The legendary rock band Queen has offered a rejuvenated version of its repertoire tonight at the Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona (northeast) in the only concert of their European tour in Spain, where the public has hailed the young and powerful voice Adam Lambert, substitute Freddie Mercury.
Although the voices are noticeably different, Queen still sounds like Queen, not in vain continue on stage two of its founding members Brian May and Roger Taylor, who have maintained the commitment to continue with the band in the post-Mercury was not always successfully, as when they hired Paul Rogers exBad Company.
Lambert, emerged from the contest "American Idol," the US equivalent of "American Idol" has appeared on Sant Jordi as a version 3.0 of Mercury with a neat look neorromántico and know-how on stage, as so well knew how to do the ill-fated singer of Queen.
The British group has landed in Barcelona after the first concert of the European tour last Friday 19 at Rock & River in Lisbon.
It was not the first time they played in Barcelona, because today the evening was preceded five concerts: 1974, 1979, 1986, 2005 and 2008, the latter two already without Mercury.
The concert started about 21.30 hours in Palau Sant Jordi almost full and with a different song that opened proceedings last year in America.
Instead of "One vision", the curtain opened with "The Hero", a song from the soundtrack of the movie "Flash Gordon", which have continued strong tracks of pure rock as "Hammer to Fall" "Seven Seas of Rhye", "Stone Cold Crazy" which has combined with quieter songs like "Play the Game", first time playing on this tour since November 1982; a 'Killer Queen "with great Lambert of black drag queen on a throne.
Lambert has won the audience with classical greetings to Barcelona, but even more so when proclaimed his love for Freddie Mercury and has made clear that the respectable "Freddie Mercury only be one" just before singing the first two greatest hits night, "I Want to Break Free" and "Somebody to Love".
Bryan May, which has become a collective autofoto with the public, has played with the help of the choir delivered "Love of My Life", and then the emotional moment when the screen background theme Mercury has finished.
Other images of Mercury have been backdrop of the song "These Are the Days of Our Lives" now sung by another veteran of the group, Roger Taylor.
In concert Ecuador has seen the rarity of a battle of two batteries, whose precedent in the recent history of rock would have to look at those duels that Phil Collins and Chester Thompson starred with Genesis.
"Under Pressure", now dominated by the image of the late David Bowie, has given way to elvisiano rock and roll "Crazy Little Thing Called Love".
In the second part of the evening have been falling one by one those hymns that the 'Queen' left while he was alive Freddie Mercury, songs like "Do not Stop Me Now", "Another One Bites the Dust", "I Want It All "," Who Wants to Live Forever "," the Show Must Go on "," Bohemian Rhapsody "and already in the encores" Radio Ga Ga "," We Will Rock You "and" We Are the Champions ".
