I found it baffling, that the poster IronButterfly is apparently never criticized by “Queen-fans“. I think that poster’s comments very seldom add anything to a topic. At least not here. It‘s just a repeat of the repeat of the poster‘s criticism towards SweetCaroline. I haven’t been here for too long. But from what I read on these threads, it’s the combination of these two posters, that‘s responsible for a lot of crap on here. But only one is blamed for it.

I find that unfair, so I spoke up. I don’t think one of them behaves better than the other.

Nah, girl. You slipped. You are another one who comes here to ream me out, defend AL and sweetcaroline. You made that clear days ago.
No Glambert think sweetcaroline can do no wrong and add to her pity party. No wonder why she can't admit to doing and being wrong. She's only year cause she's banned from QOL until next May.
I'm sick and tired of the lies being said about me, and even dragging my ill parents into her twisted agendas. Obviously, you are on her side.
When the hell does she post about Queen? Every blue moon? The dmb assed comparsions that she makes, Freddie's and AL's leg length just recently. And you come here saying I add nothing? The irony is mind boggling.
Have I come across you before other than here?

You two go on fighting on every topic I opened in this section for pages. There is actually no chance to see, if a few of your posts might add something. Let’s say, I don’t remember, coming across one.

I stated my opinion this time and last week. I think both of you must be mad. I‘m not on this board to read about the differences between two woman and the history, that you might have.
You seem to suffer under some kind of paranoia. I didn’t come here, because of you. You are saying, other Adam fans did the same as me? Did it ever occur to you, that sensible people might find the ongoing posts between the two of you extremly dumb and worthless? I‘ve seen and posted in several forums. But I can’t remember two people so thick, that they don’t realize, that they are tormenting a whole part of a forum. I opened two threads. Both of them are full of your drivel.

Don’t start again pointing your finger on the other one. It’s both of you.

You’re not even worth more of my time. Sorry, if that has been offensive, but that’s my opinion.

No, I don't suffer from some sort of paranoia. Thanks *sarcasm* for another load of crap you want to throw my way. A bit too obvious why you are here by now.

Why are you here? Maybe you should think about that.

Nice deflect...well nice try and nice fail on your part.
I am a Queen fan. I like some of AL's solo music. I even like some things about Q+AL. I don't like every little thing however. I don't hate every little thing either. That's the truth of it.
How about you, again, why are you here? Even though you are a bit too obvious why you are here.

The deflection is on your side.
I ask you, to really rethink, why YOU are here. You always question, why others are here. You say, you’re a Queen fan. OK. Then you should ask yourself, why so many of your posts aren’t about Queen or music or QAL. You seem fast to point the fingers on others.


You say, you’re a Queen fan. Then talk about Queen. Or QAL.


That’s what I will do for now. Because I am a music fan. I came to this forum, because I find some of the old topics about Queen and their history very interesting. Since I‘m also an Adam and know more about him than Queen, I felt more interest in talking about the collaboration with him, that’s why I started to post in this part of the forum.

I don’t want to bother other members with this drivel any longer. Sorry to those, that I fell again for seemingly useless exchange.

I read more about Queen than post about them on QZ. But I do discuss the band at times, go search if you don't believe it.
You have come here with your mind made me up almost right away about me. Thing is, before that we barely interacted. You have made snide remarks to and about me, even though I've never said anything remotely like that to or about you here. You make it obvious. Did I reply to you on QOL before this?

What is QOL?

I didn’t come with any mind made up. I addressed you, because of your constant snide and negative remarks about Adam’s fans. You might have an issue with one member (or maybe more, I won’t know).

Still, you made it sound, as if every fan of Adam, who comes here, is some kind of mad idiot. In this way, yes, you did offend me. You put all of us in the same box.

Queenonline.
No not every Adam fan is a mad idoit. I get along with Rockchic very well...she may feel differently who knows and she's free to say so.
More than once Adam fans have joined Queen boards just to promote and defend AL and that fan base and to have a pop at me. You took a little longer than some, but you did that as well. Pretty obvious. Now, I'd understand that a bit more if you and I crossed swords before, but you had things to say about me in a not kind way, even in your recent posts. All it proves is that you are another one with a twisted agenda, who wants people here to take your side of things. Not a good look from your few first posts, gotta say. Not that much difference when sweetcaroline comes here after her bans from QOL blaming me for it.

anadamfan, it’s impossible and disgusting! She/they don’t want to chat intelligently about anything. They want to chase Adam fans away from here like they did on QOL. There used to be quite a few of us there at one time. But as soon as we praised Adam we were considered enemies.

