Queen + Adam Lambert - Somebody To Love (Live on X-Factor 2014)
/ queenofficial - Hudba
I swear Brian will be like 100 years old and STILL be playing the guitar with such charisma. He is immortal
Carcharodontosaurus 831 i truly hope so
In 2016 I read about some thing that would make you immortal or live for like 200 years.. can you imagine that though..
Jake Deceased Toe .....Brian is the BEST ever. He is amazing, as is Roger! I’m not crazy about Adam Lambert. Something is missing that was there with Freddie. He’s not a “showman”.
we cant lose brian he's earth's best defender
Wayne Clark whhhoooooosshhhh
3:57 when he hit that note....WOW....Freddie would have been proud of Adam, I really have no doubt.
Except he was flat on that note.
That's actually a really easy note to hit. It sounds really impressive, but it's not hard at all.
ok debbie downer
I would like to see you try it dear!:). I can't wait for your video!!!:)
Brain May said that if Freddie heard Adam singing he would have said something like "Oh, that fuc_er!!! singing so high!!!"
Nobody will ever replace Freddie but Adam did a great job keeping Queens legacy alive with these shows. Freddie would be so proud.
U R RIGHT,NO ONE WILL REPLACE OUR FREDDIE.I CAN'T LISTEN TO THIS
@@marlenesullivan3113 You realize this was 8 years ago? Right? This was their first tour, they are now in their 6 th tour, not bad in 8 years.
@@marlenesullivan3113 🤣 you did listen though and decided to leave a comment. Ha! Hahaha!! You listened. Thanks for adding to the views & comments count.😹
I totally agree!! Our Freddie would be proud ❤️
Nah this shit is trash. A million levels under Freddie. They should’ve just called it quits all together without Freddie anymore.
He brought his own wonderful sound, he's not trying to replace just honor, he's doing a tremendous job 👏
No he is not... he just does not have the charisma
@@theresanolan1157 He has his Very Own charisma. He’s incredible.
@@theresanolan1157 Have you seen him live on stage with Queen? I have. And I disagree with you absolutely. He states absolutely that he is not there to replace Mercury but to honor him. And he does it spectacularly.
#bloody terrable
@@sampocock2765 MM troll.
It's amazing the dream Adam is living right now. So happy for him.
Yes he's living off the songs Freddie wrote and sang like no other.
Lulu Cidette what do you mean by "living off"
He has his own stuff out as well and it is doing well. However, to stand in the shoes of Freddie in honor of his work, that is a dream.
28andee don't let the sun go down Estefan
He's good but no Freddie.
roger’s smile at adam’s high notes was so damn cute it must take him back
Roger and Bryan both knew who the champion was!
@@hannaj4032 *brian
It's just mind-blowing how Adam sings that song so effortlessly
I think Freddie is smiling down on Adam proud that they found someone worthy to carry on his legacy. Its almost as if there is a piece of Freddie in Adam.
there's no piece in him
Adam Lambert is amazing...
Never,He would be bored and angry . Neatly 30 years after he passed away and still the same songs.
Absolutely
Mike Mortell. Not adam
Honestly- I love this pairing. Adam Lambert is not Freddie Mercury. And he's not trying to be him. He's paying tribute to a legend and doing an amazing job. He's got an insane vocal range and strength just like Freddie. And I'm sure he would be proud of him.
adele
Alan Murray what?
I definitely agree Amanda. Adam has the charisma, stage performance, vocals, high energy and he's down right sexy...JUST like Freddie! Even though FM was gay, (just like Adam), he charmed every women of every age, right along with the boyz... (just like Adam)!!! No-one can replace the shoes of the late, great, Freddie Mercury, but Adam is right on the money! Kudos to him...Fan 4 Life, Queen + Adam Lambert ;-P
Amanda Rain Freddie will always be the best but both are flamboyant
lambert
is the real deal. he doesn't need to fill anyone's shoes. he has his own shoes. Queen approached him and they love him
Brian May is 71. Roger Taylor is 69. They don't have to work anymore if they don't want to. Isn't it great that they want to? About to do a tour this summer '19 as well.
I think it's amazing, Just show how much they love what they do. (They sure don't need the money.)
they dont need to work since 1985 or something like that xd
@@tomiton6661 It's not up to you to tell anyone other than yourself when to and when not to work. They love what they do and will continue as long as they like.
Mike Brown Deacy doesn’t work anymore. Did he not want to?
Stephen Murphy His health is fragile.
To fill Freddie’s shoes is a phenomenal task great job Adam hats off to you
Was at Queen and Adam Lambert's Rhapsody tour last night in Glasgow. This boy has a set of pipes - it's unworldly! Brian and Roger do not age. It's a match made in heaven (probably by Freddie himself)
So jealous. Never even knew that gig was on til after the fact. Hoping they’ll tour one more time and play the hydro!
I could not agree more!!
Holy Cow .. I had heard that Lambert toured with Queen but I had no idea he sounded THAT GOOD . I think Freddie is smiling and more than giving his OK !
