As a male performer and singer, Adam is so underrated. He deserves so much more than what the industry is offering him. Give this man all his things!
He’s got to be a ‘god’, I swear... unreal.
Hes the front man of queen now and has his solo career aswell I'd say hes getting all he deserves in life he couldn't go any higher if he tried I'd say hes made it .
@@HerondalesAngel Probably people thought he deserves legentary level in music history instead of just a "great singer"?
I dunno, lead singer of queen. Doesn't get much better than that
Adam Lambert has one of the best voices on the planet, his voice is so unique, and beautiful.
I love Freddie, I love it that Adam doesn't try to 'do' Freddie - he is Adam, his own person. Perfect choice to keep Queen's music alive, introducing the music to more generations. 50 years +.
It's because Adam couldn't be Freddie!!! Never!!!
Well said and a wonderful thing.
@@picothehuskymalamutepc9222 He couldn’t and he doesn’t have to be. He’s great as Adam Lambert, his chapters hasn’t closed yet
Adam Lambert is FOREVER PART OF QUEENS HISTORY AND LEGACY along with Paul Rodgers👏
I loved Queen’s music with a passion. I loved Adam Lambert on American Idol.
Saw them together in concert in Boston. Cried happy tears to hear the music again with an amazing singer who I also wanted to see.
Freddie is Freddie…the one and only.
Adam is also Adam…the one and only.
What a world to hear this great music with both vocalists. Goosebump chills.
Brian May said during this song he often forgets to play when he hears Adam Lambert do things with his voice he's never heard before.;)
😢♥️
Didn't know that Brian was loosing his hearing. Thanks for letting me know.
That’s pretty amazing!
Darla Hays losing, not loosing 🙄
@@bkythatsme thanks for pointing out that no matter, how much I hate to admit it.......I am not perfect. 😊
“Paint emotional colors with his voice”. Wow. That is honestly the best description of what Adam does and who he is as a vocalist. Excellent statement Sir!
Adam Lambert’s voice gives me chills & provokes strong emotions. I don’t know much about singing & vocals. All I know is that Adam has one of the best voices I’ve ever heard. He’s incredible & highly underrated
I took my granddaughter to see them in July. My granddaughter would never listen to this song because it reminded her of her mother’s death. She couldn’t escape it in the concert, but she sat mesmerized by Adam’s performance (the only moment we sat). Now she said his singing it helped her. The power of a vocal performance!
Elizabeth Hewins Peace & comfort to you, your granddaughter &whole family . So sorry for your loss but glad you have each other & your memories ❤️🕊❤️🕊
Emily Chambers thank you! So sweet of you.
My oldest son passed away in 2008 and I was heartbroken and devastated. I began watching Adam on American Idol in 2009 and corny as this sounds he brought me so much joy that he helped with my grief. Love Adam then and now, a class act and a beautiful person inside and out. BTW I have never voiced this before but it is the truth. Thank you Adam.
Sharman Galloway deepest condolences. Glad you have found some comfort in music Hope you find continuing peace
My husband and I saw Queen and Adam in July as well we saw him in Pittsburgh. They were all absolutely amazing. I’m sorry for your and your granddaughters loss. I’m very happy you all got to experience them live and help you all heal. Blessed be.
I can’t help but think that Freddie looks down from heaven and smiles when hears Adam sing his songs!! He does them beautifully.
Roger Taylor said he had never heard this song sung like that. Breathtaking. Adam is the only singer today who has the range to sing Queens songs.
Absolutely true.
I'm 68 and have seen all the greats. I watched only one season of American Idol (2008) BECAUSE of Adam. When he first stepped onto stage at the auditions (with Bohemian Rhapsody no less) I was hooked. He has the most amazing voice I have ever heard (other than Babs of course). And he's actually a NICE guy! Plus he has some really great looks. Freddie would be proud. He does him justice while staying true to himself. Adam is truly amazing - a gift from the heavens!
Very well said. I'm glad Adam is being himself and not trying to imitate Freddy. And, he's doing quite well for himself and for Queen.
Babs doesn't hold a candle to Adam. ;D
Adam has said he doesn't look or sound like Freddie and that he is just himself. Love this guy!@@sherryy1743
TRUE!! @@commonsense8248
Same here regarding Idol. That was the only season I watched and the only reason was Adam. When he performed with Queen at the end of the season, I decided then and there that he was the ONLY person on the planet worthy of lifting Freddie's mic.
I love how much Brian and Roger love Adam. I read somewhere that one of them said he was a gift from god. He has given them a whole new life. It’s such a lovely story and boy does he deserve it.
Yes, Brian calla him GFG "gift from God"!
Ｉ think this guy is also insane: Marc Martel ua-cam.com/video/HcZKtR0dzew/v-deo.html
@@todosealion9469 He does sound like Freddie
Brian and Roger have both said they did not want an imitation, someone who sounded like Freddie. It would be too painful. They love Adam; they have chemistry with him. It works for all of them. As a Queen fan since 1975, I'm happy Roger and Brian are happy, and I get to see them live again. Adam does a kick-ass job, a fantastic performance. That's all I need to know.
@@feelinguru-vywiththepaingu9808 well put! 👏🏻
Apparently Brian May says he's in so much awe of Adam's voice and what and how he is singing on stage, he forgets to play! Wow. Fantastic.
if you want to see Brian May "listening to Adam" and "forgetting to play" - check out the video "Somebody to Love" in Melbourne, Australia - and the ending of that song is just mind-blowing
IMO
His vocal control is above and beyond amazing
He's not LIKE Freddy, but he has Freddy's intensity and color. I love how he doesn't copy Freddy, but elaborates his own, and no less epic singing. I LOVED Freddy Mercury! And I think he'd like this kid!
Adam Lambert maybe is the most talented and gifted singer of the present time. He's a phenomenon who's able to do so many things in a perfect way. Incredible. 😃
Freddie Mercury left us and sent us Adam it was the only way the world could move forward
Heather Nelson oh wow you are sooooo right that gave me goosebumps reading that!!! Adam is AMAZING!!!!
Adam lambert is NOT. Freddie
@@craighughes7103 we know and he knows too. But he is the only one who can sing with such a great passion the songs alongside Queen. And let me tell you they still perform and will have concerts on 2021.
See the documentary Queen and Adam Lambert: show must go on at Netflix or here in UA-cam 🤟
Then, I wish he would have sent us someone better than a Las Vegas cabaret singer. I know he is not Freddie and people say he is not trying to be which is a very good thing because he is definitely not, not even close.
REALLY! BUT ADAM IT'S THE ANSWER TO FREDDIE DEATH!
I’ve heard Adam sing live, he’s in a class of his own, a voice that’s just off the planet, he’s mesmerising 😍
I discovered Adam Lambert in 2019 when the pandemic was just getting started. I watched the Queen+Adam Lambert documentary just for the hell of it and was astonished by this performance. Watching it with headphones is phenomenal. Since then, I've explored more of his work and performances, and he never ceases to amaze me
Listen to his Kennedy Center performance of Cher's Believe. Fabulous!
As soon as Adam open his mouth, I start to cry 😭😭❤ he is one of the best singers in history ❤❤
I have never heard Adam Lambert singing for Queen before I stumbled across this vid. Avoided it. Nobody can sing Queen like Freddie. And I was right. Nobody can sing Queen like Freddie. But Adam Lambert damn sure can sing Queen like himself, and he is FANTASTIC.
Also, I really appreciate a vocal coach vid that actually goes into the physical mechanics instead. Subbed. :)
There is no one around right now like Adam, seeing him sing in person is undoubtedly an indescribable experience. I could say so many things about it and it would never feel enough. I have seen them twice (and Adam solo once) and ended up tearing up during this song both times. There is so much that transcends the screen with Adam, yet still some things that can't. I am forever a diehard glambert and proud!!!
