When Adam said that Somebody to Love was his favourite song and Roger said that it was Freddie’s favourite too you could see the sadness but joy that Freddie’s memories where being lived on through another person 😭
When Adam was on idol and Queen made a guest appearance and Adam had the privilege to sing with them for the first time, the look on their faces when Adam began singing was amazement at his performance. That's where it all began...They were lucky! Adam was too! They're so great!
I know, I don't understand some of the people who are so negative about this. It is truly a gift for all of us to be able to hear these songs live again .. and also for them to be able to play them. I am 66 years old. I know for a fact that those who criticize are young. When they are old, they will understand.
Totally agree! Queen became a band the year after I graduated high school. I loved them with Freddie. On the season Finale of Idol the year Adam was a contestant, when he sang with Queen, you could see it on the their faces how amazed they were. I wasn't surprised at all that they asked him to tour with them. They do an incredible tribute to Freddie during the shows to pay their respects to him. I, for one, am glad they chose to do the shows with Adam. Their music is incredible.
yeah you are right, sir. We should be thankful for that dude for bringing the Queen back on stage. I didn't have the opportunity to see the original Queen members on a live performance because, I was born late. I am hoping to see them live here in Philippines. I want to experience that kind of magic.
No one could ever replace Freddie but Adam has one of the best voices I’ve heard in the past 50 years and Brian & Roger knew exactly what they were doing when the asked him to front Queen. His vocal range is incredible and when he sings rock music he’s untouchable.
i hate that people think adam is trying to replace freddie. he’s clearly not, he knows he isn’t freddie, but without him, they wouldn’t have been able to tour again.
It's recipriocal, without Adam, Queen wouldn't have been on the road again, Same goes for Adam, who gets the opportunity of a life time, to collaborate with 2 wizards from the golden era and to front a band like Queen whose music is woven into the fabric of global culture, a huge honour for Adam,
Adam Lambert has been singing Queens songs since 2011 to date. There are thousands singing QUEEN songs who were never chosen to front QUEEN...of course Adam Lambert earned the right.@christineeberth8280
He said it in the interview. Look at the crowd, see how involved the crowd is. We love it. That’s what really means the most to me. I wish I could be there.
Loved Adam the moment he hit the American idol stage. Nobody thinks Freddie is replaceable, but Adam is the perfect lead singer to let Queen share their music again. I'm happy for the collaboration and that they gave each other a chance.
4:41 haha, momentary pause; glances at each other, then "I don't know that we do stay normal. I've never been normal. We're not normal." Love these guys.
Queen is amazing. For obvious reasons, Queen with Freddie will not return. But we have a Queen with Brian and Roger. These two great personalities with their extraordinary talent and skills. I thank them with all my heart that they still want to be with us . How nice to see Rufus and enjoy the passion and talent inherited from his dad. And of course, Adam is a real treasure. He doesn't pretend Freddie. He has a wonderful voice and co-creates today's Queen. Thank you Adam. :)
I saw Queen+Adam Lambert in 2014 and I went in a bit skeptical as to what it would sound like. It didn't take long for me to realize that Adam could sing the songs and sing them well. Obviously there's only one Freddie Mercury, but Adam does the songs justice. I also love his stage presence which has hints of Freddie, but make no mistake Adam is his own frontman. Brian and Roger still sound amazing and the show has a definite Queen vibe to it. I never got the chance to see Queen live, but I'm so happy I went to this show. It's something I'll never forget.
jarjon76 really proud that you opened yourself to see the greatness of Queen and their new frontman. Which has brought a smile back to Rodger and Brian. (Thanks Freddie Mercury for the greatness you created and lives on. )
I have no words to describe how I feel proud having Adam as Queen's singer. I've been at Rock in Rio Brasil's concert and it was absolutely stupendous. I'm counting the days to see them back in my country. What a concert! Long live for Queen!