And it is even better if you hear i live. The guy is unbeleivable!
Mark Boston he sings in a very different fashion than from the original. I can't decide if this is good
You should hear them live ... it is IN CRED IBLE!!! Adam brings so much intense emotion to Freddie's lyrics, at the same time he is so humbled and keeps pointing up to heaven and thanking Freddie 😍 The band really love him, Brian May calls Adam their gift from God
care tø give death a try? Aww that is sweet! So glad they can still continue on as a band 💜
Have you heard Queen with FUN?
Wow!!!!! Adam Lambert is a phenomenal talent .. the drive in his voice is just incredible. I saw Queen & Adam Lambert perform in Melbourne, Australia and AL's voice is stunningly good live .. such vocal command .. such charisma, he brings such joy, such humour and in "Who wants to live forever" such pathos to the performance. He is over the top .. but if you run with it .. you get so caught up in the powerhouse rock voice and strutting around you just find yourself enthralled .. under a spell. Brian was so mesmerizing singing, his performance, his presence is very moving .. what a wonderful, caring, generous, inspirational man he is .. and the inclusion of Freddie on screen was so poignant. So very sad he is not here, but it is a tribute to the music they created how successful this touring has been and a credit that they can deliver such world class entertainment. I love, love, love Queen and am so happy they came to Australia and so thrilled they have such a brilliant singer to tour with. If you get a chance go see them . they are legends!
Oh, I can't wait to see them live in February! Yes Adam is phenomenal, a gift from god indeed, Brian was right!
He's the only singer who is able to give me a RUSH when I hear him sing... I'm talking ADRENALINE!
It happened the first time 6 years ago when I was channel surfing and I stumbled on to Idol and saw this boy perform 'Satisfaction'. I didn't know what hit me then... His performance was playing in the back of my mind everyday after that n I just had this nagging urge to look him up n watch it again. He did something vocally crazy... something I've never experienced before. I didn't become an instant fan but I think it was at the point of 'Born To Be Wild' that I realized he's crazy good and then I found myself rooting for him to win. Then he did that epic performance with KISS n Queen and when he didn't win, I started to support him n his music n unknowingly became a Glambert, till this day!
All of us who have seen him with Queen on that Idol finale felt and knew there was an undeniable chemistry between them. They are soooo exciting together! Some think that it's serendipitous that they met but now, it's obvious - it's DESTINY!!! Adam was BORN for this!
chezzasan you got me there.. i fell for Adam on his performance of Satisfaction too.. and for me it was love at the first sight.. lol..
No voice can replace Freddie's... but Adam is about as close as you can get. Phenomenal.
Close, but without imitating.
He’s just an outstanding vocalist, I love him with Queen! Freddie would be proud!
He’s not as good as Freddie
@@jasoncammarata8476 In Live singing ability, he far surpasses what Freddie was capable of.
@@carolhagerty4288are you mentally challenged?

Why Adam is the PERFECT heir to Freddie's Majesty.
1. Brian and Roger both agreed Adam should continue Freddie's legacy. He made them feel young and lively while performing again.
2. Adam shows great respect and maturity alongside these legendary musicians.
3. Apart from giving his all in his singing, he repeatedly said he's not there to replace Freddie. He's merely there to continue his (and Queen's) legacy.
4. His vocal quality, range and stage presence. I actually hear and see a bit of Freddie in him.
Glad you figure it out, also, to add his solo career and what he did, already- is VERY POETIC. :P one day, I think you will understand, but I'm not sure it will be when he is around. But to add- it's great they won band of the year.
te amo
Mike Martel is way better than this clown.
@@ramielwarda8164 Says who?
@@ramielwarda8164 Apart from the fact that Martel tries to sound like Freddie, no person of any musical integrity has ever denied the fact that Queen and Adam together is a fantastic combo.
Adam is never going to replace Freddie he is simply honoring his awesomeness by singing his song.
Imagine starting off on a TV singing show, and becoming the missing void from a band who arguably had the greatest frontman in rock and roll history.
Imagine auditioning for that show with a song from that band and then becoming their frontman
You can’t tell he sounds like a hack until he sadly attempts Freddie’s work with his sellout band.
@ Rino Zisa - It was great and Adam is so deserving of it.
@@bartilliak If you hate Adam then you ain't a real Queen fan. Freddie said himself that "the show must go on." He would not want the spirit and music of Queen to die with him.
@@bartilliak But hes not AtTeMpTiNg FrEdDiEs WoRk!
Just remember when Simon said Adam was too theatrical. Who's laughing now?
Simon was right, there is no spontaneity in Adam. He is not a rock singer.
I am! 😂😂😂😂
@"Zenobia" - and you have zero taste and Adam is so SPONTANEOUS, and has the voice and charisma to beat them all.
@@ZENOBlAmusic That's why he was doing mostly rock songs in the competition and killing it.
