Adam Lambert Dear God No!!!!! Paul Rodgers did a great job and should come back for a few shows. I don't give a toss what some of the stupid anti PR brigade on here think. PR did a great job and would love to see him come back and do a tour.

You have the best of intentions but please, Queen are no more, Freddie is gone, we cant rush around looking for a replacement , he is irreplaceable, just enjoy the legacy.

Good God. Is it just me who thinks Adam Lambert is about as talentless as a turd - like most of todays X Factor/Idol contestants?

Adam Lambert ? Are you on drugs ? The video you posted is vocally one of the worst versions of We Are The Champions I have ever heard

Good, bad, or indifferent, it doesn't matter - it will never happen. If it were ever going to happen, it would have by now. Whatever buzz there was about the pair died down long ago.

Adam Lambert? No thanks. A guy who would put up a interesting combination with brian and roger is valencia (it´s the guy name not the band name right?). I recently listen to his tribute album to queen and it´s very good indeed. My fairy king by his band is awsome (not better than the original of course).

Wouldn't matter if Freddie himself came back from the grave. As all the reviews rightfully state, Queen had a 7 year start to their career (especially up to ADATR) that were their creative peak. What would Queen and Freddie do if he were alive that they hadn't already done? Techno, Euro-synth trance? They did it all, and the reason there is a buzz about the re=-releases is that the world at large is sensing that Queen were an unbelievable band at their peak. Working with "Adam Labmert" (or even Adam Lambert) would be pointless. Guy with a decent voice, no bona fides and they'd get savaged by the press. Do you think he'd lead Brian and Roger in a new musical direction? Get real.

He's got a fantastic voice, but he uses it to create utter SHIT. Who gives a fuck.

Adam sucks, in more ways than one.

Yep. We saw it way back when it happened.
The way Adam sang it, he made it all about him, and not the music.

This is a great discussion, but I am surprised at the answers so far, Adam is a brilliant vocalist and even Brain said he has a great instrument and would like to work with him, who is a better judge??
Check out this latest performance by Adam http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVdzx3A8Kno
He would do a great rendition of "Love of My life" in concert,
Like you say it's all about the music, not necessarily the person, and Adam would do the music justice

Chewbacca here is right. I listened to most of Adman Labmert's album and it was surprisingly shitty. Or perhaps a more accurate word would be 'boring'. It was boring and entirely predictable. Good voice, a touch hysterical delivery, promising live performer, sorely lacking in the musicianship.

Yeah, but the problem is that Adam has NO CONTROL over his deliveries. All he does is use the same "belt a note and slide to a head voice note" technique. It also doesn't help that he completely oversings during his cover versions. Freddie never oversang or got obnoxious during "we are the champions" or during "slow songs."

My point is that yes, he has a decent voice, etc. For my taste, (we all are allowed to have opinions, right? Even if they differ from yours?), his singing that night came off as conceit.
