Gosh, what a whole lot of crap! You’re talking two musicians. What the fuck is a legend? I never get that with Fred. I once had a nice chat with the lady from the Queen Fanclub about that, because another fan had just called him a legend. Surprise: She denied it. She knew Freddie back in the day. All I know or will say is: some fans put him on a podest so high, they can‘t see his arse anymore. For people, who knew the man, the podest was there, but not high. They could and still can see the bad sides. I know you’re just fans. I am as well. But all that praise of Fred and bashing of Adam again became ridiculously silly. Both is exaggerated. And I know, this is a Queen board. |

Once again, posts right after each other, which of course links to AL pics with a puppet of all things and in a thread about how AL feels about Freddie's legacy. You take any excuse to link to the pics for whatever reason wherever you feel like it. Don't even bother to post that the pics are for me. I know what he looked like and what he did on Glee. Come to think about, you are one of the entitled fans I had in mind with my posts here. You can't even bear to have a discussion about how AL feels about Freddie, you must always do your damnest to try to turn everything right back to AL. And you think you are one of the best.

You should know better than to say somethng like that to anyone, even me, especially considering you have been through your own heartache and hard times. Found your tweet by the way about what you tweeted to AL about his Glee name. Apparently you tweeted this "Elliott Gilbert sounds too nerdy for YOU darlin. I hope Ryan Murphy isn't out to wreck your future career. I'm worried!" Those are your words that you tweeted to AL. See, you aren't always so positive, no matter how much you like to claim you are. You are a damn liar is what you are, but oh no you can't admit that AL did something you don't like in front of Queen and AL fans on QZ can you? Yep, you are one of the best *sarcasm*. Stop bullshitting. FFS, go to an AL site where you can swoon over pics of AL with a puppet, and compare leg length since that crap is so important for you to post about on a Queen board.

Just too bad he isn’t still here.Yes, that's your tweet. Want me to screen cap and post it here? After all you said nothing on the internet is private once posted online...so nope no stalking. Easy to find since you were so horrified by the name.Funny how you are denying it and once again you say I'm stalking. Freddie will always be the best, especially compared with AL. Everything from talent, song writing to leg length.;-) I think you are the sick one. You wanted to share a pic of AL with a very young baby from a private Instagram account,, you actually linked to that with no issue at all. But you say I'm stalking and denying that the tweet is yours. I don't know why you lie, you can admit to your own tweet or own feelings about AL's name on a TV show. I'd have more respect for you if you admted there was something about AL that you didn't like. You can't admit to it, let alone own it.Might be worried about your Glambert reputation or something. But come on do call me a stalker again, when you tweet the POTUS to STFU time and time again. Not me who is the sick one here. I came across a tweet and posted about it in my posts here. You have linked to pics of AL's mother when she was getting married, and on a Queen board no less. You have linked to a pic of Lambert with a baby from a private account. I think that's sick. Also the fact you want to be AL's maid, that he is like a second son to you...you have no issues with any of that at all... The irony and hypocrisy from you once again. Too bad Freddie is not here? Is that how you feel that it's "too bad". Yep, you don't understand the legacy of the man, even while your guy is up there singing his songs and making money off said legacy. Too bad AL will likely never get the crowds in the way Queens music has. Too bad AL is currently without a record company. Too bad AL has a fan like you because that's unsettling and that's too bad. When someone died a painful, horrible death the way Freddie ( or anyone else ) died, that's not too bad...that's tragic and heartbreaking. Too bad he isn't here, you say about Freddie all the while promoting your AL on Queen boards in any way you see fit, jumping on any comment for you to link to pics of AL. You have no shame or even compassion. You think yourself as one of the best when your own posts prove otherwise. You can't understand anything or anyone other than AL, even then you live with your head up his ass. Now, you seem to want to point score by bringng my ill parents into this, when you have no idea what, when and why I do what I do for them. It shows you can't stop at nothing from trying to throw any crap you can think of to make yourself look better. Say whatever the hell you want to about me, but keep my ill parents out of this. I even said a few days ago that I thought you were brave for raising your own family after your own hard times...now you want to sink as low as to bring my parents into this...you have managed to cross many lines many times with me, this is the worst you have thrown at me. |

