I wonder how the band perceives the audience reception for Two Fux from where they stand. I read some Queen fan reviews that said it didn't go over well with the audience, but they have kept that in.. Since some of you have said that It's Late and SYW got a good response from the audience, and yet the band perceived otherwise, it just made me wonder about TF... I felt like at my shows, 2Fux got probably the weakest reception. JMHO I imagine it'll stay in for Adam. I think it is extremely likely that Two Fux will be gone from the setlist by the time the European tour starts, unless it becomes a major hit. I personally feel a bit "oversaturated" by it as of now, and I would love another song of Adam's to get worked into the setlist, hopefully a new one or may be Lucy?

lol...I've always wondered...If you guys could show someone ONE single video (yes broad term and it's meant that way) what would it be? Someone says: "You keep talking about this Lambert-guy...show me ONE video of what the guy is about, so that I can get an impression of him" (do people get the gist?) Since you are asking... My cousin who is Bulgarian, married to an American and lives in Germany asked me something like this. So I made her a Google Presentation called "The Essential Adam Lambert". On the first page entitled "If you have time for just one song...", I put the WWTLF video from Isle Of Wight. The day after my Vancouver QAL concert, my parents, who were visiting us from Bulgaria and had no idea about my AFL addiction, asked me about how it was, and who the guy who sings in place of Freddie might be. So after 9 years I finally "came out" as a Glambert to them. This time I decided to start with the beginning of the Queen Rocks Big Ben concert, mainly because he looks very playful and cute in the opening DSMN. That worked well. . The reaction of my mother blew me away (and she really likes Freddie!) First thing she said was "Oh my God, he is gorgeous!" Then came "What a voice". And what totally surprised me was "and he can not only hit the high notes, his voice is so nice in the lower range!" We spent most of the afternoon going through more historical videos. When I showed her the AI audition, she did not recognize him It was an amazing day... I love this story! How wonderful for you to share something special like this with your parents, kryptoman68! A moment to remember for sure.

Agree, because it will be old by then. But "oversaturated?" By a song that got zero radio play? No TV promo. How so?

PLEASE...NOT Two Fux! ...It was one of my favorites of this tour...I so desperately want to see it live (along with a gazillion other songs)... I think if they were to drop it they would have done so by now...they didn't hesitate to drop IL and SYW...didn't Adam talk about it not being too much of a stretch from the set?...we'll have to wait and see

Same reason they no longer play Ghost Town!

A moment to remember for sure. I love how you introduced them to Adam and they loved it! Interesting that your mother didn't recognize Adam on Idol! We see him on a daily basis and we have evolved and grown with him. It's true that he's changed a lot since Idol, but I recognize him ANYWHERE!

Same reason they no longer play Ghost Town! I love TF, and I hope they don't drop it from the show. I think the audiences have responded just fine. Sure, they're not going to respond like they do to the Queen hits, but Two Fux is fun. Most of the lyrics are on the big screen so people can really get what it's about. I think the audience gets its message. Adam is working his ass off with Queen. Brian and Roger must like the song well enough to approve of him singing it on a regular basis. Hope they leave it in. Who knows? Europe and the UK may get a real kick out of it.

It's just me....I have listened to it too many times - pretty much non stop on Spotify and Yt haha, and on concert videos and in concert. But that's not a reflection of the general public, of course. Ignore it.

Difference being that Ghost Town never had a fix place in the setlist...it was a one-time thing...Two Fux got a regular spot in the setlist... ...my perception from the videos was, that the audience enjoyed it and laughed... ...whatever...bottomline is that they will present a show with something for everyone...even if I'm "complaining" right now...