@@kodiakandgrizzlybears3787 wow...his voice is ugly? In that case Brian & Roger must be absolute idiots to choose him to sing with them. Why don't you tell them this? Maybe you should front Queen then?
The people who followed Adam Lambert on American Idol, can't help but feel happy for his accomplishments ever since. He really proved himself on that journey, and the show has never been the same after him, it started dropping in popularity because no other contestant seems at all interesting since.
Never again did I watch Idol after ADAM - but followed his success and I have never been so proud of an entertainer as when he started touring with Queen. It felt he got a total reward, recognition he so deserves. Also something about Adam personally is so seductive- his voice, his looks, his personality ….this is coming from an opera loving grandma :)
No question. Freddie was a phenom both in his talent and as a person. But Adam has managed to satisfy most of the original Queen fans, and he has certainly brought in millions and millions of new fans. Asia in particular loves Adam
Freddie would LOVE Adam!! I think he has been watching from Heaven for someone to step up and nail the frontman spot for Queen for all these years. George Michael did a great job but couldn't have become a permanent frontman. Adam Lambert has just been able to step into some big shoes and DO IT!!! OK he isn't Freddie-NO-ONE could replace him,of course, but it is good to have Adam who has embraced the role, and can sing and perform.He has got better and more confident as time has gone by, and long may he continue! I saw Queen back in 1974 in Manchester and loved them ever since.So don't anyone tell me I am talking tosh!! The King is dead.Long live the Queen! I'm glad they are still playing,rather than growing roses in Hampshire!
Freddie's spirit is still alive with Queen and part of him has linked with Adam. Yet I yearn for new Queen & Adam Lambert music. So wish they would record an album together.
I am so glad they are continuing to tour with Adam. I went to the concert in Toronto a little while back and I felt like he was really channeling Freddie but at the same time, he was Adam just being amazing! I'd go see them again in a heartbeat! come back to Toronto!
Because he only mentions that People still enjoy the Music and that he sees all that happy faces, but he never mentioned that so many People enquate them like a beloved familiy member, who has always been there through the Music when nobbody else was, and how many exceptional happy filled Moments they gave us..
KreativeSpinnerin Oh alright, is just i haven't seen the full interview, but i agre with your point, but i think if get in their shoes specially Brian's i feel they're such perfectionist they don't see themselves as big demeanor or the fact that people still see them as a fmality since Mercury passed and Deacon left, and is obviously smaller audience than how they used to do back in '86 so i think, i don't know as they get older they change there way of think, i think Brian is a bit more humble, but i completely agree someone should tweet him your opinion...
I think you are right in your thoughts. They maybe such Perfectionist in Music Buisness, that they just see it as their Job and nothing else, but I would really like to let them know the fact, that they mean a lot to many fans, even if the audience got smaller, but those of us who are still Faithfull with them do Count and love the Boys for every Moment they gave us.Thank you very much:) but I think that will be very hard to let the Boys know that. Brian is much to busy, I think. But I really would like to tell them, before it would be to late....:((
I think that Adam Lambert is a good addition to Queen (note, I said "addition" not "replacement"). Reason being, he's very similar to Freddie in a lot of ways, especially in his stage presence, so he can empathize more with the band in the way that they're used to and it helps them to do their best job while he does his best job. He also brings the band into the modern era and as long as Roger and Brian are into it, they should go for it. If Freddie taught us anything, it's that we don't live forever, so while they're living they feel that this is what they should do, and the rest of us should respect their vision. They know that they aren't living in the same generation anymore, so they aren't trying to recreate the past, they're happy just to keep spreading Freddie's music in order to keep his memory alive and Adam is helping them do so.
when I heard Adam on AMERICAN Idol I said omg he can sing with someone like Queen with that voice.. And yet he didn't win AI ..but actually won more ..