@ lady T ehhh u sure about that
"Roger and I have seen literally thousands of singers in our lifetimes including some great ones auditioning for our We Will Rock You show, but we’ve never seen or heard anything like Adam. I always think that Freddie, with a wicked smile, would say something like “I hate you, Madam Lambert,” because even Freddie would have been gobsmacked at his range and his ability to reinterpret these songs which the four of us originally created together."
(Classic Rock)
Brian i think you made the right choice with adam.. there should be no debate.. it was your and Rogers choice.
right
Exactly.
He is good but no where near freddie
Billy Boy I’ve seen them both live. They are different, but both are amazing vocalists and performers.
It’s so poetic that he did bohemian rhapsody for his American idol audition, Simon was saying you’re too theatrical idk if you’re right for this… then he ends up touring with Queen long term as a collaborative frontman. 😂
Adam’s voice is so outrageously good. What a great frontman for Queen 👌
I believe there is no one with a better voice on this planet. He's absolutely amazing!
What you are in this planet adam is not i only like freddie in this planet
I NEED TO HEAR THIS LIVE THIS IS A BLESSING IM SO THANKFUL THAT QUEEN IS BACK AND ADAM ROCKED IT
ĺ
I saw Adam live during his solo tour in Stockholm and in Brussels for his tour with Queen and both were exceptional. Video's really don't do his voice justice. At the Queen concert there were quite a few skeptics but after the 1st song they were in tears screaming for more :P
Mike Slegers you're so lucky!!!
they just announced another tour in the US!
I came here after saw how Adam Lambert absolutely nailed and killed this song in Argentina!
WOW a true powerhouse :O
NO ONE can do those high notes back to back like Adam...and place a vibrato while belting a few octaves..DAMN
Listen to the high notes sung by Freddie in { mother love} and he was dying. Adam was good, but don't Disrespect Freddie. Roger even commented on how well he hit the high notes
@@margarethirsche126 where did I disrespect anyone?
No one? You're dumb
@@Dr.Freeze was that reply necessary? You are always entitled to an opinion as am I. Do you have to be "dumb" in the reply? Just asking. Not saying u are dumb.
Freddie could, and he makes Adam look like a dime a dozen singer. Never thought the mates would sell out :(
Adam has a face to match his voice absolutely beautiful
@ Phyllis Astor - Absolutely GORGEOUS.
This is ARTISTRY!!! WHAT A VOICE! Nobody today can sing like him today! Queen music is timeless!
queens music is timeless with freddie not adam
toxboxic It's timeless - period - many artists have sung this iconic music - you may prefer FM and that's your privilege - but this music belongs to Queen - not one performer
The label on the song says written by freddie mercury, so it is his song. Ic it were the bands, it would have said "queen composition"
toxboxic You posted music (plural) - not STL (song) -
toxboxic You are wrong. I love Freddie's voice. But he is dead and life is going on. Brian and Roger genius musicians, thanks to them we are still able to enjoy their music live! Adam is their choice and absolutely rightful one!.
I think it’s better that he doesn’t sound like Freddie. No one could ever replace Freddie Mercury. He has some of the stage presence and the charisma, that’s enough.
Google Marc Martel!
@@rachelaubie4818 I would legit, pay $800 to watch marc martel live. It's the closest we'd ever get to Freddie because he's an impersonator, he doesn't have a 10th of the talent or showmanship but I'm happy to just see that. He knows it too, he just loves queen so much and as Freddie said "I don't care what you do with my music, just have fun with it"
@@imnotataco the good news is you can see him for 50 $.
Stephanie Mac exactly
Rachel Aubie I like Marc Martell too. I would pay to see him perform.
I’ll bet Freddie is looking down saying YOU GO DARLING!
Even though Adam isn’t trying to be like Freddie... he’s on freakin point.. He brings the nostalgia back like no other.. 🤟
As Brian May said several times Adam is a gift from God for Queen. I agree
no, adam is just a random guy they pciked for god knows what reason.
toxboxic They picked him because he has the finest male voice in the biz today - and can sing Q's songs easily and in the original key - one in a billion as Taylor said. As a rabid FM fan, you're just annoyed because AL is so good - afraid FM's reputation might be diminished in contrast - crazy -
Though he is not Freddie (no one will EVER be Freddie!!!!!), Adam is 100% the best choice they could have made to perform with them. He can actually sing, he has great range, he is theatrical and he doesn't try to mimic Freddie; he sings the songs well enough, but in his own way which is still suited to Queen.
+Lemon Drops late reply, but idk, george michael's tribute was top notch.
+giggleweed From the Tribute concert? I have that on DVD; all the performances are top notch and the artists chosen are well suited to their songs! Only thing wrong with that concert is that no one sang "Friends Will Be Friends" - which, considering the tribute material, would have been most fitting and very touching.
+Lemon Drops No one else will ever be Adam Lambert either...he is simply magnificent !!!!!
+Bdtty Bowles no adam is good but he sucks compared to greddy adam lambert
+Lemon Drops nobody could replace freddie. adam is good but they way he changes the songs he should just make a cover band.
