I really can´t believe why this song wasn´t a smash back in 1977/1978...It´s so perfect and unique rock n roll...Freddie vocals, the lyrics, the main riff, the chorus...Everything is just made to be a hit
It’s a little too slow for a hit. If they skipped the beginning and go straight to the main part and tapping solo and the end. Damn that would be a hit but it is 6 minutes and repeats.
@@carolinepalmer5821 aww, but I love the lyrics so much. Definitely one of my favorites - the back and forth monologue from the one night stand to the wife and back to the one night stand. It just has this “closing time” mood of loneliness that I can imagine touring must have felt like.
@@ItsVictoriaG Yeah, do you mind explaining what the song is about. I thought it was about a one night stand, but you know how Brian is a private man and doesn't give a lot of answers away to his songs. I think he had some relationships while on tour, but he rarely admits it. I would love to understand how loneness led to a one night stand, but then made a bandmate even lonelier. idk You seem super passionate about the song so any insight would be awesome, go for it >
@@carolinepalmer5821 We know that all four of the guys weren’t perfect angels; they’ve admitted that. So in my mind, at least from the perspective of the song, that means cheating physically but not emotionally. There are three verses and everyone interprets songs differently. But the way I see it is that each verse is a different night. The first and third verses are one night stands on tour, and the second verse is when the protagonist is at home with their spouse. Verse one: he straight up sings that he’s with this girl who’s throwing around “I love you” in the throes of passion, obviously mistaking lust for love. Because he doesn’t even know her name and she’s in love with the /idea/ of him, of this rockstar persona. He knows that he doesn’t really love her, but he can imagine himself getting carried away and saying “I love you” in the heat of the moment, too. But if he does... he knows he only has his lack of self-control in the moment to blame. But he’s so lonely and isolated, (travel, perform, sleep, repeat) he imagines a universe where he actually could fall in love with this stranger, in a simpler world. And then he’s “bleeding inside” with guilt, because he realizes that it’s only a fantasy and he actually just hopped into bed with her because she wanted him and GOD, did it boost his ego to feel wanted. And God, did it feel good to not go back to an empty hotel room, alone with his thoughts about how he can’t be with his family. The first “it’s late, it’s late, it’s late, but not too late” isn’t the protagonist talking. It’s the nameless girl speaking while he’s in this post-coital state of regret and numbness. Is she speaking to him, offering to be with him no matter the cost? Or is she speaking to herself and he overhears her own self-doubt? I don’t know. Then the second verse, the protagonist is back with their spouse, “the sweetest love around.” But the more he tries to keep it together, to keep touring and earning a living while also staying faithful, the more he fails. The harder he works, the more it’s likely to happen again and the more he “lets [her] down.” But the wife can’t do this anymore, she can’t handle the tours and the cheating and the merry-go-round of having a husband and father to the kids and then being a single mom for 6 months and knowing her husband is unfaithful all the while. This time, the protagonist is saying, “it’s late, it’s late, it’s late, but not too late.” He knows he cheated and lived the rockstar life of excess one too many times, but he’s also begging his wife to stay together, that it’s not too late for their relationship and for him to change. (“I’ve been wrong but I’ll learn to be right.”) So did the wife keep him? Or was it too late for our dear protagonist? Into the third verse, we’re on the next tour. The protagonist is staving off the loneliness of everyone knowing who you are but essentially being trapped by your fame, relegated to the hotel room and the arena. So he falls into the same routine even though he said he would change. Another performance, another one night stand. But this time, the woman isn’t deluded into thinking she can be with the protagonist. She knows they’re from different worlds and he has his own life. And the media exists; she knows that he’s technically a family man. (“What game are you playing?”) And the protagonist is unable to respond because he knows she has him all figured out. Unlike with the first nameless girl, this girl’s honestly doesn’t allow the protagonist to ignore the promises he made to his family back home in exchange for a brief ego boost and companionship. She has him facing his life choices. (“You make me wonder, did I live my life right?”) But the protagonist knows that it’s basically over with his wife regardless, hence “time to set [him] free.” Then there’s the fire metaphor for passion and lust, only to be exchanged for guilt once the metaphorical water of the morning after extinguishes the lust. And then the lyrics circle back to “it’s late, it’s late, it’s late” But this time, there’s finality: “it’s all too late.” And the protagonist, in his desperation to not be lonely, is left utterly alone. But please don’t take my word as Gospel truth; it’s just my interpretation. The lyrics just paint such a VIVID picture in my mind, and the lazy rhythm adds to that morning after haze and shame. And the way the repetition/symmetry of the lyrics across the verses is broken at the end, when it’s suddenly “all too late” instead of “not too late” - it hits me hard. So many feels.

Yes, it is. I’m intrigued by the lyrics in this song. I would love to hear Brian explain the lyrical meaning behind it because I’ve read people describing several different interpretations and meanings. Would like Brian’s personal view on what they meant.
@@babooshka7601 ooh i see, yeah in early 79 freddie had almost completely lost his voice, especially during the early parts of the european tour and the japan tour. the band usually put in a great performance though. did you see them any other times?
