Marc is just a copycat or an imitator of Freddie..
He is nothing special..no karizma or showmanlshop especially music writting skills.
Most thing that annoys me that he thinks that he is special. But he is just a overated copycat.. Infact to me he is nothing like Freddie as I allways say,,lack of strenght in voice.
In my book there is no page for him.
Im just being honest...and that guy doesnt touch me when he sings.
Even that goat (ajajaja waaaaaaaaa)singer Adam Lambert is a mountain for him.

I was saying something about Marc but when Gregsynth speaks,I listen.
I know Greg from YT and facebook and hes bootlegs and I can asure you he knows staff,he is full of knowledge about Queen, voices of Marc, Adam etc.
Greetings Greg and to all my fellow Queenzoners
Greetings.
I'm not the most knowledgeable person on here at all. Yes, I love uploading the shows to Youtube and I do know some stuff - but I'm not the #1 person for Queen info.
There's plenty of users on here who'd kick my ass in Queen knowledge - I learn new stuff all the time and try to fix any errors I've made!
I really tire of people who claim Marc is just Imitating Freddie....People Get A Clue...That is how he sounds...he sounds just like that when he is singing a Queen song or when he sings a Downhere song...IT IS HIS VOICE!!!
Sorry for the rant...but I have liked Marc for more than a few years, and I get upset when he is dissed. Oh and by the way I have been a Queen fan since 1973...That Is All.
Nonetheless funny that no one read what I've written.... Just listen to the magic of Freddie when Marc sings those words. There can only be one but right there and then it was Freddies 70s voice all over again........
"Most thing that annoys me that he thinks that he is special. But he is just a overated copycat.."
This is what kills me with some of you people. It takes actual talent to perform a piece of music at that level, regardless of who wrote it.
Did Freddie ever play music he didn't come up with? "Sure, but he put his own spin on it!". Yeah, that's what Martel's doing here - he came up with an idea and was able to execute it because he's worked fucking hard at his craft.
I won't ever meet the guy and he could be a colossal ass behind the scenes for all I know or care, but I'm getting pretty fucking sick of seeing you clueless morons shooting him down for doing his job too well. It's been a common thread ever since QE gave him more exposure. 'Oh he's just copying Freddie!', you constantly say.
Yeah - that takes an enormous amount of singing talent, to the point that if you have that ability, you're not a wannabe - you're an, er ... actuallyalreadybe.
Shitlords.

I know you were at the Detroit QAL show (I think that's what the King of Rhye said). Have you also seen Marc perform in person in the QE? I've seen both men in person and they are both very talented vocally. I think Marc is lacking in stage presence but that may have improved since I saw the show in 2012.

Nailed it
Freddie was 100% original and talent
Marc is 100% talented to impersonate Freddie and 0% originality. He cant be himself so he tries to be someone else.
Talent =/= originality
He sounds like Pavarotti yes cause that way of singing is not hard to
mimic.
He sounds nothing like Freddie, here even i sound more like Freddie than him. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSvsvJva59k

Marc holds his own on his solo album, writes both music and lyrics quite well, just like Freddie, and has Freddie's raw energy of the early 80s. Just give Marc a couple more years - you will be jumping out of your seat!
