...my answer isn't in your poll choices. 
I liked the song pretty well when I first heard it, because the musicians are talented and it struck me as something very different from most of the music I listen to. I liked how it sounded.
Later I liked it because I knew it and everybody else also knew it, so it was like quoting Monty Python: not really special or exciting on its own anymore because you know it too well, just awesome because of the memory of awesome you associate with it.
And then one day, after roughly a decade of my life with this song being everywhere, it finally happened: I got tired of Bohemian Rhapsody. This is the first song and only I have every disliked from overexposure, so safe to say, it takes a lot to make me get tired of a song.
My answer to your poll: It is a good song. It has good music. But I am sick of it.
NOW my favourite Queen song is '39, which has awesome lyrics, but is severely underappreciated.