No fancy words needed, Adam Lambert is outstanding, singing and stage presence, Freddie Mercury would be a fan, I certainly am from the first time I saw him and I’m a straight white 68 year old lady, he quite simply spreads magic on stage.
Applause. Not Freddie, but Lambert is good in his own right. I love how engaged the audience is with Queen.
@ElectricalFusionRoblox I suggest a lot more research on your part.
Adam Lambert is truly one of the most naturally gifted singers EVER & still hasn't gotten the credit he deserves. He is amazing!
It's an unfortunate case of being overshadowed by awesome. He's definitely talented, he deserves that much at the very least, but he's trying to fill one of the biggest pairs of musical shoes out there.
Give dues where they're given though, he smashes this brilliantly.
@@daptekar he is a nice rock singer, you cannot even put him on the same level of rap-trap guys on this topic.
Dude has some pipes. Great range, and he brings his own style to the songs. For the people bent on him not being Freddie. He's not supposed to be. If I could sing even half as well as either of them, and Queen asked me to sing with them, you bet I'd be there. Well, after I recovered from my heart attack from when they asked.
I'm so proud of Adam Lambert he deserves this
Brian May´s face of approval in 2:18 is enougth to convince me this guy is doing all right.
I'm so glad Queen found Adam Lambert (or vice versa). No one could ever replace Freddie, but this kind of music and quality of music should never die!
Who's saying this music should be stopped ? B&R may as well go on stage with their own name ...
I hate you
Mark Martel is way better
Nope. Marc Martel is waayy better
@@deanaxlrose being a second rate imitator who can't sing rock is nothing to brag about. Adam Lambert is the best singer alive and Queen wanted only him.
Freddie filled the stage with his presence. Adam Doesnt fill that spot, but fills his own unique spot, and its phenomenal. He doesnt try taking the glory of Freddie, but makes his own mark on the music.
"There's never going to be another, and I'm not replacing him. That's not what I'm doing. I'm trying to keep the memory alive, and remind people how amazing he was, without imitating him. I'm trying to share with the audience how much he inspired me." "To me @QueenWillRock is Freddie and I am a guest,”
---Adam Lambert
Those high notes are so effortless for Adam, if you look at his neck and throat when he hits them, you see next to no movement or veins popping out.
I saw Adam Lambert back in American Idol. I was surprised he didn't win. I had followed him since then. He is so talented his voice arrangement is huge. Out ot this 🌎. Fred Mercury will never be forgotten, but this young man can do his own too! I'm a big fan of him, I do appreciate his talent without comparatively. Of course is never be another Fred, but is an Adam.
You know what, I'm gonna say it: he lost because of America's closet homophobia at the time.
Freddy died the year I was born :( I love Queen songs....Sadly I will never have the chance to see Freddy live...but I would love to see Queen with Adam live...
I hope you have an opportunity one day...they are amazing.
slynnc kitty I hope so too :)
i can imagine that...they seem more than amazing just in videos
@ Nikolina
my name is Freddie
I miss you Freddie ;~;
I'm going to see them in Bangkok on Friday.... yay!!!!
Been a Queen fan since 1973, saw Queen with Freddie 7 times through the years. Adam gets my blessing, awesome singer and band sounds great.
I envy you so much :)
Adam lambert is the right front man, for the type of audience that Queen would like to appreciate the catalogue of their songs.
Adam is the man. Nobody is Freddie of course, but boy oh boy can that kid sing and hit those notes and then take them into the stratosphere. Phenomenal.
First time of heard this guy sing. He'll never replace Freddy and he's not trying to but he seems to fit right in as if he's been there all the time. The guy can sing.
Daryl W no body will replace Freddie but Adam is good in his own way
He has such an amazing voice. He is keeping Queen going!
My favorite current singer (male). He was so robbed on American Idol. CZcams his songs as well. He is amazing!
Great performance - Lambert's voice superb - as May said - Freddie would be jealous of Lambert's range and would love him, too - can't get all the angst here - Freddie's dead - long live Lambert - bringing this great music back to life again - lovin' it -
May presumes, but we don't know what freddie would have thought.
toxboxic Knows better than you would, tox
toxboxic When you play all the years with Freddie I think they know's him more than you my dear, they knows Freddie like a brothers so they know Freddie will like Adam jeez do you think we need to verify that with Freddie...its to late so please wake up and lets the Best Group play there succes they have to make the Homage to Freddie...I love Adam Lambert he his amazing performer and singer...so its time to accept Freddie's dead but we always love him for ever...thats it.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE seeing the older Queen guys with Adam. What a great idea.
If Freddie would listen to Adam he would have goosebumps for sure would be proud of him!
If you listen to Adam sing on this song. and you still can't see he's the most amazing singer in the world... Something's def wrong with you :)
+DaisyJane15 Something must be def wrong with me. Good voice, but ridiculously overacting... too plastic. Doesn't move a single muscle of his body without thinking it: unnatural.
