... I was just curious on why he doesn't write songs or play an instrument. Anyone with inside-info?

In a somewhat similar vein as to Sinatra or Presley or Bennett or your average Joe......he's not good at it.

He does co write songs, it's obvious from some of the lyrics which one's he's had a hand in, but how much of them he writes is not known but he has always preferred to work in a team rather than solo and he has a ton of friends who are songwriters. He doesn't play an instrument though, he had piano lessons as a kid and gave them up because he didn't have the patience for it. He has got a guitar lying around now though and did post a pic saying "guitar lessons" a while ago so maybe he's been learning a few basics to help with writing.

It still strikes me it took five people, including AL to write TwoFux.

^^^ Some friends had already written part of it and said come listen to this and he liked it so they further worked on it together and I assume they didn't mind him being the one to release it, it's not like he started writing it and needed others to help.

Adam has a gorgeous voice and range. That is his instrument. Not everyone has multiple talents like Freddie!

Too bad he doesn’t have more talent, I looked at the songwriting credits on his last album. Nine writers for one of the tracks? Reminds of of Beyonce’s songs.
Adam obviously makes more money with Queen than he can make on his own. Glad Brian and Roger are there to help him financially.

Are you envious of Freddie? Freddie did more than AL could ever dream of doing.

Friends? By the credits I'm seeing, they appear to be the same people who write songs for Britney Spears, Beyonce, and Paris Hilton. Are you sure those writers like Max Martin are pals with Adam? They go out to dinner and go to the carnival and all that together?

I just complimented Freddie and you are still not happy. That’s pathetic.
Are you ever positive about anything?

The music industry dictates a lot of what happens, he was signed to Warner and they presumably wanted him to work with the hit makers Martin/Shelback and their team and when you're tied to a contract you don't have a great deal of say in what happens. There's songs on all his albums that he's co wrote but album 3 is the one with the least input from him. Seems he's changed things up this year, he's been working with independent songwriter friends, various one's and having a lot more input it seems though when the album will get released is anyone's guess, there's obviously label issues going on.
Obviously he makes good money with Queen and why not, he was asked by them and they couldn't be out there touring at the level they are without a singer so it's mutually beneficial, nothing wrong with that.

Yeah, you mentioned Freddie by name. Which happens in a blue moon unless you are comparing Freddie and AL. Thanks, no one needs you to give Freddie any compliments. Especially after you gve rotten remarks that he had sex with every gay man on the planet, that you clutch your pearls about him. That's pathetic of you. Also pathetic how you must big up AL all of time.
Yes, I can be postive. Can you be realistic at least once in regards to AL?

Who is he writing songs with? I'd like to learn about it.
Hmm... label issues. I wonder if it's the poor sales from his last two albums.

His issues about the record company, I guess another reason why he is so quick to jump in for Brian and Roger while his solo career has fallen behind.

I don't remember their names, he and they have posted clips on instagram over the last eighteen months he's been working on the album with various friends in the studio writing/recording. Most of them are actual friends he's known for ages. No idea about the label, he clearly can't say anything at the moment but it's possible they didn't agree on the direction he wanted to go since he previously said the album was completed but then he was back in the studio recording again. He's probably locked into a time limit where he can't go to another label or release music if he was the one who decided to leave.