And you can't even keep your lies straight about why you were banned. Why would I lie about your tweet about AL's name on Glee? You say you don't hate Freddie, but you sure as hell do not respect the guy. You said a while ago he must have had sex with every gay man on the planet. You were outaged OMG that was awful were your words when you saw a pic or clip of Freddie was on Superman's shoulders during a part of a concert. You often say how little clothes he wore onstage. You always try to make AL look better than even Freddie. All the while promoting, spamming about anything you can think of regarding AL... seriously, pics of AL with a puppet?! Because?? You are so defensive over a tweet you claim that you didn't make. Like you say, nothing is private on the internet, but you can't even admit to what you tweeted. I may be many things, a liar isn't one of them. No, you are the disgusting one here by bringing my parents in this, knowing full well one is terminally ill and the other one is very sick also. You knew that, and you want to go there throwing it back in my face about it. How fucking dare you. You are the most entitled, bratty, greedy, Glambert I've ever come across. Leave Holly out of this actually, because you know less about that poster less than you 'know' about me. Once again, you go for someone who dares to show a bit of kindness my way. Holly has very valid POVs, not that you will ever notice it. I'm pretty damn sure you will get your gang to defend you again. I've seen your true colors when you can't get your own way. You are so fucked up you continue to lie and dig deeper holes for yourself. And according to you, I'm the sick one. I'd take a long look at your obsession about AL even before trying to throw shit at me and anyone else. Sweetcaroline/CNB forever the victim no matter what she does *sarcasm*. Keep telling yourself that, too bad for you, some of us know differently. Oh, you can't help but say AL is the one who had alot of nerve to bring joy to people. Nothing about what Brian and Roger having a part in any of that except as the remaining members? AL would not be anywhere close to what he is without Queen these last few years. I bet it burns that Freddie's and Queen's legacy is living on, these days due to the biopic. I hIaven'td AL...it's you who time and time again cannot accept nothing but praise for AL. It's you who can't stop herself or even take in another POV. It's you who really is no better than a spam bot and can't even think for yourself. It's you who cried wolf oh so often about so much. But to top it off, you even want to bring my into whatever vendetta you think you have about me. You have no decency. |

You threw their illnesses back in my face, and said they were healthier than me. That's way worse than my posting what you tweeted to AL about a character's name on a TV show. Once again, you have shown your true colors for absolutely no reason you have decided to throw crap at me and my parents. That you had no right to do. You are so quick to label people as hateful, even a poster you hardly even know, while being more than hateful in what you posted regarding me and my parents. I think I know who the hateful one is here. It's not me or Holly. |

Like you, Holly is not a positive person. The message is love and take care of and spend time with your loved ones while you can, instead of spreading hate and negativity on a forum with people you don’t know or agree with. |

You don't even know Holly. You are going off on posts here, all the while you've proved you aren't so positive yourself. I assure I am loving and taking care and spending time with my loved ones. You have no idea what I do other than here .You just want me to shut up and I bet that's why you are saying all this about my parents and me, I don't need or want your "message", it's not coming from a place of care, compassion, or support, not even close. You made it clear how I should be acting for God's sake when you have no idea how I actually act aay from Queen boards. What were you doing when this sub forum was pretty much quiet? Posting posts right after each other like a spam bot anything you could find regarding AL. Go on, have a look it's still there after all. You want to go on your way, with no other POVs other than yours. For some reason, maybe because you think you're one one of the best ( LOL ) you have taken it on yourself to be the spokesperson and PR machine for AL and Glamberts on Queen boards. And I will tell you now, you have done a shitty job of it. You have managed to turn more people away from wanting to support AL than you will ever realise. That's down to you, and not even the guy himself. So I will tell you something you have told me many times. STFU, go away, stay away... because you have no idea about me or what I do outside of Queen boards. I know, and others here know, despite you calling me hateful, whatever you can come up calling me, your comparing me to Trump, i know that I'm a good person and I'm a good daughter. You are a nasty bitch for implying otherwise and throwing my parents illnesses back in my face the way you are. How would you have felt if I threw your husband's death back in your face days ago when we were posting about it? I didn't throw any crap at you whatsoever, in fact I said you were very brave to do what you did, and I would hug you if I could. But you ignored that and the bombshell last night and today to say what you did. What gave you the right to do that? Yep, your true colors and how ugly you can be has been shown once again.. Just because you are upset I posted your direct tweet to AL about his name on a TV show. Like you said while defending yourself, nothing on the internet is private, or does that just go for you and what you do? |

What is wrong with an appearance on Strictly Come Dancing? One minute you are bitching about Adam ignoring his solo career by touring with QAL and the next minute you are dissing him for appearing at a non-QAL event. All of that negativity is unhealthy. It is better to be joyful and happy. Always look on the bright side of life is a better philosophy! |

Fact is, though, even I can tell it's getting Queen new fans which I think is a good thing. It's getting more fans than Q+AL, the music is hugely popular these days. What must you always have a pop at things I haven't gone to? Even after I explained to you many times why I couldn't go. |

