Queen and Adam Lambert performing Who Wants To Live Forever at the Isle of Wight Festival 2016 is a must see performance! Love your reactions and explanations. Thank you Sir Hairless,
That is one of the most incredible vocals by anyone, ever! You forget he is doing it live and outdoors. Adam is incredible.
I second this recommendation! Just fantastic, glad you are covering Adam on your channel!
I hadn’t seen it so I pulled it up on YT and you’re right - that was just awesome. WOW - such feeling.❤
Yes, please! It is really amazing!
Yes!
Sir,I cannot overstate how much I cherish your analysis and reactions! This was great. Please consider Adam's version of Who Wants To Live Forever from his concert with Queen in the Isle of Wight which took place the day after the massacre at the Pulse Nightclub in Orlando Florida. Adam dedicated the song to the victims and it's extremely moving. Thanks again, from a fan in Las Vegas! ❤ 👍
Thank you Who Wants To Live Forever is on my list for future reactions It's been recommended to me a fair few times now!
The little percussive sounding breath adds such emotion for me, like when you are about to cry. So powerful -- and it seems to have gotten to Cher, too. Adam is one of the greatest voices in the world today.
🌟I have been an Adam Lambert fan since he was on American Idol 2008.
I'm a Glambert (as well as a Pentaholic).
I've seen Adam in concert 12 times, he is AMAZING!!!
Adam is such an INCREDIBLE vocalist and performer EXTREMELY charasmatic A voice that comes once in a lifetime (as per Brain May of Queen) Brian also calls him a Gift From God!
Brian May and Roger Taylor ABSOLUTELY LOVE HIM!!
Adam has EXCELLENT vocal control 🌟
12 times! Wow
He and the arrangement made that song. Cher was so impressed and loved it.
Could not click fast enough! Once again I have heard this and watched this a million times and yet learned so much about it from you? Adam is another vocalist I have followed since the beginning, which for me was American Idol. And then, of course, he steps in as the front man for my favorite band Queen, while still doing his solo work, so of course I am very familiar with Adam Lambert. Described by Simon Cowell after his appearance on AGT singing Chandelier by Sia as “the nicest guy in Hollywood” in a throw back moment to American Idol but positive this time I think says a lot. He is so underrated it is unreal. We have gone through some growing pains with the entire Queen situation but he has been so kind and gracious about never stepping in as Freddie that over the years the vast majority have finally accepted him. He sings Queen songs wonderfully too. There is a documentary, available on UA-cam about that entire process which is fascinating, both from Queen’s perspective and Adam’s perspective. Asked in an interview the difference between his Solo touring and his Queen touring and he said, well with my Solo work I travel on a tour bus but with Queen we travel on private jets. 😂 He is remarkable in so many ways. I will stop now!
Thanks SH! T ✌🏻
Thanks for the background info! Always useful for when I get round to him singing Queen, with Queen
I've always said that the best thing that happened to Adam Lambert was he did not win American Idol because that allowed him to build the career that he wanted rather than be marketed as a AI pop singer. Even with that statement, I think his rendition of Mad World on AI is remarkable and an indication of things to come.
I loved his rendition of that - I also really liked his very odd change-up of "Ring of Fire." 🙂
Superb! He also sang "I got you babe" there with Cyndi Lauper. It's with excellent reason that Queen guitarist Dr. Sir Brian May calls Adam the GFG (Gift from God)! In 2019 during the first American branch of their Rhapsody Tour, Brian and Roger Taylor started calling Adam their "new/slightly younger brother"! There is no arguing with that! He's been singing with Queen for all these years and he still has these moments where he hits those stratospheric notes and Brian and Roger have these looks on their faces that are a mix of astonishment/surprise and such love and pride for him and they are grinning from ear to ear, it's priceless! Please check out more Adam! Pretty much, every time he sings, he is otherworldly divine! His rendition of Led Zepplin's "Whole Lotta Love" on American idol (that also officially attracted the attention of Queen keyboardist Spike Edney), "love kills" (live at Iheart radio), and "Marry the night" during his guest his appearance on "Glee" among so many others are superb. In fact, while performing in Bologna in 2022, Adam even broke into a surprise rendition of "Nessun Dorma" and totally brought the house down! I saw him with Queen live, in person last November and it was easily one of the best nights of my life!
