# Classic Rock Gaming Mashups Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody Meets Zelda in This Incredibly Epic Mashup By Andrew Sztein | Published 2013-02-05 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/epic-mashup References: [geekologie](http://www.geekologie.com/2013/02/zelda-wind-wakerbohemian-rhapsody-mashup.php) & [youtube](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWH6pqZ0xCo) Link becomes Freddie Mercury in this epic mashup of the classic Queen track Bohemian Rhapsody and footage from the 2003 [GameCube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/metroid-prime-remastered-game) adventure The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Using perfectly timed edits and images from the game that suit the lyrics and tone of the Queen power ballad, this video is something to behold for Queen and Zelda fans alike. If you're both, then I imagine you'll have this epic mashup on repeat. The mashup also adds a nice little touch by shifting between the live and recorded versions of the song. The video was put together by Geekologie reader who is only identified as Ben. Ben spent 18 hours playing the game and gathering footage and then spent another 30 hours editing and putting together the video, meaning he spent a literal two days of his life putting this epic mashup together. Honestly, I think it was time well spent, especially if "this is just fantasy." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.1/10 - Popularity: 35% | Activity: 81% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Internet](https://www.trendhunter.com/internet) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Gaming Music Mashups:** Opportunity for creating epic mashups between popular songs and video game footage. - **Cross-cultural Entertainment:** Potential to combine elements from different cultures and entertainment mediums to create unique and engaging content. - **Nostalgic Remixes:** Demand for remixing classic songs and nostalgic elements to create new and innovative content. ### Where This Applies - **Music and Gaming:** Opportunity for collaboration between the music and gaming industries to create cross-promotional content. - **Video Production and Editing:** Growing demand for skilled video editors and producers to create high-quality mashup content. - **Fan Communities:** Engagement and monetization opportunities within fan communities for niche mashup content. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Reissued Golden Vinyls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-night-at-the-opera.md) - [Commemorative Music Coins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/music-coins.md) - [Album-Inspired Video Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cross-country-legacy.md) - [Chibi-Style Adventure Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/echoes-of-wisdom.md) - [Gamer Music Libraries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nintendo-music.md) - [QSR Collaborative Game Ventures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/recipe-run.md) - [Music Mashups Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mashapp-music.md) - [Video Game-Inspired Hovercrafts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mario-kart-hovercraft.md) - [Drag Culture Video Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drag-her-video-game.md)
