3 Chains O' Gold Why on Earth did Prince steal Queen's style with this song? I really like the song. Its one of my favorites on the CD. I just don't understand why he blatantly ripped off another (very) famous song and band. | |

Queen are probably the greatest band eva and Prince is only infulenced by the best, so Queen can take it as admiration and ackowledgment 4 them. Sam 8) Prince 2010 Good Luck for Future & Tour | |

"3 Chains o' Gold" is MUCH better than "Bohemian Rhapsody." | |

Perhaps, Moonbeam...but not as original as Bohemian Rhapsody. | |

Around the time 3 Chains came out, Bohemian Rhapsody was
a huge hit again thanks to the Wane's World movie & a video combining (funny) Wane's World footage with original Queen video footage from the 70's. I thing Prince was trying to cash in a little on the Bohemian Rhapsody resugence. Please keep in mind that this is at the same time that Prince appeared on a cd single wearing (wince) a plad flannel vest -getting in on grunge?  "Hyperactive when I was small, Hyperactive now I'm grown, Hyperactive 'till I'm dead and gone"

Are you saying 3 Chains O' Gold should not of been made because a very similar song had already been done. What's the point of that. I think 3 Chains O' Gold is great (I also think the same about Bohemian Rhapsody but that's neither here nor there) the point is I think 3 Chains O' Gold is great so what it sounds like dosn't matter.

Bohemian Rhapsody is the biggest dirge ever written, probably one of the worst songs ever.Totally overrated.It's garbage and i hate it intensely.
but not as much as '3 chains'.  |

Moon usually I agree with u, but this time u r way off da hook! Bohemian Rhapsody is one of the best things eva!! 3 chains of Gold is not even worthy of standing in the shadow of any of Queen's songs... "Time is a train, makes the future the past" | |

Kirsty Alley was a very interesting reporter on the album which contained this song.
"Why do you pretend to be amazed..." "...and twenty, I'm amazed at your beauty I saw you on..." "huh, 320 hey, don't sweat it honey..." Peace  --------

I really like "Three Chains O Gold".I think it should have been the final song on the album,instead of following it up with the chaotic "Sacrifice Of Victor"."Three Chains..." sounds like the perfect finale to the whole rock soap opera.The 'Love Symbol' album is one of Prince's most adventuresome,most inspired and most exciting projects ever.

I like the piano intro and the "rock" part of Boheminas rapsody, the resto of it sounds chessy. "Mama mia mama mia"?
brutha plee-ase! |

I can imagine Prince watching TV one night, and Wayne's World comes on the tube...then Bohemian Rhapsody starts blaring from his speakers...and he says to himself, "...what's the big f*cking deal with this song? I can do that!" So in about 20 minutes he writes, arranges, produces, and performs a song just like it...but funkier.
