I know, some of you are interested in numbers. I just found a page with absolutely impressive numbers of Queen‘s whole catalogue. It’s an interesting read, with many numbers of sold albums, singles, live videos, compilations, streaming... etc. In the end, it says, that Queen is the second best group after the Beatles, topping even The Rolling Stones. Here is the link: chartmasters.org/2017/10/cspc-queen-popularity-analysis/

They also have several articles with info about streaming and impact and such. I've save the site and I think I will dig into it some when I have more time. Hoping I'll learn something that will help us for Adam's new era as well. I'll get back to you on that!

If i was on the crew i’d polish it with something sweet, but would make sure it doesn’t affect the sound. Hmm i’d like to see That face, when he licks the mic...

I just wanted to bring over Cassie's post toward the end of yesterday's thread because I found it really insightful and I wish Brain and Roger and, also Adam, could read her words. cassie 4 hours ago cassie said:
"I just read an article on the things people regret when they are on their deathbed. Not that Brian is in that situation right now, but, to see him and Roger performing in their biggest. most flashy productions ever, makes me think. They will be able to look back at this time and say that they took the risk, braved the likely criticism of fans and media, took the risk that audiences would not be interested in a couple of old guys, braved the fear that they might not be able to perform at the level they had in the past. They went for the gold one more time instead of puttering in the garden of their retirement homes, like Brian alluded to. And it has paid off astoundingly. They are selling out arenas around the world. They say they are playing better than ever. They sound as glorious as ever. They have witnessed the adoration of old fans and new generations of concert goers, and they are getting the most glowing reviews they have ever had, by a long shot. They will never experience the regret of playing it safe, not taking the risk to do what they love the most, bowing to the opinions of the naysayers, not risking the disapproval of others or the damaging of their reputations and legacy. Bravo, Brian and Roger. And thank you." adamrocks....thanks for bringing Cassie's post over. I LOVE IT! I had missed it. red panda....YW.. Glad you found Youve Got To Hide Your Love Away.

I think they have noticed an increase in traffic today! Newsstand @newsstand_UK #glamberts at the ready. Newsstand @newsstand_UK Of course, they already are... And honorable! I paid for an issue that ran out. They held my money in credit form, and when I ordered today...the credit was applied. 😇😅 And, the email response was within minutes. Just feeling in that kind of mood...a shout out to all who are posting or keeping the site active with logging in. So much to read, view and analyse or think about. So glad Atop is a place that can fulfill my moments in time when I need a diversion or a break from real life...transporting me to another life. ☀️✨💥🌈⚡️💫☄️

I also found the streaming numbers interesting and how it all changed through the years. From what I understood (found the link on QueenZone) some looong time fans with a lot of knowledge helped finding all these numbers from around the world. But it seems that’s not even complete, because there are no numbers (or only very unreliable and incomplete ones) from South America.

Matt Hirschfeld @matthirschfeld New drawing of Queen & Adam Lambert by artist Matt Hirschfeld @drbrianmay @adamlambert @officialrmt @queenwillrock @the_MPT #FreddieMercury #Queen This is fantastic!!! Hirschfeld is a LEGEND! I wonder if any other AI alum has been lucky enough to have their likeness penned by Hirschfeld. Adam is VERY luck!
