I thought it was pointless. It just dragged.

The origin single is all I need. While the rock version is OK I just find the added crowd noise irritating.[/QUOTE]

Forgive me for asking. What do you mean by added crowd noise?

Well you're barking up the wrong tree there. I completely embraced Hot Space when it came out. Moved from the Jam to the Style Council with no problem. Moved from rock in the 70's to dance music at the end of the 80's, and on and on....

My point is I can take it that Freddie is no longer there and will happily go along with something new and worthwhile.

But this version of Love Kills is fucking bilge. The essence of the original has been replaced by a dirge. It adds nothing to the song and is utterly pointless.
No Freddie, No John.....No Queen

Which is your opinion?
Would you rather hear the same songs played over and over again? We'd all like to hear White Queen, Fairy Fellers Master Stroke and so on but it ain't gonna happen.
Anything new and different in the set is a bonus, and from reaction on here I think more people like the 'new' version of Love Kills than not

^ I'm actually EXPECTING to hear WHITE QUEEN on this tour.


No insider information. Just a gut feeling...


If not then I'll know not to trust my guts again.

Id expect a little nugget here and there depending on the venue.


As for love kills.
Oddly enough it was the only song Adam Lambert sounded like he was remotely interested in. The rest was lackluster like he phoned em all in.

Conversely, the band sounded FANTASTIC excluding the love kills solo.

It was very dull. Maybe if he maxed a vibrato pedal or used an e bow. Eh. .. I was expecting something flavorful, expecting it to go somewhere. ... you know like a Brian May solo or something

(Brian May was the guitarist for Queen)

From a Rolling Stone article:

"One of the rare song they've resurrected for the tour is "Love Kills," a 1984 Freddie Mercury solo track made with Giorgio Moroder for a restored version of the 1927 silent film Metropolis. "It was a disco record that Freddie did as a side project," says Lambert. "One of the things that Queen is doing this year is they've dusted off some older recordings, and they're remastering and reworking them for an album of newer versions of things. With 'Love Kills,' they took out all the disco production and turned it into more of a traditional Queen arrangement. It's an amazing song, very dramatic and powerful with a beautiful melody. We've been having a lot of fun playing it live.""

Hmmm Brian allowed or looks like Lambert opened a secret.
I've got the power to love to live I can't say it ain't right

Or he might just play a brilliant show with the rest of the band, to a sold out arena who are there to enjoy the experience of a live band playing a big show.

^ not possible when some people need to externalize their frustrations onto people who are enjoying their lives and doing what they love to do. Let's not be silly..
