Setting that aside, Adam is a very good vocal mimic. I think he is capable of sounding like Freddie singing - if he wants to do it. I would really like to have him sing -- do the soundtrack. He could never do this as part of QAL because Queen fans would not tolerate it, and because he balanced respect for the music with his own vocal style and strengths. But in a bio-pic, mimicing Freddie would be required. Why would it be necessary for anyone to mimic Freddie's singing? If - as I assume is the case - Rami Malek can't do the singing, won't they just use Freddie's voice?

Wasent their that media circulation while back. Adam playing possibly one of Freddie's lovers? That could happen. In other news see the GT MV is closing in on 80 million views. Is that Adams highest viewed MV ever? I think it is. How great would it be if it hit 100 mill views. It's possible. So close combined 80 mill, lyric video 9 mill. And Spotify over 150 mill. That's over 230 mill streams combined. In terms of streams GT is a monster dance hit. Like Wwfm was a monster Hac hit. Yeah I'm sure GT MV will make it to 100 million one day. It's doing about 250k views / week at the moment so it will take some time (about 80 days). These are great numbers. You also need to add the German MV for GT which is on close to 13 million views. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfaF0h8E69cThere is also a 2nd official lyric video with almost 1 million views. Total views for those lyric + MV official video's on YT is well over 103 million views already. Spotify is going to 151 million. That totals over 250 million already! Then we don't add other streaming services.

Gelly @14gelly 3h3 hours ago He looks so cute and gorgeous! 😍 This haircut having some length on the sides makes a world of difference, so much more flattering than those shaved fades. Please no new haircut before the show.

No doubt he is able to mimic Freddie quite faithfully.

Be interesting to secthem build on from GT. And hopefully he gets an even bigger hit next year . ETA: I'm prob the only poster on this forum who could care less if Adam went bald haha.

If they were to rerecord seems like Mark Martel would have be in consideration. No doubt he is able to mimic Freddie quite faithfully. If they have a scene where Freddie is in rehearsal, or working on a new composition, or singing in the shower or car, or any of a number of scenarios, they cannot use the studio version of the song. It won't fit.

It won't fit. True, they (Queen) do have tons of recorded samples that were not used in final production though. Seems like they recorded everything as they went along especially in later years. I just don't see a benefit in Adam voicing the Freddie singing parts. He has spent the last fiveish years gaining the credibility to front Queen by doing the exact opposite. Now, him singing some non Queen songs or new music for the sound track could be really cool OR maybe curating the whole sound track. Hmmmmmmm.

Did Freddie ever meet Elvis or see him in concert? I'm too lazy to look up the ages and timeline, lol. If Adam gets a small part would love for it to be something unexpected. I guess not. I found this below from here www.elvis-collectors.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=60327"ELVIS & FREDDIE MERCURY
Postby CONFEDERATELVIS » Sun Apr 17, 2011 4:47 pm HI According to the book Freddie Mercury by Peter Freestone - page 84 it says - quote:- Part of the American leg of that tour involved the bands use of a very special plane . The plane that was originally booked was found not to be airworthy, and so a substitute was rented at very short notice from a very special place. The Lisa Marie was furnished by the Elvis Presley Organisation and we used this delightful personalised jet for several weeks. It was the closest Freddie ever got to meeting Elvis. It would have been his dream come true. At a later date, Lisa Marie actually gave Freddie a scarf which had once belonged to her father. It was a treasured possession, one which certainly did not end up in Freddie's loft - - unquote...........THIS WAS DURING THE HOT SPACE US TOUR This will explain photos of the Lisa Marie at Geneva airport in the early 1980s?