I cant wait to see them in may🤗
Dimash can be a good competitor for him
@Granypanies You better believe it! And it's not alone the big hip and ass swing. It's him just walking around, slightly moving his shoulder (and other body parts), little sounds of groaning and breathing, making eyes contact to the audience (I swear he recognizes people who have been in front row recently) or falling on his knees and totally down to the floor for the most sexy song "Get down make love". I could go on forever ... Adam is the one and only. ❤
Yes, his voice doesn't shine through on video
I agree ! Recorded Adam is great but seeing him live is phenomenal ! Several months ago I took my 16 year old son to see Queen+Adam and it was mind blowing for both of us
This is Adam Lambert at his premium best. He is singing from his heart with his entire soul. Queen needs a unique front man, and he is excellent at it....but this performance on this night belonged to Adam Lambert.
Somewhere Freddie's smiling, no doubt.
I so agree!! Adam is so wonderfull and he takes my breath away just by singing!! He´s so gorgeous!!
YES, and how amazing that they struck gold twice--with Freddie and Adam. Long live Queen!
Adam Lambert is from another planet !! No one has a voice like his ! His singing evokes so much emotion ! Love You Adam !!
If the vast majority of this generation appreciated real vocal talent this guy would lead the charts instead of mono tone social media driven bullshit. Ambitions mixed up with capabilities at its finest
I'm so thankful that Adam Lambert exists
This song is just ideal for Adam’s voice. He does these emotional, dramatic songs with such nuance. No one will ever replace Freddie Mercury, but Adam is just amazing. Funny thing: first time I heard him I thought about Freddie.
Adam really has solidified this. Not only is he on total control of his voice but with his accompanying gestures and movements as well. Together, it is just perfect. Made me cry given the context of this song in this particular concert.
I don't typically cry at songs, but these songs with Adam singing just get to me. So much heart, so much soul applied to this song by Adam. I can "feel" the message in the words. I will have to watch for him to come to my state/city. I'll be first in line for a front-row seat.
Thank you, John!! People need to understand just how trained and gifted he really is..And, he is improving by leaps and bounds with every performance. Who knew he could top himself when one thought he could not possibly get any better! A vocal genius! Love this young man!
Again, thank you John! I come from a Mom who sang opera under Toscanini at Carnegie Hall many, many decades ago. Walt Disney actually tried to hire her to be the voice of Snow White, but she was busy with a career and a small child, my half sister, who is now 92. Toscanini compared her voice to that of the great Lily Pons. My lullabies were from the most incredible soprano voice you could imagine. She spent a good deal of time trying to train my voice, but I was young and silly, plus I had my Dad's pleasant voice, not hers. She wanted to be my manager. I really appreciate what you do and enjoy that you share your knowledge with the masses, ... uh, most of us, who learn to appreciate a gift where it exists from your talents.
Mary Lou H So lucky to have a mom who sang to you like that!
Adam Lambert is incomparable. Goose bumps
I saw Queen and Adam live in Sydney 2020 Feb. omg I’ve never been so emotional before - ever. Adam is God’s gift to the world and also to Brian and Roger. May Freddie always be with us forever. I’m going to be buried in my Queen shirt when I go. Adam is number 1.
This version astounded Brian and Roger. He was amazing.
Absolutely amazing!! And his voice is truly even better live than on video...hard to believe til you experience it. His voice is other-worldly...magical.
val macclinchy m
@@freddiemercury4evr That is so true. Saw them live 2 years ago and his voice is so powerful in person.
Trevor Millard bb
Thankfully he didn’t win American Idol but I did vote for him over and over. Absolutely Amazing! ❤️
I have never heard Adam ever sing poorly. Every sound out of his mouth is perfect. He is fabulous
On 2013 tour he had a fever and bronchitis and did the full set flawlessly. Unbelievable. He's also a solo artist and done many gigs solo. Check out Closer to You live (from his most recent album).
for real
he has so much control over his vocals that I still can't get over it
I saw Queen + Adam Lambert in Feb 2020 at The Adelaide Oval. He is so awesome singing live. His range is insane. I enjoyed him on American Idol, but hearing him now, it's a whole new level. Oh and Brian May can still shred a guitar like it's nothing. He did a 20 minute guitar solo that just blew my mind.