Finally Adam made the channel! He is one of the most versatile and talented singer out there.
I lnow you'll get plenty of Queen requests so I'll go
to his other career and recommend I Can't Stop the Rain, live on American Idol.
Adam is the best. Love him
Loved this. I saw queen in 1985 at Wembley stadium and am a huge fan.
I also saw the American idol series with Adam Lambert. His performances with Kiss and queen were outstanding.
He does not sound like Freddie, he does not copy Freddie. He just has a world class voice that fits Freddie's songs perfectly.
The new queen recordings from "Live Round the world" are fantastic. Recorded with modern technology they brings a crispness that was not possible in the 80's, and I think Adams annunciation is fantastic. There are phrases Adam sings that I could not make out from Freddie's performances. I cant tell if that is due to new Microphone technology or Adams style but it is great.
"Who wants to live forever" from Isle Of White next.
Adam was a contestant on American Idol many years ago and became a real standout in many ways… he particularly got to me when he covered Mad World on the show. While he’s not a regular on my playlist he can rule a power ballad, but also can rein in that power like he does through so much of this performance. Range, Power, Control, Presence… = Adam Lambert. And that annual event always packs a star-studded audience. Now I Believe I’ll go see if he’s revisited Mad World in the years since American Idol..🎶🌟 (yay! New Egg!)
That was my favorite song of his. He sang it twice on the show - this first one seemed great but the last note is off. I thought I was crazy that I could hear that or I was probably wrong. He finally made mention of it that he blew it and the second version is much better. I always loved him and he should have won but we know why he didn’t.
@@LaurieRein I’m just glad that these days the kids can be themselves in their own perfect awesomeness, unlike back in Adam’s day on the show. Maybe it’s been a good thing he didn’t win? He’s done very well
@@shelleyo Even Simon said “he was the only one he saw ever making it” and so glad he did. I love him with Queen although I was a total Freddie person but if you had to pick someone to be a replacement, Queen went the right way and they talk about him in just amazement of what he can sing and his glorious personality. Made me so happy!
@@LaurieRein
As for recs for future appreciation, Closer To You (Live Sessions) is Really Good …. And shows off some of his range, and tugs at the heart as it’s very personal to him (think he co-wrote).
Wow! What a reaction, and explanation for this beautiful rendition of this song. Adam is I would say my favorite singer and probably the best singer of this generation. I would love to hear some Queen and Adam songs and more of his solos. Thank you✌️👍
I’ve been a fan of Adam Lambert’s since he was on American Idol.
I saw Queen & Adam Lambert in concert a few years ago and it was spectacular! He’s no Freddie Mercury, but my God he can sing and does those iconic songs justice. Freddie would be proud
Another special voice I couldn´t picture anyone other singing with Queen than Freddy Mercury, but surprisingly Adam Lambert fits well. He is interpreting the songs, like he did with this one, as a tribute to the original performer with his own unique style.
SirH I’m a patreon member of yours, & I sincerely hope you check out Adam & Queen
“ Who wants to live forever” isle of wright festival (it’s a live performance)
I think this may put some hair on ya head 🤭 . So curious if you can analyze Adams voice here, cause it is out of this world.
✌️💕
Thank you! This one has been recommended to me a number of times in the comments so it's on my list for the future
I can't tell you how excited I am for you to begin reacting to Adam. You ain't heard nothing yet! This doesn't even scratch the surface of his unimaginable vocal power. When you hear him with Queen at the Isle of Wight festival singing Who Wants To Live Forever, I think you will be floored. Not only for the performance itself but for the tribute he gives at the beginning. It's extremely meaningful. ua-cam.com/video/J8Fc8AuSCb0/v-deo.htmlsi=4kadCcf_npspgS4Q I was sure you'd appreciate his voice. I loved this breakdown and reaction. I always learn something from you about each piece you react to. Thank you!
