He's not exactly like Freddie, but that's not the point. He's a very very very good singer, and I think Brian and Roger made a mistake by not selecting a very similiar Singer like Bruno as their lead man.
Paul Rogers is too different, a completely different style to the Queen sound.
This singer here, Salvo Bruno would've been an EXCELLENT CHOICE. link
I'd definitely buy a record to hear Salvo Bruno sing old and new Queen compositions.
Stupid Brian + Roger. Keep the Queen sound, find a very similar Singer like Bruno, and keep writing great Queen songs. And you'd have a very smooth transition to the Post Freddie Mercury chapter of the Band.
Instead, you've chosen a completely wrong style Singer like Paul Rogers who is cheesy and lame, and totally changed the style of the Band. WRONG MOVE.
Brian and Roger went from "gods of R&R" to pathetic.
Unlike Freddie Mercury, you can tell that Salvo Bruno is a true Tenor. He has no problems singing A#4 or higher. He definitely sings Barcelona with more power than Freddie Mercury could, live or in studio.
Yeah, they've should done that! in fact they should be playing with this Bruno (your lover, maybe?) and calling themselves "Dios salve a la reina" or "Queen for a day" or "Miracle" or (why not!) "Kween" (this name is very appropiate for japan, i think).
Glad to see someone like you here, who actually will show the rest of the people that they are wrong, they really don't like queen+pr. You will enlight them, yeah!
(btw: as*h*le)
of course I can. And i like Paul rodgers. But your comments are just crap. I accept you don't like queen+pr, but i'm tired of people like you saying this is a mistake, is shit, etc etc... if you don't like, you don't need to moan every 5 minutes saying how much they are messing something.