@@Carbide1991 I don't say they were bad, but I would say mediocre. I saw them in 1980, 1982, 1984 and 1986 in Leiden. 1982 is my favourite concert. They played Liar.
i know and it is gorgeous. Adam is a true talent with a hell-of-a-set of pipes! Even Freddie couldn't do It's Late justice, aside the epic studio album take. Beautiful, hot, sexy, Brian May masterpiece!!! Thanks doll!
I was thrilled to hear this song performed live! I remember waiting to be let into the Bowl, and I heard a few measures of this song played during the sound check. I was thrilled beyond measure. They truly didn't disappoint!
I wasnt sure about the Adam Lambert thing, till I saw these dudes live. Holy shit, best goddamn live singer I have ever seen. Not Freddie....but absolutely the right dude to fill the slot.
Wish they would have included this performance on the new dvd Live Around The World along with Save Me ( which Adam sang so beautifully in London in 2015). They are two of my favorite Brian May songs. It’s Late is a masterpiece and Save Me is just beautiful.
To all of you who are new to Queen's music, I IMPLORE you all to listen to the studio version of this song from the, "News Of The World" album. Roger Taylor is a f#cking BEAST on the drums!!!
This is actually a QAL performance with Adam. It really doesn’t have anything to do with Freddie. He doesn’t always have to be mentioned on QAL videos. It really makes no sense.
@@carolhagerty4288 Why doesn't it have anything to do with Freddie? Freddie made all those songs better by singing it in the right style. Which Adam still struggles with. LOL
@@silasaraujo2849 Don’t you think I listened to the original? Adam hits his own other high notes that weren’t in the original. He sings it better, it just sounds better. Originals aren’t always nessessarily better.
Most people think Eddie Van Halen invented the "tapping" technique, but he got it from Brian May, who used it on this song (3:29) 1 year before Van Halen ever put out an album. Brian got it from some guy playing in a Texas bar, who told him he got it from BILLY GIBBONS from ZZ Top.
Actually,.. wrong facts about VH….. love Brian but let’s not start lies…. Lots of players were doing for years & years. It Eddie to make it stand out both in sound & techinue.
Agree, he is not imitating him, and that's great. Because no one can ever be like Freddie, anyway. For me Marc Martel is unwatchable. Yes, the voice is similar, but he is not a performer, not a showman, only an epigon. Who imitates Freddie. Freddie remains no.1 forever, but if we want to hear these songs live, a frontman like Adam's caliber is needed
@@carolhagerty4288 music is subjective, I very much enjoyed the video as it is my favourite Queen song, as I previously stated. I like Led Zeppelin, but I couldn't imagine anyone else singing stairway to heaven . If they did I'd probably make the same remark.
This is an awesome song. I hate the lemmings that only know and cheer their mainstream stuff. Real fans know about this and other jewels. And Lambert did as good a job as ANYONE not named Freddy Mercury. Queen is a one of a kind band. Fits under nothing and everything and THAT'S WHY I LOVE IT.
Adam also has the stage presence like Freddie did. Very flamboyant and flashy like Freddie was, especially in the 70’s. He’s a performer. Marc is just some dude who can sing a little like Freddie. And yes I said “a little”. The more I listen to Marc the less I think he sounds like Freddie.
You'll never see Marc sing GET DOWN MAKE LOVE, live on stage. He knows he'll be ostracized and probably excommunicated from his church. Like a cheap reproduction of a real piece of art, Marc is really cheap. He's unknown in the real global music and film industry for at least the last 25 years of his singing career. His last grasp to earn money is mimicking Freddie Mercury. Without Queens songs, he has nothing, couldn't even revive a solo career.
He’s a pop star with shoehorned into the role of a rock star. Doesn’t really fit. He’s an Incredible voice, but in the context of this type of music his improvisations and expression just do not sound great
I guess if you haven't heard the original , it is ok. The original has the emotion, the raspiness and the harmonies on the chorus that make it a classic. Heading back to the Maida Vale studio version. Peace.
Love this song. Very Zeppelin-esque This rather rare live version is good but it's sorely missing all those amazing drum fills. I feel Roger's a bit rusty on this one.
Yeah he’s an old man and plays like an old man that’s past his prime. His tempo gets a little off and when he tries to do too much with the kick then him and the bass player aren’t exactly tight. It’s not about how good they still are. It’s all about getting to see two members play from one of the greatest bands that ever existed. That’s the experience you go for.
I feel so bad for being biased but it’s just not the same without Freddie! I know that’s kinda the point, if I enjoy the songs less ughhhh Adam Lambert still has a great voice and stage presence though!
Wow.. Just wow.. Thid song is an absolute peice of art and Adam does it perfectly, I honestly prefer this to Freddie's recording.. Just how much of a genius is Brian May??
Adam does it better. He sounds better. He sings it better. I’ve heard both, and he is just honestly better. Just because it was “Freddie” doesn’t always mean it was the best. Freddie had no where near the LIVE singing ability that Adam Lambert has.
