Adam Lambert — Part 2

I agree Makka. Just no need for it.

I hope you will die soon SweetCaroline!

What did I ever do to you, Kilroy? Sorry to disappoint you but I am not suicidal. Are you?

Maybe, he/she, is homicidal and, you should take that comment, as a threat and, report it.

If he/she is another Freddie fan who can’t stand other people singing his music, what does he/she think about a guy dressing up and portraying him as closely as Rami does in this movie?

One thing is for certain...AL has been the best thing to happen for Queen in the States when it comes to concert attendance since Freddie died.

I believe many of the QPR shows were less than half full.

Overall...the best thing to happen for Queen's overall popularity worldwide since Freddie's death is undoubtedly the movie.

I will be the first to say this... sweetcaroline and I have many differences about how we feel about AL and Q+AL. Even so, I wouldn't not be posting about suicide and hoping she dies soon...that's pure evil coming from you. Leave her alone, or at least knock it off with your disgusting crap.

Don't forget 1992 and 1995. Queen had a resurgence in popularity then too. I'd actually put that above the biopic.i don't just mean money wise, but the music was out there, selling, being used in film, tv etc.
Let's see
Freddie Tribute and Wanye's World
Made In Heaven.
That managed to get Queen a whole new generation of fans. The biopic is what is doing it these days.

I think Queen music has always been with us. Just because I am a fan of Adam doesn’t mean I wasn’t aware of it before. Like his family, I was thrilled at that Idol finale when Kris and Adam and the rest of the contestants sang WATC with Brisn and Roger. It was an exciting surprise. Most iconic artists have one or maybe two songs that they are known for worldwide, but the Queen band has so many you can’t count them on two hands.

The best thing about the movie is definitely the music and they did a very good job of inserting each song in the appropriate scene. Despite its timeline flaws, the movie works because of the music.

And despite the criticism from the people who don’t think Adam is the right man to tour, the shows are loved and successful because of the music.

I recommend both — the movie and the live stage shows — not because of Rami or Adam — but because of the spectacular and magnificent music!

I’m reading that some people have seen the movie 6 times (I’ve seen it 3 times). So what is wrong with the people who call it trash and refuse to see it? Are they afraid they might like it after all?

@Icy

Yes...the mid90's was a comparable resurgence.

I guess what makes this movie resurgence so spectacular is how LONG it's now been since Freddie died.

True, it also proves to me how beloved Freddie band Queen truly are after all this time. The music never went away.

Without Freddie and Queen we wouldn’t have this:

Gaga is one of my fav songs and it gives me chills when I see the audience interaction with the band, whether it be Freddie or Adam. It was so cool to be in an audience of thousands and have everybody responding that way to the music. Are there any other songs, Queen or otherwise, where there is a certain response by the audience like the Gaga thing? Don't laugh as I really don't know Sweet Caroline being sung at the Red Sox game at the bottom of the 8th inning is comparable, but not really the same! Queen music just touches the inner fibre of your being like no other music.

One of their best collaborations — Love Kills:
