WOOOOAH...how can you say that! Adam Lambert (Glambert or Adam) is good. He is an incredible vocalist with an incredible stage presence. Adam has written massive songs, "Whataya Want From Me" or "Better Than I Know Myself". These are good songs. OK, Adam doesn't play the piano, or the guitar. But Mick Jagger doesn't either!!!!! You mean to tell me that Mick Jagger isn't a good musician!!!!! This is always the case - when stars are massive they never get the respect, only in later years. I think that when the history books are written, Queen working with Adam won't have impacted Adam's credibility and vice versa.

There is nothing Brian, Roger, John, Wyclef Jean, Adam Lambert, Alvin and the Chipmunks or Chuck Norris can do to undo the fact that Queen put out phenomenal albums in the 70s and sold hundreds of millions of them with songs that will be loved centuries from now. Even Gary Glitter having diddled little kids and rotting in jail for it does not change the fact that Rock and Roll Part 2 exists and kicks ass.

Adam has more of a rock background than you are aware of -- IMO he is NOT ordinary and is more than qualified to sing with the Queen guys -- no vibrato, that's a lie. FYI, Brian calls him extraordinary ......... Crawl Thru Fire link Born To Be Wild link Play That Funky Music link

gerry wrote: Adam Lambert is shit full stop. He has got no stage presence like Freddie, and his singing voice is that of a west end star, plain and boring. He does not play piano or write hits and basically not fit for Rock Music, but maybe west end productions like "Cats" Please note, that no one at the Freddie Mercury tribute could sing Queens music comfortably so Adam certainly has a massive problem.

Magmadrag wrote: Hm.... his voice is okay - but ot for Queen. For me it's the same trash as they did with Paul Rodgers: It's not QUEEN anoymore! I think that Brian and Roger possibly felt to young to quit when Freddie passed, but using still the name "Queen" was in my opinion for real fans the worst idea. Everybody knew Brian May at that point of time, but they used the name Queen as it was a guarantee to fill stadiums. Adam has a better voice (in case of Queen songs) than Rodgers had (at least in my opinion), but it's at least as worse as Axl Rose singing for AC/DC

Vocal harmony wrote: ^^^ true. And in fact they are playing to the same sized audiences the Works tour was selling too, with the addition of America. Also many of the open air shows are bigger than those played on the UK leg of Hot Space and in some cases equal to some of the shows on the Magic tour. Generally more successful than the PR line up and in many ways equal to what they were doing with Freddie. Quite amusing when you think about some of the hateful response they had to the first dates in 2012. Some of the other comments about Lambert being too young, he is the same age as they were at their live peak in the 80's

HAHA !! One of the greatest things ever said. But it's true - he's stronger at the ballads. It just goes to show that Mercury's versatility is pretty well unparalleled. He crossed genres like a boss, and at best singers can pull off portions of the package, but not all of it.

If it bothers you so much, why do you watch?? Your post says "every time I see them with AL I can't stand it." If you saw them once and couldn't stand it, why did you see them again? You should just stay in your childhood bedroom listening to old Queen albums and bemoaning the fact that Freddie is gone.

I know you didn't ask me this question, but I don't think being there in person or seeing footage of concerts makes that much odds in the sense that footage on YouTube tells you all you need to know. Many artists have off nights. But if you don't much like the sound of the artist on YouTube, they're not going to be an improvement at the actual show. I saw Queen+ Lambert in 2012. But I went there to see Roger and Brian, not Lambert. His voice is just as shrill in real life as it is on YouTube.

I totally disagree, firstly with regard to DVD footage, it's all been highly edited to show the best possible performance, secondly YouTube is really not the best way to judge an artist, fine you get a sense of what is happening but the sound quality and picture quality is crap, thirdly, seeing someone perform in the fleash is 100% different to watching it on TV or computer, you are part of the crowd, they are speaking to you, you are part of that performance, you get caught up in the emotion of the night, it's so totally different to watching on a screen. My point is if you never saw Freddie live you really never saw him fully, same goes for Adam, I see a lot of people here moaning about the fact that Adam is no Freddie, yet they never saw Freddie and they haven't seen Adam....??? Freddie was amazing when I first saw him, pretty crap in the middle of his career at times and amazing at the end, yet youtube doesnt show that... Adam was pretty rough at the start of this joining with Queen, but after 5 years he's much much better and actually he sits way better in the band that Paul Rodgers did the man who aledgedly has THE rock voice At his best nobody can top Freddie, that I've seen, yet at his worst he was pretty average some nights, when Adam has done 20 years of this it will be interesting to see how he has grown, as a performer. But fundimentally don't believe if you've seen them on youtube you've seen them.... you haven't

I wasn't talking about DVD footage though. There's many many concerts on YouTube which haven't had, nor will they ever likely get a DVD release. But I guess we disagree. For me, whether watching it on YouTube or live at the time, you know whether you like that voice and their style or performance. I don't think Lambert will ever go down as one of the all time greats. He lacks authenticity, and that voice just grates as far as I'm concerned. I'd take a bad Freddie performance on an off night a thousand times over Lambert (because for me, Lambert's voice is irritatingly harsh and shrill). From what I see now, he's much the same as he was 5 years ago. No matter what he does, he can't improve enough to appeal to me, in style, or voice. Both his voice and style would dramatically have to change in order for that. Having seen Lambert on live on YouTube and live in real life, there's nothing in it either way. It's louder at a concert (if you don't turn up your headphones too much at home), and there's an atmosphere there as you're at an event, but that doesn't make his performance / singing any better or worse than what you'd see on YouTube.

I hope your nose isn't too big. Otherwise you'll get double vision from looking down upon the pathetic masses who have never seen Freddie live.

No Freddie, No John Deacon. i was hard stage left standing between Brian, and Brian's vox system. as a 36 yr old american who got way into queen starting early 90s, can you understand for one minute how insane it was to be standing right next to brians vox system with brian right in front of me playing HAMMER TO FALL. When brians tech brought it out pre show, i was right there in back of him, i shouted over just 5 or 6 ft: """"IS THAT NOT A COPY""""" (shakes head no)....."""THATS IT???"""" (shakes head yes).........i was crying dog!!! there it was, the red fucking special, every album, almost every song, every concert. Stone Cold Crazy brought things back as far as they went this time. of course thats my only complaint that they didnt do anything from QUEEN 1 (or more realistically II or more from SHA)....i mean Queen 1 is by far their best. but thats not here nor there what im telling you is everyone working the tour knew it wasnt just another Styx 2017 us tour, this was a special situation, working for this band, at this time. Queen are back, as far as im concerned, and i wish i had the $$$ to go on tour and see more than 2 shows. did you hear how they did "its late" and "SPREAD YOUR WINGS"........ if you think, for one minute, that i ever thought id hear brian my shred SPREAD YOUR WINGS in 2017? you got to be kidding me, it was in-freaking-credible.

I understand that you simply don't like him and that wont change by seeing him live, but I think you are missing something if you feel a concert is simply louder live, if that's the case then why bother going to see anybody? watch it all on YouTube. I've never seen anything on YouTube that compares to watching a live show and being part of it, actually hearing the vocal and instruments live is totally different I'm sadened that some don't feel that these days, but then we have gone to a world where artists spend hundreds of thousands in a high quality studio recording music and we all listen to it on a phone... so I guess it's to be expected