@@carolhagerty4288 Well, you're kind of correct... if you're only comparing Adam's live voice to Freddie's voice from mainstream concerts (Wembley 86, Hammersmith 75, Montreal 81, Milton Keynes 82, etc). But there's countless audience recorded concerts where Freddie's vocals surpass Adam's
@@chewymew hopefully your summation made you feel better. Paul Rodgers is Queens frontman from 2004 to 2008, Adam Lambert is Queens frontman from 2012 to present Queen and Adam Lambert's 2023 NA TOUR starts in October. Edit: both Adam and Paul are forever part of Queens history and legacy.
you're a buzzkill dude. Obviously freddie was one of a kind. But people still want queen. And queen still wants to play. So what do you want? a freddie backing track the whole time? If you aren't a fan, get to stepping and let freddie's legacy continue. Because you know what? Adam is one key reason why the music is still thriving. If queen stopped playing, so many younger generations would never experience freddie's voice in the first place. You must be fun at parties!
I think Adam generally does a fine job, but this one definetely doesn't sound convincing with Adam's vocal. Too thin and very far from Freddie's raw and powerful vocal. In this case, I'd say Pink's raspy power vocal could do almost full justice to the original. She has done convincing live covers of Queen a couple of times before, and this ballad is within her range.
Completely disagree.. With everything you said.. There's a big difference between having a "thin" voice and a high pitched voice. Adam is a tenor with a relatively darker timbre and a beautiful tone, something pretty rare for his voice type. And he's the furthest thing from "thin". Pink is OK, she can't do justice to this one though, and she herself admitted Adam is a way better singer than she could ever be.
I prefer Adam singing this. In my opinion, I never found Freddie’s voice to really have a true rock edge. Adam’s voice has that more gritty feel for me.
This version misses nothing but it has much more melody. It's an improvement on the original. And this is Freddie live so you can really buzz off to nonsense land, your land. czcams.com/video/dw-m7ZUUE-s/video.html
@@pankakesnotstellar lol, you are completely deaf to tones and melodies. This version actually loses the rage and tone of Blues in the Original, not to mention that Adam doesn't beat the E6 at the end, like in the Original recording.

Watch Adam Lambert singing Nessun Dorma with Queen in the midst of their 2hour concert in Bologna in 2022, and when sang it again live on stage a few months back at J. Hudson Show. Adam Lambert is a classically trained tenor.
Adam Lambert is incredible and perfect for Queen. They have been reignited with Adam as frontman. Look how crazy popular and successful they have become again....with Adam. He deserves much of the credit for that.
@@adammendoza3597 One note makes a whole song? Adam sings many high notes throughout the song, unlike the original. He puts a lot more power and muscle into it than the original. He does it his own unique way.
Bill Rowse lol... Freddie wished he had half the control Adam has over his vibrato and generally over his voice and in holding the notes... Adam has held out notes for 15+ secs several nights in a row during the EU 2017 tour and it was nothing for him. Lame musically challenged fanbois is the theme here and op is a good example.
Yeah u know what I was turned off when I saw them live with Lambert, guy does to much with his voice. Just sing the song, stop showing off. U got a great voice. That high note he hits is horrible. It's a shame they didn't shine light on Brian's two hand tapping on solo, would have loved to see that
Charles Messina never in his life has Adam Lambert hit a horrible high note live or otherwise... also when you hear him, leave your wishes and pretensions at the door. He will do his version. If you can follow it, good, if you can't also good.
Charles Messina lol.... Yeah Van Gogh was just a painter. Edit : also are you seriously telling the guy filling in for Freddie that he's too over the top?! You're hilarious. 😂😂😂
Martel would be extremely shit at this song as well as Spread Your Wings. That's why he hasn't performed it. If he struggles with Bb4s on Somebody To Love, then he has no chance singing B4s and higher in this song.
How about Marc Martel singing GET DOWN MAKE LOVE live on stage in Arenas and Stadiums followed by 24 to 26 additional Queen songs in their original keys without mimicking Freddie Mercury, at least 3 to 4 successive nights. He was pitiful the last time he sang WWTLF and comedic trying to copy Freddie Mercury's iconic stage moves, he flips and flops like a shrimp pretending to be a lobster 🦞.
Freddie Mercury, Queens frontman, Paul Rodgers, Queens frontman from 2004 to 2008. Both Paul Rodgers and Adam Lambert are forever part of Queens history and legacy.
Adam Lambert is not interested in competing or being a better vocalists than anyone dead or alive. Queen chose Freddie, Paul and Adam is their last frontman. Queen and Adam Lambert's 2023 NA TOUR starts in October.
Its terrible to have a singer for queen make his own versions of songs when its a nostalgia fix for fans who want to hear a freddie type! They need Marc Martel or anyone who can sing like freddie just like Journey did with their newwer lead singer they has from the Phillipines! Do a competition and whoever can sing like freddie gets the spot for the next tour! The fans deserve it or Hologram Freddie on stage with them so we get his voice at least
Honestly, I believe audiences would get tired of hearing a Freddie imitator voice very quickly. Freddie was only once in a lifetime and he should be remembered and respected for his unique one and only voice and persona. Why would I ever want to go to a concert and listen to an impersonator. It would feel sad and the height of disrespect to Freddie’s memory. I mean, c’mon, I can’t believe people would honestly enjoy that, it would be an insult and a mockery. Adam is NOT an imitator, NOT an impersonator. He is himself, he does the songs his own way, the way he feels them. He is his own artist and performs in his own style. Brian and Roger gave Adam that freedom, to sing and interpret their music the way he personally felt it. And, in my opinion, he breathes new life into Queen and is a breath of fresh air for them. And that is why they wanted Adam and not a sound a like. Do you really think they would want to go on stage and hear someone imitating their dear friend’s voice night after night? Adam is amazing, phenomenally talented, with a magnificent voice. He’s charismatic, has a great stage presence and is a great showman. He is Queen’s second great frontman. Thank you Brian and Roger. You picked a perfect treasure for your second go round.
