Adam Lambert Chats About His Las Vegas Residency With Queen
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 тра 2018
- After blowing everyone away on the eighth season of "American Idol," Adam Lambert went on to release his debut album "For Your Entertainment" which included the international hit "Whatya Want From Me" and earned him a Grammy Award nomination. Adam followed this success with his second album "Trespassing" which became the first album to reach the number one spot in the US and Canada by an openly gay artist. His highly anticipated third album "The Original High" was his first for Warner Bros Records which was executive produced by Max Martin and Shellback and included the smash hit "Ghost Town." Adam joined the cast of "Glee "for a six-episode story in 2013 and performed the role of Eddie in FOX’s "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." He went on to judge on "The X Factor Australia" where his artist, Isaiah, won the show. Adam has been touring as the lead singer of Queen (Queen + Adam Lambert) since 2012, including two huge world arena tours which sold out in minutes and gained critical acclaim. 2018 sees Adam continuing to tour the arenas of the world with Queen, alongside recording his fourth album coming soon.

I'm a long time Queen fan. I don't understand the hatred shown by some purist Queen fans towards this guy. To say "He's no Freddie Mercury" is to repeat something everyone already knows. No shit. No one has ever claimed that he IS Freddie Mercury or is REPLACING Freddie Mercury. He merely succeeds Freddie as being the lead vocalist. Also, some Queen fans berated Brian and Roger for choosing to continue Queen without Freddie. This is a stupid criticism. Why shouldn't they? Queen was equal parts Freddie, Brian, Roger, and John. They have every right to continue. Also, why deprive younger generations from hearing some remnant of Queen? There's no doubt this revival of Queen long after Freddie's death has definitely given a new lease of life to classic Queen tracks. Personally, I think Adam is good a character and has great signing ability. I wish Queen + Adam Lambert the best and hope soon to see them live in the flesh myself.

I am with you 1.000. 000 % or more ... bravo !
Thundaga - agree completely! Wish we could do without hate from so-called "purists"! Of course he's no "Freddie Mercury", but that's not the point! He's a worthy front-man for Queen, and I don't mean that as a replacement for Freddie! What I totally respect is Brian May and Roger Taylor looking for somebody who has the vocal power and range of Freddie, and their own flamboyance/charisma to command the entire audience, as opposed to being a mere mimic! I like Marc Martell too, believe he is more than a mere mimic, and though he may vocally resemble Freddie more than Adam does, both of them have their own strengths to bring to the world of Queen.
*For live performances:* I'd prefer Lambert (just watch him wow the crowd!)
*For vocal fill-ins (example: when no original source exists with Freddie's voice), like for the upcoming movie Bohemian Rhapsody:* I'd prefer Marc Martell (you'd want a very close vocal resemblance to use in a movie like that). Anybody see that video where Marc performs Queen for Celine Dion, and she does a double take when she first hears his voice? lol!
*For jaw-dropping surprise:* James Cordon. Lol I am totally joking here, but watch that clip with Cordon vs. Lambert and Queen. I was really impressed with Cordon! Got a great laugh out of the whole clip! You will too! Cordon, Lambert, Taylor, and May were such great sports!
So I like both Adam and Marc, for these various reasons. There are more important issues to spend time argue about, than whether Adam is a good replacement for Freddie, or whether Adam is better than Marc. These are just my own opinions though, and won't knock other people's opinions that differ. Not worth wasting that energy.
One big thing to remember though, is that people like Lambert and Martell allow what remains of Queen to perform live today. Brian and Roger won't be around forever, and after they are gone, there will be no more live performances! So I have such support and respect for Brian and Roger!
rieyuki I agree with everything you said except that : *Only* Adam allows Bri and Roger to perform today, in fact they perform only because of him. Brian has said this in a lot of interviews. If they need a similar voice for some side derivative project they can use whomever is best suited. Adam revived the live shows in the most worthy scope and level. NO-ONE else has done that ( P. Rodgers started it but it wasn't the best match with the best results)
peter pan Yeah, Paul is great with Bad Company but it didn't mesh with Queen
well said !
I have a lot respect for Adam because his intelligence and sensibility! He’s a great singer, nice performer and a lovely person!!
I agree with you. In his interviews, he's very intelligent about his answers and is very caring about other people.
