Just read this on FB - bloody marvellous and spot on from Siggy Spatsky with permesion to copy: People seem to be defending this enterprise on the basis that "+ Adam Lambert" is tacked on to the bill. But that is wilfully missing the point. It's the "Queen" label that's the problem. Unfortunately, due to no fault of their own, Brian and Roger are the only ones left willing or able to play music. It's equally unfortunate for them that Queen were a democratic group of 4 equals. Now I'll freely admit that my grasp on quantum mechanical theory is sketchy at best, but if you take 2 away from 4, it can no longer be called 4. Simply put, Brian and Roger by definition are not Queen. They are no more Queen that a cup of flour and an egg are a cake. Really, for this "+ Adam" equation to work it needs a minus or two to be thrown in the mix as well. In the end, I feel for Brian and Roger. I also respect the fact that they want to play together, and it's only natural that they play Queen material. But as much we desperately want to relive our childhoods, or manufacture an artefact of history that we were unlucky never to experience, we know in our heart of hearts that this isn't Queen. And I'm sure there's a nagging part in the back of Brian and Roger's brains that recognises the disingenuity of using the name. |

It‘s just a name. They play almost exclusively Queen songs, so I‘m fine with it. „Queen-2+AdamLambert“ might be a cool sounding name as well. Almost a mathematic formular. But since Freddie appears more than once during a concert and the songs are also his and John‘s, that name wouldn‘t speak the truth either. |

John appears also during the BoRhap video portion! Why are some people so bent out of shape over this magical collaboration? |

They know that the name sells. If it was announced as Brian May & Roger Taylor with Adam Lambert it would maybe sell way less. Ironic enough it was Brian who said in 1992 that they couldn't go out and be Queen anymore. It doesn't make sense where his words. If the boys wanna play live, that's fine with me. But it always will be bittersweet. |

ThIs was a clever marketing tool to get bums on seats so they call it Queen + and you think your getting a good deal of seeing two artists for the price of one but you are not really. What you get is two members from a previous rock band and a novice from a talent show who thinks he knows it all but he does not. Lack of ambience and the novice singer takes over the band with ridiculous costumes, screaming vocals and loses the Queen identity completely. This is not a Queen show in the slightest, it is a tribute of what they were back in the day with them trying to capture the magic but failing miserably. If you want to see a proper Queen tribute show go and see "Mercury" or " Magic" but excellent entertainment. |

The post that quote came from had some inane person posting that many comments saying they shouldn't use the name I lost IQ points just reading it. It's the same handful of people who seem to think they have a say in what Brian & Roger do. In the scheme of things they're a very small minority compared with all the positive comments from people who've seen the show but as usual they're the ones who shout loudest. |

He's makes people laugh but affectionately, maybe because he can laugh at himself. Whatever the reason no one cares about the clothes, make up etc, whenever people comment about him it's nearly always relating to his voice and tbh a lot of comments and reviews mention the flamboyance as a positive. |

It is a SHOW for goodness sakes! Shows involve makeup, outfits and all kinds of crazy, cool stuff. That is one of the reasons concert goers love the show as it is a fantastical, magical theatrical concert!!! Everyone on TV wears makeup and special clothing. Do you sit in a closet or what, since you don't have any idea of what constitutes show business and entertainment. Did the mighty Freddie not wear makeup and crazy clothes. I think he did! Just so you know, the entertainment business is pretending!! |

Well the "failing miserably" bit is where they have tried to be Queen but we all know they will never truly be Queen ever again. They can only pay tribute to themselves as a four piece rock outfit. It is not Queen in the slightest. it is good news then that we have the magic on cds and dvds so we can look back and compare how brilliant Queen were with the unmatched magnificent Freddie Mercury. Now take a look at a limp Queen on stage with a rock n roll wannabe, adam lambert its not the same and fans have left in there thousands disappointed. yes lots of little girls drool over him but he is a novelty for all to laugh at for he does look plastic like a barbie doll. |

As to being Queen again, well they aren't even trying, that's why they called it Queen + rather than do what a lot of band do and keep the name like for e.g AC/DC. They don't market themselves as Queen but a collaboration, no one goes expecting Queen and from the comments no one's disappointed that they don't get Queen, they accept that's over and this is a celebration of their music. |

Many Queen fans have thrown in the towel to Queen so you wont hear from the masses who have stopped seeing them live. Brian knows exactly that he hacked off a lot of Queen fans when he issued a statement by saying" if you do not like the new boy then thank you and goodbye" Many Queen fans were outraged at his flippant comments as if it was not for them he would not be a millionaire. He never even asked the fans who THEY wanted to front Queen, he just went behind all the fans backs and picked who he wanted and that was regardless of what Roger thought. If they could not find anyone better than Freddie then why carry on with anyone? I think next year things will change and Queen will be very quiet. This freak show will be long forgotten and many ardent fans like myself will rejoice and be glad that this cheesy tour is long gone. |

If they could not find anyone better than Freddie then why carry on with anyone? I think next year things will change and Queen will be very quiet. This freak show will be long forgotten and many ardent fans like myself will rejoice and be glad that this cheesy tour is long gone.Firstly Brian & Roger should be the ones to choose the singer since they are the ones who have to be out on the road with them. Imagine if they had put it to a vote. Aside from the fact that everyone would have their own opinion and wouldn't have necessarily agreed who it should be but it could have ended up being someone they couldn't get along with, didn't enjoy working with and spent the entire tour wishing it was over. Seriously would you want to find yourself in that situation if you didn't have to? And what makes you think Roger wasn't ok with it? Secondly when Brian made that comment, if you listen to what he actually said it was clear he expected most of the original fans to not be onboard with it, he said "we'll be seeing new faces and hopfully a few old ones", he'd obviously seen negative feedback from the early shows and was probably annoyed that they were getting so much stick for essentially still wanting to play live. There may have been a lot of Queen fans who didn't like the collab at the beginning but things have changed, more and more have seen the shows and been won over. I've seen loads of comments on Twitter & Facebook from die hard fans who've seen Freddie loads of times and are still going to multiple shows now. I do think they will give it a break next year, Adam will most likely be doing solo stuff but unless they suddenly develop a health problem they will be back touring again after that, Brian said he'd be doing this until he drops. I'm guessing Roger feels the same although I haven't heard him actually say it. |

Happystar, why on god's green earth would Brian and or Roger consult the fans as to who they would like fronting the band? He went behind the fan's backs and picked out who he wanted? Really. So, if you are a storeowner and you are moving to another place, do you consult all the shoppers as to what they would prefer as far as a new location? I have never heard anything more ridiculous in my entire life. I think that qualifies as one of the most stupid statements I have ever read on here and that is saying a lot. When you make a personal decision, do you consult the world? No, you make it yourself for the most part, other than family or very close friend who might weigh in. I have no idea why you would ever think Roger was not on board as I have never read that. Seems to me it was Spike or Neill maybe, that sent them a video of Adam on Idol and Queen chose to come and sing with him and check him out at the Finale. I don't believe it was ever a Brian only decision. Then they much, they later did the EMA and then the IHeart show. Each one to carefully test the waters and vet him, which is what a proper band would do. Once Adam had passed all the vetting which was over a several year period, they decided to embark on their journey. Picking your band mate is not anyone else's business but Brian and Roger's (no clue what John said, but must not have nixed it!) and then the other members playing with Queen. If Brian had listened to die hard Queen fans, there would have been no QAL, which would have been a terrible shame seeing all the joy they have had playing as a band and all the job the million of fans have had in the last 160 plus shows. Brian is right about lump it, or leave it. If you don't like QAL, that is your right, but goodbye for now. It makes no sense to rant about QAL every day. But way more die hards have fallen in love with QAL, so your entire post is just ridiculous. |

AC/DC confirmed with there fans when Brian Johnson was picked to the front the band and that worked out fine. Brian has become very arrogant and he thinks Queen is his business were Roger is the last to know about stuff. May was always jealous of Freddie as Mercury always dismissed Mays idea if they were ridiculous and i am sure Lambert would also get the thumbs down from Freddie. I know John Deacon is not fussed, because he even rejected Robbie Williams as lead singers for Queen. |

You can complain forever but it won't change the fact that people are loving the shows, why's it such a big deal? |

It is a big deal because it is very embarrassing for the average Queen fan to have to stomach a talentless twit who think he is gods gift when in essence he is a nobody he is only pretending that he is this big icon who cross dresses and he will never be a rock n roller ever. He is unoriginal as far as the dressing up goes and he has the cheek to wear a crown at the end of the show so he is copying of Freddie to a certain degree. Queen used to be taken seriously as a respected rock band, now they are as respected as that spoof band spinal tap. Lambert is painful to watch and i am sorry for going on but he means nothing to me at all. As a long standing Queen fan i am offended that this buffoon is lead singer even if the sly project is called Queen + Adam Lambert to give us purist fans a softer blow it is still wrong why not go on facebook and see all the people who hate Lambert especially on Freddie Mercury sites. |

If you go to a Freddie site then you are gonna get the die hard purists who hate the idea of replacing him so yeah I dare say there is a lot of hate on there, but the actual Queen page where the majority of fans of the band as opposed to just Freddie fans are they tell a different story. No one's an original really, everyone is influenced by someone else, be it in dress sense or musical style whatever, but Adam has always dressed up and acted the way he does long before the Queen thing, it's not done to copy Freddie but he and Bowie and Prince were influences. I don't see any cross dressing going on, dressing in drag is not his thing but dressing up and acting a bit camp for fun is very much his thing. Regardless of anything else Brian & Roger are having an absolute blast and it would be selfish to deny them that when through no fault of their own they lost Freddie so early in their career, they're having a second bite of the cherry and I can't see any negatives in that. |
Star* 09.07.2018 16:08 |
Rockchic: You say you don't see any cross drag, then look at the recent wembley shows and see Lambert in huge stiletto boots and wearing a long red cape and wearing a lot of eye liner and slap he is similar to a thailand lady boy. Now that embarrasses me a lot especially when i wear my Queen T shirts now as people may think i support Lambert! |
Liliane 09.07.2018 16:43 |
It is funny how happystar claims to be a Freddie fan and yet is constantly throwing homophobic slurs at Adam. I can completely understand why some Queen fans don't take to Adam. To each their own. But you and runner take it to another level. Why not spend more energy on people and things that you love instead of wasting so much energy hating on someone every single day. You should stop wearing your Queen t-shirt, I have a feeling that all 4 of the Queen members would have been embarrassed to have you as a fan. |

High boots/shoes are worn by Kiss and all the glam rock bands of the 70's etc, and incidentally they aren't stiletto, being a girl I can tell the difference even if you can't, the long red cape is actually a sleveless coat, don't see how that is mean't to be cross dressing, in fact none of those things are. And that comment about wearing a Queen T Shirt says a lot about you. Out in the real world the majority of people have no problem with Adam whatsoever and wouldn't think anything of you wearing a Queen T Shirt, they would assume you're a fan of the original band. Instead of reading the Freddie facebook pages try looking on the Queen one, might stop you feeling so paranoid when you see all the people loving this collab and not in the least embarrassed by anything Adam does or wears. |

Rockchic : If you think that is acceptable for Lambert to look like a freak then that is up to you but as you said earlier everyone laughs at him because he looks absolutely ridiculous. You take him serious as a performer well that says more about you been very immature indeed. Try discovering someone who has actual talent instead of looking like a muppet then you may get some respect on here. |

I don't care what he wears or if he makes silly jokes etc, I care that he sings well and that he's fun to watch and on those two points he never disappoints. He might like to have fun and be silly but when it comes to voice and performance he takes that very serious, always does extensive soundchecks, makes sure he takes care of his voice and makes sure he's fit enough for the show. That's why I take him seriously as a performer. |

i very much doubt Lambert could fill all the stadiums and arenas that he has been playing with Queen ! To be a credible performer he has to conquer that on his own and i doubt he ever will. Queen got the stadiums and arenas filled up because they are rock legends. |

Not sure what that proves though, there's a lot of artist who fill arena's and stadiums that aren't talented, Britney for instance can't sing live which to me is a total no no if you're performing live. |

Thank God this thing is over soon now and they are climb back under their Rock in their dreamworld for good. patheticI'm not backpedaling at all I've never said Adam fills arena's solo. He has a very loyal fan base, is extremely well thought of as an incredible vocalist by the industry but for whatever reason that doesn't translate into huge numbers of fans. Some people with little talent get huge numbers of followers for whatever reason, like Britney. That to me doesn't denote talent. There are tons of talented singers/bands out there, indie bands for example who don't fill arena's. If they don't get the radio play of say Taylor Swift or Ed Sheeran etc then they aren't going to build up a huge following since a lot of people will never hear of them. I'm sure most singers/bands would love to tour big arena's and stadiums, some achieve it some don't but so long as they can make a living doing what they love I consider that being successful. Maybe being a girl I don't have that my teams better than yours mentality, to me there's room for lots of people's talent and I don't really care about who gets the most instagram followers or likes or any of that fake BS. I consider Adam lucky in that he gets to tour big arena's with Queen which he may or may not have done solo, no way to know since he pretty much put his solo stuff on hold to focus on Queen + but either way if he only tours smaller venues with his new album, so what, he'll still be happy. I saw Foreigner a couple of months ago at the Apollo Manchester, a lot smaller venue than the arena, 3500 capacity, but they are touring the world so to me they are successful, just not on a Katy Perry level and infinitely more talented. |

Wow that was quite the collection of outfits and wasn't it Freddie who said - "I have fun with my clothes onstage, it's not a concert you're seeing it's a fashion show". runner Adam doesn't take himself seriously and keep saying it won't make it any more true.

