Perhaps the most iconic sing-along moment in movie history, “Wayne’s World” reinvigorated fans of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody.” Who hasn’t headbanged along to the tune in their car? The scene from Penelope Spheeris’s 1992 film based on two “Saturday Night Live” characters has been the source of rumors and chatter pretty much since it premiered. Was it always supposed to be that song? What about the Guns n’ Roses rumor? Did Freddie Mercury even LIKE the addition? Turns out, the answers are all pretty easily explained.