Mercury was dead and the group needed a singer to replace him Adam came along and the remaining guys in the group thought he was good enough to sing all of Mercury’s songs, so he was invited onboard. So far, he has done incredibly well and Mercury up there would have been glad. And all you Queen and Mercury fans, please stop badmouthing him. The show must go on and without a singer, Queen won’t ‘function’. He said that he was not mimicking Mercury, he was Adam Lambert. So please let him do the job and enjoy Queen.. Finally, to those who don’t like him, I have this to say ‘ don’t listen ‘
Brilliant singer wow just so glad they got back together and got a amazing singer love him can’t wait to see him in Manchester Arena in June 😀he’s a gorgeous and lovely man
Well said! QAL for ever! ❤️🎸❤️🥢❤️🎤
He’s fantastic.
👌👌👌👌👌👏👏👏
ABSOLUTELY AGREE!!!! I have never watched American Idol, but I have liked Queen for decades even if I was too young to know who Freddie was when he passed. Seeing Freddie would have been great, but Adam allowed me to see Queen in ANY FORM! And it was a great show. ❤❤❤❤
It's of course the private matter of the Lambert family but I do have the feeling that Adam was a very loved and supported child. He has so many positive assets it's almost unreal and along with his amazing good looks: how could 1 person have so many gifts? I hope this comes along with happiness in his private life, too.
On top of being super talented with a voice that kills, Adam seems to be a genuinely nice guy with no pretenses or inflated ego. If he stays this way there's no stopping him.
listening to Adam talk is almost as good as listening to him sing live ♥
So agree with this statement.
Yes, he seems a lovely guy with a cheeky side. I can listen to him sing and chat all day.
Adam's paent did a fabulous job o raising this artist, accepting his style life. He reflects their love for him, no airs, a very hard working person, thank his parents.
He's an amazing talented, genuine and intelligent singer. He deserved every success he gets, what a sweetheart.
I was never a Freddie fan. But did enjoy some of the songs. This young man seems perfect for this role. He doesn't pretend to be freddie. He is great front man. And also a excellent performer in his own right.
This is proof that Adam''s fans are as fantastic as he is! What lovely people asking questions!
@@१
I can't even comprehend the admiration i have for Adam.He's just the best.
I watched queen in manchester Adam has a huge set of pipes.
Unreal.
I read that Adam's voice was drowning out the music once. Now that is power!
Adam's vocals are powerful. He can't be compared to anyone. I was fortunate to see/hear him in person and honestly if you think he sounds great on his CDs you will be blown away hearing him in person. I wish Brian May and Roger Taylor could be on some of his songs for his new album.
I thought so too - until I found someone who, while maybe not better, is his equal. Listen to Jung Dong ha sing Soliloquy. He is a Korean singer, started fronting BooHwal, (a Korean version of Queen), has since gone solo and can sing ANYTHING - opera, plays, ballads, rock. When I first heard him he reminded me of AL. BTW, Korean songs are amazing.
Thank you Christine - I'll check him out :). It's always great to hear good vocals and discover someone new!
Christine Richards why are you commenting several times on an Adam video and pimping some other singer? You did that to me too... The you tube comment section is full of psychology study cases..
Who cares? Why don't you go on his videos?
He’s so sure of himself, it’s beautiful and powerful.
I could listen to Adam talk forever, he's very intellectual. Thank you so much for this interview ❤️❤️❤️
Love hearing Adam’s eloquently answering questions. He is so smart and true to himself and bonus is being Handsome. Love his personality more his eyes!
Adam you are so special . You are for real not a fake bone in you're body. Handsome and those eyes are to die for. I can listen to your voice exclusively it is just that good. Thank you for entertaining us .
Adam is a special guy, super talented in everyway
He’s s very articulate person. I can see many careers he can do in his long life. So talented and looks too.
What a great interview. I especially liked the questions that sparked some more intimate information from Adam that we don't usually hear from artists. That struggle of being gay in the music industry 10 years ago was enlightenting
As a lifelong Queen fan I`m just happy they are still performing, even if it has to be without Freddie. I saw this show a few months ago in DC, and it was awesome. I love Adam Lambert with them. He has a great voice, and obviously a great personality.
Great voice and I love his eyes!
Adam has never said he was another Freddie or trying to replace him he does his own twist to the Queen song
Saw the show in Las Vegas. it was amazing. And he says he is no Freddy. No one can replace him but he did a great job.
Adam is amazing and perfect in every way.
This interview was a good one to watch. The interviewer seemed very interested on Adam and everything. Keep on up with the good work!