Thank you so much for the analysis . I so enjoy you! Yes, this was an amazing performance. I’m old enough to have heard Queen’s music at release and have always loved them. I saw Queen and Adam in concert a few years ago. It was AMAZING! 🎶💥❤️
I 'discovered" Adam during his run on American Idol years ago - his powerful voice and risky arrangements won me over! Plus, he has a very flamboyant style that is so fun to see. Anythinig you do with him will be outstanding and I'll be watching. Though your musical analysis sometimes goes over my head when you break down chords, etc., I find your explanations informative and fascinating none-the-less. I look forward to seeing new reactions from you pop up in my feed.
I see another commenter mentions a performance Adam did in response to the Pulse nightclub shooting. Another musical response to that disaster for you to check out is Superfruit and a couple friends (Superfruit is Scott & Mitch from PTX) singing Rise by Katy Perry. Brian Justin Crum performs with them and is another voice that you might enjoy analyzing - his performance on America's Got Talent (AGT) singing Creep is a frequent place to start.
The Pulse reference was from "Who wants to live forever" from Isle Of White
Wow! First time hearing Adam Lambert, thanks for the introduction. Also, amazing analysis. Thank you!
"Hits you like the beat does..." Or like a sob does. I never thought of it before, but sobs are percussive gasps.
Great reaction. "Arpeggiated" is a new word for me.
I love Adam Lambert ever since he competed in American idol and came second YEARS ago. TX. Greetings from South Africa
I can't believe that you've pulled me further than only watching Pentatonix. My gain for sure. Thank you so much!
Hopefully we'll discover many more new artists in the future
I've been following Adam's career since his audition on American Idol (Bohemian Rhapsody, btw). He's definitely a good choice for the channel! I look forward to any Queen + Adam Lambert content you add, especially if you include "Who Wants to Live Forever" from the Isle of Wight Festival in 2016.
Love Adam. Should definitely check out who wants to live forever as others suggested but my favorite is the show must go on. I liked this one but to me it definitely doesn’t show what he can do. He’s an amazing singer.
I understand why this was so requested. I saw it on tv and was entranced as well. I especially like the very different finale, more emotional. Great analysis again. I love the attention you pay to not only the singer but also the orchestration and arrangement. And, my goodness... I love your sense of humour... yodelling man crack me up every time. 😂🤗... The performances from the Kennedy Center special events are always spectacular. My favorite one, and you probably have seen it, is Heart singing Stairway to Heaven, when Led Zeppelin was honoured. It’s epic!
The final performance depends heavily on the arrangement and orchestration (I believe), so I make sure to talk about it! Haha the yodelling man makes me laugh too Putting him in definitely adds another 5 mins to the editing because I end up watching the whole video
Wow Adam Lambert - what a surprise! I've only ever heard him with Queen. What an incredible analysis Sir, so good, thank you! 🙏🙏🤩
this is another HUGE rabbit hole, Sir, buckle up! :D
I’m happy to see previous comments recommending Adam’s live performance with Queen of ‘Who wants to live forever’ (2016); it’s powerful and touching! Sir, I’m still processing in my mind the amount of admiration I feel for your amazing ability to understand (and explain with clarity) the nuances of musical arrangements that can elicit particular emotions when we are exposed to specific songs/performances... For me your brilliant musical knowledge tastes like a beautiful thesis full of exciting and novel findings!☺Also, you brought a big smile to my face when I saw the short clip you included of Dimash flying with those precious wings of Ikanaide; I can’t resist the beauty of that performance❣What about the short clip you showed us of the lovely version of ‘Believe’ by the Aussie DMA’s? Yes, I loved it too! :) Thank you for another delightful episode of 'Learning and enjoying music with Sir Hairless'!