+Malika Staley ConorBuckleyHoon One in a billion voice and the new generation is really lucky to experience the sacred music of Queen, " LIVE" around the world. Adam was born to entertain the WORLD with his amazing voice!!!:)
What i love the most about Roger and Brian that they still perform and do their things that they used to do in the past thats amazing love them both🙌❤️❤️
back to the 70ths when i first heard Queen w/ Freddy and now Queen will be great again w/ Adam after the hv lost Freddy....RIP Freddy, your legacy lives forever..
spectacular concert, when I hear Adam, with great memory love Freddie his voice in my mind, is fit but QUEEN IS GREAT, all right, I live in Venezuela, the are waiting, I would be a joy on the size of heaven love you.
I was very sceptical at first, but Adam has won me over! He is amazing! Saw Q+AL in London last year and seeing them in Lisbon at Rock in Rio in just a few days! :D
+Bjørn Again Thank you for giving him a chance. I must have read hundreds of review comments, YT comments, Ticketmaster reviews, etc. and I have seen less than 20 comments from actual attendees who did not like Adam. I really can't take any of these naysayer's comments seriously if they haven't seen him live. Did you know that there are now Queen fans that went to go see his solo show?
Finland are watching you guys on summer In Kaisaniemi . Queen best band forever, brian may love you, roger taylor love you, amazing voice Adam Lambert . So clean voice
I think they're to the point where they can start making some new music. I would love to see that. Not to rehash the past, but they still have the fire.
+Yummy Sounds I know that it wouldn't be quite the same without Freddie and Deacy. I think that John was a lot more important of a band member than most give him credit for. The one that was a stabilizing force for all of those creative minds. I was more saying that from the standpoint of an artist. That artistic fire in both Brian and Roger with Adam in the mix has to be put to use at some point.
If they did make some new songs then it would be alot to take it. Modern music along with a taste of the 70s and different genre's put into one. OMG IT'S GONNA BE EPIC.
Joseth, New music would be amazing! Queen + Adam have been performing worldwide for over a decade now, and have phenomenal chemistry onstage. Many fans are eagerly awaiting for collaboration on new songs.
Rehash the past???? You mean playing songs that they wrote, like every fucking band does. What a stupid thing to say really. And they have already been in the studio and tried putting stuff down and nothing was happening, so its not very likely any new music is gonna coming outta them again
Sono stupendi e umili... li amo con tutto il mio cuore! Loro due sono felici di fare ancora quello che amano fare... è il loro lavoro, la loro passione! E basta con le polemiche inutili e ripetitive! Guardate quanto sono entusiasti di Adam... felici loro, felice io!
Freddie died far to early. Tis a shame medical science did not have the cocktail of medicine back then like they now so he could have lived longer. He had such great potential to do more.
As Freddie claimed it, they, [Queen] truly are champions! To Sir Roger and Sir Brian who still have the same enthusiasm to entertain and to Sir John who chose to be private: we fans still have the same high respects for them.
I wish they were coming to the U.S. !!!!!! I missed the earlier tours and I want to see them so much!!!!! I keep checking the European tour dates and thinking I could just fly other and see them, but it just won't work. Please come to the U.S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so glad they didn't leave Queen behind once Freddie passed. Adam embodies so much of Freddie but in a way that he doesn't replace Freddie or try to be better than Freddie, he goes out there and performs in those outfits to let everyone one know that Freddie is still there with Adam and I'm sure that Bryan and Roger while playing look at Adam and can visualise Freddie.
Why don't people get it that Freddie would not want a copy or impersonation. He didn't even like singing songs live exactly as they were recorded. Adam's voice plus real life flamboyance makes him a true Queen! Bandwise and in real life! No one will ever replace Freddie and impersonation would be a sacrilege!!!
Jeezus. The Marc Martel fans needs to quit trolling these vids. Obviously Brian & Roger chose Adam over Marc so you just need to get over it. Ain't gonna happen. Marc is an impersonator and a pretty darn good one but he couldn't do a 2.5 hour show singing all these songs. I love how Brian and Roger are so vocal about their appreciation for Adam and likewise. I am so happy to see the excitement brewing for this amazing collaboration. Europeans who get to witness this perfection are so lucky. I saw QAL in Dallas and it was hands down, the best ROCK concert I have ever been to. Keep on rocking Queen + Adam Lambert!!!
