I am disappointed as a newbie to Queen. I feel so shitty thinking/saying how much I dislike AL's voice since obviously the world and B&R love it. QAL seems to be the right collab in viewing the 6 of them on stage. It's unfortunate to me that I can't handle AL's vocals when listening to the vids. Too high in the tenor range. Not enough voice heft and grit in the tone. Don't like the vibrato and exaggerated notes not at all written into the songs composed by Queen. Queen's, especially Freddie's, intent to perfect every aspect of every song is well known. These are Queen songs unfortunately done as a tribute with yet another lead singer and two of the band members. We could opine a million years on who would be better than AL. There are many possibilities had B&R scouted a little harder. But really, they are going out as a tribute to themselves with a way lesser-than-Freddie lead man.
Probably because to a ton of fans, journalists, it feels like a tribute. Nothing new, just a rehash of the same old with a guy who can hit some notes that other singers couldn't. And the one thing that even long term intelligent posters on this board fail to comprehend is that Queen aren't, weren't and never will be "any other band."
