The song sounds disjointed because it jumps from ballad to opera to hard rock—and just as quickly it returns to a ballad again—yet it became an instant hit when it topped various charts worldwide including the UK Singles Chart for nine weeks straight. Despite being a hit around the world, the piece grew in popularity after being included in various films and TV shows including Wayne's World (1992). The song received numerous accolades such as being selected as one of Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. (The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica, 2024)
