I knew there would be rumors, but didn't take it seriously until now. Brian has said he's open to it. I'm surprised that this could actually happen. The kid is so young, what is he 20?...brian is 62?...but even saying that queen + lambert would be way big. Especially with the youngsters. Queen can't ruin their legacy. The songs have stood the test of time.
I agree with this.
He's not Freddie, and no one should say he's trying to be, but he certainly is showy and flamboyant. Queen was a showy band because of Freddie. He didn't just write and sing phenomenally well, he entertained. I think Adam entertains, too, though in his own way. Even if it's for only a year, with Adam singing their songs, I think the popularity of their music will see a major surge.

Its not a good idea to ruin the legacy with these ridiculous collaborations with shitty talentless people, they should let the name rest in peace, they are losing their minds.
I agree... after Roger and Brian laying into reality based music shows like INXS and Idol related shows... it would be damn ridiculous to have someone with NO established (if any) routes in music writing, experience. imo
But, if they wanted to they could do as they please. Wouldn't ruin the Queen legacy even in the slightest. Real Queen (a la the 4 of them) is set in stone and always will be. What B and R want to do now to pass the time is simply up to them. What and who do they need to prove themselves to?
I still don't think they'd do it. Still more likely to just go it alone, just the two of them. I'd love that, they have the tools and could have filled a concert with just the two of them (without PR) quite easily I think.
I don't think he sounds a thing like Freddie, which is all the more reason to do it. He does the 'gay Elvis' thing that Freddie did so well. [/QUOTE] [/QUOTE]My attitude is the same as it was in 2004 - do it, see what happens. If nothing else it'll piss off all of the moaners ...[/QUOTE]
It's really annoying discussing Idol on a Queen-forum!!!
It's really annoying seeing people like you and some others complaining in what it seems a negotiation for a colaboration of Queen with a contestan from AI.
You seem the idiot here without reading what they're saying
I know that Queen + lambert threads are gonna start anyday now, So I figured I would be one of the first ones to ask the question, is this gonna happen?....they looked so natural together. Lambert is truly the next freddie mercury, so why not have him sing a bunch of queen songs?... Imagine how huge it would be.
next freddie? are you out of your mind? clearly you are.
Adam's song "Crawl Thru Fire" (made before American Idol) Link here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SepAeYG7ngI
sounds like something QUEEN (if Freddie had lived) would've/could've done.
I think Adam should do a couple of songs with them but go solo and kick ass. He'll be huge and famous I promise. More than any other AI contestant, he's above AI.
i vote that Adam Lambert be the one to re-record all the songs from The Cosmos Rocks and even do it right away ..... maybe they can release it all over once again, with better promotion. [/QUOTE] [/QUOTE]maybe they even can take out some of the shittest lyrics .[/QUOTE]