Gosh! You've put it so well! I couldn't have said it better - I agree 100%! 👏 👌🫶🙏
@@venettaperry-sh7su You're very kind, thank you and a big hug!🤗
Thanks, Maria, as always And you know the DMAs?! I don't know why, but I didn't imagine them being known in South America
@@SirHairless Hey, Sir! To be honest I’m not sure how well-known DMA’s is here in South America… I got to know them during the time I was in UK - they seemed to be quite big over there at the time :) It’s been some time that I don’t listen to them and that clip you showed was a nice reminder that I should revisit this band more often, thanks!✌
I have loved Adam Lambert’s voice since he was on American Idol way back in 2009. I was one of the outraged people when he was runner up. He definitely deserved to win! But hey, he has had plenty of success anyway without it!
Oh, and I think Believe totally sounds like it’s from the 70s!
The original Believe sounds very 80's discovery to me😊
I love Adam. Thank you for your great reaction and analysis. 🙋🇦🇷
Thank you for a wonderful analysis. I first heard Adam on American Idol and was floored by his renditions of "Whole Lotta Love" and "Mad World". Queen keyboardist Spike Edney heard him and brought him to the attention of Brian and Roger. They never thought they would find anyone that could sing the full range of Queen's catalogue until they heard Adam. He can sing anything! Adam even sung Nessun Dorma when Queen were touring Italy. Check out the Live Around the World versions of Love Kills, Who Wants To Live Forever and The Show Must Go On.
Loved your analyses of how certain choices in chords, notes, arrangement affects the character and mood of what an audience hears. I've always enjoyed listening to Adam sing - his voice is spectacular; but hearing more about musical lines and chords enhances that enjoyment. Thank you!
Thank you for this analysis. I particularly appreciate the inserts of other artists to illustrate your explanation. Adam’s cover is deeply moving and powerfully delivered. Thank you (I’m grateful that my choice didn’t win your poll).
Glad you enjoyed! Which was your choice in the poll?
Adam Lambert is God sent as a musician.please sit back and listen to his beautiful soul sing ❤
Love his version of the song. Very moving. I have seen many reaction videos. But, you have the technical and musical knowledge to delve much deeper than others. Fascinating to listen to. thanks.
I remember Adam since "Whatdaya want from me" and liked him ever since. In 2016 I went to Queen+Adam Lambert twice and I was so stunned by how great he is as a live performer.
Please give us more of your analysis of him
Loved your reaction and analysis. Adam is a classically trained vocalist. He performed in musical theatre for close to 10 years before wanting to become a recording artist. The first note was shortened because the piano came in too early, so he had to get the mic up to his mouth immediately, but he was still on pitch. For me, he has such a clean and crisp voice with the most beautiful tone. Hope to hear more of Adam on your channel. Thank you.
I’ve been listening to Adam since his days on American Idol. Sometimes he’s more at the forefront of my playlist and sometimes not, but always great. He does a comedy version of this using the words to the Muffin Man nursery rhyme and it is more up tempo (it was for something on the Jimmy Kimmel show, I believe) but still sounds phenomenal. The Isle of Wight performance that others have mentioned is also a beautiful thing to hear.
It was for a game show by Jimmy Fallon
@@lauraled1davis565 Thank you! I don’t watch either so I was guessing at the name.
Could be fun to go way back to Adam's start on American Idol. He did some amazing stuff! Love this reaction!
I've never watched American Idol (I know, what kind of American am I?), but since the first time I heard Adam sing, for me he can do no wrong. Your Grace, I have to ask: are these your observations on ONE listening? All the little things you notice like chest voice going up and head voice going down? If so, I'm not worthy. I'm starting to think you got your knighthood when you became Sir Hairless, Royal Music Analyzer. Cheers!
