Who should be the lead singer for this new album? OBVIOUSLY IS PAUL RODGERS, BUT I WANT YOU TO TELL ME YOUR OPINION. |
| L-R-TIGER1994 29.08.2006 20:32 |
Freddie. |

Georgie. :D |

Paul... without doubt... George Michael singing rock and kinda heavy songs...? Forget it... Paul have done a great job... He have to be the permanent singer... |
| Gone. 29.08.2006 21:32 |
I think George has a fabulous voice! But Paul is more suited for the job, probably ;-P |
| teleman 29.08.2006 22:59 |
Dennis DeYoung. He could sing the Queen song 'Mr. Roboto' :D |

Paul Rodgers without question...he's got the range and power to do it. He did a damn good job with them on tour. I think George Michael is a great vocalist...but he's not a rock singer, the only heavy Queen track that he'd give a good vocal to would be "Millionare Waltz." |

Definitely George Michael!!! He has a lot more in common with Freddie to where I would not even be offended if he sang with Brian and Roger. In common with Freddie, he is gay, he is ethnic British and he also has a campy sense of humor. Like Freddie, he is also VERY sexy in an androgenous kind of way. |

George Michael did a great job singing Somebody to Love at the Freddie Mercury tribute concert, but Paul Rodgers, by far, is a better fit with the overall body of Queen's catalog. Paul Rodgers wins easily. |

Paul (as long as it's Rodgers and not Holmes) |
| Ready_Coddie 30.08.2006 01:39 |
How about Robert Plant? |
| FriedChicken 30.08.2006 01:58 |
I can't believe some people think George Michael would be a good choice.. OK he did a great job with Somebody to Love. But can you imagine him singing something like Tie Your Mother Down, Hammer to Fall or I Want it All? |
| Smitty 30.08.2006 02:12 |
I say that Paris Hilton should be on lead vocals for the next Queen album...She is such an amazing singer/songwriter. xD |

George. Even where Freddie is concerned, I appreciate much more the voice than the running around. |

| thomasquinn 32989 30.08.2006 07:38 |
No fucking way I'd want G.M. anywhere NEAR the microphone for any of the harder work. Paul Rodgers all the way. And Brian could take a shot at the ballads himself. |

George Michael has the better voice, but I really cannot see him singing Hammer to Fall or Stone Cold Crazy - he has the wrong look for that too. Now his performace of SBTL at the Tribute Concert STILL brings tears to my eyes - he sounds so much like Freddie. To me, he is the only person in the world who can sing that song the way Freddie did. |

AS the Queen + Paul Rodgers tour was a great success and well received, why would Queen entertain the thought of bringing anybody else into the mix? Paul only teamed up with them because the chemistry was there and it meant they could all play to the crowds they used to, instead of the small venues they all play solo. For the sake of this thread though, the new album should feature Paul Rodgers on vocals, with vocals on some tracks by Roger and Brian, like the old Queen albums used to feature Freddie as lead on most songs, but the odd ones handled by Roger and Brian. George Michael is a great singer, but not as good a writer as Paul for the sort of direction Brian and Roger would want to take, and not a good choice for rock songs like 'Tie Your Mother Down'. He also suffers from stage fright now and again, which is hardly ideal for fronting Queen. Robbie Williams would be the doomsday scenario. He is a nervous wreck, is not a very good singer and a worse songwriter. It took him eight takes in the studio to turn out a crap 'We Are The Champions". It took Paul one live version of the same song to get him the job of fronting the band for a full tour. Class and crap. JG |

yeah Mrs. Doubtfire can prance around though lol Dennis DeYoung From Styx is actually really good i'd pick him but Paul Rodgers is just as good :> |
| Micrówave 30.08.2006 13:25 |
George Michael is the only real logical choice. He would work for a lot cheaper. Plus, being on probation, there's no chance of him running out of the studios. He's being drug-tested as part of his probation, so that would keep his head right with ball. Plus George has only a couple #1s, and nothing lately, so no ego to have to deal with. I would prefer Paul. I would hate for Queen to "pull a Carlos" and do a bunch of songs with a bunch of different singers. |
| Boy Thomas Raker 30.08.2006 13:26 |
While George Michael did indeed do a fabulous job at the tribute with STL, it was dropped a half tone from Ab to G. That's part of the reason he sang it so well, because the original was out of his range. Personally don't like artists who change keys (Hello, Bono!) in a live setting. |
| Gone. 30.08.2006 13:26 |
I nominate Robert Plant! =D |

I don't think George would work for a "Queen + Paul Rodgers" album... As much as I love George, and would love to see him record stuff with Queen (yes, I DO think he can handle the 'rock' side), they are both off in TOTALLY different directions at the moment. |

I'm not that impressed with George based on the few Queen songs I've heard him do. Paul has proven himself to be an excellent vocalist and I'm happy to see him continue to work with Queen. |
| matias2 30.08.2006 18:12 |
Gary Cherone?? Robert Plant?? Robbie Williams????!!!! Are you fucking crazy????!!!!!!!!! Gary Cherone can't sing, he proves it singing Hammer To Fall at the Freddie Tribute Concert, Robert Plant is the same thing, he lost his magnificent voice, he can't sing like in the 70's. ANDDDD....Robbie Williams...where is his voice??? Are you crazy?? ESCUDERODELAREINA LA VERDAD QUE SOS UN PELOTUDO. I'm speaking spanish with ESCUDERODELAREINA, he is a silly boy!!! |