Freddie would love Adam..
I get chills each time I hear him in these opening bars.
I've been a huge fan of both men.
His performances on American Idol were superb. I'm so glad he didn't win; it would have limited him.
I just saw Queen last week in London and man is Adam Lambert a talented singer. Best concert I’ve ever been to.
I have seen Adam live five times. Once with the American Idol tour, twice solo, once with the Texas Tango compilation concert, and most recently with Queen. His voice is absolutely amazing and affects me in ways other singers just don't come close to doing. Hearing him live is completely different than recordings! I wish US audiences gave him the recognition he deserves the way overseas markets do.
I've seen him twice solo and once with Queen. Amazing
I love Adam Lambert singing. He works magic with his voice and speaks straight to the heart.
Adam is an absolute enigma. I've loved him for so long and he deserves absolutely everything he's ever worked for.
Adam is a master at diction and diphthongs. He never wastes a syllable. It's amazing!
Adam is the only person alive I have trusted with Queen music, and I have not been disappointed yet. He is really a unique vocalist who is on the same level as Freddie without sounding like he is doing Queen karaoke or trying to imitate the original in any way. I cannot wait for normal life to resume for many reasons, one of the biggest ones being the pleasure of live music.
I was actually at the Isle of Wight Festival in 2016 and saw Adam Lambert and Queen live. I’ve been to the Isle of Wight festival every year since 2013 and Adam and Queen are the best Sunday (last night) headliners I’ve ever seen. Just amazing :)
I remember there was a lot of snobbery online before that gig. Some festival goers dismissed Queen with Adam Lambert.
Strange that Adam still has to prove that he's the great vocalist even after performances like this one.
Adam himself will preach to the audience that he is not there to replace Freddie, as there will only ever be one Freddie. He is there to keep Queen’s amazing music alive.
Adam Lambert is FOREVER PART OF QUEENS HISTORY AND LEGACY along with Paul Rodgers👏.
I was at the Isle of Wight listening to this live - Adam was just astounding throughout. Queen and Adam Lambert , the best headliners in the 7 years I’ve been going to the IOW 👍🏻👍🏻
I saw Freddie's last concert at Knebworth and, while I know nothing about the technicalities of singing - I know a good singer when I hear one and I agree - Adam is definitely worthy of stepping into Freddie's shoes.
Andy Hutchinson how dare you say that adam is so bad compared to freddie he has a womens vocal cords no power in his voice at all no one is and no one will be better than freddie im sorry i had to put facts on the table
@@ImmortalSISU Well Brian May and Roger Taylor disagree with you. And their opinion is much more inportant
ok they are trying to make it so everyone forgets about freddie because they want all the attention they were jealous cus freddie was queen so everyone talked about him only and then he died so they started that parody band john knew that without freddie its nothing so he left roger and brian are delusional attention seeking fucks one day you will understand my dear
Right OK. Whatever you think. Didn't know I was talking to a fan boy
@@AmaltheaGaming not a fan boy just talking facts so
Adam is probably the best singer I've heard in my life... he is INSANE. I've never heard such a range on another human being. You can't pay this guy enough.
You need to check out Dimash Kudaibergen singing “SOS”. I freaking love Adam, however Dimash has an unbelievable and astonishing vocal range- which actually exceeds Adam. It’s crazy
Someone beat me to it. Adam is great. No doubt. But listen to Dimash. You won’t believe it. SOS is a good one to start with.
I guess you haven't heard of Freddie Mercury
While good, his range doesn't come close to that of Dimash.
@@jakegutierrez3216 Who hasn't heard of Freddy. But even Freddy couldn't touch Dimash.
you really need to hear him live, yes, these recordings are good but that voice live is something else entirely, he is unmatched in music today
I would love to hear Adam and Ann Wilson do a duet. Ann is a rock goddess with a truly one-of-a kind voice!