Oh, it’s late alright. Too late to save this trainwreck. Queen died in the 90:s. Accordingly, the stage act that calls itself Queen today sounds and looks like an animated corpse. Stiff, false, decaying, hollow, lifeless. It is sad to witness.
Only Freddie died in the 90’s. Queen, who were always Brian an Roger, is very much alive as much as you would like to believe they’re not. You are delusional. They are as popular and successful as they’ve ever been. Their millions of fans prove you completely wrong. So you may live with your sad delusion. Too bad for you.
This is not Queen. Queen was Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon. This is QAL which is half of aging Queen + a failed reality show loser + back-up musicians. It is a Queen tribute band at best, an utterly pathetic cash-grab.
@@Bot101101 Queen is Brian and Roger’s band. They own it, they originated and founded it. It belongs to only them. Freddie was just part of it, the lead singer. This is definitely still Queen with Adam as their second frontman. Adam never lost, he conquered that show. Everyone knew it. It was an obvious fixed win for the other guy whose career never really went anywhere while Adam blew up and became a multi, multi millionaire long before even joining Queen….and still continues to make millions from his solo career. Btw, tribute bands NEVER contain original members, in case you weren’t aware.
Oh, Haggy, you sweet fool. You sprout lies just like your grey hairs. Brian and Roger were Smile, a total failure that recorded six songs and disbanded when their third member (Tim Staffell) left. They had nothing when they teamed up with Freddie. He came up with the name Queen. He was the driving creative force, designed their crest and wrote most of their hits. Deacon was recruited before their debut album and his iconic bass lines is one of the most defining features of their music. May and Taylor are half of Queen, always has been. So why did Adam lose? Because he failed a popular vote against a total nobody like Kris Allen. Unsurprisingly, as Lambert has always been a loser, a glitzed-up karaoke singer with a goat vibrato that is all about image and not about any sort of artistic quality.
Botty (M3) I see your bad mouthing Adam on a video which is 5 years old WHY? Nothing will change BotBot can't you read it says Queen (Brian and Roger) + Adam Lambert and as you already know they are planning another tour next year now as I have said on various videos you're the one sprouting crap so do everyone a favour, grow up and GO AWAY.
Hello Bob long time no speak, still trolling all QAL videos I see, this was 5 years ago and they are still together. Adam sang this perfectly, unfortunately for you they are speaking seriously of touring again next year after their very successful Rhapsody Tour this year, he is not destroying anything if you don't like don't watch, the amount of AL haters on here is pathetic nothing will change Bob, you have a Scottish name where are you from Bob?
You've always been critical of Adam Lambert because you are a fan Marc the mimic who failed with his Christian music, his last grasp to earn money is mimicking Freddie Mercury since 2012. He's still unknown in the real global music and film industry. He was pitiful the last time he sang WWTLF years ago and comedic trying to copy Freddie Mercury's iconic stage moves.

man, never thought I would live to see sb performing this song live again
i know and it is gorgeous. Adam is a true talent with a hell-of-a-set of pipes!
Even Freddie couldn't do It's Late justice, aside the epic studio album take.
Beautiful, hot, sexy, Brian May masterpiece!!! Thanks doll!
One of the most underrated Queen songs ever it is.
Fantastic! Thank Brian for this beautiful song!
I was thrilled to hear this song performed live! I remember waiting to be let into the Bowl, and I heard a few measures of this song played during the sound check. I was thrilled beyond measure. They truly didn't disappoint!
Great song, Adam sounds sooo good singing this. What a fantastic performance👑🎤🔥
Bold Opinion, This is Queen's Best Song! Yeah I said it.
Agree
The best deep cut. There I said it. 🤗
My FAVOURITE Queensong since then...
Good job Lambert. Great song Brian!
I was there on my feet for the whole song! Thanks for capturing and sharing!
A great performance again by Adam , such an extraordinary entertainer, just LUVIT...💋💋❤️
I wasnt sure about the Adam Lambert thing, till I saw these dudes live. Holy shit, best goddamn live singer I have ever seen. Not Freddie....but absolutely the right dude to fill the slot.
Definitely agree with you.
Agreed...saw then in Baltimore...probably the best concert I've seen in my 40+ years
My favorite queen song of all time
R.I.P Freddie
Thank you Adam for honoring and celebrating him.
This is a really wonderful love song❤
Finally a good song by Adam, i enjoyed this one.
There all good, actually great.
Adam owned this one for sure!
Wish they would have included this performance on the new dvd Live Around The World along with Save Me ( which Adam sang so beautifully in London in 2015). They are two of my favorite Brian May songs. It’s Late is a masterpiece and Save Me is just beautiful.
@@carolhagerty4288 I agree. I love this song. Definitely one if my favorite songs by Brian May.
Hopefully there will be a volume 2 because they left out some other really great performances as well.
I love the blues riff in this song.
