YouTuber Anthony Vincent has become famous for his video series where he takes famous songs and rearranges them as imitations of different styles, genres and artists.

He has some brilliant stuff on his YouTube channel — check out his version of Mr. Brightside by The Killers to get an idea — but nothing compares to his most ambitious project yet: a cover of Queen’s epic Bohemian Rhapsody in 42 styles.

He covers the song through the lenses of artists as diverse as Johnny Cash, Daft Punk, Janis Joplin, System Of A Down, Kendrick Lamar, Michael Jackson and Death.
