Doesn't sound like Freddie, it sounds like someone doing a comedy of the song. And he forgot the lyrics that most people know. His music is more poppy than anything Queen have done. |

You can't deny he can reach the high notes but I honestly don't think he has the range, maturity and sheer power to take on a lot of the material in Queen's back catalogue. What's more, to have him bounching around fronting a band of guys pushing 60 would, in my opinion, look a little out of place. Paul, whilst not a top favourite of mine, isn't attempting an impersonation. Sure, he does tend to belt out Queen's rockier songs in a rather predictable way (the warble) but I do like the fact that they've teamed up with one of their peers. Importantly,he is a similar age (despite the nip/tuck) Something always jars when I see Brian and Roger with the likes of 5ive, the youthful cast of WWRY, the hopefuls on American Idol etc At least in performing with one of their own generation, they can maintain a certain dignity. |

i honestly dont know how people relate Freddie to Mika...they sound nothing alike, and the songs they sing are completely different. The only Queen material that i think is even close to Mika is Brighton Rock. |

Okay, I saw Hall and Oates live, twice. Daryl Hall most certainly had troubles with his voice...he sounded terrible, both times.
I saw Journey once...Steve Perry sounded wonderful, yet, he, like Freddie, dropped some of the high notes, and, his voice fell apart on a couple of occasions. Also, like Freddie, Journey toured a great deal. I also saw Kenny Loggins, who sounded terrible live. You could hardly hear him, and, he did not hit many of his high notes, which, by the way, I DID hit, singing along, and, I am NOT a singer. I cannot say the same for myself singing along with QUEEN songs.
My point is that the claim that none of these singers had the live vocal trouble that Freddie did may not be accurate.

He and the band put on a Show, got the crowd involved, used humour and every ounce of their energy to give the people value for money. Unluckily for the band, videos and bootlegs are available for some to nitpick at every little error but considering Queen performed live around 650 times over the years, I'd estimate that most fans came away satisfied and extremely fortunate to have seen them play live. |

I grew up in the seventies...I went to alot of concerts, including Zep and The Who. Guess what? Robert Plant didn't do his high notes live, either. He dropped them all. In fact, I can recall being quite indignant that Zep sounded so different, live, than on the album. Stairway To Heaven sounded, almost, like a different song.
And The Who? Roger Daltrey did not srike me as being a particularly great singer, frankly. He mostly screamed, and, because of this, was quite hoarse.
Both of these are good bands. The Greatest. The truth is that most singers can not replicate the vocals that they put down in the studio, for obvious reasons. I never saw Queen, live. I have only listened to what youtube has to offer, and, the few concerts I have on CD. My observation is that Freddie sounded no more differently, live, than did his counterparts, from their studio work. In fact, in my opinion, Freddie sounded a great deal more melodious, stronger, and, clearer, than most singers I have heard, live.saltnvinegar wrote:Dusta wrote: Okay, I saw Hall and Oates live, twice.

I get that he's not everyone's cup of tea. But it seems to me like you only hate him because OTHER PEOPLE compare him to Freddie. The sad thing about that is that he himself wishes people would stop making the comparison, and says that he's not trying to come from the same place. I know you love Freddie (as do the rest of us), but if you keep judging everything on him and his abilities, you'll wind up hating everything.Dan Corson XII: The Fattest Crack Head wrote:im just saying how it is, if he were good i would say it. He is better than the crap on mtv BUT what pisses me off is that they compare him to Freddie and he doest say "oh dont be silly, dont compare me to freddie, im not in the same league" the fact that he even thinks he is on freddies level pisses me off, he doesnt have a voice even CLOSE to freddie and doesnt have the talent either. Freddie is the best musician and singer of all time and a nobody with a bad falsetto is the new freddie?..... If they didnt make the freddie comparisions and if he would himself say that its a blasphemy to even compare the two i wouldnt be pissed at himTreasure Moment wrote: mika is absolute talentless crap, its a blasphemy when people compare that talentless garbage to freddieWhy are you like that all the time? |