+Darío Martínez talking about queen and not being over the top is ridiculous. don´t know anyone o over the top as freddy. but that´s why i like him and adam. both amazing
+Darío Martínez This is TV, his movements have already been staged so that the cameras know where to go. If you want natural movements, you can go watch any of the live Q+AL concerts - NA, Asia, Oz, NZ, Europe... most recent is South America (Porto Alegre, Rio etc).
Adam's vocals are so outrageous lol. Hes super talented.
j dragoon crap
The true lovers of Queen, know that this is an awesome collaboration . congrats to Adam for his decency
Adam is Amazing and can sing with anyone. He has the voice to do so. He doesn't get enough credit for his preference.
Freddie would be real damn proud of Adam. I think Adam is brilliant, bought his flair to Queen and instead of being bombast with hate, people should commend Adam for stepping into Freddie's massive shoes and pull it off!
I agree with you 100% there are unfortunately haters that follow Adam everywhere on social media b/c they are so jealous of his talent and are critical of Adam thinking it's going to change Brian and Roger's mind. Ha!
Freddie was very very special, and so is Adam. Nobody is like them. Really thankful that I live to witness these two great artists.
Brian and Roger always look like they’re having a blast performing with Adam. The three of them have stage chemistry plus a palpable camaraderie.
Never believed this, but Adam is a great contribution to Queen. I am sure Freddy would have had love and respect for him. He is such a great musician.
And Simon's like, we've come a long way from ring of fire, and thank god for it, lol
Matilda Wilson I thought ring of fire was fabulous! what a brilliant arragement! Simons Mental! Lol.
Matilda Wilson Ring of fire is the amazing!
Adam Lambert will always be one of the finest entertainers in show business!!
+Nicole Long And vocalists!
I would put him alongside Freddie for sure.
+jinga roblox Lambert alongside Freddie? No chance.
+Lee Anastassi some members of Queen have already stated that Lambert is better than Freddie was.
😂😂😂😂
It is great to see that Adam Lambert takes a back seat when the contestants are coming out to sing. I think he remembers his own experiences on American Idol and wants to give those younger talented singers a chance of their own to shine.
that's how you command a stage, Adam is a master performer
4.09 to 4.17 - Adam Lambert in a league of his own. The best vocalist alive today imo.
Brian and Roger knew what they were doing when they chose Adam. They would never tarnish Freddie's legacy with an imitator. Instead, they picked someone who honors Freddie's' vision for the band.
"When the whole point of Queen was to be original."
Freddie Mercury
"A concert is not a live rendition of our album. It's a theatrical event."
Freddie Mercury
"I have fun with my clothes onstage; it's not a concert you're seeing, it's a fashion show."

slynnc kitty Well said 👊🏻
👏👏👏 Adam is the Right choise.
Beautifully said
I love that Adam pays his respects to Queen and Freddie and to their music! I don't want a imitator of Freddie Mercury, if I want to hear Freddie I listen to Freddie! Adam does Adam and pays respect with his voice perfectly!
Lambert's singing is like a slap into Mercury's face. He has changed everything into a pop shitty song. Lambert is a disgrace to Mercury.
@Kieran Tickle You must be joking. Lambert is a total imitator who can't read notes, who can't play any instrument, and who can't perform on a stage without hundreds of people ( hairdressers, lighting specialists and others). He is a product - a mediocre one without real musical skills.
@@nikimati3695 Ehhh, hate to tell you but Queen used hair dressers and lighting specialists too. They weren't some unplugged acoustic band, lol.
@KCT Gaming & Reacts If you have nothing intelligent to write perhaps you shouldn't write at all.
How can you not like this hes bloody good ok hes not Freddie but not trying to be ,,, keeping Queen alive , ,, love him 🥰🥳🥳🥳
Mary Horton was at Queen + Adam Lambert concert two years ago. Even as die hard Queen/Freddie fan this guy brought tears to a grown up mans eyes.
@@anwollan he's one in a million and until you see him live, you have no idea how good he is
@@veronicamatchett8227 - Adam is perfect and amazing!
What a thrill that must have been for Adam in that moment! If someone told him , in a year or so you’ll be singing w/Queen, I wonder what he would’ve thought! Great performance!
he's been Queen's frontman for a 9 years now
WOW! Adam Lambert is fantastic. He certainly is the total package- charisma, looks, talent.. He has it all. So glad he doesn't try to imitate Freddie. He certainly doesn't need to as his vocals are much better!!!
you're joking. freddie mercury is on the lists as one of the greatest and legendary voices of all time. adam is a like a cat being strangled.
toxboxic Comments as ridiculous as that just show how silly your opinions are. You don't even believe that - just trying to be nasty.

Yes Freddie is on the list. Just like Adam Lambert.