They don’t go to the QAL shows but they know everything about them! If they went, they would be blown away but then they wouldn’t have anything to bitch about.

The only way to deal with icy is to ignore her and not respond because otherwise she goes on and on and on to infinity!

I decided it’s enough of all that stupid fighting on this thread. Therefore I repost the last post, that was on topic.
I ask everyone, to stay on topic!

I'm relieved AL doesn't overdo it as much as he once did. Because sometimes it was...painful ;-).
He's learned to hold back, and from where and how I look at it, that's the biggest improvement of all.

Yeah I actually really like how he sings now, I wouldn't mind the odd insane vocal run on his solo tour just for fun but not all the time on nearly every song, it loses it's wow factor if you do it all the time, maybe that's why he's toned it down a lot. Plus it can't be great for your voice to do that as much as he used to.

I like it as well. And he still does his insane vocal runs, even with Queen. Just not that often, but still at least once or twice a show. That’s how you can actually say as a listener, when his voice isn’t that well on a concert day. On these days, he refrains from doing these runs.
These runs aren’t a problem for his voice, if done technically right. They would be for an untrained singer.

The whole Queen show is demanding. Therefore it’s structured to make it a bit easier to sing all these songs night after night without hurting the voice (too much). They almost never do more than two shows in a row. That goes for Adam’s solo tours as well, because more would be very hard on the vocal chords.

The Queen shows start with some fast and upbeat songs. They aren’t only there to get the audience going, but also to warm up Adam’s voice. Of course, he and the rest of the band do a vocal warm-up. But Adam has said, that it’s not that extensive, because the first songs are also more warm-up songs. I found it simply astounding: This guy sings WWRY, Hammer to fall, Stone Cold Crazy and so on and says, they are easier for the voice to sing. :-D

Just that shows, what an extraordinary singer he is. These songs sound great, and i know, many singers struggle to perform them in a convincing way, when they just try to sing one. It also shows, how much self-confidence Adam has. Some might call it arrogance. I don’t think, he would have been able to do, what he does without it. You must be brave with a ton of self-confidence to step into Freddie’s role on stage.

As a singer, who ends the main show by singing Who wants to live forever, The Show must go on and BoRhap sometimes even non-stop (with the easier on the voice Radio GaGa thrown in), he has every right to be as confident as he is. He is a monster of a singer.

I know a lot of singers personally. I don’t know or have seen anyone with his abilities. He is not only insanely talented. Adam must have been working to develop his singing techniques for almost his whole life. That was really hard work. Some fans, who try to put Adam down, because he doesn’t play an instrument, seem to have no idea, how much more is behind Adam’s singing ability. Because: We all can sing. To some extend at least. So being a singer is easy, right?

Adam Lambert is someone , to whom a lot of singers and people of musical knowledge are looking up to in absolute aw. Kenny Ortega was shocked, when he heard Adam’s singing ability. He worked with him on „The Rocky Horror Picture show“ and mentioned, he had never heard a talented voice like this. Every take of the song had been a new experience. For your info: That man worked with Michael Jackson and many other big stars. And Adam only had a minor role, no need „to big him up“. And Ortega wasn’t the first one to say things like this.

I know, that doesn’t help Queen fans, who just don’t like Adam or his voice interpreting Queen songs.
So far, nobody has yet been able to bottle that voice and create songs, that showcase it in a great way -other than the Queen catalogue. Or at least some songs of it.

I don’t know, if it will ever happen, but IF Adam ever gets the right songs for his solo career, he might become a huge star. Somehow Brian and Roger can be happy, that it didn’t happen so far...