During his American Idol journey Adam performed Sam Cook ' s" A change is gonna come". I have never seen a single vocal analysis of his singing there. And I want to. Please check it out.
Adam has the most beautiful male voice ever heard no one sings like that his sound and vocal ability is just one of a kind and so versatile 😎❤️forever Adam
I haven't listened to very much of Adam Lambert's music, nor have I ever heard of John Henny. I stumbled upon this video and I am absolutely blown away. I had no idea how incredibly awesome AL's voice is and then to have the brilliant analysis by Mr.Henny, all I can say is wow Wow WOW!!!!!! Just amazing!!! What a treat!!!!!
You should give his latest Ep "velvet side A" a listen, trust me you won't be disappointed.

Bored Nerd: I clicked on the link in your reply and I'm beginning to realize what fantastic music I've been missing for the past several years. I know that he was the best thing ever to hit American Idol, really in a league of his own, and I see has only continued to master and refine that phenomenal voice ( and let's not forget those delicious moves, ooooohhh!!! ) I know he's never pretended to take the place of Freddie Mercury ( the all time great, never to be bested, imho ), nor does he have to. He is a musical genius in his own right. Sometimes, cruising around UA-cam definitely pays off. Yeah, and the All Female Band and Vocals: the cherry on top!!
@@lhm72052 thank you for replying! No problem, you can always catch up, you can start out with this years releases, including 3 other songs that aren't on of the Ep, and then revisit his older albums if you like. And yes you're right, he's awesome and a very underrated musician.
@@lhm72052 ua-cam.com/video/JwmEaVjE_s4/v-deo.html
@@lhm72052 To add try to figure out his solo career!! its' really fascinating. And early-career prior to Idol. This is why they celebrate his voice- like Meatloaf said- he's real.
I was there that night. Amazing. Roger even said he’s never heard it sung like that before.
I was there. It was the most emotional and amazing performance. By the way it's Isle of Wight not Wright. Might help your searches.
Thank you John ,great video .Adam Lambert is a fantastic singer .I have just started watching him with Queen .I saw them at the Platinum show at Buck house London for the Queen .He is wonderful doing his interpretations of Freddys songs .Fits right in with the band .They did a world tour ,wonderful for Brian & Roger too .Have you seen the video of Adam singing NessaDorma . ? (hope i spelt that ok ) it is wonderful .I have bought a Cd of the live singing with Queen around the world tour .Also now Adam has brought out his New cover songs CD this February .He seems to sing in Many styles .Such a versatile voice .
I'm going to see Queen and Adam Lambert in London in 2022 and I will have a new appreciation for his talents thanks to this video! 👍
Such an incredible voice. Were he singing for any other band, people might realise it, but too many just say, “Hmph. Who does he think he is trying to replace Freddie?” and shut their minds to the possibility that Freddie (astounding as he was, no arguing that), was not the ONLY phenomenal singer to ever exist. Very very VERY few singers can sing in Queen’s vast selection of genres and styles like Freddie did, as was proven at the Tribute Concert for Freddie. Adam can.
I normally despise people who analyze performances. YOU sir are fantastic. I have actually listened to this more than once. Thank you so much for your work and expertise.
i personally love adam's voice...a super high tenor...and this coming from a steve perry fan...who i believe was the greatest sounding rock tenor around..but..yea..adam does a very good job of hitting and holding high register notes...
The absolute best singer to ever come off American Idol🎉
Adam is not kareokee, thank God. He's fantastic. Flawless.
Adam Lambert is always technically spot on. He's a genius @ singing, no doubt. That voice...
Brian said in an interview, that the moment he first heard Adam sing this, he thought Adam did a better job than Freddie live.