My favorite Queen song and they dropped it from their set list by the time they played Detroit a few weeks later!
raster431 Mine too, and they dropped it from Cleveland- so disappointing!
Yeah and dropped before Chicago. I was looking forward to this song and Spread Your Wings.
Thanks so much for this. I love Adam and Queen and this is one of my favorite songs. They all killed it in this.
Brian's sound is awesome! 😀
And Adam’s....the one who’s singing.
Shame they didn't play that in the UK. Love it.
Brilliant, thanks for this !
They nailed it!
Roger had to practice that one. He nailed it!
To all of you who are new to Queen's music, I IMPLORE you all to listen to the studio version of this song from the, "News Of The World" album.
Roger Taylor is a f#cking BEAST on the drums!!!
your vid has the best audio - thanks!
Killed it
ridiculously awesome.
awesome performance !
One of the most underrated Queen songs. It's my favourite Queen song!
What I would’ve given to see this song live
Adammm❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I fucking love this song
Freddie, we miss you.
This is actually a QAL performance with Adam. It really doesn’t have anything to do with Freddie. He doesn’t always have to be mentioned on QAL videos. It really makes no sense.
@@carolhagerty4288 Why doesn't it have anything to do with Freddie? Freddie made all those songs better by singing it in the right style. Which Adam still struggles with. LOL
@@babooshka7601 This is Adam’s style and it’s better than the original.
@@carolhagerty4288 Only in your fanatical head for Adam Lambert. The music is slower and Adam doesn't hit the C6 of the original vocals.
@@silasaraujo2849 Don’t you think I listened to the original? Adam hits his own other high notes that weren’t in the original. He sings it better, it just sounds better. Originals aren’t always nessessarily better.
always loved this.
This is one of my favourite Queen songs and the singer crucified it! Talk about over-singing it.
Most people think Eddie Van Halen invented the "tapping" technique, but he got it from Brian May, who used it on this song (3:29) 1 year before Van Halen ever put out an album. Brian got it from some guy playing in a Texas bar, who told him he got it from BILLY GIBBONS from ZZ Top.
Huh! Interesting trivia, thanks!
Flamenco players been doing it for 100 years
Van Halen didn't get it from May, he thought of it independently.
Actually,.. wrong facts about VH….. love Brian but let’s not start lies….
Lots of players were doing for years & years. It Eddie to make it stand out both in sound & techinue.
Always been one of my fave queen songs yet few non fans have even heard it
Not only that but many Queen fans overlook this track in favor of the hits
Only one Freddie, but imo not a bad effort. And more importantly 10/10 for not trying to be Freddie.
Agree, he is not imitating him, and that's great. Because no one can ever be like Freddie, anyway. For me Marc Martel is unwatchable. Yes, the voice is similar, but he is not a performer, not a showman, only an epigon. Who imitates Freddie. Freddie remains no.1 forever, but if we want to hear these songs live, a frontman like Adam's caliber is needed
@Chris, Not a bad effort? It’s effortless for Adam...and flawless.
@@carolhagerty4288 ..........purely based on the fact that it's my favourite Queen record of all time.
@@chrisl9620 But why did you say not a bad effort. Please explain, I’m curious.
@@carolhagerty4288 music is subjective, I very much enjoyed the video as it is my favourite Queen song, as I previously stated. I like Led Zeppelin, but I couldn't imagine anyone else singing stairway to heaven . If they did I'd probably make the same remark.
Awesome.
Wonderfull👄👄👍👍
Brian May !!!
One classic!
incredible.
This is an awesome song. I hate the lemmings that only know and cheer their mainstream stuff. Real fans know about this and other jewels. And Lambert did as good a job as ANYONE not named Freddy Mercury. Queen is a one of a kind band. Fits under nothing and everything and THAT'S WHY I LOVE IT.
Dios no puedo creer que lo vuelvan a tocar... Me muerooo
Brian still plays great solos. Amazing. Most of us have arthritis in our hands at his age.
Okay, I admit it finally: Adam is a darn good substitute for Freddy who is dead. He does a great job with this song.
BRIAN MAY, ROGER TAYLOR 💋❤️+ ADAN LAMBERT GRACIAS 🤩💪🏼😘
Does not get any better.
Not a big adam fan but holy fuck he was amazing on this my favourite queen song credit where it's due well done lad 👏👏👏
ソプラノ素敵ですね💖
Damn, great performance, I wish the vocals would have ended like the track and just cut the rest of the ending
Marc is good, but I'm not sure if they necessary want another Freddie, I actually like Adam
ikr
Adam also has the stage presence like Freddie did. Very flamboyant and flashy like Freddie was, especially in the 70’s. He’s a performer. Marc is just some dude who can sing a little like Freddie. And yes I said “a little”. The more I listen to Marc the less I think he sounds like Freddie.
Marc is like a shrimp pretending to be a lobster 🦞.
You'll never see Marc sing GET DOWN MAKE LOVE, live on stage. He knows he'll be ostracized and probably excommunicated from his church. Like a cheap reproduction of a real piece of art, Marc is really cheap. He's unknown in the real global music and film industry for at least the last 25 years of his singing career. His last grasp to earn money is mimicking Freddie Mercury. Without Queens songs, he has nothing, couldn't even revive a solo career.