Great interview! Adam Lambert is really eloquent and worth listening to - his perspective is truly unique. It was really interesting to hear an in-depth conversation about his journey.
The questions were so great.
Adam is an awesome performer and singer perfect for Queen .
I've been impressed with all his albums and songs. He sings so well that I believe his songs should be more commercially successful.
I agree, but I think he needs better manager . He sings as Queens frontman , but his own career is a bit off. For his talent and voice he should be more famous . He could be Rock superstar and his own music is leaning towards pop because his manager thinks it sells better. It feels like he is held back and putting off his own career to be with Queen. A lot of people doesn't even know that Queen is back and has been for a while now. There should be new CD's sold with Adam , there should be bigger social media coverage for the band and Adam personally. More singles Coming out with more videos with less brakes between them. World needs to know who Adam Lambert is like they know who Pink is or Brian Adams. He deserves it.
@@UrbanNekoDesigns I agree Adam should be a bigger star. Who is his manager anyway? I also think Adam would be a fantastic actor. That tiny scene he did in BH did not do much for him. I guess they did not want to make the movie about him they covered him up and disguised him as that trucker if they had let all gorgeousness out us Glamberts would have lost our minds I can see him being a great actor one day. Everything he does he does well. He takes his work seriously.
I've watched this interview over 10 times..it is definitely one of my faves. .Love Adam Lambert SO MUCH!! But also props to the host..I LOVE his questions.. I loved that he didn't ask the same boring questions but and I am sure Adam appreciated this as well. He seemed so animated and happy...😊👍
one of the best interviews i've ever watched.adam is so eloquent.he's so interesting i didn't even noticed 30minutes had passed cause i could listen to him forever.
That was the most brilliant and accurate explanation of performing I've ever heard. Like I need another reason to adore this man. He's spectacular. ❤
I was six when I first heard his music. Rediscovered him a year and a half ago! ❤
this is one of the best interviews I've seen, guy asks all the questions I've wondered myself
I’m glad Queens music will be heard today and Adam Lambert is an awesome front man
Just love this guy! So nice. So talented. Just a sweetheart.
I enjoyed watching Adam and listening to him talk about himself and his music, keep up the good work Adam and looking forward to seeing you one day live .💋💖🙏
Such a great fun interview. Adam Lambert is the most stunning man and the best best singer alive!! 😍
I thought so too - but listen to Jung Dong ha singing Soliloquy on UA-cam. He's Korean and amazing.
Christine Richards thanks, I'm good with this... ua-cam.com/video/XEul1qX49UI/v-deo.html
But this is a video about Adam. Why should anyone be advertising other artists on another artists video? If you are a fan of the other person, go onto their videos. I don't need to be told who to listen to. Adam is all I need. Again this is his fuckin' video.
Christine Richards ... He may be a good singer ... but he's NOT "ADAM LAMBERT"!! ADAM is Unique & Incomparable & GORGEOUS!! ... LAMBERT Outlaw
I second that! Lol
This is one of the best interviews I have heard. Very original and relevant questions.
I'm very impressed with Adam over the years. He did seem a bit bizarre on American Idol, but in reality, he's a pretty centered guy. But, what I like the best about him is how nice he is. Love that he's with Queen. While he's not Freddie Mercury, he has a great voice and it plays well with Queen. I hope he continues to do well.
And, who out there knows that he is really a blonde???
Not blond actually, he's a redhead.
he's so damn smart and super nice too 😊
Was fortunate to see Adam with Queen in Calgary Alberta. Truly an amazing performer.
This interview was so great, he is one of the most genuine ppl in pop music, just love him!❤️❤️❤️
I love Adam Lambert! Great person, performer and singer. I got to see him in concert and it was amazing! I voted for him when he was on Idol. I do have to say though that the interviewer is terrific. Finally an interviewer who allows the person to answer without interruptions. No host trying to be funny and perform for the camera. Finally some wonderful questions were wonderfully answered. Very well done sir, very well done!
I've strangely been putting off watching this since it came out (almost a year ago) but I find I'm just as enamoured with him as I've always been. And he's right, the industry is so different to how it was when he started, and as someone who's been around since 2010 it's so interesting to hear how he sees what happened back then from the perspective of today. You can always speculate but it's good to hear how he personally remembers it. I can't wait to hear his new project.