Haha yes, this is my first time listening. Then when I pause I obviously can go back to listen to parts to make sure the information I'm saying is correct...so it's like: listen > pause & go back and check & speak > continue listening to next section > repeat process for next section
Certain things - such as chest voice going up / head voice down etc - are much easier (for me, anyway) to notice than the more technical things regarding harmonic progressions. I imagine it's why there are few channels out there who talk about the harmony underneath, and there are many who focus on just the voice
I like the title of Sir Hairless, Royal Music Analyzer Thanks
That was a great analysis of Adams singing, he's definitely one of a kind.
You explain everything so perfectly
I adore Adam Lambert. He came in in second place on American Idol. You should check out some of his performances. Great analysis! Thanks
I also saw him in concert with Queen and he was awesome.
Adam truly is a performer! He is so emotive when he needs but also so fun and energetic ❤
🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 .. this is so , so , so good !! Adam sings every note with conviction and feeling. Love it 💚🌿💚 ..
In terms of Queen , Adam is an excellent choice, for sure. What I would really like for Sir Hairless to react to is
... the Freddy Mercury tribute concert after his unfortunate passing. My first choice would be George Michael joining Queen for"Somebody To Love" ..
and next is Annie Lennox & David Bowie singing "Under Pressure" 🎼♦️🎼
24 hours prior to this he was in the UK singing on the finale for Strictly Come Dancing
Stumbled on to this channel and subscribed immediately! This analysis is golden! Listened 3 times as I love hearing the intracies of this talented human being. He is a unicorn and Queen saw his brilliance while he was performing on Idol. They do indeed love him.as their frontman. Have seen him on his own tour and with Queen. Both are incredible.. Going back for the 4th time to this in depth analysis as it helps me understand my excitement for his performances! Thank you for enhancing my learning curve and you going down Adam's rabbit hole. He does not disappoint!❤❤❤QAL at the Isle of Wight 2016 and Adam's dedication before singing Who Wants To Live Forever is iconic!
Thank you so much for your review videos. I really learn a lot from your video. You are wonderful Sir Hairless. Keep up the great work.
Oh wow loved the detail in your analysis! Please react to more Adam. 😊
Very informative analysis.❤
Love Adam ❤ incredibly talented man
Brilliant analysis! Adam sings my favorite cover of this song and I'm grateful you have heard him sing. Definitely listen to him sing with Queen, please, his own music, and anything else you can get your hands on as he is a great of our time, imho.💜
I have heard Adam Lambert a lot and I do really like his voice. He is good at evoking emotion in a similar way to how Mitch from PTX does. This is such a powerful version of Believe. Your analysis, as always, is very informative and helps me appreciate the music more.
Adam is really underrated in my opinion. I love his voice.
Love Adam great reaction
Adam has such a power house voice but yet tender and breathy. I luv to hear him sing no matter what it is! Truely enjoyed this reaction! 🤙🎶
I enjoyed this reaction/analysis so much. I really appreciate your commentary.
I love it when you're surprised...
Subscribed and waiting for the next Adam’s voice analysis. This one is spot on!
Adam's voice always gives me chills. I love him stepping in with Queen, he never tries to be Freddie, but he has a bit of that Freddie strut that just makes him such a perfect fit for Queen.
Regarding faces in the crowd: Several of the original broadway cast of Hamilton are shown, not just LMM. Chris Jackson(George Washington) is one of the first shown, and another shot is Jasmine Jones (Peggy/Mariah) and Anthony Ramos (Lawrence/Phillip) together, and Phillipa Sou (Eliza) is sitting in front of LMM.
If you want a cover, I highly recommend Holding out for a Hero from Adam's latest album.
This was such a great reaction. I am enthralled with your analyses of songs & performers.
I realized while listening to this that I've never actually heard this whole song, only the excerpt from PTX's "90's Dance Medley," which is fabulous, by the way. All I really know about it otherwise is that PTX broke their no-Autotune rules in honor of Cher's use of it as a special effect in her original, the first hit song to ever do so. Thanks for another insightful reaction!