Well we could debate this till the cows come home but i know Lambert has made no great impression on the UK sales market and he has flopped here with his solo career. I think many people in the uk just do not connect with him. He is a gimmick and staying with Queen is his biggest downfall because if his solo career was most important to him he would have pursued that rather than playing karaoke games with Queen. When time does come to go solo he will struggle like hell. |

I've already said why he hasn't concentrated as much on his solo stuff but he will be after September no doubt. And I really don't see the UK as majorly important, there's a whole world out there and as long as he does well enough to tour with his solo stuff that's the important thing. He has enough fans over here to be able to tour, he toured his last album here. |

At the Geran board there is a duscussion about QAL. NOINE, really NONE is ever saying "Lmabe-Bert blew me away". Most who liked it went away "it is great to see Maylor but AL is a strane choice". Thats why Lamebird will have to rethink if it was worth it o spend his time as a karaoke parrott for the last six years while his solo career went down the toilet even further. He even lost his record contract now during his QAL stint. Says it all..... |

As to his solo career that's for him to worry about, and you've no idea about the record contract no one knows for sure what the situation is there and I'd say that's his problem to worry about as well. Like happystar said we could debate this till the cows come home, won't change a thing so we'll just have to agree to differ on the subject and draw a line, especially since the tour's ended for the time being. |
Sealion 11.07.2018 09:02 |
I don’t think the current discussions on here are worth my energy. But just so you know: The German forum runner is talking about is almost dead. There are only a couple of Queen fans writing at all, and that very occasionally. I never saw Lambert fans taking part in any discussion. But some are members of the German Queen Fanclub. When I was queuing before the gig in Cologne, I met many of his fans. Actually it was a nice talking to all the different fans: old Queen fans, new Queen fans, Queen fans, who also became Adam fans and Glamberts, who were only there for their idol. Yes, two fans even said, they don’t really like Queen, but that’s the only way to see Adam live at the moment. And they also talked about his solo concerts in Germany. From what they said, they all sold out and were brilliant. Everybody who really attends one of these gigs, can see a sea happy people. All sorts of fans, getting very well along and having fun together. |

If an artist does nor conquer the UK then they are in big trouble. All artists want to crack the UK because it is the most important country in the world a far as music is concerned. Adam is not thought of in high regards here because weve seen his style all before in Boy George & Steve Strange wearing all the make u and effeminate costumes. Lambert is unoriginal as far as clothes are concerned. |
Sealion 11.07.2018 10:12 |
You seem to have a big problem, with what Lambert wears. Why? For the latest Queen gigs he wore 4 costumes, that I would consider theatrical and over the top. He also wore 3 costumes, that looked completely stylish and tame. It‘s a mixture and generally fits the songs. Since I have seen him solo: He wore the same mixture there. Just a bit less theatrical. At one of their last gigs, someone from the band posted a picture from the soundcheck. Lambert wore the same things, my son would wear: trainers and a basecap. He looked completely normal. What he wears on stage are costumes. And they are tame, compared to the things, Freddie , Bowie or Boy George wore on stage. Your problem is the person, who is wearing them. |
rockchic65 11.07.2018 10:23 |
I agree with Sealion regards the fans, the show I went to and the feedback online is in the main positive form all different kinds of fans. As to the UK, maybe artists would like to crack it but many don't, it doesn't stop them having a career. Back at the beginning I'm sure Adam wanted mainstream chart success and obviously wanted to have a long career in music, because he loves it and also because of the money. One of the first interviews he did, he said he wanted money to buy a house etc but that's not a problem now so I think his priorities have changed. Maybe working with Brian & Roger has changed his outlook, they've always said they were an album's band and any single's success was just incidental, they didn't set out to have chart hits. From the things I've heard Adam say recently that seems to be more where he's at now and IMO opinion a healthier way to look at things. He's got other projects in the works besides his album so I'm sure he'll be fine whatever happens. |

Rockchic: i disagree with what you said about Queen been exclusively wanting to be an albums band, they became very commercial in the late seventies and singles were very important to Queen because Roger said if people liked the singles they put out it made them curious to buy the album. After Bohemian Rhapsody singles were very important to Queen and there millions of fans. |

Not saying they didn't like the fact that a lot of their songs became singles, who wouldn't. It really isn't the be all and end all now, especially not in the current music climate where streaming has took over mostly, it changes the game for artists now. There's very little money to be made from sales or streaming, the money comes from touring so as long as something is popular enough with your fans to warrant a tour that's the thing that matters most. |
Iron Butterfly 11.07.2018 20:12 |
I cannot imagine AL solo shows, pulling in the crowds the way Q+AL did, or even getting the attention. If I were AL, I'd find a band of my own and go from there. I think he will be a solo artist, unless he really sticks to changing his mind about the genre/s of music he wants to do. |

Adam won't be able to pull in Queen size crowds and none of his fans expect that. Just to be able to tour and make money is all he needs to do. There are very few groups and single artists that are successful like Queen. I am sure Adam tours with them because it is just so much fun and he knows it will never happen on his own. Taking advantage of a wonderful opportunity is a good thing for him. He always says when he tours there are no private jets and amenities like Queen has and he just laughts. Sounds like he is fine with that! |

Didn't Queen once do an amazing show at the Hammersmith? Despite what you might think he does actually have more fans than the few you argue with on here. |

Snifflese: You hit the nail on the head when you said adam gets to tour and make MONEY which is why he sticks to Queen because he really has no respect for Freddie and just a money grabber. Many artists wouldnt dare take up an offer to be Queen vocalist because they know how brilliant and crafted Freddie was within the band. Lambert wont leave Queen he knows where his breads buttered, and where is going to make big money. Rockchic: Lambert may have a lot of fans but his audience is mainly female just like Barry Manilow or Justin Bieber. |
rockchic65 12.07.2018 07:50 |
Wrong on all counts happy and runner First Adam doesn't tour with Queen just for money and anyone watching them together would know that, they have so much fun together, both on and offstage, why wouldn't they want to keep doing it. And taking up that offer must have been daunting, imagine the uphill battle every night, knowing you have to win people over following in Freddie's footsteps, you're right most artist's would have swerved that one. But why should he and why should Brian & Roger not get to do what they love and still tour, it's hardly their fault they lost their frontman so early in their career. His audience might be made up of more women than men but there's still quite a lot of guys at his solo shows, check out the audiences if you don't believe me. runner - I didn't compare him to Queen I was meaning if it was good enough for Queen to play there why wouldn't it be good enough for Adam. Also I'm still waiting for your explanation of why he won't be playing Europe anymore, either solo or with Brian & Roger. |
snifflese 12.07.2018 12:33 |
Yea, Runner there are a lot of dudes at the shows and he seems to be gaining more male fans based on the tweets and facebook posts that I see. Males are beginning to appreciate his vocals and what he brings to Queen. I am curious if you hate Adam because he is gay? You always mention gay bars and that he is an abomination. You mention trannies and his makeup. I am suspecting that is what fuelss yor animus and it ain't pretty. If you don't like him for whatever reason, just put a sock in it! You are the abomination, my friend, some feckless, wimpy keyboard warrior that thinks he can say whatever he wants because it is anonymous on the internet. Shame on you! |

What I can tell you is, from the few times I've talked to Roger Taylor there is no way he would take a back seat to Brian on anything Queen related. They work together as a band not a dictatorship. It's ok having an opinion but don't justify it by talking rubbish, it weakens your argument and makes you sound a bit like you clutching at straws. |

Snifflese - when the arguments of Glamtarts are running out then they are playing the "gay" card. FUck you. I dont care who he fucks be it men women or goats (most likely regarding his voice). Freddie was gay as well and it did not affect me at all. Fred wore embarrassing clothes as well but he got away with it because behind it there was his musical genius in the first place and he was alsway tongue in cheek. Lametart is a muscial abomination, a tool who has no abilities whatsoever, still he acts as if he was that bg icon. I can almost hear him think "now I am the King" whe he is getting his crown in the end. He still stays a talentless fucker regardless who he is sleeping with. |

If Lambert quit tomorrow Bri and Rog would just trawl more american talent shows for a replacement who would hit all the notes just as easily. All he'd have to be is young, male and in the middle of his 15 minutes of fame in the U.S. Singers with a similar range are ten a penny. |

His 15 mins was long over when he teamed up with Queen, even on his first tour he was playing smaller venues not arena's so that doesn't really work either. May as well have asked Beiber if that's what they needed. They won't be replacing him anyway so it hardly matters really. |

You obviously don't know what you are talking about, Dr. Magus. There are very few singers in the world, including the opera world, who can consistently,night after night hit the notes that Adam hits. Most can't get up into that high of a register and they often have to use a very breathy falsetto, which in no way sounds the same. He has amazing technical abilities, a huge Usable range and sounds credible in all the genres pertaining to Queen music. I always love it when people say this singer has such and such a range. The ability to hit a note in no way means that you can sustain it and that it doesn't sound like someone just stepped on your cat! His entire range is fluid and melodic and has a wonderful tone that not many singers can emulate. Aside from the singing, Adam has that "look at me" quality which makes you focus on him when he is singing. He isn't a boring as paint singer that you would just as soon not look at. Freddie had that quality and Adam is definitely working it out. There are still some small issues to work on, but Freddie wasn't a rock god from the first show. You grow into your stage persona over many years and the improvement in Adam from show one to now is amazing. Think what you want, but your statement if full of holes and Adam has been around successfully for almost 10 years now, not 15 minutes, Dude! |

At the first Glam Nation Show I attended in Columbus, Ohio in 2010 the queue line was around the block and almost to a freeway exit. There were men and women of all ages and where I was standing during the show the men were cheering as loud or louder than the women. Adam was completely mesmerizing. He started out with around 50 shows and ended up with double that because of the demand. I ended up at two more that were added in Ohio and Pennsylvania! |

I will say this, AL's solo shows will never be in the same league as Q+AL shows. His solo music doesn't draw the crowds n for his solo music, that's a fact. Are you saying AL can sell out the places Q+AL has played? It would be interesting if AL ever started his own band. |

It was something he and his original guitar player had worked on before Idol and the record company decided to release it and another one called paramount sessions at the time his second album was being released, to make it seem like it was the album he'd been working on, presumably to cash in on that. The same company had already released an album (Take One) from when he worked as a session singer, so not his own material just as he was releasing his first album, presumably for the same reason. No wonder he was mad. |

A self declaration that you have musical taste ( in order to put you on a perceived higher footing then others) and your persistent insults of people you have no moral advantage over puts you firmly in the same ball park as Trump. He is someone who regularly does both those things and has been called out on several occasions both by the media, political observers and other politicians. My post wasn't an insult to him or you, really, unless you agree that Trump has some very questionable opinions, in which case maybe you hold enter into an informed discussion rather than resort to abusive comments especially as that is what your post is accusing me of. Another thing that you have omitted to mention is that having not replied in anyway to anything you've posted over the last few weeks, when I decided to comment on something you said mentioning me your reply as so often was name calling and childish. If you want me to lower my values and communicate with you in the same way that communications with runner (Martin Weckwerth) is carried out then that's fine I'll do that. |

I went on to question your metal stability because of the way you repete the same things over and over again and leave no room for debate or at least a different view point. With regard to the micro penis thread which you mentioned earlier, right or wrong, don't you think it was started as a reaction to the constantly abusive, childish and derogatory nature of almost all of Martin Weckwerth's posts If your going to post on a forum then try discussing points and subjects and try understanding why there are different views to yours and why to som people your views might be right but also the other side of the arguments is equally valid But remember one thing, you are passing judgment on gigs that you haven't attended and at the moment you seem to have ore in common with the 70's music press who very often passed critical judgment on Queen out of hand, with no substance and on some occasions without actually seeing a gig. |
Star* 20.07.2018 14:45 |
vocal harmony i do agree with that one thing you said which is the 70s music press been very critical on Queen even though crap like punk rock got praised. As for me understanding other peoples views on here, well i do look at both sides of the coin and with this Lambert discussion i dismiss instantly anyone who says this collaboration is better than the original Queen set up, in fact sweetcaroline did and she has no respect for Queen /Freddie at all cos her time revolves around Adam and what i argue here which is valid is that Adam does not have the motivation, talent and song writing abilities Freddie had and never will. How anyone can argue on a thread about a nobody been better than a rock legend is bonkers. Those silly girls who would jump over a cliff for Adam are bonkers and they have no musical taste at all. |
snifflese 20.07.2018 15:52 |
I am not sure what you have been reading on here, but no pro QAL posters have ever said that Adam is better than Freddie or that we have no respect for the oringinal Queen. That is just pure nonsense. For some of us, QAL is the only live Queen (like) show we have seen and we are impressed with it. We also maybe don't relate to Freddie like we do Adam who some of us have been following for close to 10 years. That certainly does not mean that anyone thinks the original Queen is inferior to QAL. That is ridicuous. Caroline has never said that! I am not sure what writing the music has to do with singing it. Listening to a Queen show is not dependent on writing skills. It is the musicanship and the vocal abilities that determine whether it is good enough. Some of the musicians are the same and Adam can sure sing. Whether or not he writes music, doesn't amount to a hill of beans for most of us. His instrument is his voice and it is an amazing one. As far as motivation, that kid never stops. He is always doing something and has had many unique opportunities in his life because he is so motivated. You may not think much of his talent, but there are many here who would beg to differ with you. He just has some different ones than Freddie, nothing wrong with that. We get that you hate him, so go post in the Queen only sections. Why bug us here with your nasty Debbie Downer stuff? |

Lambert would be dog poo if it had not been for the magnificent Queen songs that he makes his money out of night in night out and when he goes back to been a solo star he will feel his popularity shrink like a balloon. Yes i dislike Lambert infact i hate everything about him from his weird looks to his appalling singing when his tongue hangs out like a demented lizard yuk ! How anyone thinks he has talent i just do not know. easy money singing some one else's music but it takes a real genius to write rock anthems like the band did including Freddie. When or if Lambert writes a song as good as Freddie could i may sit up and listen. long wait i feel possibly to the end of eternity. |

If the roles were reversed and Adam had been the original member and Freddie had stepped in to his shoes and you were a Freddie fan, would you not prefer Freddie? Doesn't mean it's true, just that some of Adam's fans will prefer him just like Freddie's fans prefer him. That takes absolutely nothing away from Freddie, Queen fans are always going to prefer him. As to hating Adam, that's your personal opinion, other people have a different one and should feel free to post about him in the QAL section of the forum without constant abuse. There's nothing to be gained by keep repeating insults about him, you've said your opinion and we get it, we just feel differently. |

We know there is nothing to be gained by crowing on about it but it helps dampen down the overloaded hype for Lambert. Lambert was over hyped the moment he appeared on American idol and its continued and to be honest i cannot see the appeal at all. He is a bland boring performer who just got lucky and Queen will be the biggest thing he ever gets to do in his life. |

Fans of anyone always think how can everybody not like them, it's human nature to think what we like is brilliant, but if they are young they may not have been exposed to Queen music and have grown up liking other things, so obviously if they encountered Adam before Queen they may prefer his voice, that's the way things tend to work. As to being over hyped, lots of people in the industry would disagree, there's even people on here who've seen the show and don't like his voice or performance style but still say technically he's brilliant as a singer, so saying he's over hyped or can't sing doesn't hold water, the two things aren't the same. End of the day nothing anyone say's is going to change Brian & Roger's mind so why not ignore Adam related stuff on this part of the forum and leave it to people who do like the collaboration. |

Runner, you are basically a piece of human Dreck or you couldn't possible write the vile things that you do! You obviously know nothing about music or the voice in particular. Otherwise you would know that Adam has one of the finest voices around. Anyone who has worked with him mentions that amazing voice. There have been many, many music teachers, opera performers and directors that have praised him to high heaven for his voice. Fans almost always mention it in tweets, facebook etc. Other performers with great voices bow to him after they hear him sing live. Martel, Pentatonix, and too many others have praised his voice. The fact that you don't appreciate it just at all, shows that your don't understand singing at all. You may not like the sound or the way he uses it, but almost everyone acknowledges that he has an amazing instrument. You are one of the few, who doesn't like the way he sounds! AND that is not a problem, but the way you go about it is ugly at best. |
runner_70 21.07.2018 06:25 |
I hate the way he sounds and looks AND have ears that he is not able to carry a tune without his annoying vibrato. You Glamfuckers mix up "Hitting high notes" with "being able to sing": He is ALWAYS one or two seconds or even more off behind the music or vice versa.

Lets get back to this "good voice " that you mention time and time again shall we! As we know Adam is singing legendary Queen music, so when that is over and he has to go back to his bland solos career with the crap solo music then people will start to realise it was only the Queen songs that made him appear amazing, in fact if you have a good song sometimes lack of vocal ability gets you through the bad times and Lambert really is out cut out for rock n roll, he was in musicals was he not like "Wicked" which suits he voice more. Leave the rock n roll theme to the icons like Mercury, Jagger, Plant, Bowie, etc.......... All i am saying here is Lambert could find something else better to suit his vocal range, but murdering Queens back catalogue night after night is pretty painful. |

People wouldn't quote him as being one of the best live singers alive today if he were even close to being as bad as you make out, he's not a big enough deal commercially to be able to bribe all these people to sing his praises so what exactly would they get out of raving about him if they were talking rubbish? |

You're quoting the legendary Queen music in the context of that making him sound better than he actually is and then saying it doesn't suit his voice and is painful, it can't work both ways. Also he was known for his voice straight away, long before he worked with Queen, that's what got him noticed all the way through Idol and his first tour especially, all the insane stuff he could do with his voice, so that's not gonna change after the Queen stuff ends. He did start out in musicals and classical singing but although I've no doubt he could be great doing that if he wanted his tendency to prefer wailing out rock style doesn't suit that environment and if you listen to any of them they all start out how they should and veer off into Axl territory part way through, he clearly much prefers to sing rock or contemporary music to the sedate classical stuff. |

You know, having your tongue out facilitates those really high notes. The tongue placement is optimized to keep the back of the throat open and it is good vocal technique. You can't hit those super high notes without some tongue extension. He doesn't do falsetto, so this is a requirement because Adam can hit those high notes that most people can't. Adam's technique is impeccable, he had vocal lessons for over 10 years at least and probably more. This idea that it looks like a lizard is ridiculous. Don't watch him, don't listen to him and don't post on here with these absolutely ridiculous comments. You obviously know very little about vocal technique! Al you two can do is write stupid stuff that no one wants to read!! |

Why do you have to call people names? I have never seen this kind of behavior before. Why can't you just refer to him as Lambert and let it go? You didn't answer the question about Steve Perry's voice. I guess you wouldn't know how to critique it as all you seem to be able to do is criticize and make fun of people.