Great interview with so much insights! He’s such a beautiful person and beautiful soul, super talented, hardworking, positive, real & humble. Such a great man to look up to. Adam has my support til the end of time 💕
i love Adam's voice. We went to the same high school MCHS!!! i just checked the prices for Park tickets; I cannot afford to go :( I would LOVE to see Adam sing live....his voice is THE VOICE of Queen and his own songs go through my head....especially the song, "if i had you".
Im with you i wish their tickets were more reasonable
Adam brings Roger and Bri a wonderful new refreshing flair! Adam and Freddie sure mastered voice and compliment the band!
Hey I like the way he keeps on smiling, he is humble 💟
It would be interesting to hear a New Queen and Adam Lambert album. If not a Live album would be great too.
These fans were all so respectful and actually cared about Adam enough to not pressure him with anything. It's so refreshing to see.
he is UNMATCHED in music today, so insanely talented
I agree, but I think he needs better manager . He sings as Queens frontman , but his own career is a bit off. For his talent and voice he should be more famous . He could be Rock superstar and his own music is leaning towards pop because his manager thinks it sells better. It feels like he is held back and putting off his own career to be with Queen.

World needs to know who Adam Lambert is like they know who Pink is or Brian Adams. He deserves it.
YEESSS. UNMATCHED!!!
@@mmcken3354 "UNMATCHED". Are you serious. Adam is a standard broadway singer and could be replaced any moment and the audience won't notice.
MalsDoxy Glambert Exactly
@Killsocialmedia you ever see him LIVE??
and it all started with his bohemian rhapsody audition. what a dream come true for anyone.
His description of his new album reminds me of Trespassing. I'm so excited.
This is so interesting to watch after Velvet Side A dropped
Adam, you with Queen is so amazing. Saw this concert and it was the best I have ever seen!
This was a good interview. Interesting and provocative questions, with Adam really going deep in his answers. I think this collaboration between Queen and Adam is staggering. Consummate musicians making some of the best music ever. I grew up in rock n roll in the 60s and 70s, but was not a Queen fan until they got together with Adam. He's a singer like no other, just as Freddie was.
I wish I'm at least half this articulate 😭💕
He speaks so intelligent 💕
Love his voice, love his style and really liked this interview especially the Q and A at the end. He answers frankly, honestly and very naturally. I really like him. Thankyou
Fantastic interview. I love the longer format. So happy to hear he has new music coming out by end of year. Surprised nobody asked him if he will ever record an album with Queen! It’s seems so obvious! I’ve been a fan of them since the early days and their working together really works. Fingers crossed that it will someday happen.
Hugely talented, bless him
I would love some Queen and Adam recordings to purchase!!!
beautyjunkie Wouldn't we all? I've been saying that on QAL Fans United 2 for years! That Rock Big Ben gig in 2014/15 SHOULD have been an official DVD.
This Interview Is Everything! 👏👏👏👏
Aaah so great to hear the QUEEN still continuing with Adam Lambert as the lead singer. Adam is a good singer. I believe Freddy Mercury’s spirit wouldn’t mind seeing him with QUEEN
Loved him in American Idol, didn’t matter he didn’t win he had bigger and better things planned.
He is such a nice guy
I have already got tickets for September. I have seen Adam once but never QUEEN! This will be so much fun! I LOVE Adam ever since AI days.
Just adore Adam. Been a fan since his Idol audition. I know it's silly and I know Adam is long, long over it all, but I am STILL PISSED he lost to that other guy who didn't have even a gnat's worth of Adam's talent. 😠😠 And we all know why. In today's world, Adam would have won, hands down, walking away. Wishing him all the best in Las Vegas. It looks wonderful!
R. McBride yessss I still think about that to this day. He's totally over it but we're over here like why?! But to be fair I haven't heard anything from the winner ..just from Adam so whose the real winner here?
I agree. I don't even remember the other guy's name, off hand. I'd have to look it up. I almost feel sorry for him. He knew he shouldn't have won. You could see it in his eyes.
R. McBride Kris Allen was his name. Watching the finale now is so sad I think Kris looked like he felt bad cause he knew Adam deserved it. But I'm just glad they we're both mature about it and the show must go on.
I have a theory which I think has been mentioned before. The producers knew as the show progressed that Adam was destined for worldwide fame. His talent is so much bigger than a manufactured TV show and an Idol contract would have held him back from what he achieved after the show finished.
jennshappyplace ooh I haven't heard that interesting. The only theory I've heard was Kris Allen only won cause they gave out free phones to where he was from or something and told them to vote. I'm not sure if that's true or not but it is interesting.
