@ Snifflese...I know you posted about how you wished/wanted AL to sing oprea! Apparently he did sing an oprea esque (ish?) song at a private event in Italy tonight.
You probably already know this, but I just saw videos on Twitter...sorry if I'm late in letting you know. Gotta run a few errands again.

I was just reading and listening to the song. I love Adam's voice when he sings any kind of classical, as that to me is what he should be singing. A lot of people can sing pop and dance, but not many can sing classical. I always find it interesting that he can translate his voice to so many genres of music. Most people sound best in one or two kinds of music. Opera singers often sound funny singing pop music and country singers aren't credible singing jazz, etc, etc. But Adam can pull off almost everything I have heard him sing. That might, to me, be the most amazing thing about his voice. That is why he is such a good fit for Queen as they have so many styles of music in their catalog. I am curious what Brancelli might think of the Nessun Dorma snippet. it isn't Pavarotti, obviously, but for someone who never sings opera and had no musical backing, I really enjoyed it.

It's rather disgusting, the way some of you are practically climaxing over Adam Lambert.
Star search winner, Freddie wannabe, that's all he is, like somebody posted earlier, if not for Queen, Adam Lambert would be a big, fat nothing now.
It's a disgrace, really, the way Freddie's memory is being treated like this, keeping Freddie's memory alive, is what they claim, that's a load of bull, how can a no talent hack, singing Freddie's songs, who can't even get the song lyrics right, be a tribute to Freddie?
No, it's more like, Adam Lambert is trying to make a name for HIMSELF, not, paying tribute to Freddie.

Excuse me, but what does Freddie have to do with Adam singing Nessun Dorma? I don't believe Freddie sang it and we are not comparing, so why do you care? This is just something that is not Queen related in any way. Maybe you are climaxing over Freddie, but that is not my problem. Everything is not always about Freddie, you know? Talking about the voice or how one uses his voice is perfectly fine to talk about here.
I didn't say it had anything to do with it.
Since others had voiced their opinions on Adam vs Freddie ... I'm giving my opinion.
Yes, some of you act like Adam is the second coming....my personal observation.

You folks act like Freddie is the only singer in the world and actually there are threads to post about just Freddie on Queen Zone, so maybe you wouldn't be so frustrated there. Some of you seem to get really spun up here on the designated QAL portion of the forum (A stands for Adam in the QAL thread). We don't go into the Freddie threads, so I don't understand why folks come over here so much, since they clearly don't enjoy Adam or QAL. I also don't think most of us compare Freddie to Adam as this would be useless to do. Freddie is an icon and is who he is. Adam is just Adam and we are allowed to talk about him and his voice if we so choose.

Hmmm, I wish there was a better quality clip, but it was decent considering he's not an opera singer. He doesn't have much resonance in his lower register, but he is strong in the 4th octave and has great vibrato. I've heard the song hundreds of times by many singers, so it's unfair to compare him to the others. I wish he would have finished the song, cause there's a C5 at the end (which is the high note he hits in "Is Anybody Listening"), and I would've loved to hear how he would've interpreted it.
Hoping for better quality, but overall I did enjoy it. I do think it does sort of expose the weakness in his lower range, which is most evident in the second line. That said, I'm sure if he sang this song a few times he would kill it. His version thus far is different (it's classical but not exactly opera), But again, I liked it.
Opera singers generally have a very resonant voice and have great projection. They typically don't need to use microphones. Adam might lack the resonance with lower notes, but he can strongly project his voice in the 4th and 5th octaves.
I will leave you with an example of Nessun Dorma that is one of my favorites, although Pavarotti has an incredible rendition as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sE4EgIG0pew
btw, I will say, I am pleased to see Adam singing more songs like this. I'm not saying he'd be a great opera singer, but it does make me think he could still sing songs like "Come to Me, Bend to Me", when you hear his control, vibrato, breath support etc. I don't think he's lost any of that. I love how gentle he was in parts of Nessun Dorma that aren't typically gentle. It's unfortunate he wants to waste his talents as a pop singer, cause he truly would kill it on Broadway.