Freddie Mercury was miles in front of Steve Perry even in the seventies, Mr Mercury was a hard act to compete with, i mean just listen to Freddie's voice on "Love of my Life" it is immaculate and pristine where as Steve Perry's voice is similar to Adam Lambert's voice which is thin and annoying although i would go with Steve Perry over Lambert any day and at Least Perry sings his own material for a living and not ripping the fans off. Freddie is regarded as the best male vocalist ever so why should Queen fans do with someone like Lambert who is not even on the same page as Freddie? Queen are short changing there talents with this odd ball Lambert. |

I've no idea how much you actually know about the technicalities of voice but the difference you hear between Freddie and Steve in fullness of voice is because of the voice type/timbre. No way a high tenor like Steve could ever sound like a baritenor like Freddie, vocal chords are just made anatomically different. So what you hear as thin is just a different timbre. As to your comment about why should fans make do with Adam - well Freddie might have been the greatest male vocalist to many people but sadly he's not here anymore and life has to go on. Brian & Roger spent years along with Freddie & John writing and recording that music and want to still be out there playing it live, it makes them happy, but they need a vocalist to do that. Might not be your taste but it works for a lot of people and he can sing everything in the original key which makes their job much easier. Going by your comment I'm assuming you'd have a problem no matter who they chose to tour with since no one could compare to Freddie? |

Rockchic: Your comment about Adam singing in perfect key to all the Queen songs is a joke because he cannot sing everything Freddie recorded, he has had terrible performances with many of the bands songs, and reaching high notes does NOT make him a great singer. Freddie was the master of vocals and Adam is still very much a novice and has more of his craft to learn. |

Obviously he hasn't sung every song recorded since the set lists don't include every song, I'm talking the ones they do on tour. He doesn't have terrible performances, even if some people don't care for his style of singing or his timbre/tone that doesn't make him bad at singing, just not to their taste, the same way you don't care for Steve Perry's tone or singing style. As to being a novice, that's not even close to true, he's had years of experience and vocal training, in fact that's probably the reason some people don't like his style of singing, it's a trained voice, not the raw sounding rock voice some people prefer. |

Well Freddie was not trained with his voice yet he became the worlds greatest male rock singer, so make you wonder that training aint that good after all. I bet the person that won American idol when Lambert was in the contest was not trained either, natural talent is what its all about. |

There's for and against regards training, it can give you the edge when it comes to longevity, knowing how to protect your voice, how to complete a long tour without damage and how to hit the notes without cracking or straining, but you probably lose something in the raw feel and strain of rock singing which goes into making it seem more authentic. |

Actually, Runner, Adam can sing every song in the Queen catalog in the original key, which pretty much no one else can. If fact, Brian May said that Adam can hit high notes that Freddie could not, esp. in live performances. We both know that Freddie sometimes had off nights if you are being honest about it. One of the most amazing things about Adam, whether you care for his voice or not, he is amazingly consistent. There are no off nights and off key performances no matter how long the tour is. I am not touting Adam over Freddie but these are facts. Freddie is the original and there will never be anyone like him, but there are aspects to Adam's voice that are very, very solid. That is probably due to Freddie's not being a trained singer. He might not have known some of the things he needed to do to maintain his voice like a trained singer would. Adam is very careful with his voice and you can hear it from concert to concert. When he has several shows in a few short days, he might sing a little lower and leave out a couple of the stratospheric notes. Other times they are back in, if there is more recovery time. No one ever notices unless you listen to many, many of the concerts. A little manipulation of the songs does not impact the quality at all. It is just a little different that night and everyone still loves it! |

Snifflese You do sell Adam to the chimney tops and back but i still am not impressed, Why do you bother with your drivel trying to make out he is the bees knees when he has nver had a number one single or been voted best male vocalist ever? He is a "Z" lister as far as pop singers go, and i would probably say he is not as big as "One Direction" he is in the mould of "Callabro" or "Jackpack" just west end musical singers and that is it. Freddie done a hell of a lot more than Lambert did on stage, he played piano he was very active on stage, climbing scaffolding, and getting the audiences into a frenzy. Lambert does not exactly make any effort on stage and i find his performance quite lazy and sloppy. Mercury is the greatest male vocalist & Performer hands down, and your Lambert comes no were near the quality and richness of a Freddie Mercury performance so please cut the bull and look a little bit closer to your screen and see Lambert for what he really is, mediocre and that is been over generous. |
SweetCaroline 22.07.2018 19:42 |
You can have a good or great voice but it takes more than that to be a successful live performer. Adam said he was nervous at that first full QAL concert in Kiev but you would never know it. This may not be a good example but when my daughter was in high school she went to an event at a college where you are critiqued by a vocal expert. The girl who performed before her could hardly sing because she was shaking like a leaf. My daughter said she was nervous too but she had a big broad smile on her face the whole time. The judge wrote a special note to her that her stage presence was excellent and she should consider pursuing anything that would put her in front of an audience. Besides performing in many local stage shows she became a TV reporter-anchor person for over 20 years and now she teaches journalism and radio/tv production. |
SweetCaroline 22.07.2018 19:50 |
happystar, I ask you again — which LIVE performance did you attend for either a solo or QAL performance with Adam? Adam was not promoted as much as other singers have been. I’m surprised that Simon Cowell didn’t latch onto him like he did with One Direction. |

There's tons of singers who don't throw themselves around the stage, climbing scaffolding etc, doesn't make them lazy or worse than anyone else, they all have their own type of persona. As to equating chart hits with talent, that doesn't work either, there are lots of talented singers/bands out there who haven't made it big in chart hits. |

There are lots of people who run around the stage and they suck. Personally I am not into singers running around like a crazy person and climbing scaffolding. To each his own. I care about the singing!! Idiots can also get an audience into a frenzy, but that doesn't mean squat to me either. You are just avoiding the idea that Adam can sing in the orignal key which no one else can really do except he and Freddie! You can have the most wonderful voice in the world and never have a #1 hit. Taylor Swift has sold Lord knows how many albums, but her songs are drivel and she honestly can't sing without autotone. Wow! I am really excited about her #1's. Big deal! |

Good examples are The Foo's, Dave's brilliant at that, running around generating energy and another is Jared Leto with his crowd surfing and the very weird way he has of getting his fans to sing on cue, he's like some kind of cult leader. Adam has charisma and gets the audience on board, just in a totally different type of way, more with eye contact, facial expressions and being fun. Any way you can work an audience has it's merits and each way won't connect with everyone. There's lots of songs that don't make it to No1 that are great and there's a ton of great songs on albums that are never released as singles. SSOR, KQ, NIH, the first three charting Queen singles didn't reach No 1 and Liar & KYA didn't even chart, but I doubt you think they're all rubbish. |

Ted Neeley's a better singer than Lambert, and in the genre of music Lambert is best at i.e. musical theatre.

That said I completely disagree with the notion of anyone being the best singer on the planet, it's just plain daft, there's a ton of amazing singers out there and whoever you're a fan of will be the best in you're eyes, it's not objective and how can it be when everyone responds to different sounds for different reasons and even different styles of music. Someone who's an opera buff isn't gonna think Chester Bennington was a great singer. Not a Ted Neeley fan myself and I personally don't think he's better than Adam, he has a totally different type of voice anyway, I prefer Balsamo The problem is Adam may have started out in that type of music but it's not what he likes to do so it's hard to tell how good he could be at it if he really tried, I'm betting very but I doubt we'll ever find out. |
Holly2003 23.07.2018 14:01 |
Lambert has never sung a Queen song with any soul. For example, he sings Somebody to Love like he's in a west end musical. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make with that opera/chester bennington comment. I said Chester was a rock singer who has a great range and a soulful voice. I didn't say he could sing opera. I doubt sweetcaroline has heard of any of these people and yet still insists Lambert is the best at every genre -- the way I used to think of Fred many years ago in my teens. |

Listen to the James Michael podcast I posted above. He is the one who said Adam is the best male vocalist on the planet. He was particularly impressed with his confidence and control. If you can skip to the last 15 minutes or you will hear a lot about his dogs, Bentley and Buckley! Adam has proven he is very versatile in singing various genres: pop, rock, funk, R&B, country, soul, etc. I’m glad he doesn’t stick to only one like some others do. That would be boring. What Adam doesn’t have IMO is a distinctive sound which is what seems to sell recordings, like the whine of a Sam Smith or the twang of a Willie Nelson. I have loved Ted Neeley. I would love to hear Adam do that scream in “Gethsemane” that John Legend was not able to do. |

Happy Star! After reading that post about planks, I am guessing you are not an native English speaker. You must not be, otherwise I don't think you can infer that I am upset because Adam doesn't have a #1 hit. My point was, who cares, what does it matter? I am not angry in the least! He is making millions, way more than many singers who have a #1 hit or two. I like what I like and I could care less about #1. The #1 hits for the last few years are songs that are dreadful for the most part. I prefer Queen's music to almost any of it. I am also not a stooge, nor are the other ladies on here. Maybe it applies to you! As far as this crush business, what are you smoking? When you have no useful things to say, you and Runner keep throwing that out! Unbelievable.!!! I think all of us appreciate the music. I certainly don't lust over a gay gentlemen. That remark is so ridiculous. I am all about the voice and that is what I love about Adam, in addtion to the fact he seems like such a well brought up young man. No lusting involved, sorry!! I am curious about your wording which makes it sound as if you have never seen Freddie in person. Have you been to a Queen concert? I know you have not gone to QAL or you wouldn't make these nonsensical remarks. |

Freddie is regarded as the best male vocalist ever so why should Queen fans do with someone like Lambert who is not even on the same page as Freddie? Queen are short changing there talents with this odd ball Lambert.The first line of this says so much about your understanding of what is and isn't good singing. Their have been plenty of people who could/did/do match Freddie's vocal range and abilities. What a lot of those people don't have is Freddie's ability to write really interesting melody line or have the freedom in there band to go to places that Queen did in the studio, especially in the 70's. What Freddie couldn't do was match Perry's delivery night after night. He could go from amazing to kind I'd average over the length of a tour. He did little to look after his voice and suffered the consequences, whether it was over indulgence or over straning and lack of technical ability. Whether or not you like the sound of Lambert he can't be accused of not being able to sing. . . . Except by you of course. |

Powerless and awful. I hate it.Adam did a totally different version of it, he changes songs so as not to imitate Freddie and as I said before his voice is a totally different type, not made for sounding like Freddie. Seriously can you not understand the difference in voice types as well as the different tone between singers. Adam sang that song in a different style, nothing to do with power, he's known as a vocal powerhouse but he's never going to sound as full voiced as Freddie, his voice just isn't made that way. There's a difference between power and how thick or full someone's voice sounds, they aren't the same thing. Think Freddie v Perry, do they sound like they have the same type of voice to you? |

And the camp Bono comment, one of runners favourite singers, he's gonna love you for that one. No swooning going on here, I simply like his voice and his personality, and people comment on Brian & Roger after the shows, I've personally said what I thought about the show as a whole and their parts in it. The reason people are mostly commenting about Adam here is because you and runner are constantly dissing him so he becomes the focus of the conversation. As to posting in the Queen parts, I do occasionally but someone has usually already answered the questions multiple times, no point adding something for the sake of it. I don't know all the minutiae about them so I don't always have much to add, doesn't mean I don't read those threads though. |

Anastacia can sing much higher the Lambert ever could she is brilliant and i prefer her any day over Lambert. I have her cds and her first 3 albums are awesome. |
snifflese 24.07.2018 17:37 |
I have never listened to her before, so I just picked 5 videos to see. Her voice is good, but it sounds very affected, depending on which song I listened to. Trying to be too soulful or sexy, not quite sure. I didn't like the way she enunciated much. I may not have picked songs where she sings really high, but her upper range sounds kind of weak and she doesn't hit the notes clearly like Adam does. They sound more forced. I do not have have 3 of her albums to choose songs from, but based on these, I am not so sure she can sing higher. I much prefer Adam's voice as hers is somewhat affected and is not what I would say stands out from a lot of other really good singers. I guess to each his own!! |
SweetCaroline 24.07.2018 17:54 |

Anstacia has SOULD in her voice sth LameBird is lacking completely. His mechanic singing is so fucking annoying that it hurts |
snifflese 24.07.2018 19:09 |
She has really fake sounding soul as her singing was pretty affected to me. She is a really good singer, but there are a lot of those people around. For me she wasn't exceptional. I went and listened to 5 songs and that is what I think. I am entitled to my opinion and I wasn't ugly about it like you know who. She just wasn't my cup of tea and to be honest, I am not really fond of female singers. Their voices are brittle and often very shrill. I prefer male voices for some reason and no, Adam DOES NOT sound like a woman even tho" he can sing higher than most of them. Eden Espinoza (I think is her name) played in Wicked and she said Adam could hit notes she could not and she has a really high voice. For me Adam never sounds shrill even at the highest note. It is a round melodic bell tone and most singers can't achieve that! |

Anastacia is suited to rock, her voice is thicker and weighty. Range wise she has slightly less range than Adam in full voice. Adam sings in lots of different ways in each register and they all sound different. Certain types of singing sounds shrill if that's how you want to describe it more than others, but to just say he sounds shrill is ridiculous since you're implying he sings in a high shrill voice constantly. |

No, runner, I love Brian and Roger and their music and musicianship is awesome, but people want to hear the songs SUNG and Brian and Roger cannot sing some of those songs anymore and I am not sure if they ever did. At this point I think it would just be too much for them. These songs require a very special voice and that means Adam. People come to hear all of the band nowadays. Pretty much everyone has embraced Adam. It wouldn't be QAL without him at this point. Concert goers love his voice and comment on it and look forward to hearing him sing, whether or not you believe it! If you haven't been, you don't know how wonderful they sound together. It takes all of them to make QAL what it is now. Brian and Roger are rock icons and everybody loves them and their amazing talent, but they can't do the tour without Adam and the other backing musicians. |

Totally agree with Snifflease. There will be some who go because of Brian & Roger who aren't really into Adam but there's a whole lot more who really like him. I see comments on that all the time and one thing that stands out is how they love the fact he does his own thing with the songs and doesn't try to do an exact copy of the original. The other thing I notice is they all say he isn't a replacement, they accept QAL as a separate entity not a Queen substitute, maybe that's the reason he is so accepted, people aren't comparing just enjoying. |

Oh wait a moment it's nothing like that because your wrong, most of the people who go to the shows go because of the songs, the musicians the production and the atmosphere, they're not suffering the vocalist, if he was as bad and useless as you claim these shows would have died before the last Hammersmith gig in 2012. |

rockchic, I neglected to say why I was posting that link to “Ring of Fire.” I thought it would be self-explanatory that I was using it as an example of how Adam’s voice is NOT “thin.” It is my personal favorite because that performance is what first hooked me on Adam which has lasted 9 years later to this day! I agree with you that what was also so captivating about Adam was his ability to take Simon’s criticism graciously and with humor. What I loved was that despite the comments about never going to Nashville, Adam ended up incorporating a short version of “Ring of Fire” into his Glam Nation tour and ultimately did go to Nashville, performing that very version of ROF in the Ryman Auditorium of all places! |

I didn't watch Idol at the time, only heard of Adam through Queen but I did go back and watch that season and the thing that struck me was his total lack of drama. For someone so theatrical and dramatic in his singing/stage style he was so down to earth and took the whole thing in his stride and laughed things off, I really liked that. |

Also they had a gospel choir singing backing vocals , thus giving him more space to concentrate on just the lead melody line and nothing else. The audience that day were great, and no one had to prove themselves and win anyone over as everyone was behind every performance no matter who they were and what they did. Have you thought that your argument is with Brian and Roger has much as anyone as they are the people who decided on Adam Lambert and they are the ones who feel comfortable with him on stage. Bringing George Micheal into this is futile, there is no way he could stand on stage as a Freddie replacement. That's not what the +vocalist is about and he physically couldn't do the job now anyway |

At that Idol tour the screaming for Adam was deafening, all ages, all genders in that audience. It’s disappointing that his star didn’t rise in the recording industry as much as others, but Adam should be seen live to be truly appreciated. And, icy, that is not “bigging him up.” It’s a fact! Who are these prudes who adored the non-stop stage antics of Freddie, but think that Adam doesn’t have class? |

You always do that with her. She is entitled to think that Actually it is over 170 times that Adam has sung a fantastic version of STL! That is not bigging up. It is our POV.