Miss Kalahari of TheSoundbath calls the quick breath intake "pain withheld".
Adam did a similar version of this song when he competed on American Idol in 2009.
Hey Sir! That kid can sing!! Very satisfying vocal treatment tremendous reaction from you.
Could you possibly react to David Phelps and Sheila Warner's duet on 'The Prayer'? Think it may leave you breathless...
His Americas got talent journey is a great show of his voice and through growth, he appeared on glee, of course is incredible with Queen. The new years big ben show was great!
He was on American Idol.
Обожаю эту песню! Адам Ламберт - Браво! 👏👏 Очень душевное исполнение!
Обожаю Вашу реакцию и анализ, Ваше чувство юмора! В жизни бы не расслышала ни колокольчик ни гитару, без Вас! 😊
Большое спасибо! ❤
🙏🙏🙏 Queen + Adam Lambert - Who Wants To Live Forever (Live At The Isle Of Wight Festival 2016) . He released 5 albums, VELVET is magical!
You might be interested in Adam’s American Idol journey, which boosted his career in a big way, and showed off his wide range of vocal skills pretty nicely. He got to perform with Queen and Kiss in the course of the competition. He finished second, but I can’t remember who won unless I think about it. Lol.
He got to perform with them in the course of the competition?! 🤯
@@SirHairless yes! I believe that both groups expressed interest behind the scenes in having him become a member of their groups.
@@SirHairless the performances with Kiss and Queen were during the Idol finale for the season Adam competed in, 2009.
He was runner -up to Kris xxxxx
@@Rkbmomma yeah, I remember, I was so disappointed.
I've watched a few reactions to this performance and this is right up there with the best. I love the explanation of the role of the instrumentation.One of my favourite performances of his is "Pick U Up" but sadly I dont think there's a live version of it. If you want to hear his pure vocals check out his performance of "Come to Me" from when he was just 22. It's a show tune but absolutely fantastic. The sustained notes he sings is why people are convinced he has a 3rd lung. ua-cam.com/video/DJYyqzUr6jU/v-deo.html
Yo, Sir Hairless! This suggestion. ☝️☝️☝️
(The link ; Come To Me, Bend To Me from Brigadoon)
I'd love to see your take on his Ring of Fire from American Idol. Its quite different.
This was my absolute favorite performance of his on AI. It still gives me chills!
Sounds interesting! I've added it to my list 🎵
I second this. One of my favorites ❤
I really enjoy spending time with you and a singer. When you clench your teeth and grimace a bit I'm not sure exactly what you're experiencing in the moment. Regardless of the answer it's all part of my listening lesson. Truth be told, Adam Lambert had to grow on me. I was having a hard time with him trying to wear Freddie's shoesl Thanks as always!
Haha me neither, sometimes! Unfortunately I think I pull the same face for any of the following: pleasure, displeasure, disbelief
@@SirHairless ok! Now I don't have to worry that you might be in pain!🙂
finally Dimash become a reference Clip
The Performance fit perfect again for the end of the week and an other great Analysis
I first saw Adam, in the 2008 American Idol show. Even though he did not win, I knew that he would be fine. I know some of your members have asked for some songs that Adam sings with Queen. I was wondering if you would consider analyzing a song Adam sang in 2008. It is “Mad World?” If you can, I think you would enjoy it.
Adam, of course delivered a very emotional and respectful rendition of this iconic song.
Thanks for the recommendation, Debbie 👍🏽 That one is on my list for some time in the future!
@@SirHairless Thank you SO MUCH for considering the song! It is ALWAYS an HONOR to be a part of your channel! 💗🇺🇸
This reaction makes me so happy ❤ I've been a fan of Adam Lambert even longer than PTX and it's great to see him on your channel. He is absolutely worth checking out with Queen but his solo stuff is fantastic too. So while I second everyone recommending the Isle of Wight performance of Who wants to live forever, my suggestion for some more exploration is his own song "Closer to you" (live session). Hope to see that on here one day.