They say Marc is 'better'... Better in what sense? Copying, because he sounds exactly like Freddie, down to every nuance and phrasing, even gesturing. He does them the same way Freddie did them. They love it cos he's closest sounding to Freddie they will ever get. Goodness, where is the artist's 'own artistry'? When I watch Marc's Killer Queen, I find his movements so distracting because it's like at this verse, I have to stand here, at this next verse, I stand here... It's unnatural and there's no flair... Come Show Must Go On, and there's this worried look on his face that made me feel worried whether he could hit the highest notes on the song... And then he strains and barely pulls through or at worst, he goes out of tune... Sigh... Brian n Roger are not their own tribute band and they are not performing in Vegas. They love Adam because they are thrilled with his 'interpretation' (rather than impersonation) so much so that it kicked them to give this another go. Because there're so many similarities between Adam and Freddie, Adam can do it his way and it will come off natural. Brian and Roger have said that often, backstage, when they look at Adam and think of Freddie, they feel like nothing has changed. They have a good eye for someone 'extra'ordinary, after all, they 'found' Freddie. Now, they found Adam. If people still don't believe Adam is the best fit, the proof is in the success of the concerts. Q+PR died a natural death. Q+AL just get bigger and bigger and stronger than anything they have done since Freddie!
even though adam lambert is not freddie mercury, i feel he is a freddie mercury incarnate. so i can feel he could be the next freddie mercury even though he is not freddie and adam said he doesn't want to replace him. i gave him praise for just being himself on stage with queen. still in the end, i love you freddie.
Adam will never replace Freddie but he is good in his own right and since its the real Queen doing the tribute band act ;) I cant relay argue they have certainly earned it.
Saw these guys in 2014, Adam has great vocals. However, no one has the stage presence as Freddie. He was larger than life. He struck a chord with those he touched. He will always be a legend and God of rock!!
Freddie Mercury was original and unique. Paul Rodgers is original and unique. Adam Lambert is original and unique. They are all brilliant artists 🎨👏💜🙌❤👌
I love how Brian says Adam is a gift from god! ❤ I would have to agree with him , because of Adam Queens music is able to be heard , and everyone can enjoy it ❤ I love how Adam says he's never been normal 😂😂😂
Hope that ppl stop talking about Freddie....He died 30 yrs ago. New Queen in 2020, their time not much left at 70 yrs...Enjoy while we have them around...
Es impresionante ver la cantidad de publico que asiste a sus conciertos aun sin Freddie eso solo significa una cosa que la magia de Queen no era solo Freddie y que no dejaron los demas integrantes que muriera Queen tambien con el.Y pienso tambien que por que cada cancion que interpretan esta Freddie presente en las letras de esas canciones al igual que Brian,Roger yJohn.
Para mí siempre estuvo muy claro que como la de "Heaven for Everyone" llegado el momento, en realidad quizás no hay ninguna mejor. 🙂 Bueno, salvo la de "The Miracle" dado que ambas podrían ser igual de acertadas a la vez. Heaven for Everyone siempre fue tanto "el camino", o la dirección que indicaba la brújula en todo momento, y a la vez el destino. Yo lo entendí así desde hace muchos años en realidad. Y de alguna manera, no me parecía que fuese solamente "un ojalá", sino algo más que eso.
you know what?? if queen had to continue playing ( like they do now) I believe that adam is one of the best people to take charge of the vocal part....although I don't think that he is near freddie mercury and that he should replace him cause freddie is king.......but again. ...I was really upset at first but now I am quite pleased
If Freddie were here, his loving band brothers would have never replaced him. But he is not here and this timeless music goes on. Adam was the perfect choice to make that happen. I wouldn't compare their talent. Both incredible. I am always for the original artist if he were still here. I love Adam's talent and persona. Saw them live 2 summers ago. it was incredible.