It's hard to know exactly what he'd have been able to sing of the Queen catalogue, I've never heard him do a rock song but he may have been able to, it just wasn't his usual style of music. Would have been interesting to hear him do some stuff with Queen, I'd have gone to see them if they had toured.rockchic65 wrote:Emotionally wise, yes it was hard for him to sing.

Brian & Roger have had many bad laps of taste over the last 28 years, and do not forget it was Freddie that saved there careers, because they were on the verge of giving it all up.George admitted it was the hardest thing he'd ever had to sing and it's far from the hardest Queen song so not sure how he'd have done with some of the others, they aren't really his style. Why compare people, either voice wise or in any other way, George did things his way, Adam has a different way and as to the in your face part, it's a stage act, he doesn't walk around all day looking and acting the way he does onstage.

I do think Freddie would have preferred George to do Queen the honours rather than Adam. George had more experience of the pop world and Wham were a great 80s group rubbing shoulders with Queen in the charts many times. Lambert is more musicals were George is pop / ballad orientated. Songs like "Your my best friend" "Its a hard life" "Love of my life" are examples of what George would have done brilliantly at. Adam tries his best at it i am sure but sadly he has no substance and sings songs so blank with no feeling to them and to be honest there do not sound as dynamic as Freddie used to deliver them. Still he has had his 15 mins of fame! |

No idea why you keep saying he's just musicals, he hasn't been in a musical since 2008, that's a lot of years and a lot of different styles of music he's done since. Whilst I'm sure George would have done a great job on those songs I've no idea why rubbing shoulders on the charts matters, it makes no difference to singing ability. |

Adam is really sweating and you can see he has gone through the grinder at the end of a show. Singing and having all your muscles clenching in your face and your veins popping out doesn't necessarily mean you are singing with feeling. Fortunately or unfortunately, Adam can hit a lot of notes whether others strain and I think some of you equate that with "soul". To me he emotes many things. Just listen to the breathy, quiet parts of songs that suddently become loud. When he runs up the scale in UP. I don't know what you people aren't seeing. Maybe it is because you have never been to a life show! Adam puts his all into each show and emotes as much or more than other singers, believe me. If he was just a bland, one note singer fans would not keep coming back! |

Rockchic: What i am saying here is that George Michael was the same calibre as Queen and worthy of been on a stage with May & Taylor the same way as Paul Rodgers was. Lambert came from nowhere with no experience and no song writing abilities whatsoever. Singing high notes does not make him a great singer at all. Emotion is more important than screaming like Axl Rose on cocaine. Lambert has really got away with his style and people do not analyse what a bad singer he really is. A few years ago on here i was chatting to a roadie of Queens and he said he was at the mixing desk and Adam sounded ghastly he also admitted to me that Queen are shit with Lambert and that is coming from a roadie ! |

There are tons of vids on YouTube which prove the guy is talking rubbish, he might not like his voice any more than you do but that doesn't make him a crap singer. No idea what you've been listening to but you keep talking high notes like that's all he can do, he doesn't scream high notes throughout a concert, what about the rest of the time? As to experience, he'd been working in the industry since age 18, singing since age 10, worked as a session singer as well as other jobs, how's that no experience? Clearly Brian, Roger and the majority of the fans couldn't care less whether he came from a talent show or wherever, they care if he can deliver, and he can and does every time. |

When American Idol was in full swing, I thought these performance were great. I guess in comparison to everyone else they were, but now they don't seem nearly as good. The ones I still think are excellent are the Mad World, Change is Gonna Come, and Feeling Good. Adam has progressed so far in the last 10 years that I don't feel they really showcase his singing now. There is no comparison between how he sang Whole Lotta Love and how he now performs the Queen songs, To me it just shows how he has nurtured his talent and improved tenfold over the years. These videos are good to see just how far he has come, but are in no way indicative of how he now sings. He did over sing and hit too many crazy high notes which he no longer does .Now his performances are much more nuanced and vastly improved! |

Like you say now his singing is more nuanced and has more finesse. I'd love to see QAL do a cover of WLL, just once, to see how he'd approach the song now.

They aren't pretending to be Queen, they're Queen +, no one expects a traditional Queen gig. IMO that's why this works, they don't even try to do it the same as with Freddie. Lambert has fans of all ages and types not just women, lots of guys go to his solo shows, probably a lot of them gay but so what, bums on seats is what it's about at the end of the day, but the majority of people at the shows are Queen fans, a lot will be casual fans of the greatest hits albums variety but there are some hard core Queen fans there, you only have to read facebook for all the comments saying I hope they do this or that song, one's only hard core fans would ask for.

Your analogies are crappy. QAL is not Queen, which Brian has stated many times. They are not pretending to be anything other than what they are. They wrote a lot of the music and have rights to all of it, so they choose how it is put out there. Right now they want to tour with it! It has been a resounding success and they are having the time of their lives. Long term Queen fans have mentioned how happy they look on stage and they don't recall that ever. I am sure touring with Freddie could be a lot more tedious than with Adam. Freddie didn't sound like the easiest person to deal with. At the end of the day Queen is just not Freddie. That seems to be your perception. He did not write all the music and he wasn't the only person in the band. There were 3 other VERY IMPORTANT people who made up Queen. For me, my fav songs are from Brian, not Freddie. Freddie got a rewrite after he died and that often happens. Just like M. Jackson. It is funny how dying makes you some deity at the end of the day. Some of you folks need to get a grip! This is not Queen, not was it ever meant to be and most of us are extremely happy with QAL! Get over it!! |

Maylor don't pretend to be Queen, Brian specifically said in an interview "I don't know if you can call what we are Queen, but we're some version of it". As to the cake example, obviously I got it, just didn't really care since for one you didn't think of it, just asked someone on facebook if you could use it and regardless what you call them they are still great. I personally couldn't care less if they choose to call themselves Smilebert or similar, I'd still go to see them because for me it's about hearing my favourite music played and sung well period. Two remaining members of the band singing songs that in a lot of cases they wrote or co wrote and certainly played on makes part of Queen and if they choose to still use the name then that's their prerogative, being how they own the right to the name. Freddie may have thought up the name but they weren't his backing band. |

I am not disrespecting Freddie in any way, shape or form. He was amazing and had so many talents, but I am not talking about Queen. All my remarks pertain to QAL which a lot of you totally disrespect. It is bad enough to disprespect Adam, but it is Brian and Roger that deserve all the respect in the world and they don't get it from you lot! How can you disrespect them in the manner YOU DO and on a Queen site! As I said QAL is a different beast than Queen was. It is still Biran and Roger's band and I am sure John has signed off on this, too. They wrote a ton of the music and they can do with it whatever they want. Freddie was NOT the whole band. His solo album wasn't all that, so I imagine he became famous due to the hard work of the other guys in the band. It more than likely wouldn't have worked without all four of them. It isn't always all about Freddie!!! This is a QAL thread. I am not posting on a Queen site and there is nothing dispectful to Freddie anyway. He isn't a God, although some of you act as if he is! I don't need to know the all the little tidbits about Queen to enjoy their music and be thankful they all got together and made fabulous music for us to enjoy decades later. Knowing all the stuff you do, sure detracts from your enjoyment of the here and now. Can't see that being a Queen expert makes anything better.

In my previous post I meant it was the hard work of all four of the orignal members! I forgot to add "including himself:. The point is it wasn't just Freddie writing all the music and being the only one in the band. It was a joing effort and many of you seen to forget or disregard that totally and I don't understand that! |

What is ironic to me is that some Glamberts expect Queen fans to know and care about every little move AL makes...and on Queen boards no less. AL's mother gets married, hey why not link to a picture of that? One example of how things happened on QOL. Yet, some Glamberts can't even be bothered about some things in Queen history. |

Do you not get the difference between a "Queen" thread on Queenzone and a "QAL" thread on Queenzone?? Icy, Adam is a band member and has been for close to 200 concerts and 6 years. Stuff about Adam CAN be posted here. Personally, I wouldn't put anything about his Mom here, but technically, there should be no issue. Don't read here if stuff like that offends you because it is about Adam who is an integral part of QAL. For the 100th time, I DO NOT Have to know all about Queen's back history. Do you understand that? I know which songs I love and have always loved. Nothing has changed in that regard. I know I have always liked Brian's music the best. That is all I need to know!!! I never go to a Queen thread and say anything, but I can post here as I do know quite a bit more about QAL. I have seen them twice, but have never seen Queen. So, I feel more comfortable about discussing QAL. Brian and Roger rock, esp. Brian for me. So happy that they are still performing. They are amazing and I hope to see them again at some point! Queen's history is not going to change anything for me. |

He just doesnt give a flying fuck what Maylor do as he is getting hi money but he clearly stated that Queen without Freddie is over. You do know more about QAL??? YOU hardly know anything about QUeen at all just about their current ladyboy sound raper thats all. So shut the fuck up with your drivel about Freddie who saved your ladyboy's tanking solo career. |

Reading some of these responses has left me curious whether there may actually be a couple of people here who think Adam is the reason the Bohemian Rhapsody movie is coming out later this year, since he's keeping Queen alive. And why do you keep responding to Runner? He has no substantive responses. He's trolling you and laughing his ass off cause he's getting under your skin. Ignore the fool.

Snifflese : Firstly who the fuck do you think you are slagging of Legend Freddie Mercury? He was a legend and he was the only Queen member who had all the fab ideas to get Queen were they are today. Freddie may have been a little difficult to work with but that is only because he cared for the band and there future. You treat Freddie as though he was nothing, Fact, Freddie's song writing gt the band famous and gave them that important break that they needed, You claimed the band were not happy been on stage with Freddie and always serious, well they were very serious in the work they done on stage and they concentrated very much, Maybe now they laugh on stage because they cannot believe that fools like you swallow the crap they offer. You are the doughnut thinking Adam Lambert is king of Queen and Lambert is immortal , what garbage and if you are a teacher i suggest you fuck off back to college and learn some proper rock history on Queen, The band does not revolve around little nancy Lambert in mamas boots. |

snifflese 28.07.2018 16:07 |
Anybody but Adam is the mantra here for some of us. I have heards some awful Queen covers over the years and yet, they get lots of praise from the usual suspects. Not sure why Adam triggers the animus or maybe, if the others sang full time with Queen it would be the same. Somehow, I don't think so, tho. I do think it is because there is a Freddie aspect to Adam and they don't want aybody else to be successful with the band. The hero worship is a little much! Particularly since it is all Freddiecentric, sometimes it seems as if he was the only member of the band. I doubt even Freddie would have been as successful without the other 3. It took all three members to pull it off. |

As to MM etc, it's pretty obvious your only problem is with Adam, apparently the fact Marc has decided to do a Queen covers EP and a Queen themed xmas album, changing the songs his own way and at least in YTMBA has changed the opening lyrics and one or two others doesn't matter one bit, but I can just imagine what you'd have to say if Adam decided to record WWTLF like someone asked him to the other day. |
snifflese 29.07.2018 01:03 |
So, I was wrong about John, big deal. But Brian and Roger started it initially and if they hadn't had a band for Freddie to join, who knows what would have happened. My point is that it was 4 people who put in the work and the creativity and made it what it now is. It just wasn't Freddie. Some of you assume that if Freddie wasn't in the band Queen would be nothing. Nobody knows that, as the other 3 are creative and wonderful musicians. It just irks me that Freddie gets all the credit for everything and that more than likely is just not so, even if he pushed them all to the sidelines with his overwhelming personality. You never know what goes on behind the scenes unless you were one of the band members and nobody here is. Yea, Rockchic it is just Adam, that for whatever reason, they don't like. Anybody else does something and it is just perfectly fine. Another thing that annoys the heck out of me. To each his own. |

Like I said before, Adam is an exciting showman and entertainer with a powerful vocal range. Persona wise, Marc and Paul are blah! They are good singers but have zero personalities. |
Brancelli 29.07.2018 05:23 |
His use of range is extremely good, but his overall measured range is nothing spectacular. But all he needs to do is just scream a falsetto note once or twice, and get into that 6th octave like he probably can. He's not much on falsetto for the high notes, and I can respect that. Wish he had a better lower register too, cause his 2nd octave notes are generally weak. zero personalities, eh? So they are just stiff as boards out there singing like robots? Still would love to hear Marc do "White Queen", it'd be good regardless of personality. And would give Brian a good solo opportunity. |

Lets get this straight, Brian & Roger were in a group called "Smile which lost its lead singer Tim Staffell and to be honest the band were getting nowhere and so when Freddie heard they needed a new singer he begged Brian & Roger he could make a difference and he did for he changed the bands name and designed the iconic Queen crest then they had a couple of bass players that never worked out before the wonderful John Deacon was on aboard and Freddie had a grand plan to get the band into the music industry. Snifflese your Queen knowledge is poor because you seem to know more about Lambert than you do Queen history and that is shameful. If Freddie never came to the rescue of Brian & Roger there would be no Queen and no great music. Brian & Roger would have quit, Roger would have gone back to dentistry and Brian would have carved out a career in astronomy. By the way Lambert is not a showman that word gets used to easily these days. He is only a bog standard singer. He has no personality and sings like he is in church. |

By the way Lambert is not a showman that word gets used to easily these days. He is only a bog standard singer. He has no personality and sings like he is in church.I agree with most of what you said but not all. Adam can and does put on a show just in a totally different way to how Freddie did it. Might not be your thing but lots of people love the way he acts on stage and that word gets used all the time in reviews and not just with Queen, his reviews for his first tour also called him a showman. There's tons of people over the years you could call showman and they're all different and I'd wager some of them wouldn't appeal to you personally but to their fans that's what they are. Robbie Williams? Doesn't appeal to me but gets called a showman all the time. I don't agree it's shameful to not know that much about Queen, some people just don't look into bands and learn their history they just listen to the music. I personally don't know much about a lot of bands/singers I listen to except the odd few, Queen being one of them. I suppose it's whether you personally find them or the singer fascinating enough to want to know about them or just prefer to listen to the music. Either way works, it's just an unusual situation in this case since if Adam wasn't singing for them people wouldn't be on the forum if they weren't interested in knowing about the band so there will be a few who are here mainly because of Adam. Or to put it another way, if Smile had been a fully fledged band for several years and Freddie a solo artist you followed, how much would you have looked into Smile if he started singing with them? |

Would be interesting to know just how high he could go using falsetto but maybe he's never tried pushing that. I think his low register has improved since being with Queen this long, I'd say he can go to A2 ok but it's never gonna be his favourite octave to sing in, his strength is definitely in the higher registers but range isn't the main thing really, it's got to sound good as well, there's singers who can get higher but some don't always sound great once they get into the 6th octave. For me his strength lies in the way he can use his voice rather than just the range he can hit. White Queen is one of my favourite Queen songs, especially the live Odeon one, perfection IMO. |
Star* 29.07.2018 09:29 |
Why do people go on about how high Lambert can screech its not important at all. Many good singers dont use high range to sing a song well. Lambert is very overrated about the high range he screeches and he does sound like a cat having its balls chopped off. |