Find it here 😊 ua-cam.com/video/lnaEWxv_fhA/v-deo.htmlsi=McmFYYFhE9Ccf0FE
A couple of his songs over the years..
For your entertainment
Ghost town
The Original high
Adam
Would be nice if you could check out GABRIEL HENRIQUE'S VERSION of BELIEVE. Also stunning.🤩
Adam never actually joined Queen officially as frontman because he is a stand alone artist. He has contracts and albums on his own and only perform with the band upon request. He still continue his solo career nowadays and with Queen as part of his portfolio as well now. Talking about having 2 jobs at the same time ❤❤😂😂
To be precise, the band's name is technically "Queen + Adam Lambert" and Adam is the permanent lead vocalist. In this format since 2012 they have played over 300 huge gigs in arenas, stadiums and festivals within 3 world tours.
I would love to get your take on Journey - Mother Father live in Houston ❤❤❤❤
Would really love to see you react to some Ren.
Gabriel Enrique recorded this song in the same style that Adam Lambert did it. That was going to be the song he sang in AGT if he'd made it to the finals.
Adam sang this version as a contestant on American Idol in 2009.
Прекрасный кавер на хит!👍 Но, … только Шер и Фредди будут помнить и слушать через 50, 100, 200 лет!😜❤️❤️❤️
Great reaction. Please check out Gabriel Henrique's cover of Adam's version.
I am assuming from your accent that you are not American and therefore may not know about the Kennedy Center Honours. They are given out annually to performance artists for lifetime achievement. There are typically 5 or 6 honourees a year taken from music, stage and screen, so it is a very highly respected award. The honourees current and past are the ones you see wearing the fun rainbow collars during the awards. Lin Manuel Miranda was notable for being exceptionally young at the time the honour was given.
⚡⚡❣❣❣❣❣❣⚡⚡
Thank you so much for this reaction and analysis! My appreciation of this beautiful cover has deepened with everything you discussed.
My recommendation outside of any of his Queen performances would be this cover of a Bonnie Tyler song ua-cam.com/video/dB7NsWHCQv4/v-deo.html
Gabriel Henrique sung this song too. Please react to his version. Thank you.
I’ve loved Adam since American idol. Went to see him with Queen in London, but Dimash has my heart and soul. I’m going to see both May concerts with Dimash, But I was more than happy to watch your reaction to Adam today,
Amazing - enjoy! 🇭🇺🇹🇷

Hi Mister. I don't want to play the annoying, inconvenient role. But Gabriel Henrique sang this song, I believe based on this version. I think you would like to know. It's very exciting. It was right after he lost AGT. A hug
Check out GABRIEL HENRIQUE singing that same song... he does a whistle note at the end.... amazing, extraordinary.
Thank you. I love Adam Lambert's voice. I love everything that he did when he was on American Idol. I haven't always been happy with his song choices, but when he is on point, he is on point! This was such a lovely performance by Adam and just beautiful in all ways. You have such a good ear! I can't wait to hear what you have to say about what you hear. :) Adam with Queen 'Who Wants to Live Forever': ua-cam.com/video/9C6DPHosZZg/v-deo.html
No he doesn’t sound like Freddie, he just sings their songs well, not as a copycat..and that’s definitely what Roger and Brian wanted, just someone to sing their songs really well.. not a Freddie replacement.
I have watched Adam since American Idol and he is the nicest guy - should have won that show but for other absurd reasons he didn’t. I have followed him through Queen and as much as I like him - he is not Freddie. Fun to watch your viewpoint on this since you have never heard him. 👏🏼 This was in 2019 to honor Cher at the Kennedy Center Honors. She sang it 1998 - you were right.
Cher is a very good actress!!!😄