Poor Adam even with a crummy hair cut he's a Rock & Roll STAR ⭐⭐🎉
He’s a pop star with shoehorned into the role of a rock star. Doesn’t really fit. He’s an Incredible voice, but in the context of this type of music his improvisations and expression just do not sound great
I guess if you haven't heard the original , it is ok. The original has the emotion, the raspiness and the harmonies on the chorus that make it a classic. Heading back to the Maida Vale studio version. Peace.
Heard the original and I honestly prefer this. My opinion
This is Freddie live. Some people are wilfully ignorant.
czcams.com/video/dw-m7ZUUE-s/video.html
@@pankakesnotstellar You get a version of the Jazz Tour, the worst tour for Freddie vocally, and he's even better.
@@silasaraujo2849 🤣🤪🤣
Freddie is the best
Why can’t some people give Adam credit. Is it so hard without always bringing up Freddie? Adam did a great job, he sounds awesome.
Carol Hagerty so should I say Queen is the best?
@@michaeltang8635 Yeah, maybe you should. Was....and is now.
Carol Hagerty ok haha
Yep, Queen and QAL. Great then....Great now. Definitely no haha
1:27 falsetto?
Love this song. Very Zeppelin-esque This rather rare live version is good but it's sorely missing all those amazing drum fills. I feel Roger's a bit rusty on this one.
Austin Dyer a bit??😂😂😂
Not to mention he's fucking 70+.....lol. He still does pretty fucking good for an old guy
Yeah he’s an old man and plays like an old man that’s past his prime. His tempo gets a little off and when he tries to do too much with the kick then him and the bass player aren’t exactly tight. It’s not about how good they still are. It’s all about getting to see two members play from one of the greatest bands that ever existed. That’s the experience you go for.
Not a Adam fan but gotta give him credit. This song fits voice not FREDDIE BUT HE
DOES HIM JUSTICE
Adam sounds great with them... better with Adam than some shit Vegas show featuring their songs...
I feel so bad for being biased but it’s just not the same without Freddie! I know that’s kinda the point, if I enjoy the songs less ughhhh
Adam Lambert still has a great voice and stage presence though!
Wow.. Just wow.. Thid song is an absolute peice of art and Adam does it perfectly, I honestly prefer this to Freddie's recording.. Just how much of a genius is Brian May??
This cover completely loses the edge, grit and bluesy feel of the song.
On the contrary, in terms of edgy grit, I like Adam singing this better than Freddie.
You're nuts
Heh, Brian dropped his coin (pick) at the end
Харесвам Куийн с Фреди!
No one sings it like freddie there can only be one
Adam does it better. He sounds better. He sings it better. I’ve heard both, and he is just honestly better. Just because it was “Freddie” doesn’t always mean it was the best. Freddie had no where near the LIVE singing ability that Adam Lambert has.
@@carolhagerty4288 Well, you're kind of correct... if you're only comparing Adam's live voice to Freddie's voice from mainstream concerts (Wembley 86, Hammersmith 75, Montreal 81, Milton Keynes 82, etc). But there's countless audience recorded concerts where Freddie's vocals surpass Adam's
@@chewymew hopefully your summation made you feel better. Paul Rodgers is Queens frontman from 2004 to 2008, Adam Lambert is Queens frontman from 2012 to present Queen and Adam Lambert's 2023 NA TOUR starts in October.
Edit: both Adam and Paul are forever part of Queens history and legacy.
you're a buzzkill dude. Obviously freddie was one of a kind. But people still want queen. And queen still wants to play. So what do you want? a freddie backing track the whole time? If you aren't a fan, get to stepping and let freddie's legacy continue. Because you know what? Adam is one key reason why the music is still thriving. If queen stopped playing, so many younger generations would never experience freddie's voice in the first place. You must be fun at parties!
My favorite Queen song. Or, one of them. If Brian just dyed his hair black, he would look the same as he did 40 years ago.
I think Adam generally does a fine job, but this one definetely doesn't sound convincing with Adam's vocal. Too thin and very far from Freddie's raw and powerful vocal.
In this case, I'd say Pink's raspy power vocal could do almost full justice to the original. She has done convincing live covers of Queen a couple of times before, and this ballad is within her range.
agree
Completely disagree.. With everything you said.. There's a big difference between having a "thin" voice and a high pitched voice. Adam is a tenor with a relatively darker timbre and a beautiful tone, something pretty rare for his voice type. And he's the furthest thing from "thin". Pink is OK, she can't do justice to this one though, and she herself admitted Adam is a way better singer than she could ever be.
Adam is a really good singer, but his voice doesn't fit the song too well
Adam sounds incredible and he sings this beautifully.....perfection.
@@GHENIC Adam Lambert is the best singer ever. Some people have nothing in their skulls.
The original has a lot of grit, anger and that bluesy rock edge. Unfortunately, this version misses bluesy rock grit.
I prefer Adam singing this. In my opinion, I never found Freddie’s voice to really have a true rock edge. Adam’s voice has that more gritty feel for me.
This version misses nothing but it has much more melody. It's an improvement on the original. And this is Freddie live so you can really buzz off to nonsense land, your land.
czcams.com/video/dw-m7ZUUE-s/video.html
@@pankakesnotstellar lol, you are completely deaf to tones and melodies. This version actually loses the rage and tone of Blues in the Original, not to mention that Adam doesn't beat the E6 at the end, like in the Original recording.