I am not sure I understand exactly how Adam is jumping on Queen's popularity as he has sung with them for 6 years, been heard by several million people at the concerts and who knows how many on live streams and youtube. The number of shows they have done together must be close to 200 at this point. He is part of Queen's history which is comprised of three periods, the Queen period, the QPR and the QAL. Whether you agree with that or not, that is a fact. As long as Brian and Roger perform as Queen plus, it is a permanent part of Queen's history. I also never understand why playing concerts all over the world does not promote Queen's music. That is simply ridiculous as Queen has gained tons of new fans over the last 6 years due to Adam's singing. You are fooling yourself, if you can't see that. Adam has been very lucky to sing with Brian and Roger and have this amazing time with them, but Queen would not be touring to such great success without him. Brian and Roger do not want to tour without him. They all have fun and are able to do what they do best at an amazingly high level. I do not see why that is such a hard pill for some of you people to swallow. You must think somehow Adam is taking something away from Freddie which is just a silly idea. Psychologically speaking, I think some of you are worried that Adam is too good at what he does, otherwise it wouldn't bother you so much. It doesn't matter what is said here on the boards, you always need to denigrate everything the man does. Some of you people are Freddie fans and some people are Adam fans and there is nothing wrong with that. It would be so nice if Adam wasn't always crapped on which some of you love to do. And no, Icy, I am not trying to big him up, but some of you just won't ever give him a break and blaming it on his fans is stupid. Every celebrity has dumb fans who are over the top but that shouldn't reflect on the artist. If a silly fans makes you dislike someone, that doesn't say much for you. Can't we give it a break? The movie is doing wonders for Queen and so is Adam when he tours as QAL. He is a really nice man with a great vocal ability and it is just mind boggling some of the things that are said here about him. |

He is a really nice man with a great vocal ability and it is just mind boggling some of the things that are said here about him.Kind of my point. He's been singing with Brian and Roger for this long, I'd think he'd want to choose another artists/pick a different musical to sing a cover of. Hell, I'd be interested if he had some music of his own to sing or to promote on the show. I'm sure AL is a nice guy, at least most of time. He's made gaffs in how he put some things across, like the fur issue, and I think he was thoughtless about that. He can really put his foot in it sometimes but who doesn't. I do notice what he says, and I'm right there with him with his recent tweets when he seemed to be pissed off, I don't blame him for that, and it's actually something I very much agree with him about. I'm happy the biopic is doing well, in all honesty I wasn't expecting it to be as big as it is. It's pretty amazing right now. Queen is more popular now than they have been for years, although the music has never disappeared from the public eye. No one is under any obligation to like AL, solo, singing with Brian and Roger or whatever he does. I will never understand why some of his fans think everyone must love and fawn over everything AL does. I'm not the kind of person to love everything about a celebrity...I don't even do that for Freddie. |

I'm severely embarrassed with him singing Queen songs. I'll never see them live, because I'd be so embarrassed, and I wouldn't enjoy it. I'm serious... it's embarrassing. It's something for teenyboppers to go see, or old women, but not adult men... I'd be so embarrassed and disgusted watching that crap. I'd feel a similar sense of embarrassment if I went to go to a Britney Spears concert. Adam doesn't have a rock & roll voice... he has an embarrassing voice. It's really really like listening to karaoke, because I've heard Freddie, and Freddie has a loud, powerful, rock voice. I'm also very embarrassed by Adam's dance moves. He stands in place or walks slowly across the stage, he thrusts his pelvis in the most amateur way, the first thing you think of when you see it, "he can't dance." His voice is lightweight and that's great for bubblegum pop, but not loud, guitar driven hard rock. If I brought one of my friends to a Queen and Lambert concert, I'd never hear the end of it. He's so terrible and embarrassing. |

As to his voice being lightweight it's not but it is very different to Freddie's in terms of voice type, Adam is a light tenor Freddie was a baritenor so Freddie's voice had more weight and had a chestier sound. I get where you're coming from though, I have things that make me cringe and I know it's me being weird but it doesn't change the fact, I even have to turn things off on TV, even if I'm watching on my own because it's cringey or awkward so I'm not trying to change your mind at all. |

He does sing some of them in a fairly operatic style but then some of Queen's music is operetta and yeah his thing is holding long high notes but it always gets a good audience reaction which is probably why he does it and it is kind of what he got known for originally. But like you say, that's not your thing so yeah he's not the singer for you. |

Yeah, what’s with the question, SweetCaroline? |
MisterCosmicc 19.11.2018 16:25 |
Still waiting for the answer on that! |

Okay, you are so critical of the guy who has been successfully performing the Queen music live all over the world since 2012, but you have no criticism for the actor playing Freddie on the movie screen without singing a single note? Maybe he does the AY-O segment but I haven’t heard that for sure. Rami does a good job of portraying Freddie, but, like Adam he, too, is not Freddie. No one is! |