Range is only important in the sense you have to be able to reach the notes required in each song but there's a lot of people for who range seems to be the most important thing, you only have to look how many range comparison vids there are on YouTube. Adam's own answer to range is "but does it sound good", since in his opinion usable range is more important than the top note you can hit. For me range isn't anywhere near the most important thing but all the things I love about Adam's voice are probably the things that put you and a few others off. |

Look People, I don't hate Freddie. That is ridiculous and obviously your English comprehension is not up to snuff. I think Freddie was amazing, multitalented, unique and the list goes on and on. However, I think too many people think he was Queen. There were 3 other talented people. Say Smile never made it w/o Freddie, but would Freddie have made it w/o them? It was a unique jelling of 4 amazing musicians and maybe that is the reason it worked. It took all 4 of them. You folks never give Brian or Roger any credit. It is like he was the backup for Freddie. That is what bugs me. Freddie can't rise up and sing with them anymore, so I am happy to listen to Adam sing Queen. I get a kick out of watching Brian and Roger. They are unbelievable at their age. And I most prefer Adam's kind of voice, always have. I don't like the deep, raspy typical rock voice. Never really did, but that should be OK, I love classical voices and more pure voices. I love operatic voices like Bruce Dickinson. His voice can soar and it is extremely good. Adam's voice is similar to my kind of voice and he changes the sound of the Queen catalog, but not much. They are still Queen. He doesn't screw around with the songs, he adds a few riffs here and there, but he sings them pretty much the same. I bet if you played a person off the streets one of the QAL songs, they might not know that it wasn't Freddie, that is how little he changes them up. I really bet that would be the case on some of them. Most people are not so attuned to every note as we are. You can pick out Freddie, I can pick out Adam, but I am not sure about Mr Joe Public. They would hear Queen music and assume. I don't think it is the different for anyone but people on here. I really am not interested much in back history. I like what I like. I don't know much about my other fav bands, but I either like them or I don't. It is enough for me to just enjoy them. I know more about Adam because he is the most recent and I followed him on Idol and the internet makes learning about someone much easier. If there had been internet back then, I would know more about Queen. Of that I am positive. Thanks for the history lesson. |
SweetCaroline 29.07.2018 13:20 |
No one hates Freddie! That is something conjured up in weak minds who seem to worry that the guy who died prematurely over 20 years ago is in danger of losing his legacy because someone new is touring in his place, which is ridiculous. Freddie’s legacy is more than secure and no one can change that so YOU need to stop being so insecure! |
snifflese 29.07.2018 13:29 |
I thought that was a fabulous video. Freddie was out there and unapologetic and the whole band embraced the craziness. Their videos are iconic because they are different. They are theatrical. They just don't stand there and sing as that is boring and they were anything but boring. Why you are offended and call QAL theatrical,as if it is something awful, is another puzzler for me. They always have been theatrical. I guess just Freddie can be like that, right. Adam does the threatrics in a different way, but there still is that zany quality which makes Queen, Queen. You don't like some of the things he says or does, but if Freddie were here today who knows how he would express his sexuality. You might be surprised with what came out of his mouth. If Freddie can't be here to sing, I still want to see QAL and hear their music. I think Adam sings extremely well and respects the integrity of the music and brings that zany quality. Brian and Roger get to still enjoy what they love best and seem to be having a ball, so if I am the "evil one" for applauding them, so be it. You can stay home and watch your videos. To each his own. |

I understand "Runner" when he says he hates Lambert for turning Queen into a joke because they are a massive embarrassment now. Brian & Roger are past caring about the band now and are just out for the money before they die.They aren't in the least embarrassing, surely all the comments and reviews tell you that, where have you seen anything aside from a couple of people on here saying that? And you have clearly taken my words out of context, nowhere have I said they laugh at him because he looks stupid, I said he makes people laugh because he's fun and doesn't mind sending himself up about what he wears. The headline of this review sums the show and what people feel about it up - Lambert is utterly respectful of Freddie Mercury's position in the eyes of fans, and chooses to have fun with his role rather than try to imitate the late singer. He's well aware you can't be a replacement for Freddie so he does things his own way and that and the fact he is so respectful means people don't compare they just take it for what it is. Nowhere is any of that an embarrassment. |

It’s more than obvious that these Adam critics need to go to a live QAL show in order to feel the joy and energy these 6 talented guys generate together over two and a half hours. The spirit of Freddie as well as Freddie himself is present in the music as well as the actual images projected. Get a life you guys! Queen’s legacy is in good and capable hands! |
Star* 29.07.2018 15:09 |
Anyone is getting into Queens nest and now you say 6 guys on stage! Sound like a right freak circus to me. Queen are not what direction Lambert is leading them into. They have been mislead by him and my god Roger would not have done this 35 years ago if the same situation had occurred. Brian on the other hand is very naive. |

Can't see any reason to tour if you don't want to with that kind of worth. Maybe it's just possible they actually have fun and enjoy what they do. |

Well the reason i have never attended a Queen show since 1986 is because you get the feeling something crucial is missing. I would feel terribly disappointed and ripped off. Many of the old fans aged around 50+ would feel like myself as they grow up supporting Freddie & the band. To shun the old fans like Queen have is in my opinion shameful yet they expect all support when they release anything. Queen do not need Adam to keep the band alive because there is umpteen Queen tribute bands around the world doing it every night, The Beatles never hunted for a john Lennon replacement as they had more sense. Queen now look cheap and tacky and you may as well kiss that legacy bye bye as Adam has screwed that up big time. |

They need a fronman if they are to continue touring, obviously they could have just retired (which they didn't want to do) or carried on with solo projects and Roger still does that in between tours but maybe they wanted to play together. Why would they want to stop realistically if they can still have people coming to see them, they clearly love what they do, musicians generally don't play because they have to it's a passion and actually I don't think they expect anything, they just do what they do and it's up to the individual if they choose to buy things or support them. Not expecting you to go to a show, clearly it's not your thing but there's loads of our age group who do go to these shows and lots have seen Freddie live as well. It's not for everyone but there's no way it's done any harm to their legacy, it's just another chapter in their career. |
SweetCaroline 29.07.2018 18:19 |
I think Brian and Roger were ready to sign Adam on the dotted line on May 20, 2009 after the Idol Finale they were so excited about him. But they took their time and didn’t rush into something they might regret later. When Adam survived in front of 250,000 cheering people in Kiev Square 3 years later, that was a pretty good test. |

Bigging their ego up.Don't comment on subjects you have no knowledge of. It makes you appear even more stupid than you already are. It is well documented who Spike is and his long running job as keys player for both Queen and Brian May (in the past) Neil gets a spot in the show where he stands front and centre, spot lit. Tyler plays Roger's kit, providing the second drummer part in the drum battle, during which towards the end I was given free rein to play what he wanted to play, again under his own spot light. Each of these three are also given a big intro by Roger during the show, but hey even though you and nappy star haven't been to a show you should both feel free to impart your wisdom |

Freddie has the reputation of best Male singer ever for a reason and that is because he is. He can sing anything with emotion and really puts his soul into it something Lambert has trouble doing. I am so so proud to support and Freddie for over 44 years he is the greatest ever and no one comes close to his technical brilliance. |

When I do what sweetcaroline/CNB has done, then you might have a point. But you don't have any point. You don't see me posting every little tweet about Freddie, even using a band member's son's wedding to whine about how I bet if AL was there to sing a certain song. Any excuse to put AL in the discussion, someway, somehow. I don't even think Felix was or is close to AL, but hey sweetcaroline gotta fit AL in there somewhere/somehow, even with things that don't involve him. Gotta keep the thread going and AL's name out there. I bet you are secretly gloating Freddie isn't around. But his music will live on long after AL's is doing and likely will do. You sound so bitter about Freddie's legacy. You are borderline vindictive about it. I will never forget you saying on QOL AL doesn't get enough credit, and you can't even be decent about Freddie on Queen boards. AL would be fortunate if he ever had a tenth of what Freddie did. Too bad for you, AL doesn't have it. No damn wonder why you are bitter. |

Icy, what is the matter with you? One of your snarky buddies on here said thank goodness Adam wasn’t at that wedding. And that’s why I posted about Adam singing at a wedding. Are you able to follow the discussion or are you too busy thinking of ways to demean and insult me? Why don’t you go back to QOL and stay there? I won’t be back probably ever because I am banned for a year because I posted an article that was different but YOU called it a rehash. You should be happy I’m not there but instead you want to give me grief here. You are not only obsessed with Freddie, but God help us you seem to be obsessed with me! |

You may not agree with Icy, but can you at least acknowledge she? listens with an open mind and doesn't resort to unwarranted insults? You could actually have a decent conversation where you agree to disagree. She's given this thing a chance. Most things don't work for her, some things do.

Your over the top love for Adam makes it difficult to like him, even when you do post video evidence of something that might be impressive. |

The only person who is bitter and nasty and so obsessed with someone is YOU, Icy. You just make up crap! The idea of my gloating that Freddie isn't here is just crazy. I can't even imagine someone thinking such a crazy thing. Adam's legacy is still being formed and I don't worry at all about it. He is a hard worker and it will be what it will be. I just get tired of everyone slamming him and Brian and Roger (and on a Queen board, no less!!). Freddie's legacy is golden and will never tarnish. QAL has gained Freddie fans and adulation, what is the problem with that? You are so concerned that anyone might be perceived to sing the songs well, that you go crazy over the idea . Your posts border on demented at times, along with the other two nasties. No one will ever reach the status of Freddie, but we can enjoy QAL and you don't want anyone to do that. That is your problem, not mine. I can enjoy both Queen and now QAL and it is a wonderful thing. And just like a lot of people have said, I bet Freddie and Adam would get along like a house on fire! I just really think so! Keep your snarky comments to yourself and add something positive to the conversation occasionally. That would be a good thing for a change instead of always getting on people for stupid things and calling them out. |

To me, this is one of the finer moments of Adam's stint with the remaining members of Queen: link I won't get mad if anyone disagrees, and it makes no difference in my life whatsoever. My ears enjoyed it. The person who disagrees . . . well, their ears were repulsed by it. So what. It is what it is. I can't make you like it. You can't make me dislike it. Runner and happy will insult. I'll simply ignore. Icy will most likely find the video unsatisfactory. I'll smile, and nod at the disagreement, and refrain from an insulting response. |

Are you able to follow the discussion or are you too busy thinking of ways to demean and insult me? Why don’t you go back to QOL and stay there? I won’t be back probably ever because I am banned for a year because I posted an article that was different but YOU called it a rehash. You should be happy I’m not there but instead you want to give me grief here. You are not only obsessed with Freddie, but God help us you seem to be obsessed with me!I just quoted your post from the previous page. You linked to the wedding pic, you were the one to say I bet if AL was there he would have sang a certain song. Do you forget what you post and deflect on me? I think it's clear you do both that on purpose. Why should I go to QOL and stay there? I have every right to be on both boards, but I know that pisses you off. You are banned for a year! But you blame me for you ban once again, my God do you take any responsibility at all for your actions?! You posted pretty much the same article four times. And then you went on a bitch fest saying AL isn't accepted on QOL because he is gay. No wonder why you are banned. Good fkn riddiance to you after that. I'm sure you will be back when your ban is up. I can see it now, snarkiness from you right away about Thunder straight away as you did as soon as your last ban was over. . How does your mind work, sweetcaroline/CNB? You play the victim. I dare say you get your buddy snifflese to defend you. No, you are the obessed one. One moment posting another pic from a wedding, and then betting if AL was there he would have sang a particular song. Felix Taylor isn't even close to AL. You can't help but to interject AL any way you can. You don't see anything wrong with what you do. You'd rather play the victim, and blame me like clockwork. Nice try. Major fail on you...and major shame on you too. |

I have a terrible reputation in Glamberts circles. I'm lumped in with runner, happystar and even compared to Trump. If I didn't tune into Q+AL at all, I'd be bitched at for that. But there is some things I like, other things not at all, but I'm not a all n or out type of person. Believe me or not, I'm not that way even about Freddie ;-). Thanks again.

Sorry it was such an affront to you that not everyone feels the way you do on Queen boards about Queen and Freddie shoved in your face. Comments like that don't help. Goes to show how entitled you really are when it comes to AL. Sorry dear, I won't be keeping my snarky comments to myself, especially for you, when you have made your fair share and personal ones at that.

We will just have to agree to disagree. I don't care if you hate everything, but you are so nasty to people when they don't know unimportant facts about Queen and truly you are dreadful to Caroline and also to me. Just leave us alone in our ignorance and complain about someone else. Let people link and post without you being the moderator, because you are not here to police this thread. You don't need to tell her what she can and can't post on a QAL board. It isn't hurting anyone. You never make snarky remarks to Runner or Happy Star and quite often seem to be agreeing with them. Why don't you tell them to blank off with their filthy language. That might actually be helpful! They are a real problem. Just scroll past Caroline and her links if they upset you. Just scroll past me, as neither of us want to talk with you anymore. It is just not productive. |

I think that's something every person who claims to be a Queen fan should know... especially on Queen boards. Do you not get that? Remind me again who came here from the get go wanting me banned from both Queen boards? Simply because your buddy was banned and I was not. Who was it that said I posted about my homophobia experiences for attention? That was you dear. Not the once have you ever said sorry or even seemed to be sorry for it. Who is it here that blames me for bans? Look above, that's sweetcaroline. You both have been nasty as hell at me also, not that you both could ever admit to it. Funny about you and sweetcaroline. You both have said you would ignore my posts, never have managed to do so. Oh you want me to tell runner and happystar that the language they use is awful? Nope, I don't owe you any favors to be blunt. You lump me in with them, which is ironic since they rarely reply to my posts. Yes, I reply to them at times, is that a black mark against me now?

Bottom line: whether on QZ or QOL forums, if you don’t approve of or can’t stand the QAL collaboration, you should have the good sense and common courtesy to not post nasty comments there and let the people who do like it post in peace instead of constant confrontation about it. It’s disgusting to see so-called Queen fans deriding Brian and Roger along with Adam. About the gay thing, there must be a lot of people who are super sensitive about it. Freddie was gay and Adam is gay! So what? Why call Adam derogatory names about it and say he is disgracing the music and the legacy when HIS stage actions are 100% mild compared to what Freddie used to do. |

Oh so called Queen fans again. Huh. At least most of us know Freddie didn't wear the crown and cape at Live Aid, and know the age he was when he passed. Sure, keep on your usual about so called Queen fans, granny Glambert. You are pissed because you aren't on qol doing your usual obviously. Yes thanks, I know Freddie was gay. Freddie had it much harder than AL ever did. If God forbid, AL is ever terminally ill and hounded by the paparizzi, then you and snifflese can cry and grind your teeth about how AL is treated. Until then...fuck right off. You really don't let it sink in that Freddie was an original showman writing, producing and performing classic songs for decades in some cases. Sorry, not sorry, AL isn't in that league, he is unlikely to ever be in that league. There a world of difference between Freddie and AL. You make it seem because both of their sexualities, and because AL is singing Queen songs we are all supposed to fawn over AL on Queen boards. How bitter and jealous were when Gaga and Nate joined Brian and Roger for one song? Very much so. You are such a hypocrite sweetcaroline/CNB. Really it ozzes from your fingertips. Spin your lies about why you are banned, come on, answer it. You may have fooled snifflese as to why you are banned, but you aren't fooling me.

You never posted anything new about QAL, always responding negatively to what I and others posted. I remember you getting banned once for a month.