Roger was converted at that stage too
This one is absolutely my best favorite Queen’s song Adam sings. Gives me chills and tears me up every time I hear it even on recording. I was fortunate to see him live 3 times with Queen and 3 more on his solo tour. He’s a performer you can watch every day of the week and never get tired of. I have friends follow him all over the world. Thank you for choosing this song. He’s great in all but this one definitely stands out. I’m also happy to hear old Queen’s fan are accepting Adam to sing for Freddie and love seeing big smile on Brian’s face when they are on stage. Adam gave them the chance to be Queen again. 💕
Ah man, you gotta do more reaction videos with Adam performing with Queen. He is like no other. I saw him with Queen in Philly this past summer. Seeing Adam on tv is one thing. But seeing him live is a completely different story.
I am old enough, as well, to have seen Queen on the Day At The Races tour in 1977! I love that Roger and Brian are having fun on tour again with Adam. Some things are meant to be.
Thank you for the data on vowels. So helpful!
Wonderful analysis. Great job! Great context. Loved it!
Adam definitely brings these songs to life. You should check out Adam’s Closer to You live sessions. I’m curious to hear your interpretation/ instruction. Thanks for the info on what Adam does to make his voice so spectacular with great control and richness.
I saw Queen and Freddie when he/they came to Montreal, Canada. Indescribable! Wow
Queen Official remastered their 1981 live on stage performances at Montreal Forum a few months ago. Songs from The Game Album. Videos available on UA-cam.
I'm going to see them next June in London. My first trip abroad. I missed Queen in 1982 and I know I'll regret it if I don't ever see them, and I adore Adam. Loved him from his AI audition.
Freddie is Freddie ❤️ But Adam is Adam... He's amazing. Freddie smiles from heaven
Thanks!!! I'm not a singer, but I very much appreciate your insights! Great! Adam is amazing...
I’ve seen him live also and he is amazing. I think he’s the best ever to grace American Idol.
As an African I didn't get to listen to Freddie much before he died but Adam made listen to Queen .And now I can't stop.I agree that he is too underrated .I tend to think its because he is gay idk but Americans need to be proud of this talent. He nails every song he does. I listen to him do a cover of Cher and oh my!He is amazing ,brought me to tears too.
I don't know if it's because he's gay, because Freddie Mercury was gay and nobody cared
@@lamusiclover2264 oh well maybe its the timing and the technology.Now people can judge every move you make plus I would like to know how Freddie was .Was he flamboyant?
@@vanidiaronaldo2640 Freddie was very flamboyant at times. You should see the movie Bohemian Rhapsody
@@lamusiclover2264 I will check it out.Thanks.
Saw them in person and was amazed with the talent even tho I knew the talent on stage being there in person blew me away
Yes, Adam is unique live vocalist...
Omg... I saw them too...I’m 58...we were there ! Too cool, too cool. Thanks man.
Thank you for this review! Adam is amazing live. I saw Q+AL at the LA Forum in 2019 (my $100 tickets went up to $1500 for two after they won the Oscar but no way was I going to sell). Maybe the best concert I’ve ever attended, in the worst seats I’ve ever had lol. All 3 of them are so powerful. I went as more of a Queen fan but Adams voice brought me to tears several times, especially this song. I will cherish the memory.
First, I'm jealous you got to see Freddie live. Second, I highly recommend seeing Queen and Adam Lambert live. They are incredible.
I’ve just found this video after seeing Queen + Adam Lambert last week and I’ve just been in such awe at Adam’s vocals since then, my Queen fanaticism is spiralling into an even deeper love and Adam is such an important part of Queen’s current musical journey
I listened to the FM
Version where Brian
Opened to Keyboard
I actually think the
Isle of Wight is better
For 2 Reason First
BM Guitar is Smoother
Adam definitely has
Better Voice and Is
Able to hit the Upper
Octaves where Freddie
Compresses more.
Curious as to if You
Agree with me on
These Points thanks
I like both. The original video has a hymnal vibe, perfect in its association with the movie's leading ladies death scene. This one is haunting because it was dedicated to people who were murdered.
I like that you explain what the singer is doing, instead of just a first reaction to the song. Thank You
I've seen Queen and Adam Lambert (plus Adam's solo concerts) many times and I can say, these concerts are the best I've seen in my life. Adam is unbelievable singer, performer. You must see them, too!!! Thanks for your awesome reaction!