@@silasaraujo2849 get back to me when Freddie hits live anything worth mentioning and holds it for more than 2 seconds.
@@pankakesnotstellar Agree👍

Watch Adam Lambert singing Nessun Dorma with Queen in the midst of their 2hour concert in Bologna in 2022, and when sang it again live on stage a few months back at J. Hudson Show. Adam Lambert is a classically trained tenor.
They need to do a hologram of Freddy Mercury
They have been on certain songs, BR, LOML, since 2012 to present days. You'll see him again on their 2023 NA TOUR which starts in October.
Definitivamente, a AL le quedan mucho mejor las canciones del Doctor
He fits all the songs for Queen 2.0.
Queen+ Marc Martel please!!!
Neverrrr going to happen. Your wish is hopeless.
🤣when you see 5 🐕 in space dancing paw to paw.🤪
Great song second only to Fat Bottomed Girls IMO
Can't touch original!!
This is better.
@@carolhagerty4288 Than what? The studio version? If Adam only knew how to sing rock. LOL
@@babooshka7601 This is LIVE singing….and it’s better.
sorry Adam...
Not sorry, Adam has been the best and most perfect fit for Queen since Freddie.... he is their 21st century frontman and is magnificent
adam lambert is good. but not for queen...
Yeah
Adam Lambert is incredible and perfect for Queen. They have been reignited with Adam as frontman. Look how crazy popular and successful they have become again....with Adam. He deserves much of the credit for that.
Didn't hit the end note....You're not going to Hollywood Dawg.
Adam always hits every note....perfectly I might add.
@@carolhagerty4288 Well he didn't hit the most crucial note here...
@@adammendoza3597 What crucial note? I heard Freddie’s recording and didn’t pick up on a “crucial” note.
@@carolhagerty4288 The very end over the drum rolls. The high note scream at the end. It makes the whole song.
@@adammendoza3597 One note makes a whole song? Adam sings many high notes throughout the song, unlike the original. He puts a lot more power and muscle into it than the original. He does it his own unique way.
If Freddie could see this, he would die laughing again 😀😐
Freddie was very polite; he never said a bad thing about anyone in all his interviews.
Nina only about press, but its completely understandable
@Stu Casto I think Freddie would have loved Adam’s voice and talent. Brian and Roger said as much and they knew Freddie best.
Lambert... I just can't stand his shaky voice...
Leszek Wincenciak you don't have ears if you call that shaky... 😂 😂
Leszek Wincenciak Because Freddy NEVER used excessive vibrato....
Bill Rowse lol... Freddie wished he had half the control Adam has over his vibrato and generally over his voice and in holding the notes... Adam has held out notes for 15+ secs several nights in a row during the EU 2017 tour and it was nothing for him.
Lame musically challenged fanbois is the theme here and op is a good example.
Yeah u know what I was turned off when I saw them live with Lambert, guy does to much with his voice. Just sing the song, stop showing off. U got a great voice. That high note he hits is horrible. It's a shame they didn't shine light on Brian's two hand tapping on solo, would have loved to see that
Charles Messina never in his life has Adam Lambert hit a horrible high note live or otherwise... also when you hear him, leave your wishes and pretensions at the door. He will do his version. If you can follow it, good, if you can't also good.
peter pan He's no Freddie, sorry.
clange50 no he isn't. He's marvellous all on his own. Imagine that! 😉
never said he wasn't a good singer, I just think he's too over the top, he's in love with himself. He is not a great frontman he's just a singer.
Charles Messina lol.... Yeah Van Gogh was just a painter.
Edit : also are you seriously telling the guy filling in for Freddie that he's too over the top?! You're hilarious. 😂😂😂
Lambert sucks they should have that marcell guy sing it
Gary Mullen is not bad either
Martel wouldn't be able to sing this song for shit.
@@markandrews7835 Agree, in fact I don’t think I’ve ever heard him perform this song. Would be interesting to hear him try. Lol
@@markandrews7835 this is Freddie live. So a cheap Freddie copy can really fuck off. Lambert is unmatched.
czcams.com/video/dw-m7ZUUE-s/video.html
@@rodneyprill4618 G. Mullen is a fan of Adam Lambert.
This calls for Marc Martell
No need for a Freddie wannabe when the best singer alive is singing it...oh and Lambert is their final frontman.
Martel would be extremely shit at this song as well as Spread Your Wings. That's why he hasn't performed it. If he struggles with Bb4s on Somebody To Love, then he has no chance singing B4s and higher in this song.
Nothing pertaining to Queen calls for Marc Martel
How about Marc Martel singing GET DOWN MAKE LOVE live on stage in Arenas and Stadiums followed by 24 to 26 additional Queen songs in their original keys without mimicking Freddie Mercury, at least 3 to 4 successive nights. He was pitiful the last time he sang WWTLF and comedic trying to copy Freddie Mercury's iconic stage moves, he flips and flops like a shrimp pretending to be a lobster 🦞.
Only Freddie can bring this song to its full impact sorry adam good but not half what freddie brings
Freddie Mercury, Queens frontman, Paul Rodgers, Queens frontman from 2004 to 2008. Both Paul Rodgers and Adam Lambert are forever part of Queens history and legacy.