Your argumenr that it is intentional is bullshitIf you and happystar actually had these opinions after going to a show your argument might carry more weight. Hearing the band in an arena playing through 120k of PA with a bass end that actually vibrates like it should, mids that actually fill the space and produce audible volume with highs that are clarion clear gives a very different sound to listening to a wildly compressed digital overload coming through your phone or shit laptop speakers. Listening in that way gives you no idea of the power the band created, on any given night, and also gives you no idea how Lamberts voice sits in that vast sound. I take it you probably never saw Rush live, go and listen to a Rush show off Youtube and comment on Geddy Lee's vocals on a Rush forum You and nappyfuck are so full of hate toward someone other than Freddie fronting a Queen or Queen+ show and so inept at logical educated thought that all you can do is type insulting childish drivel. |

If you were a happy person, even on the internet, you wouldn't be blaming me for when you do wrong. Somehow, it's easier for you to always blame me. The amount of things and the way you have blamed me, it's twisted actually. The way you use Queen boards to defend and promote AL is mind boggling. Every excuse you can think of to complain about his career and the other careers which is more popular than AL. I don't think you can handle anything different than what you are invested in. You bit the hands that feeds you, shot yourself in the foot...and that my dear you have yourself to blame for. You cannot admit to being wrong. That's your mentality, not mine. You have 10 months until your ban from QOL is over. Maybe in that time you can learn QOL members aren't the opponets you think they are. If you ever go back, and I bet you will, try to change the way you do things. It's clear though you haven't changed here in near a year of posting here on QZ. At least I have a mid of my own, and I don't have to rely on tweets, articles, or snifflese to do the talking for me, the way you do. I don't live for forums. I think you put too much for AL it borders on creepy at times. |

The article I was banned for had videos included that were not posted previously but you and the cranky moderator never bothered to read it. Nothing has changed in 6 years for fans who dare to find the Queen forums through the wonderful QAL collaboration. It would be understandable if Freddie were still alive but some people seem to think he is still going to be reincarnated! |

You really have it out for me and that person, don't you? Exactly the way you act when you can't get your own way. Sorry, I'm calling bullshit on what you are saying. You are trying to excuse it by saying it had videos that wasn't in the other links? Then why could you not just post the videos? Actually, some things have changed. I never expected to like AL singing Save Me...and I do. Another poster changed his mind very recently. But you would like others to believe that there is nothing good about QOL and it's members. You would think that because you very rarely posted outside of Q+AL and AL threads. Moaning about Sam, Adele and Trump as well...that's all you ever did you hardly even posted about Freddie and Queen unless you compared it to Q+AL. You are the one and actually only one who has never changed. You actually dig your heels in, you are proving my point here. Again, you don't seem to realise what a legend Freddie was and why he is so admired and respected. No one expects Freddie to be reincarnated for Pete's sake. His music is living on and it's not because of Lambert singing songs. It's been there as a part of the musical landscape for years now and it will be after Q+AL is over. You don't seem to accept that, let alone understand it. Hell, if I wanted a Freddie clone, I'd be a huge MM fan. I've come to like MM, but I don't need or want a Freddie clone. There was only one Freddie and that was Freddie. |

Hearing the band in an arena playing through 120k of PA with a bass end that actually vibrates like it should, mids that actually fill the space and produce audible volume with highs that are clarion clear gives a very different sound to listening to a wildly compressed digital overload coming through your phone or shit laptop speakers. Listening in that way gives you no idea of the power the band created, on any given night, and also gives you no idea how Lamberts voice sits in that vast sound. I take it you probably never saw Rush live, go and listen to a Rush show off Youtube and comment on Geddy Lee's vocals on a Rush forum You and nappyfuck are so full of hate toward someone other than Freddie fronting a Queen or Queen+ show and so inept at logical educated thought that all you can do is type insulting childish drivel. |

Don't think he needs a number 1 album or single in the UK to sing Queen songs on tour. His performances aren't aimed at the UK, in fact they aren't aimed at anything it's just how he is, and he doesn't copy anyone other than being influenced by other artists the same way all artists are. |

He's said he won't be doing EDM so that's a bonus but it sounds like he's still doing a mix of other genre's and yeah will be interesting to see how much influence Queen will have had. He did get asked and said it won't be like Queen sound wise but I suspect he may have been influenced with the way they put songs together. I do like some of his solo stuff, a handful of each album but they aren't my favourite genre. |

I agree he is shoving his gayness into everyones throar. I have nothing against gays but cant stand it when all they do us advertise their orientation. In Lamebirds case he comes across as a stupid arrogant twat acting as if he was a rock Star which he clearly isnt. Everything about him is artificial. He seems to gave injections in his lips as well.

Sad for him he just May & Taylor's bait to put money into there accounts. i wonder if they get more money than him?He's neither goth nor a transvestite lady boy and back when Freddie was around it wasn't easy to be out as a gay so although Freddie was theatrical and slightly camp he wasn't able to fully put it out there. These are different times and having been out since the beginning there's no reason for Adam to try to be anything other than he is, he's no reason to hide his sexuality. He plays up the camp onstage for fun and the audience don't seem to have any problem with it. Adam is currently doing frontman duties so of course he has to put on a show, what's he supposed to do, stand at the back of the stage and sing without drawing any attention to himself, they may as well just play their original cd's if that's the case and not bother having a singer at all. If you had bothered to watch a show you would know Adam doesn't hog the limelight and make it all about himself at all, quite the opposite in fact, he shares the stage and interacts with the guys a lot, that's what makes it fun and part of what people love about these shows. |

Add that to their unique sound and Freddie's killer voice, how could they not be massive. But he tragically died and time moves on, Brian & Roger still want to play, as Freddie might have done had it been one of the others who died, so I'm happy they can still do it and that people are still wanting to see the shows and hear their amazing music live, I really can't see any negatives to that situation. |

I resent when I am constantly being attacked for not being a Queen fan instead of people being happy that I have become such a devoted fan even if it is through their association with Adam. I didn’t have time for any musical groups in the ‘70’s. I got married in 1970, had my son in 1971 and my daughter in 1973. When she was 2 weeks old my young husband died of a massive heart attack. Obviously I was pretty busy after that. I first saw the BoRhap music video in the 80s on MTV and saw them perform the first time during the live Live Aid broadcast. I’m thrilled that I have caught up with various groups later in life when I have more time to truly appreciate them. I’m sure if I had seen Freddie live, I would have totally flipped over him. I also regretted never seeing Elvis live. When he died in 1977 I was mad at myself for not trying to see him when he had toured in my town just before that. My kids were only 6 and 4 when that happened. So icy et al give me a damn break! I have loved every live show I have seen since that time when my kids got older: Boy George/Culture Club, Duran Duran (3 times), U2 (4 times), Loretta Lynn, Garth Brooks, Leonard Cohen, Foreigner, Yanni, Donny & Marie (2 times), Captain & Tennille, Liberace, Sting, Def Leppard, KISS (have I forgotten anyone?), oh yes, Queen Extravaganza, Adam solo (5 times) and QAL (3 times). Is that enough to qualify me as a good judge of live shows and performers when I say over and over again that the QAL show is MAGNIFICENT? |

I'm standing by that because you rarely discuss Queen with Freddie, and you sure don't care or are even bothered to look up things about the band. You posted a Queen video yesterday just to prove Freddie did actually wear white shorts...as if you have to educate anyone here about that. At the same time, you take any chance you can get to put AL into a discussion...take Roger's son's wedding, you link to a pic and the first thing out of your mouth you bet if AL was there he would have sang an Elvis cover. Just goes to show how infatuated you are. You wanted him there to sing and be praised for it, apparently. Genuinely sorry about your husband passing away. I do admire your determination to come through that hard time. You spoke about your grandkids a few times, and I know you love them and they bring you much happiness. I don't owe you a break however. You never gave me one. For years now you have been saying I'm negative, miserable, etc and your latest is comparing me to Trump. Oh and once again, you blame me for what is your current year long ban from. QOL. So sorry, you get no break from me. You have treated Queen boards and some of it's members like crap for years now. You are unwilling to take any responsibility for your own actions. If you messed up a few times and if you had said sorry, that would be one thing. But you never have said sorry and you made it clear a few weeks back here that you feel you have nothing to be sorry for on QOL. You can't admit to being and doing wrong, here and on QOL. Much easier for you to play the victim who almost everybody has wronged...that's the way you think. You have a year long ban to show for it right now.

Someone else said they were glad Adam wasn’t at that wedding and I responded that if he was there, he might have sung that Elvis song. The tweet about the wedding was from Brian and he wouldn’t have tweeted it if it was private. Yes, you have caused me (and many others) much trouble over the years with your ridiculous remarks.Yes, you have done wrong. Seriously, can you not see it? Spam, promontion, homophobia claims, shit stirring are just a few of the things you have done wrong. But oh no, you have done no wrong...EVER. Who the hell are you trying to fool? I know you have done wrong, even in your last posts over there where you put AL is not accepted by QOL members because of his sexuality. That's wrong, that's fucked up actually. No, you linked to the wedding pic first and why? Because apparently you wanted AL to be there...not only as a guest, but to sing. You grabbed on to someone elses post to promote AL. Stop blaming me for your actions. You are histronic. You have blamed me every time ( what is it now, three or four bans you have now) you have ended up banned and those 'troubles' of others for the last three or four years. My God. WTF is wrong with you? If you have proof of it me being the reasons for what you blame me for, post it. If you have no proof, STFU about it. You were told your ban from nearly a year ago wasn't my fault by the admin over there, yet you still blame me. Are you that resentful and hateful towards me? I think you are. |

The QOL Lamebird section has completely died - just proof that it is a flovour of the month and soon just a sad unnecessary footnote in Queen history. I think Maylor will make an apology in a few year als "What were we thinking being so disrespectful with this guy" Mark my words |

You two are disgusting!! Why don't you just leave the people alone who are happy with Qal? You don't have to rain on their parade and be so ugly. I see Icy is over on the dark side, just like on Qol. I will say it is a sad day over on QOL when someone gets banned for posting some link more than once, when there were horrible things said about Adam. Since the mod hates him, I guess that is par for the course. I am also not surprised that it was Icy who notified them that Caroline had done that. She like a rat terrier on Caroline just like she is here. I don't understand why she cares about what is linked. She is not the moderator, If she doesn't like it, she can scroll. Leave people alone, Icy!! As far as the homophobia, you have your head so far up your butt, you just can't see things they way they are. I and many others certainly feel that Adam's AMA performance just about blew his career. He was yanked off of one show (although he went on another) and has never sung on a Christmas show, done an Anthem at a game or many of the things other Idol people were doing and not just the winner. I think that had he not sung that sung and performed like that (obviously his choice, but the consequences were due to homophobia) his career would have had a different trajectory. Whether that is good or bad, I don't know, but it would have been different, I am sure of that. Adam has recently opened up a little about homorphobia and said things like that himself, there were obstacles that now aren't as much of a problem for artists starting out. And before you scream about Freddie's obstacles, we know how awful it was for him. No history lesson needed. But you just told Caroline, homophobia is an excuse, so I am mentioning that it hasn't been all daisies for Adam. Also there were quite a few homophoic posts on QOL of which nothing was ever done. But let someone post something more than once, and that is truly grounds for banning. The banning was because it was a Glambert. The rest of you people can be pretty ugly, although this place takes the cake and there seems to be no moderation here! Talking about shit stirring, Your fingers are BROWN, Icy. Read all your long diatribes and then see the fairly mild, normally short responses from Caroline and any idiot can see who the instigator is. If you wonder why this bothers me so much, I used to teach and if there is one thing I hate, it is a bully and you have struck me as one for years and Caroline is always the person you pick on and have formany of those years. Mind your own business and we would all be fine here. She has her views, you have yours. If you, Runner, and Happy can say your nasty crap, why can't someone link to an article or youtube? At least she isn't using filthy language and berating people and the band. Who is the problem, HUH? |

Thanks, snifflese! Icy and the Milkman have been the bait and switch team over there. After I was banned they went on for pages and pages about Adam is no longer listed on Warner Bros. sites but that was great because, as you said, the mod hates him. I was posting at the Freddie Biopic thread about an article on homophobia and the mod moved it to the Adam thread. AngelR’s post can be seen on page 199, which icy quickly jumped all over. The article I was banned for is on page 201. |

Did it upset your little feelings A is no longer with WB? And you weren't there to defend him? Because that's what it seems like. I notice how you don't mention your wrong doing in staying AL isn't accepted because of his sexuality. Are you ashamed of yourself how many times you have calmed homophobia regarding AL? You gave those excuses time and time again when his music wasn't played, sold or as popular as some other artists. Methinks you dug your own hole over there. You still are digging away here. What do you hope to do? The wrath of Glamberts coming down on me? People to take your side? You not to be called out on your absolute bullshit? You want snifflese to defend you n QOL? Something is very wrong with you, I think. It's unsettling to watch, creepy at times. |

You had it out for me here since you very first post. But you couldn't leave that alone, could you? You are also a hypocrite. Sweetcaroline is the person who do no wrong in her own eyes or yours. I call bullshit on that, because I know better. But you keep on telling yourself and trying to tell others that she is innocent when she wasn't. Glambert code, gotta stick up for each other, no matter what. Not getting into the homophobia discussion with you, since you said when I talked about my personal experiences, it was to attention seek.

There is no meltdown, Icy unless it is on your part. You just don't for some reason get it, but bullies never do. I have read on QOL for a long time and you hounded Caroline over there just like here. Now you have carried it to QZ. What is it you don't like about her? There must be something to always have your knickers in a twist about her and now me, because I keep bringing it up to you. No matter what she says or does or doesn't post, you call her out and when she responds, you go on about homophobia and bans and bigging Adam up. I could write your post for you at this point. Why can't you guys just ignore? I know she would love to ignore you. And NO, I have never met Caroline, nor talked to her, nor do I know anything more than you do about her. I just get sick over how she is treated by you for no reason. There is no mod here and no one appointed you. So, just be quiet about it. If you can ignore the vile crap that Runner and Happy post (and now you even agree with them and act friendly!!), what Caroline says or links to, is pretty benign. But that is just the same behavior you had on QOL. All the while pretending to be open minded, yea, right! That is perfectly fine, but you always pretend otherwise, but get your digs in all over the place. Leaving her and me to our own devices without your input, would be really nice, We are all grownups and can mind our own business. That would be lovely! |

You have done it since you became a member and started posting. Nope, wasn't me who carried things from QOL to here after sweetcaroline aka CNB ended up banned from QOL. That's her, lay the blame on me, must in case you missed it. I hate the lies and untruths she spreads about me. She must get a kick out of it at the same time hoping for a pity party. Which you invited yourself to the latter. I will not take orders or even wishes from you. Sorry, not sorry. You moan about no mod here when you have been harsh yourself. You don't see anything wrong with sweetcaroline blaming me, because you believe what she says. Why can't she post 'proof' that it's because of me that I'm to blame for her bans, and others like she is trying to protray here? If she has no proof, then she should STFU about it. Three of her bans she has laid the blame fully on me. She's banned for 10 more months right now give or take, maybe in the meantime she will realize where and how she went wrong. But hey, her own words she has nothing to be sorry for and never did anything wrong. And you believe that, hook, line and sinker. You don't mind your own business about me, now to do you? Pretending I'm open minded? You know my thoughts on Q+AL and not much else, so your judgement is clouded. |

I am not sure how Adam's situation equates with yours in any way, shape or form. I never said that about you. What I DID say was I don't understand how someone can experience homophobia or anything bad and then go and bully someone else. I would think one might try not to do that, since he would know how it felt. There should be more empathy for a bullied person, if you had experienced something bad. As usual you either didn't understand what I said, or you just twist it, which seems to happen often. I have empathy for Caroline, for example, as many people seem to pick on her, but you are the worst offender. Sorry, but that is how I see it. I hate to see people ridiculed and called nasty names for any reason. Hence I can't stand Runner and Happy. I just don't find that any of you three make this a better place. I fully believe that people who might like to post won't, because of all the nastiness. That is sad to me. |

You were pissed off because your friend was banned...and instead of me. You did that from you very first post. Yes, I have been harsh. I have admitted to it. She never has and likely never will admit to being wrong and doing things wrong. You are just the same, cause she has you wrapped around her finger.