+Dream On wow you are so lucky !!! yes , although I was really frustrated at first, now I am sure that nobody could be better option for the vocal part....he has a beautiful voice...and I am happy that they actually didn't replace freddie as its Queen + adam lambert and not Queen

It's ironic that the grey hair made him look younger...
Adam is AMAZING.
spectacular concert, when I hear Adam, with great memory love Freddie his voice in my mind, is fit but QUEEN IS GREAT, all right, I live in Venezuela, the are waiting, I would be a joy on the size of heaven love you.
I was very sceptical at first, but Adam has won me over! He is amazing! Saw Q+AL in London last year and seeing them in Lisbon at Rock in Rio in just a few days! :D
+Bjørn Again Thank you for giving him a chance. I must have read hundreds of review comments, YT comments, Ticketmaster reviews, etc. and I have seen less than 20 comments from actual attendees who did not like Adam. I really can't take any of these naysayer's comments seriously if they haven't seen him live. Did you know that there are now Queen fans that went to go see his solo show?
Same. I saw Queen + Adam Lambert in Kansas City on 9 July, 2017 and Lambert's vocals were fantastic.
Finland are watching you guys on summer In Kaisaniemi . Queen best band forever, brian may love you, roger taylor love you, amazing voice Adam Lambert . So clean voice
Queen.. Is legendary.. Forever together
Adam looks so good with silver hair. I can't 😍
Lovely! It still give me chills to see footage of the RiR night! I can't believe I was there!
Adam is doing a great job, and i'm glad Brain and Roger are stil playing Live. See you guys next friday in Cologne.
I think they're to the point where they can start making some new music. I would love to see that. Not to rehash the past, but they still have the fire.
They do but i don't think it would be as catchy or popular, i mean since Deacon and Freddie are not there, that je ne se qua is long gone...
+Yummy Sounds I know that it wouldn't be quite the same without Freddie and Deacy. I think that John was a lot more important of a band member than most give him credit for. The one that was a stabilizing force for all of those creative minds. I was more saying that from the standpoint of an artist. That artistic fire in both Brian and Roger with Adam in the mix has to be put to use at some point.
If they did make some new songs then it would be alot to take it. Modern music along with a taste of the 70s and different genre's put into one. OMG IT'S GONNA BE EPIC.
Joseth, New music would be amazing! Queen + Adam have been performing worldwide for over a decade now, and have phenomenal chemistry onstage. Many fans are eagerly awaiting for collaboration on new songs.
Rehash the past???? You mean playing songs that they wrote, like every fucking band does. What a stupid thing to say really. And they have already been in the studio and tried putting stuff down and nothing was happening, so its not very likely any new music is gonna coming outta them again
I love all of you and I'm so glad you are playing again!! Rock on!!
such a good match. Queen and Adam
QUEEN FOREVER!!!.
..INCLUDING ADAM!!
I love everything about this. I wish they would come back to the states as well.
Me tooo! I want a US tour so bad ;(
Never stop loving!
I'm crying
I read your comment at the beginning of the video, and thought...crying? What for?
The video hits 5:15 and I'm crying too!
Absolutely genius! So great this is happening.
Sono stupendi e umili... li amo con tutto il mio cuore! Loro due sono felici di fare ancora quello che amano fare... è il loro lavoro, la loro passione! E basta con le polemiche inutili e ripetitive! Guardate quanto sono entusiasti di Adam... felici loro, felice io!
All I can say is that Freddie would have adored Adam! No doubt at all! Peace.
Freddy will just said one effing request " Adam dont make my music bored"😂
Queen has never been the same since Freddie Mercury has passed on.
agreed
Freddie died far to early. Tis a shame medical science did not have the cocktail of medicine back then like they now so he could have lived longer. He had such great potential to do more.
+Georgia Ayres It's great that Roger and Brian want to keep performing and as Brian & Roger say all the time Adam is a gift from God.