I think Adam sounds great--just don't care for the STL song much, whether he's singing or Freddie's singing. Nobody can compare to Freddie singing his/Queen songs--he's one-of-a-kind and that's great. I just prefer Adam's voice. I became a Queen fan when Adam became the front man for them. Had not been that impressed with Freddie or Queen till then--not my favorite genre of music. One of my favorite Queen songs is WWTLF. When Adam sings it, it's quite moving and beautiful. And I've heard him sing many non-Queen songs (including some he wrote) - has an exceptional voice. I try not to compare Adam (or Freddie) to anyone else when I listen to the music. They are each unique--have learned a lot about each by watching videos of their performances and reading bios (per the web) on each. Freddie was very gifted and so is Adam. I have much respect for the struggles and journey Freddie experienced in his life as an artist and individual. And I have as much respect for Adam as an artist and individual, for his own struggles and the journey he is experiencing now in the music world and in his personal life. As I would have wished for Freddie, I wish only good things for Adam.
so you're one of those who hates freddie mercury now because adam is singing
f k this is awesome....I thought Adam lambert was a bad idea but sht he's good with Queen.he captures the same emotions and operatic vocal style of Freddie.....awesssooome
i am now a fan
+Sparq Meister *Not true for me - he's much worst. Freddie was (is) a real legend. There's no one better than him*
+Anti-Hater If he's so horrible, then I'm wondering how he sold out all those arenas, got RAVE reviews world-wide, kept extending the show due to high demand, and won two awards from Classic Rock. I guess those hundreds of thousands who actually paid to see him were not disappointed.
+Jess Dela Fuente Yes. Adam sounded quite good on this song...his own version, but it worked. Have heard some other songs he did with Queen and wasn't as good, but maybe I was subconsciously comparing to Freddie at the time. If Adam keeps rocking it out like this one, looking forward to more.
+Jess Dela Fuente first at Juliusz. He's not trying to be Freddie, but he is as close as they cold ever get. Its about memorializing a legend and making so many fans happy. Now to Jess. I agree 100%. When I saw him on American Idol. The irt thing I thought was that the guys should scoop him up quick and tour with Adam. Bonus is he's just as flamboyant, wears snazzily clothing, and he has mad respect for Freddie and Queen
bull
His voice pierce through the horrible echo in the hall and still shine like a diamond , pretty amazing
Your comment made me think of an old video (2010) of Adam Lambert exercising on a stationary bike huffing and puffing while singing "shine like a diamond 💎.
His range gives me chills every time!
There is no QUEEN without king!!!
ThePetar89 Right, It's now called "Queen + Adam Lambert"
ThePetar89 Juvenile comment. How old are you?
14 :) but you must agree.. Perhaps I am a little angry on this guy for no reason.. i just want freddie back and I wish that all of them stop playing after him like John Deacon and not do this...
ThePetar89 Freddie's gone and not coming back. If Roger and Brian want to continue to perform, that's their right. 67 sold out arenas says there are plenty of fans wanting to see them perform.
ThePetar89 Technically Mercury was also a cock sucker :). And it's unfair to say that Queen should stop performing because Mercury is gone. Freddie was undoubtedly the heart and soul of Queen, but Queen was not formed by one person. It is something that was created through the other band members as well as their millions of fans. If they wish to continue playing as Queen, and fans wishes to continue seeing them, then they should continue.
I'm glad that Queen got someone who doesn't try to sound like Freddie Mercury.
Agreed, Marc Martell wouldve been a good choice but he sounds too much like freddie
@@AeonAxisProductions no it would have been a terrible choice. Not even mentioning the desecration to Freddie, Marc doesn't have the lungs to last 2 hours, can't sing hard rock (with rasp and growl) no charisma, no showmanship.
marc martel should sing in his place
Because no one can they need to make it their own the original cannot be beaten
@Nuke'Em no thanks, I don't want to see Céline horrified and crying a second time. Once was enough.
P. S. Somebody to love is a soul song, not rock. And Bo Rhap is in sections, the rock part he can't sing it with rasp or growl... Knock your self out listening to 'mamaaa'. It's the only word he does well and in Freddie voice.
Adam Lambert is a perfect fit with Queen👍👍👍👍👍
What a show!!! Adam Lambert- the best "gift" for Queen. He is different from Freddie but the same talent and spirit . FABOULESS.
I'm sure he is "amazing" with that voice
Adam is frigging awesome - best choice possible to sing for Queen. What a performance!
george michael was slightly better.
Kyle Roberts No.
OOMackica 1000 nope
George Michael is dead and he did not want to perform regular with Queen (Brain&Roger asked him)
George Michael was too unique to sing for Queen.
Adam is off the hook fabulous.
Freddie would be so proud!!
blastphmamous sinner
+Alex Dunn that feelts themself guilty for watching non pure things
Freddie was gay too, so umm why are you on a Queen video period?
@Samuel Taylor - Judgemental & hurtful sinner!
You've got to be kidding! Do you live in this century or belong to a cult? This is too insane & ridiculous for words.Why are you even here?
Adam Lambert & Queen literally cure my depression episodes
@MARTIN LOIS OBIRA QUEEN +Adam Lambert has been entertaining me for years. I am thankful and happy.
Funny: Lambert causes me depression.
