect for the XO!
Joe: More like the KO’ed.
Comm. Saul Tigh: Huh?!
Joe: Here’s your whiskey, sir!
Comm. Saul Tigh: That’s more like it.We’re all in a quorem,
Anyone can see.
Without resurrection,
Nothing FRAKKIN’ matters, to me.So say we a-all.
[Spoken:] (whispered by all) fraaaaaaak!
La canción es muy coñera sobre todo por las letras, pero queda hasta bien. Obviando el registro de voz de Freddie, es una versión digna de ser escuchada sobre todo por los fans más frikis de Queen. Podéis escuchar el resto de las canciones de The Great Luke Ski en Spotify.
