THE BIG PAUL RODGERS DEBATE!!

Hello Queen Zoners,

I have been watching the new tour on You Tube, and at various points in different songs, he does not sing (one vision being one), he does not seem to have much energy on the stage, what's wrong with him?

As we all seen at the Mandela concert he cocked up One vision, and got the words wrong for the show must go on, I don't mind him singing with Queen, but why can't he get the words right?

Well what do you think?

(All rants welcome including anti PR people!!)

Paul Rodgers is considered by many as one of the greatest rock n roll singers ever. What amazes me is that he delivers power, precision and range in his late fifities.

He is a fantastic singer that will certainly learn all the words.

Paul is a singer not a showman. His voice his fine, but he doesnt float my boat . I think there's no excuse for forgetting the words though, especially as alot of the tracks played were the same as the 2005 tour. If he's got alzeimers,he should bow out gracefully.

"If he's got alzeimers,he should bow out gracefully."

- What?? Nicely said. Not

....maybe, but fair.He's making alot of money from the Queen brand name, he has to live up to it.Nothing against him as a person, he seems a lovely guy, but he needs to put in more to his craft.

Well, my soul is NOT painted like the wings of butterflies... and I cannot fly, my friends.

Don't be too hard on yourself. At least you didn't die of AIDS.

Freddie freaks, stay away, I'm only joking :).

Naughty Wiley! ;)

o god here we f.....g go again.

Even Roger doesn't know all the lyrics...I was watching the DVD from the COSMOS ROCKS Special edition...he had to READ the words for "I was born to love you"...

there are lyrics on screen on stage.i beleive common nowaday.even great singers forget the words.what was it,,,it didnt start so fucking well was freds response to brian forgetting the song,save me.

They aren´t like us that we know every word and every "yeah", "Uh", "mmmm" or "c´mon" in every record... is obvius that they need to learn the lyrics again, and even read it... an its fine.

Hoy many times do you think that Roger has listened to I was born?... me?... 5.000 times... but him?

P.

ah... and about this topic: Paul is a great singer... and the cosmos rocks is a great proof.

He can sing ballads, blues, rock, hard rock, rock n roll... even there is a few falsettos and very high notes out there in some songs...

Simply amazing.