@@Galron1979because you are a dedicated fan of Paul Rodgers, just like me. Paul and Adam are both unique and original vocalists and both also have successfull solo careers. Their livelihood doesn't depend solely in singing Queens songs. Do you know Paul suffered multiple TIA's in 2014, he underwent a very dangerous throat surgery and couldn't talk for years. With Cynthia's loving care, and patient urging for him to speak again, they succeeded. Paul Rodgers released a new solo career Album, which him and Cynthia announced in October 2023 live in one of 🇺🇸 TV show.
I’m sorry but Adam’s voice is out of this world!!
Don't be sorry Mark you are absolutely correct!
Freddie Mercury para sempre 😢😭
🎹🎤🚶👑❤
Brasil 🇧🇷
Adam Lambert is absolutely amazing. Much respect to him for helping to keep Queen alive and going strong.
Adam is so amazing!!! He is definitely staying true to himself as he honors the great Freddie Mercury!!! So very proud to be a fan. Adam has an Amazing voice and such a beautiful soul. Oh yeah I forgot to mention he is gorgeous.
Wow indeed adam lambert is a great singer,How long have you been a fan of Adam lambert
People need to stop hating on Adam Lambert. He has a fantastic voice and he can sing their songs. And if he’s good enough for Brian and Roger then he should be good enough for Queen fans
He's more than good enough for me he is the best vocalist i've heard with the most beautiful voice and has stage presence and charisma.
I’m seeing Queen and Adam in Feb here in Australia. I loved Freddie too but I’m looking forward to seeing Adam perform with my idols.
Brian the man! Rocking the hairdo STILL and Adam portraying Freddie like a champ. Adam is a fantastic singer and he adored Queen. They made the right choice choosing him to fill in. He didn’t replace, he just filled in and did his best! 👏 great job, Adam!
Adam is the most CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED MALE VOCALIST OF THIS GENERATION. WHY IS EVERYONE SLEEPING ON HIM?!?
He is overrated, that's why.
Because hes shit
@@nikimati3695 very overrated. Karaoke at best.
@@bobwallacejnr6852 I couldn't agree more.
Freddie is smiling big time for this young man bc I am blown away!
tleesmith781 he's doing it right making it his own without damaging the legacy of Freddie
@@pamodhudawatta4922 absolutely. It's the right way and the most difficult one, it's easy going for copying and imitating... It's extremely difficult to make it your own and add new fresh flavours, which he does and he's fantastic.
peter pan go search Marc Martel. You’ll lose your mind if you thought this was good.
Here we go again, Marc Martel aaaalll over again ..smh
@@BestBeatsDailyUS why is it when people compliment Adam marc martel lovers always butting in...like people are allowed to like Adam more. We like originality and individuality not impersonators ...
I like that he isn’t trying to be or act like Freddie Mercury
Yeah that's the Marc guy who is trying to be like Freddie
Kyle the Neko no he isn’t that’s just how he sings. Everyone has a unique way of singing, and Marcs just sounds a lot like Freddie’s,
@@noicebiscuits7233 no he doesn't, he sounds nothing like Freddie that one guy on the Australia's Got Talent sounded just like Freddie
No Adam is very original!
@@noicebiscuits7233 that's not how he sings LOL
watch his cover on other songs from different artists
he sounds literally nothing like fred
if you think he still does then you're just highly biased towards anyone that "sounds like Freddie"
Saw Queen with Adam Lambert a few years ago, he came on stage, very humble, saying he was never going to, or intended to 'replace' Freddie, he just wanted to do his best to pay tribute to the man. (not his exact words but the gist of it). It was a brilliant show, with his own spin on a few songs, but Brain and Roger wouldn't have allowed that if they weren't happy with it imo.
People still debating who should've been the frontman for Queen while Adam has been performing with them since 2011. HAHAHAHA!
And the funny thing is, it's not even debatable.
"Roger and I have seen literally thousands of singers in our lifetimes including some great ones auditioning for our We Will Rock You show, but we’ve never seen or heard anything like Adam. I always think that Freddie, with a wicked smile, would say something like “I hate you, Madam Lambert,” because even Freddie would have been gobsmacked at his range and his ability to reinterpret these songs which the four of us originally created together."
(Classic Rock)
@@sasha07775 Hahaha, IKR. These people really thinks that they know Freddie more than his bandmates. Geez
I mean if they are going for the original Queen sound. Marc Martel is far better.
@@BnMProductions11 They're not trying to replicate what they had with Freddie since that will never be done. They are honoring Freddie's vision for the band.
"When the whole point of Queen was to be original."
Freddie Mercury
"A concert is not a live rendition of our album. It's a theatrical event."
Freddie Mercury
@@sasha07775 I mean it clearly can, he was a great artist and singer. But you're putting him on this pedestal and idolizing him as a god because he passed away. You can't honestly sit there and tell me he is the best singer to ever walk the earth. That is statistically impossible. Marc Martel sounds nearly identical.
These comments are ridiculous. Adam is NOT trying to imitate Freddie in any way. He's singing the classic songs the way he sings them and he's performing them how he performs. He's not acting like Freddie or singing like him. And let's be real, there's no artist currently in the world other than Adam who could do these songs justice. Surely even the hardcore queen fans can admit that he's absolutely amazing.
