The only person who could front Queen credibly at this point is Myles Kennedy. He's the best English-language singer alive.

^^ Listen to this. Creed Mk. II(Alter Bridge) suck ass but some of their songs shine because of Myles Kennedy. He's a much better singer than Adam Lambert.

The dude from Highlander? He's pretty badass. Don't know why Queen fans would have strong feelings about him, though.

He is good but I fail to see that he has a better voice than Adam's, though it does go to prove that everyone DOES indeed think that his/her own fleas are gazelle's. It would be a pretty tall order for either one of them to follow in Freddie's footsteps.

Only in a Queen Musical - movie, I can see him.
Good voice, not for Qyeen +
Queen + must stop. It was shit idea and Q+Adam is even more.

I agree!...Queen + didn't workout. At least they tried. Maybe lambert could play a young freddie in the queen movie if it's ever made.

Adam is right for Queen like the moon is made of green cheese i.e. it's a notion that is a wholly made up and imaginary construction. Lambert is a middling, inconsistent talent who after clawing his way up to understudy after 15 years or whatever had the wisdom to audition (with a souless, middling rendition of Bo Rhap) for American Idol. There are pots of people as good or better than him, and admittedly pots more who are worse. Regardless, he is the one who has created opportunities for himself and he is as worthy of it as anybody else in the position. Since he does have a look and voice that shines on the right stage with the right material it would be nice if he'd get to knowng who he actually is as a potential artist (right now he's pretty much just a performer) and quit interspersing his more appealing and interesting sounds with horrible singing and dancing around like a complete tool.
On another note, his hard core fans are completely nuts. Wow. They band together and buy multiple copies of his singles and his album (multiple copies of his ALBUM!) in weird attempts to manipulate the charts. They kind of [url=http://www.brianmay.com/brian/letters/lettersdec09.html#01]all sound like this[/url]. Bizarre.

I dont want a Freddie impersonator in the band.
If there's gonna be another singer join Brian + Roger then he/she should do the same as Paul Rodgers and sing the songs in their own inimitable style.

Eeeeuuuuuuwwwwwwwwww..............
The AMA thing was like he just sort of went out of control. I see both sides of it and am really ambivalent about it in a [i]reasonable[/i] sense, but I [i]feel[/i] like he crapped in his nest. The worst part is that he sang so poorly on top of the outrageous performance. But I think that the biggest problem with the networks and such is that he rehearsed the thing one way and performed it another. I thought the song sucked anyway, just for starters.
And what is with this upswept hairdo that I keep seeing? Looks like a fright wig. Ugh!
I still see a lot of potential but I have no idea where the young lad is headed now, though I've heard that he is bound for Canada and the UK..................

Check more stuff out by Myles Kennedy. I guess it all boils down to taste. I don't really like most of Myles' music(too poppy and melodic) but I can't deny that he has a great voice. I sincerely believe he has more power and better control than Adam Lambert.
Another guy who's as good or better than Adam is Mike Patton. That guy has a better range than even Freddie and Ian Gillan(not that it matters).
But yeah, I have to admit that Adam Lambert is undoubtedly one of the top 2-3 singers of today and I listen to A LOT of music of a variety of genres having great vocals.
There are singers other than the aforementioned two who surpass Adam in one or two vocal criteria but Adam is on the whole more well-rounded than the likes of Jim Gillette, Jimmy Gnecco, Daniel Gildenlow, Chris Cornell etc.
I just meant to say that Myles Kennedy would suit Queen better since he's a CREDIBLE rock singer who has covered Queen in the past and probably won't pull any unexpected stunts that could seriously debilitate their collective social standing unlike a certain someone.

One of the things that I wonder about with Adam is that he appeared to promote one kind of music on AI, which is why I and a number of others supported him, but then his debut album has gone in another direction. Then he rehearsed the AMA performance one way and performed it another way. He also has said that he didn't want to be the poster child for the gay community, but then has done things to put himself right in the thick of it. Seems like a pattern.[/QUOTE]

Adam is ADAMAZING. Incredible singer.
And RIGHT NOW, Brian and/or Roger DON'T DESERVE to perform with him. He's way too talented to waste his incredible voice in weak bullshit songs like the very ones Brian and Roger wrote on The Cosmos Sucks (on which they also played like shit).
But if they were to try and make a serious album (and play it the way we know they can), he should be the first choice.

I agree. [/QUOTE] [/QUOTE]But at the moment it's a two way street. I would not want to hear Brian and Roger playing with the Adam who performed on Oprah. I'd be happy to hear them collaborate if they all pull the stops out. Otherwise I'll pass.[/QUOTE]