+Georgia Ayres No shit sherlock
I am sticking to my guns. No one is changing my mind. Freddie Mecury can NEVER be replaced by anyone, regardless of talent.
its amazing how things worked out :')
long live queen forever in our lifes
As Freddie claimed it, they, [Queen] truly are champions! To Sir Roger and Sir Brian who still have the same enthusiasm to entertain and to Sir John who chose to be private: we fans still have the same high respects for them.
and he has a great voice
I soooo much love QUEEN!!! I do miss Freddy very much but they are keeping his memory alive. I just love them!
Adam is so beautiful. His voice is otherworldly. 😍 It's not fair to be so talented Adam! Leave something for the others.... 😅
I wish they were coming to the U.S. !!!!!! I missed the earlier tours and I want to see them so much!!!!! I keep checking the European tour dates and thinking I could just fly other and see them, but it just won't work. Please come to the U.S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so glad they didn't leave Queen behind once Freddie passed. Adam embodies so much of Freddie but in a way that he doesn't replace Freddie or try to be better than Freddie, he goes out there and performs in those outfits to let everyone one know that Freddie is still there with Adam and I'm sure that Bryan and Roger while playing look at Adam and can visualise Freddie.
Why don't people get it that Freddie would not want a copy or impersonation. He didn't even like singing songs live exactly as they were recorded. Adam's voice plus real life flamboyance makes him a true Queen! Bandwise and in real life! No one will ever replace Freddie and impersonation would be a sacrilege!!!
Queenbert is LIFE!
Jeezus. The Marc Martel fans needs to quit trolling these vids. Obviously Brian & Roger chose Adam over Marc so you just need to get over it. Ain't gonna happen. Marc is an impersonator and a pretty darn good one but he couldn't do a 2.5 hour show singing all these songs. I love how Brian and Roger are so vocal about their appreciation for Adam and likewise. I am so happy to see the excitement brewing for this amazing collaboration. Europeans who get to witness this perfection are so lucky. I saw QAL in Dallas and it was hands down, the best ROCK concert I have ever been to. Keep on rocking Queen + Adam Lambert!!!
They say Marc is 'better'... Better in what sense? Copying, because he sounds exactly like Freddie, down to every nuance and phrasing, even gesturing. He does them the same way Freddie did them. They love it cos he's closest sounding to Freddie they will ever get. Goodness, where is the artist's 'own artistry'? When I watch Marc's Killer Queen, I find his movements so distracting because it's like at this verse, I have to stand here, at this next verse, I stand here... It's unnatural and there's no flair... Come Show Must Go On, and there's this worried look on his face that made me feel worried whether he could hit the highest notes on the song... And then he strains and barely pulls through or at worst, he goes out of tune... Sigh... Brian n Roger are not their own tribute band and they are not performing in Vegas. They love Adam because they are thrilled with his 'interpretation' (rather than impersonation) so much so that it kicked them to give this another go. Because there're so many similarities between Adam and Freddie, Adam can do it his way and it will come off natural. Brian and Roger have said that often, backstage, when they look at Adam and think of Freddie, they feel like nothing has changed. They have a good eye for someone 'extra'ordinary, after all, they 'found' Freddie. Now, they found Adam. If people still don't believe Adam is the best fit, the proof is in the success of the concerts. Q+PR died a natural death. Q+AL just get bigger and bigger and stronger than anything they have done since Freddie!
+pinkmilkyway milk I love your comment, so eloquently stated! MWAH!
wrong. marc martel is better.
LOL .... you are wrong
Chris Choi to each his own
Their last tour was fabulous (saw 3 shows) so expect this one to be great also
Queen still going strong
Adam is great
even though adam lambert is not freddie mercury, i feel he is a freddie mercury incarnate. so i can feel he could be the next freddie mercury even though he is not freddie and adam said he doesn't want to replace him. i gave him praise for just being himself on stage with queen. still in the end, i love you freddie.
