The only duet which I find even stranger was Elton John and Eminem (not in this concert). "Bohemian Rhapsody" is the most popular Queen song. It is from their album "A Night at the Opera" (1975).

Answer: Freddie Mercury

This version of the song was never officially released, and this is not the only unreleased collaboration of Mercury and Jackson. They recorded also "There Must Be More To Life Than This" which is a Freddie Mercury solo song from his album "Mr. Bad Guy".