Im so jealous!!!😵
Still waiting for Adam to have his solo tour bec QAL wont probably come to my country, not even in my dreams. If he ever come again, i would fly even in SG or Indonesia or Taiwan, just to see him.
I have seen them in Frankfurt in 2015 and it surely was the best concert I had ever seen. Adam is just an amazing singer and performer. He makes the songs his own and he NEVER imitated Freddie.
my all-time favorite by Adam during one of his solo performances (Indianapolis 2010 - Glam Nation Live tour) is the song "Soaked" - this is where he really "performs" a song - audience is mesmerized & Simon Cowell would say "you're too theatrical"
I pray for Adam because of the pain he sings with…I hope he knows we love him ❤
He does. He talks about his fans all the time. Specially in interviews.
Hi, John--I'm revisiting this video as I do from time to time--your analysis of Adam's voice is spot on, but I think you should be aware that Adam has 4 lungs and an extra set of vocal folds that other humans do not possess. How else could he produce such sounds? But seriously, I think this is his finest performance and your reaction to it is my favorite on utube---thank you!
The rumours are it's only three lungs. 😂
Adam is flawless! he has impeccable technique!!!
Adam Lambert has such an amazing voice; and he has so obviously worked and trained his voice; and I'm still shocked that he has yet to be recognized in the United States for the unique gift he is to us with his talent. WHEN is he ever going to be given the adulation he deserves? I am not surprised that Brian and Roger gave him this chance to tour with them; they saw exactly what all of his fans saw, an amazingly talented young man!
I think wrong marketing. His management should've presented him as the best vocalist ever, not a dance/pop singer.
One of，there are some great ones out there too
@@Shrekreality I'm talking about wrong promotion and bad management from the very beginning of his career. There are other great singers for sure and no one doubts their vocal abilities. Adam Lambert still has to prove that he's a great vocalist every time he performs.....
@@lararoostalu9318 I am not American but I thought he is BIG, because everytime I watch mix vocalist videos , he is on the very top, people from all whole world praise him so much
@@Shrekreality I'm not American either. There's too much negatively towards Adam on every video....
I can always understand the words when he sings. It's very clear. Not so common.
Rare indeed!
Like Freddie....you could understand everything he sang!
"we say forever"... speak for yourself, Aussies say "foreva!"
Haha Adam Lambert is simply wow. He is the only man, the only performer who can can hold a candle to the late Freddie Mercury. I've seen him solo twice, and will see him and Queen in Sydney in February. He is amazing live. Wow...this must have been such an emotional experience in person.
And John sir, you crack me up. Regarding the bizarre sound (in everyday speaking) of pronouncing "love" like "luv"....clearly you don't hang round too many Aussies 😆
Maxine, really good point about differences in pronunciation. John's comment makes sense though as Adam is also American. He would possibly pronounce 'forever' like John.
@@lararoostalu9318 yeah, I know. It's just so funny though that we (Aussies) DO speak the same language as Americans, and the same as the Brits, the Kiwis, etc etc, but we all sound SO different from eachother. So many of these language based things are targetted at Americans-like the world forgets there are other English speakers who do not pronouce things the same way.
Never listened to him on any platform but just a few seconds in I’m already anticipating a great performance. Can’t wait to hear the rest. I can hear why Queen picked him. Just fantastic.
This is not Queen, this is Brian and Roger setting up their retirement fund
Sir Brian May and Roger Taylor are and will always be Queen. What retirement fund are you talking about?
Adam Lambert is FOREVER PART OF QUEENS HISTORY AND LEGACY along with Paul Rodgers👏.
John Deacon and Freddie Mercury's Phoenix Trust Fund benefits from Sir Brian May, Roger Taylor and Queens Management Team decision in continuing their path and passion for music. Profits from their West End Productions in UK and Las Vegas NV USA, from their collaboration with Paul Rodgers, Adam Lambert and with Kerry Ellis in select European Cities, profits from their merchandise sales as well.
