Peter Noone, of Herman's Hermits fame? I suppose he could...maybe throw in a performance of 'I'm Henry The VIII I Am', or 'Mrs Brown You've Got A Lovely Daughter'.

SHUT THE HELL UP. THIS THREAD HAS BEEN POSTED TOO MANY TIMES ALREADY. BTW, THE CAPS ARE INTENTIONAL.
Well...like everybody's said...No one can replace Freddie...I feel they should carry on and do a farewell tour. The only two people I've ever seen that can come really close to fully commanding Freddie's range and have his stage presence are Jeff Scott Soto, and Gary Cherone. They'll never replace our Fred, nobody will. But they would do Freddie's legacy justice. On the 2nd disc of the Freddie Tribute DVD, there's a documentary...and on that documentary, Brian is quoted for saying that he believes that Freddie would be up and excited about other people singing interpretations of his songs. Brian's got a fair point, after all he only new freddie for at least 20 years. Jeff Scott Soto is an amazing vocalist, and the way that Gary Cherone stole the show among the guest vocalists at the Tribute Show with "Hammer to Fall." Now other people think Tony Vincent or George Michael. Both of them are decent...nothing extraordinary. George Michael hit all Freddie's notes on Somebody to Love, but...THEY HAD TO CHANGE THE KEY OF THE SONG FROM A FLAT MAJOR TO G MAJOR SO GEORGE WOULDN'T LOOK LIKE A FUCKING IDIOT!! I'm sure that he would put his heart and soul into going over the top for this if he got it...but, he doesn't have the stage presence or the full range that Fred had...and as far as Tony Vincent is concerned...maybe I'm wrong but didn't he sing "Bohemian Rhapsody" at the Party at the Palace? If so he was horrible...he looked and sounded more like a woman than Freddie even tried to. He did an atrocious job...he was too high...he belongs doing broadway, not in rock 'n roll!
Possible candidates...
1. William Hung
2. Enrique Iglesias
3. William Shatner
4. Ja Rule
5. Scott Tapp
6. Bob Dylan
7. 50 Cent
8. Lou Reed
9. Michael Bolton
10. Jordi (for those who remember that French baby who had a hit song in 1996... he must have pubes already by now)
I dont know why, but when I listen to Ogre Battle, I always imagine how could sing it Meat Loaf, so, if it's possible, I'd like to see Meat Loaf teaming with Queen
ELVIS IS DEAD??? YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING. Sonia, did you know this??? I'm shocked.
I guess I found out now... Better late than never. Did he die because of homosexual intimate contact? did he shave before he died? the truth is out there... in the toilet maybe...
what does thicky mean?
No one. ever. It would be so disrespectful, like when ray manzereck tried to resurect the doors. It just wouldn't work. Queen, unfortunaly died with freddie mercury.