Saw opening night in Vegas; Adam was amazing! If Freddie heard someone say, "He's no Freddie." I'm certain he'd reply, "Fu#* You darling!"
I love that! 😂
🤗😍 👌
You rocked it as you do every performance, you are a rock God right now! I can’t get enough of you.
Adam is such an awesome person and he's hot looking. Saw the concert in Vegas--- best show!! Looking forward to seeing Adam again.
What a wonderful interview. You could tell they were both so laid-back and comfortable with each other. Absolutely enjoyed watching this. 🖤
I think he needs better manager and PR. He sings as Queens frontman , but his own career is a bit off. For his talent and voice he should be more famous . He could be Rock superstar and his own music is leaning towards pop because his manager thinks it sells better. It feels like he is held back and putting off his own career to be with Queen. A lot of people doesn't even know that Queen is back and has been for a while now. There should be new CD's sold with Adam , there should be bigger social media coverage for the band and Adam personally. More singles Coming out with more videos with less brakes between them. World needs to know who Adam Lambert is like they know who Pink is or Brian Adams. He deserves it. I hope his new Album is more him .
Anvi Green - Fortunately, Adam’s gonna be around for as long as he wants to be singing and performing, and I think he’s the type of artist who’s gonna have loyal fans forever...and probably be gaining new ones all the time, as they discover how amazing he is. He just keeps getting better. It’s the beauty of being a perfectionist.
This so much. He should be a rock superstar in the mainstream. Sorta like what Brandon Urie did with Panic at the Disco's latest stuff.
His musical ability and how he understands music and makes it his own style... Just let him do that and people will buy it because he's amazing. But he's only done pop stuff really. He could do INCREDIBLE things with music and performance with his talent. His diversity was one of the best things I saw on idol
Some people think that adam is replacing Freddie, but no one ever said that it's like that. The other members of Queen even said, that they like, that Adam is being himself and is not tying to replace or imitate Freddie, and that's why they probably choose him. Of course no one can sing like Freddie, or replace him.
Thank you so much for this! Adam is incredible! ❤️❤️❤️
He is Adam Lambert he is awesome
wish to see him strong for good.Love Queen and you, always
I really enjoy listening to Adam and it changed my mind about how he's perceived in the public! His voice is incredible and I love listening to him speak as well now! Thank you Adam so much for your Sensibility and you express yourself extremely well I appreciate that.
This was an outstanding interview .....
Very friendly and very good interwiew !!!!!!

Adam is fabulous.
Love Adam and Queen!!
Just came across this fantastic interview. Great questions to actually get to know Adam as a person. I could listen to Adam talk all day long. He speaks so eloquently. You can tell that everything he says is true and from the heart. No hesitation in his responses. He is so humble. He doesn't try to praise himself like he is some kind of rock God. He doesn't think he is better than other singers. He praises other singers. When he does a duet with other singers he respects them and doesn't try to out sing them. He is down to earth and so honest. He has matured into a beautiful person. When he sang Believe at the Kennedy Center to honor Cher. My heart melted. He sang that so perfect and beautifully. He has my total respect as a person and performer. Thank you Adam.
I love this interview! Thanks so much. Je t'aime Adam!
Can't wait to see you in Vegas!!!
He's one of those who have immense talent. Hope he'll collaborate with Hayley Williams of Paramore. They'll be amazing singing together. ♥
Love him the best
Best Adam Lambert interview by far.
Grandmothers for Adam!! :)
Can we just give it up for this interviewer? He asked excellent questions. Adam is incredibly self-aware, grounded and plain ol' NICE!
Yes! I agree. Excellent questions. It's my second time watching, but will definitely watch again!
Thank you for sharing 😘❤
GREAT interview!!! Thank you.
Looking foward to many years of being entertained by this superstar. I knew he was gonna make it big the first time I ever heard/saw him perform. You go boiiii!!!
We are going September 8.. Wow. It was not that expensive for middle seats.
Glad to see you ADAM~~~
Adam Lambert is now incredible singer ever
Great talk Adam Lambert thanks again for your time
Eloquently spoken..... great.
This is the best interview I’ve ever seen with Adam. Great job
Great interview! 👍Everything you wanted to know about Adam Lambert and were Not afraid to ask! Please don't change..
