I know for a fact that John Deacon would not like Adam doing Freddie's job because he hated Robbie Williams doing that.
To me John was the only guy who got out at the correct time before the embarrassment set in with Lambert. Good on John !

But John would be pleased about how AL has played a part in increasing Queen's popularity.

Robbie was a one-off appearance - just one song and video, no concerts. It hardly made a difference to Queen's fanbase.

the difference with Adam is that he is a great singer whether you like it or not - he has got a wide vocal range which he rarely fails to deliver in concert. He is one to watch live, he's entertaining to watch.

I have seen or heard enough of this twat to hate him for raping my favourite songs. He is an aweful oversinging screecher, like nails on a wall for me and his stage presence is as exciting as watching paint dry. Hitting high notes does not make you a good singer. Worst of all is that he is changing the meaning of songs like STL and makes fun out of them. Sad goof

Compare Queen's album sales now compared to ten years ago. The more and more years into Queen's collaboration with AL there have been more sales of Queen's back catalogue. I'm sure he'd be pleased that there is more people buying his albums he'd helped produce for 26 years.

I think all fans should appreciate that the movie and AL has helped Queen become the most popular classic band in the world at the moment despite personal opinions. If I didn't like Q+AL I'd still be thankful that it's here because it's certainly helped turning strangers into Queen fans.

Yep, I can just imagine the Glamberts buying Queen II because they think BoRap is on it and hearing the first notes of Ogre Battle ...

I think are many Glamberts who don't bother to look deeper in the back catalogue. Shame, because the catalogue is full of gems.

Ain't that the truth. Most of my favorite Queen songs are album tracks(MOTBQ/Brighton Rock/Lily of the Valley) or singles that didn't go far(Play the Game) or end up on a Greatest hits album(Spread Your Wings/It's Late).

In all honesty, my favorite song, by anyone, is Bohemian Rhapsody. It's a heck of a song in many ways, in my opinion.
It's galls me that people come to Queen boards just to promote AL and ignore Freddie and Queen. There is so much more to Freddie and Queen if one bothered to look deeper, like never before the music and information is out there. Those songs you mention here are overlooked by many. But how many Glamberts even know about them?

But for what price? The movie was an insult to Freddie and QAL is just a nightmare and make them a laughing stock

I think you should re-look Queen’s 00’s sales figures. They sold a lot of music back then, too. They were on the charts then, and previously in the 90’s as well.

The movie, not Adam, have made sales soar even higher. Adam can’t even make a hit song... do you really think Adam Worshippers is going to help with Queen’s sales, when Adam’s new music flopped?

Get real.

That’s the problem with Adam Worshippers... they think Queen were forgotten before Adam came along, and that’s so far from the truth. The truth is that they just didn’t focus or listen to Queen before Adam became associated with Queen.

Queen are a sales machine... their music never stops selling.

Queen made Al so do not forget that.
The awful film Bo Rhap boosted Queens sales of albums but also streaming is here now which was not around years ago and that has helped too.
Lambert's solo career is just a part time hobby and he does not take it seriously as the music has no direction and it is truly awful.
Queen is his only chance to get noticed and that is why he wont let go.

ST17

Rubbish, Adam takes his solo career very serious, saying it's a part time hobby is ridiculous and he's noticed plenty with and without Queen, you do spout some nonsense at times.

Tell you how much he's noticed - if SC had posted all the birthday messages from news outlets, radio stations, arena's all over the world etc she'd still be posting and the thread would be pages and pages long lol.

I think the biopic ended up getting Queen new fans more than Q+AL, at least from what I've seen.
I don't think the biopic was popular because of Q+AL either.

SweetCaroline would post about his birthday and not Freddie's...irony anyone.

And his latest releases flopped... like the previously releases. Do not blame the digital age, Adam has 200 people ahead of him on the Billboard 200 who have actually sold music.

Don't say, "Oh, he's indie!" because that only works for those who start indie. Adam has had more promotion on his shit than most. All his fans saw. People just got tired of his generic bullshit.

Adam Worshippers didn't contribute to much Queen sales... Adam can't even create a hit himself. Anything Queen does, it's a hit =) Adam's auxiliary in Queen terms!

You think those who love Adam more than Queen, who fail to buy Adam’s music, somehow increase Queen’s sales? You’re a special kind of stupid!