Same old story that you think and spread about me and have never provided any proof at all...that I've chased everyonee away. Same old story about poor sweetcaroline/CNB who can never do no wrong. And who turns ugly as can be when you get called out on your crap. Too bad for you, I suppose. You can't handle any truth whatsoever.
I take it you want and need anadamfan and everyone else here to believe your crap with no proof. For once and for all provide proof that I chased so many people away, if you can't shut up about it.
You don't get to say who will be blown away by Q+AL.Like I thought, that was why you bribed me about tickets on QOL. If I took you up on it, you would have wanted me to be blown away by it. There you have it, your pity me party you like to protray for yourself, and your blame game for all to see. What you do is disgusting, shameful really. You treat Queen boards to spam, promote AL and to spread your lies. Don't ever come back at me especially after what you said about my parents and I and what you assumed about Freddie having sex with every gay man on the planet. You are way out of line, whether you realise it or not. You crossed it too many times. It's startling after everything you have done and posted, you can't accept what you have said in your own posts. You have a vende against Queen fans because you think Queen fans don't accept AL because he is gay. You said that in one of your last posts on QOL before you were banned. You wanted to play the poor AL and homophobia card once again. Well, your game is over until next May. That's your own fault, not mine.
For you to continue sink low as you do, its shocking after all this time. You are not one of the best AL fans like you claim you are. You are not the last Glambert to stick it out on QOL that you claimed to be. The fact you think you are, well you are deluded to say the least. No joke, sweetcaroline, I worry about your mental and physical well being. No rational person would behave the way you did and still do. You are so defensive about a guy who doesn't know you at all, and vice versa, what exactly are you hoping to get concerning the guy? Payment, free tickets, some sort of recongition from him? You will never get that by the way you go about things. You are only fooling yourself and lying to yourself now and trying to lie on QZ to other QZ members once again. Why? What is your mindset?

It also shows, how much self-confidence Adam has. Some might call it arrogance. I don’t think, he would have been able to do, what he does without it. You must be brave with a ton of self-confidence to step into Freddie’s role on stage.

As a singer, who ends the main show by singing Who wants to live forever, The Show must go on and BoRhap sometimes even non-stop (with the easier on the voice Radio GaGa thrown in), he has every right to be as confident as he is. He is a monster of a singer.

I know a lot of singers personally. I don’t know or have seen anyone with his abilities. He is not only insanely talented. Adam must have been working to develop his singing techniques for almost his whole life. That was really hard work. Some fans, who try to put Adam down, because he doesn’t play an instrument, seem to have no idea, how much more is behind Adam’s singing ability. Because: We all can sing. To some extend at least. So being a singer is easy, right?

Adam Lambert is someone , to whom a lot of singers and people of musical knowledge are looking up to in absolute aw. Kenny Ortega was shocked, when he heard Adam’s singing ability. He worked with him on „The Rocky Horror Picture show“ and mentioned, he had never heard a talented voice like this. Every take of the song had been a new experience. For your info: That man worked with Michael Jackson and many other big stars. And Adam only had a minor role, no need „to big him up“. And Ortega wasn’t the first one to say things like this.

I know, that doesn’t help Queen fans, who just don’t like Adam or his voice interpreting Queen songs.
So far, nobody has yet been able to bottle that voice and create songs, that showcase it in a great way -other than the Queen catalogue. Or at least some songs of it.

I don’t know, if it will ever happen, but IF Adam ever gets the right songs for his solo career, he might become a huge star. Somehow Brian and Roger can be happy, that it didn’t happen so far...

You didn't ask anyone to stay on topic. How is "I ask everyone to stay on topic!" a question. Sorry dear, you aren't the modertator or admin here. You clearly want thngs done your way. Hmm.

Anadamfan: agree let’s just get back on topic. Since you are an Adam fan and a music fan, i was just wondering what are your favorite Adam solo songs and which songs from the Queen catalogue do you think Adam is best at interpreting?

I would love to hear your picks as well Rockchic. Thank you btw for showing me how to quote on this forum :)

Iron Butterfly, as much as I disagree with you, I am extremely sorry to hear about your ailing parents. I hope they get better soon. My most sincere wishes and regards to your parents. Setting aside our disagreements here, I do admire your devotion and piety to your parents. Take care.

anadamfan, it’s impossible and disgusting! She/they don’t want to chat intelligently about anything. They want to chase Adam fans away from here like they did on QOL. There used to be quite a few of us there at one time. But as soon as we praised Adam we were considered enemies.

They don’t go to the QAL shows but they know everything about them! If they went, they would be blown away but then they wouldn’t have anything to bitch about.

The only way to deal with icy is to ignore her and not respond because otherwise she goes on and on and on to infinity!

I'm not sure what you are referring to, and I know some of the people you are talking about actually enjoy Adam, but not in the extremist approach you choose, but I think everything I've seen from his performances visually is boring or disgusting.

I think Adam makes a great pop record, not something I like, but I think it's great for those who love bubblegum teenybopper pop... but I also think his dance moves are a train wreck. I'm judging this on things his fans post...

... but I think live, he's a fucking mess compared to Freddie. And sometimes a mess is great, I love Brian Wilson, and he can't sing like he used to, he sits at his piano and waves his hands around... but it's still satisfying. Adam isn't. Adam is forgetful.

Mister Cosmicc, which LIVE QAL and/or Adam solo shows have you attended in the past 9 years since he became known?