How ashamed i am of those two (May & Taylor.)You are unbelievably narrow minded and forgetful. Think back to the early 70's. Elton John, Marc Bolan, David Bowie, Dave Hill and many more all wore high heels effeminate clothing and in many cases acted/played up the gay image or were just plain androgynous. What about the image Queen portrayed around the first two albums Add to those, Kiss, The New York Dolls, Roxy Music and a great many others As for your gay comments about Lambert, coming from someone who bats for the same team your comment is a jealousy bitch fest because you see AL as standing in Freddie's spot light. Your viewing this with the mind of a adolescent who is fixated on one person Yet again you don't sound like much of a genuine Queen fan, just a Freddie follower. Put it this way, if Freddie was the singer in another band and Queen had a different singer, in an alternative history, you wouldn't have noticed Queen at all. |

Care to link some information about all these protests, I must have completely missed those articles over the last six years. The only protest I know of was for Adam's solo show back in 2010 and a petition to have him banned from playing a gig, solo again, in singapore, which incidentally failed. He managed to survive America back in 2010 don't think there'll be much of a problem now, things have improved thankfully. |

Rockchic you are so narrow minded and ignore all the negatives that have happened to your so called legend.

I find it so hard to understand what folk see in him, am i missing the vital ingredient here? Seen lots of footage of him but still do not get it and why people swoon over him, i mean his solo stuff is weak and he is only popular cos he sings Queen songs but that is it, Maybe when Queen are done he will piss Meatloaf fans off next lol |

Vocal Harmony Yes we know the glam stars wore high heeled boots but Lambert makes sure his sexuality is at the front of the queue before the music, The glam stars were in an era that was colourful and glitter was the norm back then, now Lambert does himself a disservice with his sexuality trying to get more and more gay but he cant, we know he is one fag hag and many straight acting gay mens worse nightmare. |

happystar wrote: Rockchic you are so narrow minded and ignore all the negatives that have happened to your so called legend. You know a legend is someone who had talent and charisma like Liberace, Freddie Mercury, John Lennon , but not Adam. I find it so hard to understand what folk see in him, am i missing the vital ingredient here? Seen lots of footage of him but still do not get it and why people swoon over him, i mean his solo stuff is weak and he is only popular cos he sings Queen songs but that is it, Maybe when Queen are done he will piss Meatloaf fans off next lolI think you've misunderstand the definition of narrow minded and I'm not ignoring negatives I just don't see any. I don't know if your're missing something it's more just a taste thing, he's not for you, we get it, there's people I just don't get what all the fuss is about but the difference is I just accept the fact they aren't for me and ignore them I don't keep going and commenting negatively about them to their fans since I can accept everyone is different and likes different things, and just because they don't resonate with me doesn't mean there's anything wrong with them. |

There's no one way or right way to be gay, they come in all different types just the same as straight people do and as has been pointed out before it's a stage act, he plays up the camp for comedic affect and judging by all the people laughing it works. Have you seen and heard him when he's not on stage or when he's in interview? |

I'm just so thankful artists like Freddie, Bowie, EJ and so many more broke barriers during their careers. I strongly believe that because of them, they helped change the musical landscape. |

@runner I don‘t believe you. And I don‘t care, if you like Lambert‘s voice or the fact that Brian and Roger chose him as their singer. You can criticize that, if you want to. But you should be aware, that some of your comments clearly indicate, that you have problems with Lambert being a more feminine gay AND the fact, that he shows it. OK. Many men are unconfortable with fem gays. The problem here is -and that‘s the reason, why I called you out for it- that you are regularly using homophobe insults (Ladyboy for instance) or doing sexual references. When you, as so often, compare is voice like a sound of a „goat being raped“ it strongly indicacates, that you have a problem with his sexuality. As well when you criticize the man for his clothes on stage: you always criticize it, when you think it‘s too feminine (You commented on his look in a video of TSMGO, that he looks like a woman.) I do think, that people can criticize his costumes. Although I don’t give 2 fux ;) about them. I didn‘t give one fuck about Freddie‘s cloth either, which were as theatrical as Lambert‘s. At least, that‘s what I thought, when I saw him back in the day. But your comments are only hateful, full of sexual references and too often without any truth to it. If you don‘t want to look like a homophobe asshole, you should better watch your words. |

Look at this old video of Freddie. It’s great! It’s fun! link BUT: my friends and I thought he was completely ridiculous back in the days. Yes, we did. We were laughing our butts off though. He wasn‘t the legend, that he has become through his early death. He was only the frontman of a rockband, who made great music, but wasn’t for everyone. And many people did criticize him hard for his choices. You know that. Just imagine, what some people here would write, if Lambert did anything like this now. These posters already seem to get sick by half a kilt over trousers (looks like a woman?). Or a bike on stage. Maybe we all should keep in mind, that all Freddie wanted to do, was to ENTERTAIN. and becoming a legend and make money ;) And his music is still entertaining millions of people. Also on stage, performed by his old buddies Bri and Rog and by Lambert. And by all the flaws he has, he must have balls of steel, that he dared to take on that job. Maeve we all should keep this in mind: it’s only entertainment. |

Today they say , that it is fitting for Queen. Because Freddie had established the over the top ridiculous performances. It somehow belongs to Queen. Some still have insecurities and don’t like it of course. But that’s a part of pushing bounderies, as Queen has always done. |

He's not unstable with his future but why should he stop working with Brian & Roger when they clearly love it and the fans are constantly asking for more. It would be pretty ungrateful of him to just drop them now when they obviously want to carry on, nothing to do with being scared, he's no idiot and he knows he'll always be able to find work in entertainment, he's already said he want's to do other things besides singing anyway and he's been in the recording studio since getting back from the tour, how's that not getting on with his own career? As to what he wears onstage, none of it is any more theatrical than Freddie chose to wear and no one other than you and runner seem to care, it certainly doesn't seem to get mentioned on YouTube vids or in facebook comments by the huge majority of people. |

The problem here: Calling Lambert „ trans ladyboy“ is homophobic. And if there was any official controll on this forum, some of your comments could even lead to more serious legal trouble, do you know that? But that’s yours and the site owners problem. I just feel embarrassed, that someone like you is allowed to throw shade on a Queen forum and with this by that on Queen fans as a whole. Yes, many (but still a minority) can’t stand Lambert.

Once again, Icy, you are damning with faint praise. Big deal, so you like Save Me and that is the only thing you like in all of the 175 plus shows. You criticize everything about Adam and an awful lot about Brian and Roger. So what if he is working with Queen now? I would put my career on hold to perform with them to rave reviews. It is a once in a lifetime opportunity and he has many years left to do other things. They all love touring together!! And it is not as if he hasn't done other things, since he has put out music and toured and been on Glee and Rocky Horror and several other things. He apparently has a part in the new Lego movie and he is recording his new music. He does have other irons in the fire, but Queen is a priority, as it should be. I just wish they would record music. My son is home for a visit and he just said today he wished they would record together since they fit so well as a group. I have heard that sentiment from many people at this point in time. Attitudes have changed vastly since 5-6 years ago. While you may consider yourself a "fan", I certainly don't. |

So I‘m actually thankful for that. And don’t forget, Bri and Rog don’t have forever. Their time is limited. Just seeing them happy on stage tells me, that all three of them are doing the right thing. |

Sealion youre completely clueless when it comes to Queen and you are one of those brainless glamtarts that try to put Freddie down to big Lamebert up. Learn to live with the fact that the goat had no career if there was no Freddie. Freddie was a musician not a plastic manufactured popper like Lamebird who only had 15 min if fame thru AI. I am sure Queen would have lasted until now even if there were solo Projects. They made it clear more than once that they always come back to Queen. Freddie was not the diva in queen he kept em together. Brian was always Mr twoface. A diva in the studio and often jealous about Freddie being the main focus and the better songwriter. Why should they have disbanded in 1987 after their biggest tour ever? Stupid crap made up by clueless Glamberts. They would have toured The Miracle and still put out new music as Freddie hated to be a lame Nostalgia act. Something that they are now with the annoying tool on vocals. |

Icy you arenot nearly as pleasant with Caroline and me as your are with the others. You never had anything nice to say to Caroline here or on QOL and that pretty much applies to me also. You just haven't been. You always throw who you get along with at the moment (and it changes weekly) into the conversations and I don't particularly care about that. That doesn't help me at all. You can think what you want about us as fans, but I am a Queen fan, an Adam fan and a QAL fan, in addition to many others. I am not obsessed with just one artist and think he is the bee's knees. I like a lot of them! I just don't like the way you slam QAL all the time with petty stuff. To each his own! |
Sealion 04.08.2018 05:11 |
@runner I‘m clueless? No. I have my opinion as I said. Remember John’s reaction at the end of that tour for instance? And you are again insulting other people. Nothing of that has anything to do with Lambert, whom YOU are so obsessed about, that you are dragging him into any of your posts. And the bandmembers themselves (or rather the ones, that are still there and talk about it) said, that they would have possibly split around that time. It‘s not my imagination. But I guess you are so obsessed with the band, that the simple idea of a split makes you mad. Ever heard of the fact, that a forum is for discussions? I think not, because you aren‘t able to discuss. You are only slamming people with other opinions. |

She has/is blaming me for everything she does wrong, isn't exactly nice, and you beliving what she says, isn't exactly nice either.. You see nothing wrong with what she does and says. To you both, I'm the worst of the worst. Sure, you are a Queen fan...and I'm a Glambert LOL. Nope, sorry, I don't be that you are a Queen fan. If you read my posts, especially on QOL, you'd know I like a great deal of music. For example, the Thunder rock band, sweetcaroline throws in my face. Sam Smith, Adele, Elton John, Ozzy, and so much more which is also thrown n my face because I like and post about on QOL. I don't give a fk that you think I slam Q+AL with petty stuff. I think you are petty, bitter and jealous of Freddie's legacy, cause AL is unlikely to ever be a legend... singing for Brian and Roger, or his solo music is hardly legendary. |

Sealion: You spout off at Runner70 been ill and obsessed with hate over Lambert when you are just the same defending Lambert to the hilt and not bothered if he has no credibility or if he is a gimmick which by the way he certainly is. He is not a proper pop star and his fame is based on been with Queen and that is it. If Queen did not re-home him like a little lost puppy he would be playing pubs or smaller theatres,. As to my past posts been deleted i think Vocal Harmony hacked into my posts somehow and deleted them himself. If this is true then he could also find himself in serious trouble. |

Lambert cannot write a decent song, cannot play any instrument and is only a thief singing other legends music to make his living. His own material sucks and has not set the world on fire like you girls on here think. No one takes him seriously because everyone sees through him. Brian justin crumb from American Idol sounds exactley the same as Adam Lambert proving he is ten a penny with a common singing voice and style. Not unique at all. |

Out of his own material there's some I quite like, they aren't gonna be classics but so what neither is a lot of the music out there. Brian sounds nothing like Adam, he might sing in a similar way since they had the same vocal coach when young but there the similarity ends, his voice tone wise is nothing like Adam's. And finally he's not stealing anything he was asked to sing with Brian & Roger, that's not stealing. If he decided to re record Queen songs in his own way then you'd have a point but he's just singing them in a live show, the same as loads of performers in pubs, clubs, tribute bands etc do all the time, he just happens to be singing with original members. |

Sealion 04.08.2018 11:41 |
@Holly Yes, I consider Freddie a legend. No, I don‘t think he would be considered one, would he still be alive. To steal the show doesn‘t make you instantly a legend. That takes time, IMO. I never ever said, Lambert is a legend. I did barely talk about him at all. Was that understandable enough? To add: I‘m just fed up with some people here, who seem to forget, that Freddie was a great, but human frontman. And no, I didn‘t like everything, he did. When I went to a concert, I found his performance less than satisfying. Apparently he had partied too much before. It was a hit and miss. Sometimes great , often good and sometimes even offputting. Some call it rock‘n roll. When I drive for hours to a gig and the frontman isn‘t what he used to be, do I have to like that? No. And I‘ve heard similar stories by others. I also attended two good gigs, so don‘t pity me. ;-) In the end, Freddie was a genius composer and writer. But I think the same of Brian. Freddie could be a brilliant frontman. But he wasn‘t always like this. It‘s excusable, human. But it was the reason, why I started the topic. Freddie wasn‘t considered a legend, while he was still performing. If he was, then only by some hardcore fans. To bring it back to Q+AL: What I absolutely enjoy about these gigs is, that they are consistently of great quality. Some call it boring, because they are all the same. But the performances are never lacking of quality. My opinion. |

Icy, you sound totally deluded! Why am I bitter and jealous about Freddie's legacy? That makes no sense at all. He is amazing, his legacy will be forever, but it has nothing to do with appreciating Adam and QAL. Why you equate the two, I will never understand. People can really like more than one thing. The person who is jealous and bitter about Freddies' legacy is you. You are just crazy because people like Adam singing Queen and you are afraid that will affect Freddie somehow. That is the only thing that makes any sense to me. You are the Bitter one, the jealous one, truly. If you weren't, you wouldn't make all these crazy statements. I don't care much about Adam's legacy. It will be what it will be. He has his own path and it isn't influenced by Freddie's legacy, I really don't give it much thought. I appreciate all he has done in the last 10 years and his legacy will never be one like Freddie's, but I feel he has been very successful and will continue to be. For someone to be so tied up in a dead singer who you never even saw in concert is really odd. It is like Freddie is the main focus in life from the things you say. Obsessions are never a good thing. You are the only person concerned about legacies and if QAL wasn't as good as it is, I doubt you would be worried. I wish you would quit saying I am not a Queen fan. As I told you, I have loved Queen way before you, back in the beginning. Just because I am not a fanatic does not mean I am not a Queen fan. It ain't all or nothing like it is with you. I loved Queen, I never say mean or nasty things about them. But you do about Adam and QAL all the time. That is why you are not an Adam fan. So don't lump me into the I am not a fan category, cause I don't fit there. You do. You just have to read all your posts where you always second people who are saying negative things and adding your own. No problem with that, but then you try to pretend you are an Adam fan. Your behavior does not indicate that at all, either here or on QOL. I don't come here at Caroline's bidding. I don't know her, but I have watched you slam her for years for no good reason on QOL. That was before I even knew who you were. I could never figure out why and it has been a very long time. I am sure you had plenty to do with her bans since the mods also don't like QAL. I've told you numerous times that you are a bully and you hide behind statements like," Well, I do like Save Me" and this week "I am friendly with Rockchic". As I said, Big Deal, the rest of the time you are a wolf in sheep's clothing and then act all distressed and throw crap at me when I try to point out all your inconsistencies! Just own what you are like Runner and Happy. I know exactly what they are and while I don't like it at all, they never try to pretend. You pretend and I hate that just as much and you can get just as ugly as they do sometimes with your accusations. Don't give me the" poor little me" bit. I have read your posts over many years and that doesn't fly with me! I know better and I know exactly what you are. |

Is Marc Martel going to be a thief? Why can he sing Queen and change things up? To me he is even further down the chain of popularity, so I don't know why he would get a pass? He is certainly no rock icon and I doubt very few people have ever heard of him. So, what is up with that? |

So, what is up with that?I personally don't care if he re records the entire Queen catalogue, no matter how similar to Freddie he sounds it won't beat the original for me, but I do find it puzzling why it's ok for him to do a recorded covers EP and apparently Queen themed xmas EP - not quite sure what that means, but Adam is slammed for just singing with them. Adam has said he won't re record Queen music, just last week someone on insta asked him to record his version of WWTLF and he replied 'thanks that's very flattering but Queen already recorded that one'. He's nothing but respectful towards Queen and Freddie yet gets hate for just singing live with them. |

Even I as a skeptic person was absolutely stunned by it, when I first heard it live. I don‘t think, it would be as stunning on a record. But it certainly would be a real alternative to the original: Brian and Roger recording Brian‘s song in a newer version with Lambert could in my opinion even chart.

