Great find, Joe! Not sure about the four hours part, though. The article says the video was recorded in just four hours on 10 November 1975. But the song, which was released October 31 took three weeks to record. So that might be confusing. What if I set up the most expensive tweet and this for Facebook?
Music executives and even other musicians told Queen that "Bohemian Rhapsody," at 5 minutes, 55 seconds long, would never be a hit. But the band believed in Freddy Mercury's uniquely operatic song, and released it on this day 40 years ago. The single has sold more than 6.7 million copies.

But it is possible fun twitter and all its hangers-on are all hungover in bed with their Hillary Clinton email costumes still on.

I can kick it off on Twitter. I know it by heart ;)
I'm not certain which is the better audience. You probably have the
best feel for which is more inclined?

Cool. So I'll schedule this for Twitter and Facebook?
Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody", at the time the most expensive single
ever made, turns 40 today. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohemian_Rhapsody
I once watched people tweet all the lyrics back and forth on Twitter.
It was really impressive. I might try to get that started on the Facebook thread. Or Twitter?

I prefer the expense one. People like to talk about money.

Honestly i'm happy with the 4 hour fact as well, i think the subject
as video is relatively clear but don't mind either way :).
Re: your FB post: LGTM, bit of a concern it's too long but I trust
you on that.