Adam Lambert is not interested in competing or being a better vocalists than anyone dead or alive. Queen chose Freddie, Paul and Adam is their last frontman. Queen and Adam Lambert's 2023 NA TOUR starts in October.
it's a pile of crap, not Queen
Why?
They are brilliant, and they are definitely Queen
@@hombrerusode40anos72 there's no why with musically challenged people. They just are musically ignorant. Like the op.
@@pankakesnotstellar yeah
Sir Brian May and Roger Taylor are and will always be Queen.
I can’t. 🤢
Can’t what? Listen to the best voice alive?
Rather dreadful
Rather brilliant
Its terrible to have a singer for queen make his own versions of songs when its a nostalgia fix for fans who want to hear a freddie type! They need Marc Martel or anyone who can sing like freddie just like Journey did with their newwer lead singer they has from the Phillipines! Do a competition and whoever can sing like freddie gets the spot for the next tour! The fans deserve it or Hologram Freddie on stage with them so we get his voice at least
They'd get criticism for that as well. They can't really win I guess
Entitlement is disgusting.
Honestly, I believe audiences would get tired of hearing a Freddie imitator voice very quickly. Freddie was only once in a lifetime and he should be remembered and respected for his unique one and only voice and persona. Why would I ever want to go to a concert and listen to an impersonator. It would feel sad and the height of disrespect to Freddie’s memory. I mean, c’mon, I can’t believe people would honestly enjoy that, it would be an insult and a mockery. Adam is NOT an imitator, NOT an impersonator. He is himself, he does the songs his own way, the way he feels them. He is his own artist and performs in his own style. Brian and Roger gave Adam that freedom, to sing and interpret their music the way he personally felt it. And, in my opinion, he breathes new life into Queen and is a breath of fresh air for them. And that is why they wanted Adam and not a sound a like. Do you really think they would want to go on stage and hear someone imitating their dear friend’s voice night after night? Adam is amazing, phenomenally talented, with a magnificent voice. He’s charismatic, has a great stage presence and is a great showman. He is Queen’s second great frontman. Thank you Brian and Roger. You picked a perfect treasure for your second go round.
@@tombrown4074 They definitely won, with Adam
You can feed your cheap nostalgia with any tribute band. There are 100s and 100s of those. This is QAL.
Oh, it’s late alright. Too late to save this trainwreck. Queen died in the 90:s. Accordingly, the stage act that calls itself Queen today sounds and looks like an animated corpse. Stiff, false, decaying, hollow, lifeless. It is sad to witness.
Only Freddie died in the 90’s. Queen, who were always Brian an Roger, is very much alive as much as you would like to believe they’re not. You are delusional. They are as popular and successful as they’ve ever been. Their millions of fans prove you completely wrong. So you may live with your sad delusion. Too bad for you.
This is not Queen. Queen was Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon. This is QAL which is half of aging Queen + a failed reality show loser + back-up musicians. It is a Queen tribute band at best, an utterly pathetic cash-grab.
@@Bot101101 Queen is Brian and Roger’s band. They own it, they originated and founded it. It belongs to only them. Freddie was just part of it, the lead singer. This is definitely still Queen with Adam as their second frontman. Adam never lost, he conquered that show. Everyone knew it. It was an obvious fixed win for the other guy whose career never really went anywhere while Adam blew up and became a multi, multi millionaire long before even joining Queen….and still continues to make millions from his solo career. Btw, tribute bands NEVER contain original members, in case you weren’t aware.
Oh, Haggy, you sweet fool. You sprout lies just like your grey hairs. Brian and Roger were Smile, a total failure that recorded six songs and disbanded when their third member (Tim Staffell) left. They had nothing when they teamed up with Freddie. He came up with the name Queen. He was the driving creative force, designed their crest and wrote most of their hits. Deacon was recruited before their debut album and his iconic bass lines is one of the most defining features of their music. May and Taylor are half of Queen, always has been.
So why did Adam lose? Because he failed a popular vote against a total nobody like Kris Allen. Unsurprisingly, as Lambert has always been a loser, a glitzed-up karaoke singer with a goat vibrato that is all about image and not about any sort of artistic quality.
Botty (M3) I see your bad mouthing Adam on a video which is 5 years old WHY? Nothing will change BotBot can't you read it says Queen (Brian and Roger) + Adam Lambert and as you already know they are planning another tour next year now as I have said on various videos you're the one sprouting crap so do everyone a favour, grow up and GO AWAY.
Adam Lambert ist wirklich schrecklich - unerträglich!
nice one Adam....way to destroy a rock legacy. Stick to karaoke
Hello Bob long time no speak, still trolling all QAL videos I see, this was 5 years ago and they are still together. Adam sang this perfectly, unfortunately for you they are speaking seriously of touring again next year after their very successful Rhapsody Tour this year, he is not destroying anything if you don't like don't watch, the amount of AL haters on here is pathetic nothing will change Bob, you have a Scottish name where are you from Bob?
You've always been critical of Adam Lambert because you are a fan Marc the mimic who failed with his Christian music, his last grasp to earn money is mimicking Freddie Mercury since 2012.