ADAM IS AWESOME. HIS VOICE IS HAUNTINGLY DREAMY
All these 'He's no Freddie' - whatever. Just embrace him as a singer who can do these epic songs Justice - few could do that!!!!!
Totally agree. Adam is no Freddie as he is the first to admit, but then Freddie is no Adam. After a 6 or 7 week tour of 3 or 4 gigs a week the last note of the final gig is just as strong and long and high and powerful as the first note of the first gig. Such a dependable singer
No. Don't tell me to embrace him. He doesn't do Freddie justice at all. I don't like him. Your problem not mine.
@@middleagedwomanwithahandba2795 y'all are so fucking mad at his point lol, it's almost too funny how your emotions are blinding you from acknowledging Adam's otherworldly talent, he's technically even better and more skilled but because he's fronting an iconic singer from an iconic band y'all will try your best to shit on him, and you know what's the proof that you're so pissed and obsessed? Is that you're on a video of a vocal coach judging his vocals and it must been hard for you to see him praising Adam ;)
There's literally no other singer that could do Queen justice other than Adam, let alone the vocals but the persona itself fits with Queen, I'm pretty sure if he wasn't associated with Queen and you saw him performing his own songs you would have been impressed and amazed but holy God, hatred is blinding you due to hard emotional attachment.
Anyways, Brian thought otherwise and they're pretty sure Freddie would have loved him, keep eating yourselves.
Yes he isn't Freddie. He is Adam. He is a phenomenal singer and Brian May and Roger Taylor feel he is a worthy successor to their friend and band mate so that's all I need.
Adam Lambert is FOREVER PART OF QUEENS HISTORY AND LEGACY along with Paul Rodgers👏.
What an amazingly interesting analysis of Adam's brilliant performance! Thank you for this video.
Hello again. Can you react to QAL " The show must go on" from their live album?
It is funny that I have loved QUEEN since 1974 and I fell in love with ADAM evr since he first auditioned on the American Idol and now they are together!! I think this is kismet, meant to be from the start, I love the co operation between Queen and Adam, it´s just perfect!! No one can replace Freddie but Adam just really can fill Freddie´s boots, he IS PROUD of Adam in heaven!!!
Thank you John, this means a lot. I fell into tears when I watched the whole performance, Adam just is the BEST for Queen, I´m so proud of him and I think that so is Freddie up there in heaven! John, thank you so much for bringing this to my attention! Yours Pekka from Finland!!
I have been a queen fan since 1974 when I saw them on their first US tour with Mott, then later over the years. Who wants to live forever is my favorite song. In the Freddie era Brian (wrote) and sings the first verse (warm tone) and then Freddie (crisp tone) and just watched you critique Adam who sounds to me like a combo of both their voices. Would love to hear the differences you hear in all 3 voices as they are all singing the same vocals. I love watching you listen to Queen, you have the same smile I feel I have and am so glad they found Adam to continue playing together.
All of a sudden after responding to you this afternoon three more voice teachers showed up on UA-cam all analyzing Freddie Mercury and all 3 with big smiles while watching. You started something here! :-)
I cry ewerytime listening to this great song
Adam lambert live performances are Fantasic and leave me wanting to hear him sing again and again. Adam gives all of himself to make one feel the music. If anyone reading this has an opportunity to attend an event where Adam Lambert sings.. run don’t walk towards the event.
I listen to a lot of vocal teacher/coach reactions on you tube in my own study of vocals. So far you are the only one I have found worth listening to.
Thank you, Ed!
Can you please react to more Adam Lambert? His Live Session of 'Closer to you' from his new album Velvet is very very special.
Always get goosebumps hearing adam sing.
Love this song, what a job he does. Love him
i got chills watching and listening to him...outstanding!
I think it's time for more reactions of Adam.
Adams technique is outstanding. Rare amidst the current crop of popular music vocalists. It was evident in his first performance on idol. As a voice teacher myself it really made me sit up and listen. I have many pet hates in current vocal stylings and im glad to say he doesnt exhibit any of them !