Adam will never replace Freddie but he is good in his own right and since its the real Queen doing the tribute band act ;) I cant relay argue they have certainly earned it.
Agreed
Agree
Freddie will love this man.
QUEEN FOREVER!!
Adam looks like a big cat at the end. Freddie loved cats!
More awesome videos from amazing Queen
QUEEN POSTED ANOTHER GUY IS MAKING ME CRY! ADAM SPENT 4 YEARS OF HIS LIFE WITH U GUYS!!!
Saw these guys in 2014, Adam has great vocals. However, no one has the stage presence as Freddie. He was larger than life. He struck a chord with those he touched. He will always be a legend and God of rock!!
Freddie Mercury was original and unique.
Paul Rodgers is original and unique.
Adam Lambert is original and unique.
They are all brilliant artists 🎨👏💜🙌❤👌
@@doloresweatherspoon2727 well that goes without saying. I was merely stating how I feel. You don't like my comment, you can scroll on by!!
@@KrisWolf4 there's absolutely nothing wrong with your comment. I didn't dispute it. I try to honor Paul and Adam's contributions, that's all.
i'm 10 but i still love queen rip queen:(
I love how Brian says Adam is a gift from god! ❤ I would have to agree with him , because of Adam Queens music is able to be heard , and everyone can enjoy it ❤
I love how Adam says he's never been normal 😂😂😂
Adaaaaam...!😍😍😍😍😍
The legacy must continue
Roger es encantador🥰no puedo dejar de mirarlo😍😍😍😍😍 🥰🥰🥰 El más lindo de Queen🤩🤩🤩🤩
Adam is the only person who can stand in there for Freddie
Yes. Adam is fabulous and he is doing a great job.
Hope that ppl stop talking about Freddie....He died 30 yrs ago. New Queen in 2020, their time not much left at 70 yrs...Enjoy while we have them around...
Es impresionante ver la cantidad de publico que asiste a sus conciertos aun sin Freddie eso solo significa una cosa que la magia de Queen no era solo Freddie y que no dejaron los demas integrantes que muriera Queen tambien con el.Y pienso tambien que por que cada cancion que interpretan esta Freddie presente en las letras de esas canciones al igual que Brian,Roger yJohn.
Para mí siempre estuvo muy claro que como la de "Heaven for Everyone" llegado el momento,
en realidad quizás no hay ninguna mejor. 🙂
Bueno, salvo la de "The Miracle" dado que ambas podrían ser igual de acertadas a la vez.
Heaven for Everyone siempre fue tanto "el camino", o la dirección que indicaba la brújula en todo momento,
y a la vez el destino.
Yo lo entendí así desde hace muchos años en realidad.
Y de alguna manera, no me parecía que fuese solamente "un ojalá", sino algo más que eso.
They have still got it!
you know what?? if queen had to continue playing ( like they do now) I believe that adam is one of the best people to take charge of the vocal part....although I don't think that he is near freddie mercury and that he should replace him cause freddie is king.......but again. ...I was really upset at first but now I am quite pleased
If Freddie were here, his loving band brothers would have never replaced him. But he is not here and this timeless music goes on. Adam was the perfect choice to make that happen. I wouldn't compare their talent. Both incredible. I am always for the original artist if he were still here. I love Adam's talent and persona. Saw them live 2 summers ago. it was incredible.
+Dream On wow you are so lucky !!! yes , although I was really frustrated at first, now I am sure that nobody could be better option for the vocal part....he has a beautiful voice...and I am happy that they actually didn't replace freddie as its Queen + adam lambert and not Queen
+Dream On if he was still here, he would have still been singing for them
xristina papadopoulou I BET YOU, a dumbass will say "marc martel"
IloveyouQueen❤❤❤
😢😢😢😢I LOVE YOU #QUEENFOREVER 😢😢💖 I miss Freddie😢💔
Blessings😘😢
I Love that crown!!!!!