@rockchicl65 It looks like a lot of people. But Queen has millions of fans. 18 mio. monthly listeners on Spotify, as I have learned in another thread. When you take these numbers into consideration, it‘s really just a small portion of fans, who are also fans of Martel. Personally I don‘t care for him. He can record, what he likes to record. But I will rather listen to my old ones. And no, I wouldn‘t say no, if our old guys would record something with Lambert. Old, new, I don‘t care. As long as it‘s good. ;-) |

To me he is even further down the chain of popularity, so I don't know why he would get a pass? He is certainly no rock icon and I doubt very few people have ever heard of him. So, what is up with that?I think the answer can already be found in your question. Very few people have heard of him and will hear it. He found his niche. But it‘s a really small market and not considered a threat to Queen. Lambert re-recording WWTLF? Even I as a skeptic person was absolutely stunned by it, when I first heard it live. I don‘t think, it would be as stunning on a record. But it certainly would be a real alternative to the original: Brian and Roger recording Brian‘s song in a newer version with Lambert could in my opinion even chart. And THAT would be considered a threat to Queen‘s legacy by the diehards. |

I bet you are gnashing your teeth wishing you were there to agree with those posters. LOL. |

Personally Icy, I really don't care to know anything about you. What I have read in your posts for many years paints a picture of a person who is not anyone I would like to associate with. It was hard not to notice the snarky comments and accusatory posts you always had on QOL and here. There is nothing stalkerish about it. I read on both sites and yours always stood out for me and not in a good way, I am sorry to say. I would have had to been an idiot not to notice them. You were one of the nasties in my mind. You are really never kind and always out to get certain people and deflecting everything. I am not out to promote Adam. I have never posted a link (except maybe one article) and don't go on and on and on other than I really like QAL and Adam. I like him singing Queen a lot more than his own music. I am not sure where the big promotion comes in? My point about Queen history you still haven't comprehended after all this time. I don't need the tidbits to enjoy the music. I like what I like and whether he wore a cape at this show or how old he was when he passed on, isn't at the top of what I deem important. We just don't value the same things, I guess. I can anjoy the music without very unimportant facts. If you had an interesting tidbit, that might be something very different, but what you have put out there so far, is definitely not interesting. I can easily get through life without those useless facts. I may defend Adam as part of QAL because I think some of you are ridiculous. No matter what positive thing someone says, three of you can be counted on to say something ugly, none of which contributes to the conversation and keeps others from posting on her. |

Everytime you read something that you think is slight to sweetcaroline, in you swoop to defend her. Or try to defend her. You do a shitty job of it, because you have one side of the story, and that's hers. And you believe that she is just so innocent always. You and sweetcaroline giving AL history lessons on Queen boards without giving a damn about the Freddie/Queen years is shameful in my books. You both wouldn't be here if AL wasn't the one to sing the Queen songs, and if sweetcaroline wasn't banned for a year from QOL, she probably would be on both boards doing her usual. I think you both forget or don't care it's a Queen board, although you both want to make Queen boards into Adamtopia or something where only praise is ever wanted and accepted. That's what you want and need, so go to Adamtopia and stay there. Because it's people like you and sweetcaroline who gives Glamberts a bad name on Queen boards. |

Doesn't matter the reason, lots of singers wore make up and dressed androgynous, why is it ok for them but not Lambert. Now do you get my point? What's dense about that? |

Lambert actually enjoys been dressed up like a freak where the others were pretending to be glam.

I am not homophobic but the music must come first not his sexuality. |

And more double standards - they were pretending, but apparently Adam isn't. Of course he's pretending, he likes playing dress up and being on stage gives him that opportunity, he's talked about it enough in interviews and he doesn't take any of it seriously, it's meant to be for entertainment and putting on a show. Just because it's not what you like doesn't make him any different than other people who've done the exact same thing. Regardless what you think he does put the music first but I don't see anything wrong with playing up the camp for comedic effect as well. |

LAmebert is pretending everything: Taht is is a rocker (which he is not), that hes a good singer (which is he is surely not) that he is an icon (which he clearly is not). Everything about him is fake manufactured and insincere. |

To be camp should not encourage people to laugh because that is cruel, because some people are naturally camp even straight men. So if he does pretend which i do not think he does then he is taking the piss out of himself. Yes he likes the limelight and he may feel big headed because he is on stage with two rock legends, i wonder how many other rock legends would have taken him on board, not many i would imagine. i am very surprised Brian May was even looking at reality talent shows in the first place because him and Roger detested Simon Cowell and those cheesy shows and Roger was the one in interviews who would say that talent shows are killing real talent off in the music business, next min the two hypocrites take on Lambert. And you wonder why some of us are hacked off. |

Completely true- they HATED guys like Lamebird before. But as their aim was to be recognized in America again they went for Lamebird and sold out their principles.

It's called self deprecating humor so yeah he does take the piss out of himself on occasion in the show for fun, people warm to him for it but no one's laughing at him they're laughing with him when he plays up the camp, it's obvious he's doing it for fun the huge majority of people get it. He's not the least bit big headed at being on stage with them, he frequently says it surreal and he often stops and thinks "wow, this is my life now". They weren't looking for someone on a talent show Spike told Roger to check him out and then they got tons of emails saying this guy should be your singer. They may have had that opinion of talent shows initially but there's always an exception and Adam was in no way typical of talent show contestants, it would have been blinkered to refuse to check him out just because of where he got his start. After meeting him it was a done deal and if you weren't so blinkered by hating him you'd see why they chose him - he's 100% professional, great work ethic and extremely reliable, fun and lighthearted to be around, not the least bit diva in his everyday life so no drama and he's very loyal. Really can't see why they wouldn't like working with him tbh. |

I dunno where you see any humour in Lamebird except that is is a joke himself. When Freddie wore his crown (HIS CROWN) it made him chuckle and he laughed about it being called "The King of Queen" - when Lamebird wears it he takes it completely seriously and looks like "Now I Am the one wearing it" - i cannot see any humour in this at all. And his stage banter is fully scripted - if you like "humor" like "Giving head" when he is sitting on Frank oder this embarrassing intro to "STL" then I pity you. In interviews he is coming across as arrogant twat trying to play his role down but you can completely feel the message "I am in Queen now" . |

Seriously if he was acting arrogant on stage and people actually believed he was like that they wouldn't have taken to him and this collaboration would have failed long since. No one who watches interviews with him thinks he's arrogant at all, you've even just said he plays his role down but you can feel he's thinking something else. Going off what everyone who's ever worked with him, interviewed him or met him says, which is the complete opposite, don't you think it's possible he really isn't like you perceive? I really don't believe Brian & Roger would have taken to him either if that was his personality and no one could have kept up a pretence for six years, when you're spending that much time together on the road it would have shown through by now. |

I would say the evidence shows only two people don't get the humour most of the time. One is obsessed with Lamberts position in Queen to the point he has to post the same negativity over and over again The other one, is a deranged half wit who can't string a sentence together in order to state what he is thinking without resorting to pure abuse of the subject and the people he is replying too. Because of their joint mindset and obvious moral and maturity limitations, the contents of what they post is pretty worthless. What I find vaguely amusing is that they are the only two who can't see the limitations of the situation they have created for themselves. |

There is no depth/dynamic/soul to anything. He's like a pseudo Freddie mannequin or something.

Great Post RUNNER ! Yes outside the Queen circle many many people have told me when i asked them what do you think of Queen with Adam Lambert? Reply: some say "who is he"? others say Not the same band with out Freddie so not interested. Some Queen fans will take any garbage from Brian & Roger if they say something is great. It is all hype and at the end of this combo when Queen retire they will look back and regret what they have done i promise you. Queen with Lambert are now more gayer than Bronski Beat or even the Communards and that is saying something! They are supposed to be a British dynamic rock band not a west end musical for all the nellies to go and see. I do not see any of the hard rock fans in the audiences now like when Queen were strong back in there days with Freddie, so even those fans have ditched the band to be replaced by Glamberts and mams and dads. |

Obviously it's not for everyone but you really are way off the mark. There were plenty of hard rock fans and fans of old at all the shows and plenty saying the shows were amazing and Lambert is great. . Of course we all know that having been to the gigs these people's opinions are worthless because nappystar is in a better position to judge He 's only two steps behind runner 3 and a half in the stupidity stakes |

Most old school rockers hate qalWell if we're using facebook posts as proof, here I'll raise you some: I have been twice here in the uk . I did see Queen in the 80s 3 times & Q & PR 3 times too . Adam is a great choice for frontman & Brian & Roger are like kids again . Its only a few off these idiots that wouldn't know "Bohemian Rhapsody " from " Radio Ga Ga " . 99% of true , loyal fans love Q & AL , i hope they carry on forever lol . Enjoy x Wembley stadium July '86...Glasgow green July '18...Thank you Frank..Thank you Queen...32 years of separation...Still the best...Show must go on!! Great show. Loved every minute...Saw it twice. Saw them with Freddie 8 times. Great to see and hear the love continue. Freddie would have approved- The Show Has Gone on - A heartfelt thanks from a lifelong fan. What a night in Dublin was blown away. Saw you in Slane with Freddie. He would be so proud. Can't wait for the next one. im a real Queen fan got everything they ever released,in every format since i was 9, and havent missed a tour in 39 years..and Adam is excellent..but then again maybe i'm not as big a fan as you eh? |

I just watched a video by Deacy‘s youngest son on YT. He was reacting to the BoRhap trailer, really nice to see his excitement and pride of his father. Also interesting: he wore a Q+AL shirt doing so. He said he was at one of the latest O2 London shows and thought it was brilliant. He also has videos from last years Wembley show on his channel. Sure, he‘s not his Dad. But it appears to me, that the Deacon household is not against Q+AL, as some people here always claim to know. |

That they are happy to have found a singer, who suits them? You really start to sound like an absolute idiot. Now you started quoting opinions from people, who think like you. Something Caroline always gets shit for. Of course there are other fans of your opinion. But fact is, that they are the absolute minority by far. Even on the Official Facebook site. When you compare the likes and the dislikes it‘s what? 10:1 for the likes? From reading your posts one would think, it’s the other way round, meaning you‘re actually trying to spread fake news. You can stop that. Nobody in this forum -if they like Q+AL or not- will believe you. We know you long enough by now. |

I think even if Freddie were to somehow descend from Rock'N'Roll Heaven and say he was glad QAL was touring and that he loved Adam singing with them, that would't be enough for our two buddies. If having a Deacon son showing support for QAL doesn't do the trick,, nothing is going to show them they are misinformed. They must have nothing else to do in life and this is the highlight of their day to be pains in the butt. I am sure in real life no one has time for them and at least here, people reply to their crazy statments. Crazy nut jobs on the internet are always poor souls in real life.

You really think you have never done anything wrong. Let's see, ou spammed, promoted and defended AL and shit stirred for years. What truth did you ever post? When you said QOL members don't accept AL because he was gay, that was wrong, can't you see that?! Congratulations on shooting yourself in the foot and your year long ban, sweetcaroline/CNB. Good riddance to you. You never did learn after your other bans, because you must always play the victim and blame me, the first thing you did with your other bans was to run here to blame me. I know at least your ban from a year ago wasn't my fault, funny how you ignore that. I'm sure your stories about being banned this time like it did with your other ones, but you will always manage to blame me and think you never did anything wrong. What is wrong with you mentally? You are wrong to blame me. You are pathetic. You are wrong. You haven't been right or truthful about much at at all. You have done your fair share of bitching. I've been a member of QOL for over a decade, and I will tell you you have done more harm than good regarding AL on Queen boards. Continue to blame me if it makes you feel any better. You look spiteful and bitter when you blame me. |

But most of us do not really care as it is water under the bridge. Can we just avoid the subject from now on? There is nothing new to say about it. |

I love classic Queen too, I listen to Queen on a daily basis, my playlist on USB in the car is made up of mostly Queen music, and I'm really glad I was born in that era. I do see quite a few comments on YouTube from young people who love Queen, I think their music is timeless, I just wish we could get that kind of real music back in the mainstream but it doesn't look promising. |

Icy claims innocence but has no qualms about complaining about those positive posts as she did here regarding the Vegas poster that Adam’s image is bigger than Brian and Roger. I post things as a way of informing about what is going on and then icy twists it into something negative that I am promoting Adam.

Many times you have posted the same thing, just with another link. Right before this current ban that's exactly what you have done. I think you purposely did it. The bombshell from you and lies that hat QOL members do not accept AL because he is gay sure didn't help. But you can't admit to being wrong. You think that Vegas unofficial poster and what I said was negative? Too bad. It's crap and very telling that the image of AL s bigger than the one of Brian and Roger. And it's not the first time. You post to spam, defend, promote and shit stir. Erm, snifflese has went to a Q+AL show. If Queen fans don't go to Q+AL and praise everything to the rafters, those people aren't Queen fans according to you. You can come at me about me bitching when you admit that you have bitched and blamed me for things. Three times now you posted on QZ that it's my fault you have been banned.

Vocal Harmony That is your opinion and i respect that but for me Freddie made a Queen concert special, he was after all the heart and soul of Queen and now the band look empty and lost on stage and maybe a little odd and for me it does not flow like it use to with Fred and john been there. A lot of today's kids do not care if a singer writes his own songs or not or sings other peoples songs but i think it is a very important thing that artists do write there own material for it shows they are credible and do not rely on blood sucking other artists songs to make money and that is what Lambert is doing. If Lambert got on with his solo career and proved he had balls i would respect him more as an original artist but the way he gets an easy ride from May & Taylor makes me think he is on a cushy number there. |

@sweetcaroline: Yeah he was a teeny bop sensation for a short period of time, which usually makes for a short-lived career. When that ended very quickly, he retired to Las Vegas to disseminate elevator music to cracked old grannies and lounge lizards. Lambert's career seems to be following the same trajectory. Good luck to him. I don't begrudge him anything. He works hard and seems to be a nice guy. But he is what he is, and no amount of noise from you and the Glamberts will ever make him a rock star. |

It's just how it is. The truth is that as well as fans of old, they are also appealing to a younger market too, yes some of those are New Queen fans grabbing a chance they are too young to have experienced 40 years ago, but some are Lambert fans too. If you go back to the mid thirties and forties big bands you'll find the roots of and influences to a lot of current musicians. All music and the people who write, play and sing it, filters through time. If you're dismissing a musical style as old or out of time you're missing out. |

Unless you have heard Adam in concert with Queen, you have no idea how powerful that voice is. Videos are not close to being accurate. Adam can drown out the band and his voices just rings in the rafters of the venues no matter how large. I have seen him twice with Queen and about 10 times total and there is nothing weak or feeble about his voice. Havng a higher voice does not equate to weak or feeble. He can fill the venue like any operatic tenor. You can take that off of your ridiculous list of QAL deficits. He has a huge voice and can hold a note for 25 or more secs at pretty much the same volume and on pitch. There are not many singers who can do that. You are only fooling yourself if you think there is anything subpar about his world class quality voice. Just read some of the comments from opera and classical teachers and other singers and directors with whom he has worked. Weak and feeble or any other criticism is just not there. It is only in your head and people who are never going to like anything but Freddie. That is a valid viewpoint, but you don't need to denigrate other singers because they aren't Freddie and your particular cup of tea. Brian and Roger picked him because he isn't Freddie. It was a conscious decision and I would say 99% of the people who ATTEND the concert don't have any complaints. You prefer a different kind of voice and that is OK, but just stop the constant vicious remarks. You sound like a broken record! |