I haven't watched the film, that's a statement itself. However, if I do watch the film, it's a movie! A portrayal. With Freddie Mercury and Marc Martel's vocals... not Rami Malek's. |

Rami isn't riding on Queens and Freddie's coattails the way AL has been doing for years. Once again, you want to compare,an actor to a singer this time, and yes we al know which one you think is better. Acting n a biopic is altogether different than singing Queen songs. |

Yes, singing all over the world LIVE in front of thousands of people is different than reading lines on a sound stage for a couple of months. |

Rami is doing a one time thing, AL isn't. Acting is different from acting,as simple as that. Of course, you are bitter because Rami is the one getting attention these days, and AL isn't. Oh well, AL has a Strictly appearance coming up...singing a Queen song, surprise, surprise. Nothing really groundbreaking, while the biopic, Rami and Queen's music is doing extremlely well. I know that burns for you. Too bad. |
SweetCaroline 20.11.2018 12:03 |
I’m not bitter about Rami. I’m not negative like you. I like him and am going to see the movie again today in a theater with a better sound system. The point is the actors in the movie did not perform in front of a live audience of thousands of people like the members of QAL have done all over the world. They performed on a sound stage for a couple of months until the production was finished. No need to act and perform and sing over and over in all kinds of situations, weather, etc. Film can be edited and there are multiple takes until they get it right, but as Brian likes to say, what THEY do is “live and dangerous.” |
SweetCaroline 20.11.2018 12:14 |
By the way I believe Brian has corrected the record that Marc was used for some of the vocals. He says that all of the singing in the movie is Fteddie. |
AngelR 20.11.2018 14:07 |
Marc Martel is credited as the additional vocals in the movie. His involvement's been grossly overhyped on social media. His fans are worse than Glamberts :-) Brian, in his answer to a Martel fan on Instagram confirmed that the Life Aid set vocals were all Freddie's no Martel at all. |

Need I remind you about what you have said about Sam Smith and Adele through the years? Or anyone else who isn't Lambert? You can't help but to big up Q+AL and especially AL. Fact is, you have been doing that for years on Queen boards. You want AL to be the one to be the one to get all the glory for Queen. You can't stand that the biopic is very popular and doing wonders for Queen. Hate to break it to you, AL has nothing to do with it, so no wonder why you must big him up, I suppose. You really should at least get your facts straight before you spout off.You make it so obvious you don't know what you are talking about. Even I knew that about Freddie's vocals in the film. |

Okay, Donald Trump, we know YOU know everything! |

I know a heck about Queen that you ever could or ever would, that's for sure. You can't even be bothered to look things up about Queen. Let's see, Track 13, and when Freddie and John last toured with Queen you obviously didn't know, and you couldn't take a minute to look it up. |
snifflese 21.11.2018 01:37 |
There are so many things going on in people's lives that looking up about stuff about Track 13 and who toured when, is just not on top of the average fan's list, Icy. You just don't seem to understand that most people are not die hard fans like you and honestly, don't care. I don't see why in the world that would ever be important. You can enjoy Queen's music without knowing the history and you either like or don't QAL. It is as simple as that. I would never bother looking up stuff like that as it doesn't make me enjoy the music any better. And that is why it is foolish for any regular fan to post anything about Freddie or Queen on this thread. It just gets thrown back in their face. I said that the other day and here is an example of it. Most people are too busy for the trivia! I love Queen's music and I love QAL and that is all I need to know. I am a happy camper unlike some of the complainers on here. They certainly don't sound like happy campers! Sometimes knowing too much ruins things for people. |
SweetCaroline 21.11.2018 01:39 |
And you didn’t know about them until Freddie died. I watched Live Aid as it was happening on TV in 1985 and remember seeing the Bo Rhap video on MTV. You are NOT a Queen expert. |
SweetCaroline 21.11.2018 01:47 |
snifflese, we just posted at the same time. I just went to see the Bo Rhap movie again. For anyone who has not seen it yet, make sure you see it in a theater with a huge screen and surround sound. Second time around was better because of venue! |

I get that not everyone is a big Queen fan. What gets to me, is the fact sweetcaroline does her thing of promoting AL on a Queen board, and not knowing very much about Queen at all. It's ironic I think. At times we have every move covered by sweetcaroline to post about AL, and it's obvious she knows very little about Queen. |

I watched Live Aid too back in the day. I had my parents take my piggy bank money to donate to Ethiopia. I've never claimed to be a Queen expert. I do know more than you do about the band. What are you an expert about? Spamming. Cryng wolf? |

I've read first hand that Bohemian Rhapsody was hardly played on MTV back in the 80's... that Queen's modern videos of the time were being played. |
