I liked the comment Taylor Hawkns made after singing Under Pressure with Roger last week. He said it was a hard song to sing and I have heard others say that the whole Queen catalogue is difficult vocally. So, from that standpoint alone, Adam should be commended for making what he has been doing with QAL look so effortless and easy. Instead, he is constantly criticized that he sounds like a goat and, oh my, on one tour he mixed up the verses of BoRhap 3 nights in a row.
In 2012 I saw Queen Extravaganza with 6 singers performing the various songs. I sat in the audience panicking about how in the world was Adam going to perform ALL of those song later that month in Kiev, Ukraine, He says now that he was nervous at that event but he sure didn’t look like it in front of those 250,000 people in the town square.

You don't have to be so defensive about everything to do with AL, you know that right?
You have made comments about certain other artists and their fans, but you act so outraged when I point AL messed up three nights in a row. Remeber the crap you posted on QOL that Sam Smith's fans must be miserable and depressed to enjoy his music? But I get it, you said all that and much more, just because you were insulted by what some said about Lambert.
Actually, AL did look nervous at that particular concert, IIRC he said he was nervous...who wouldn't be? But you want and need to pretend no matter what, he's perfect for some strange reason. You even slammed Freddie to try to make AL look better. That's your 'contest'.
I'm not really sure why you (Caroline) are so negative towards Icy. She's not being unfair or unreasonable towards Adam, and at least gives the guy a chance, unlike the true haters. Can't you just agree to disagree? I've never seen anything she's posted to be unreasonable, but it's as if you take offense personally if she post something she doesn't like in terms of Adam. Please don't respond why, cause this thread will just end up with 60 pages of the same old back and forth shit.
Edit: Sorry snifflese for including you as this is mainly for Caroline. You seem to be more receptive.
Brancelli, thanks but I recently decided to not read or respond to anymore of icy’s posts for that very reason that she will generate those 60 pages herself. It’s been happening for years because I am not allowed to express MY views without getting the negative 5,000 word dissertations and accusations from her. She responds to every single word that I post no matter what it is. “Why did I mention Freddie last instead of first” and on and on and on! She hounds me and stalks me like it is her vocation and mission in life. Reasonable about Adam? Wow, she likes when he sang “Save Me!” That’s it! One song! Yikes!

When you tell other people what you think I have done, just make sure you tell them what you have done as well. Even here, you twist things because you want Brancelli to be on your side.
Icy, why do you keep bringing up the three nights Adam got the lyrics messed up? Nobody is outraged, but you. It seems such a petty thing to have written hundreds of times on here (including all the other issues which result in a book on your part). Brancelli can have his own opinion, but you definitely keep it going by repeating the same tired things that we all know verbatim by now. You have a way of getting in a dig (like the AL is so great, sarcasm thing yesterday) and then throwing stuff at Caroline. You just seem to want to get under her skin and you nit pick at every post. I don't think it is fair to blame her for all of it, as you sure keep it going. You have a comment about every post she makes. Doesn't matter what she says or what links she posts, you are on her immediately, even something as innocuous as a world time clock for an event! I am not sure that constitutes someone who is being fair and balanced. I bet if you stopped that, there would be no more issues here. You say all she posts is Adam stuff, but that is not entirely fair. She says lots of great things about QAL and Freddie and the original Queen. Bottom line, things can be posted and linked about Adam, as he is the A part in QAL. As they say on Adamtopia, scroll is your friend. I read less than 30% of the things there. I honestly don't see you chiming in with anything enlightening here either, another issue you have with Caroline. Your posts are always diatribes against Caroline for the most part. She doesn't want to talk to you at all, so if you ignore her, things would be great!

Someone recently asked if he messed up. I answered, simple as that. If I didn't know better, I'd think that at least one person here would like to seem he never messed up at all.
If no one was outraged, then why does someone bring up Adele messing up? She admitted she does that because of what some say about AL, so yes it seems like there is some outrage and quite a bit of pettiness.
Once again, you and see have repeated many times what you both have said about me. Just saying, it's not only me who repeats things.
Yes, Brancelli can make up and uses some thinking for oneself. It seems it's pretty neutral, no matter how sweetcaroline wants Brancelli to take her side and believe what she has to say.
Erm what has sweetcaroline said that was so great about Freddie and Queen? Do tell, because fact is she has very little if anything to say about it. The album Innuendo is now 28 years old and she stated a thread about it, with just a link...and she can't give a thought of her own about such an important Queen album. Which is a shame, because that album is one of Queen's best for many reasons.
Sweet surely will have some to say to me and about me again, she obviously still reads my posts. But she doesn't need you to be her spokesperson does she?
You and I get along right now and that's good. But you have added plenty of fuel in the past.
Maybe you could both just forgive and forget. I do so want to get long with you. There is no reason not to as we are all entitled to have our own views, but it would be so nice if the Caroline/Icy thing could just disappear. You could both kind of avoid each other and let a little time go by and then who knows? That would be really great. I honestly doubt she is going to say anything enlightening about Queen and Freddie, as like me, we don't know enough to have opinions about specific details of their lives or the musical catalog. I know she has always said that Freddie is amazing and there will never be another like him. That is just the way I feel about him. I am so thankful that he left all is wonderful music for everyone to enjoy. I would think that would be enough to satisfy anyone. Freddie is greatly loved and appreciated, by me, by Caroline, by you and millions of others. But there is not a whole lot to talk about in that regard, since we are not Queen experts. I really started following QAL because of Idol when he caught my eye and I believe it was the same for her. I know a lot more about that than Queen's past. I know I have always listened and loved their music and I would think that suffices to be a Queen fan. There are many things I love, but I can do without knowing all the trivia. I would hope that would be enough since this is not a straight up Queen thread. No way would I ever post anywhere else on this forum. Just because this isn't moderated doesn't mean it has to devolve in WWE!! And I am done adding fuel to the fire, not much gets accomplished that way apparently!! So, if we can get along, then I imagine you and Caroline could at least avoid one another for a bit? Maybe???

Sweetcaroline has made it clear she feels she has nothing to be sorry for and she thinks she has never done anything wrong. Even if she would she could take back what she said about my mental health, I would forgive her for that. But she hasn't in fact she digs her heels in more.
I'm not innocent, snifflese, but in no way am I completely to blame for it all either. I've been harsh, hands up, I admit to that.
We all know Freddie was amazing and will never be anyone else like him. That's something we all can agree on. You and sweetcaroline don't know much about Freddie or Queen, but this how I see sweetcaroline. She expects every Queen fan to accept AL in every thing he does. At least for you, you accept he isn't for everyone. I'm no Glambert by any means, but like I said yesterday, nor do I hate the guy.
Maybe sweetcaroline will reply to your post here and give her thoughts.
That sounds fair to me.