And if you don't like it, don't go to the tour. Pretty simple.
He is not doing them justice though ,he's murdering them ,its embarrassing to see amazing songs ruined by Lambert's limited vocal range.
Limited vocal range? Are you joking?
dan44762000
Awwww! It must be hard not knowing anything about music, singing, vocal ranges etc so you end up thinking that between 3 and 4 octaves (Adam's known range) is a "limited vocal range" ROFLMAO. :( So sad for you. Fortunately THOUSANDS of people worldwide arent as musically illiterate as you and have been enjoying the brilliance of Adam performing Queen's music since June this year. And more to come. Shame you wont be able to appreciate it but they're selling out all over Europe so lots of others will so that's fantastic.
***** Vocal range by definition means the span of notes a vocalist is able to produce, meaning that you have to include the lower notes as well, regardless of what people "care about". Facts are that Freddie had a four octave range (F2-F6) while Adam's is just over 3 (G#2-B5), both excluding spoken/fry notes.
Even when we only consider high notes, Freddie could go significantly higher than Adam, simply because he comfortably could go well into the 6th octave both live and in the studio. The only advantage Adam has over Freddie is when we're talking about "full voice". Adam is able to seamlessly move into a very heady and in my opinion rather thin sounding register that could be considered "full voice".
***** I have forgotten more than you will ever know !
Adam Lambert is phenomenally talented and his stage presence is off the chart!! No one comes close to his vocal range!! He’s a star in his own right, fabulous!!
Adam sings like a heavy rock singer.the song doesn't need all them riffs and high notes added to a perfectly great song.
Saw Queen and Adam Lambert in Nashville , TN. BEST CONCERT I HAVE EVER WITNESSED !!!! Adam just gets better every time he performs ...amazing talent !
We ate going October 10th! In Detroit. I am so excited
Dang! When did they come to.Nashville? I live in Memphis, Tn and would have gone in a heartbeat if I had known. Guess I was living under a rock LOL
How can people dislike this? Adam put up an amazing performance, I can't believe how people can be so close minded as not giving any credit to Adam's outstanding vocals, his control is absolutely superb and he makes it seem so effortless. I don't think he's fit for all Queen's songs, but he kills it with many songs including this one as well as Another One Bites The Dust, Who Wants To Live Forever and so on. Freddie is my favorite vocalist, but there's not a one goddamn reason to compare the two, just appreciate that these classic songs can be enjoyed live even today
I can.
I'm a Queen fan since more than 30 years and I don't like Adam Lambert, because he's just a guy from a talent show and NOT a real rock singer.
Jeff Scott Soto would have been 1000 times better: try to listen to him.
I always knew Adam Lambert would go far! I remember throwing my shoe at the television when he didn't win American Idol. I was so upset because I knew he was a champ. Just love him. So happy for him.
That he didn't win crushed my soul. But just look at him now!
Adam didn't win because Queen wants him
I must admit, originally I thought “theres plenty of other singers out there that sound almost exactly like Freddie. Why didnt they just recruit one of THOSE guys.” But after hearing Adam Lamberts incredible vocals and his interpretation of Queen/Freddies songs, I now realise he is a much better choice than all those imitators. Queen wanted to preserve, not replicate, Freddies unique sound/presence, whilst allowing his songs to live on. Adam is by far the best choice of singer/artist to achieve this.
@ Johnny Dee - Adam is perfect.
exactly this. So many people dont get it and think it should have been an impersonator which is the last thing anyone really wants
I AGREE! IT'S THE REAL TRUTH! ADAM IT'S AGOOD ARTIST!
Adam Lambert is the only choice. Brian May, Roger Taylor and Spike Edney fell in love with his voice way back in 2009 that's why they patiently waited 2years for him to complete his successful worldwide tour of his 1st Album.
Thank you for choosing Adam, Mind blowing
I don't understand why people are criticising Adam Lambert and saying he's no Freddie Mercury... what people don't understand is he's not trying to be, and Queen aren't trying to replace Freddie, this is meant to be a collaboration between a great rock band and a great vocalist. I for one, think Adam has an insanely good voice, and worthy to be on stage with Queen.
That said, that awful 'boyband' did NOT deserve to be on stage with Queen + Adam Lambert!
There is only one ADAM LAMBERT. On a scale from 1 to 10, he is easily an 11.
Infinity.... ☺️
@@pankakesnotstellar Actually you're right! Cause he isn't even on the same scale as other male vocalists. People should invent new words to describe his singing ability and technique.
0/10 for adam
but more importantly, there is only one freddie mercury and on a scale from 1 to 10, he is easily BEYOND infinity.
Adam's voice is different to Freddy's but my god in a way this is history repeating itself Freddie approached the band and asked to join and here we are again a young singer joining the band with a hell of a big talent well done Adam Lambert
How long have you been a fan of Adam lambert
Happy 40 birthday Adam, may you continue bringing joy and happiness around the world.
