If you're going to go through the effort to perform a resurrection, why not bring Freddie back?
;)
well, voodoo might dictate the requirement for a lock of hair or some such....and if it's resurrection required then the sacred incantation would need to be
"Back - hurry back, - Please, bring it back home to me, because you don't know what it means to me"
Hi King! That's exactly what was being said about the song Trespassing when it first came out--that it had the same vibe as AOBTD (was written by Adam and Pharrell Williams)! I think Adam really loves AOBTD and is happy to be performing it on the QAL tour. My favorite is Stone Cold Crazy! RCA wanted Adam to do an album of rock covers and that's kind of what caused the parting of the ways between him and the label but it probably would have been a heck of a great album. Have you seen any of his performances of Whole Lotta Love?
I saw a version of that on youtube a while ago........I recall I kinda liked the different arrangement actually..............didnt know that about him and the label, interesting............
Actually I was just listening to Aftermath..........and thinking, now that song would be cool with some Red Special all over it......lol...........
[/QUOTE]
I love Aftermath. Here is Adam singing that song as a guest performer on American Idol and, yes, it would really be great accompanied by the Red Special:
that compilation had a few tracks from an Idol performance...........one I really liked was him singing Tracks Of My Tears...............suits his voice totally perfect.......
I don't think I want to see anyone fronting Queen at this point. Sorry - but I"m not feeling it anymore.
I'd like to see Brian and Roger do solo shows - maybe with a deeper dive into the catalog, but the stadium-rocking, Queen+ formula leaves me cold.
Sounds great to me! I'd especially like it if they made a new album together, one that's not a continuation of Queen, but an extension of their solo-work!

There's an issue there. 50% of that double act crave the limelight and success too greatly, while the other half just likes to "do his thing".
I love Roger for his attitude, but Brian's insecurity will stop this idea happening
They did reunite for a X-mas show in 1992, but that was it. Tim was asked in 2004 or 2005 (before the QPR tour) if he was approached by the band to take the bass and he said something about not being in contact with them for many years
Just like a previous user said, I would really like to see Tom Chaplin fronting when Keane are on their breaks. Seriously, if he can pretty much parallel Freddie on It's A Hard Life, he could do any Queen track live, more or less, since Hard Life is one of the top 5 in terms of hardest vocal. But here's an extra idea for the purists who want Freddie back - just get some old video of him singing and occasionally playing piano if the song on the setlist has it, and then get Brian, Roger and the live bassist to play along. Just like the Q+PR versions of Bo Rhap.

Yeah, two hours of reverse karaoke..............really????...............Q+AL already do BoRhap pretty much the same way..........and theres LOML with the Freddie footage too...............
