I agree that the song is stellar, but not so sure how the 70's vibe is received by the general public when even some fans aren't fully on board. Within my family the song is much applauded however the 70's fashion was less convincing for them. Of course Adam is going to do it his way. But the 70s vibe in music is great but not sure it needs to be extended to the fashion in performances as well as in the videos. Almost makes it seem old. But Adam likes to take things all the way so not surprised he is going all out with the concept. And I agree the headline about non Queen recording does sound harsh. And right before all of these big tours. I thought it was just me who did not like all these headlines about it. And it is probably not the way he meant it to sound.

Not quite sure how I should feel about the headlines that Adam is not intending to record with Queen. Mixed feelings, I think. On one hand it is probably a smart move on Adam's side as the comparisons would never stop, but on the other hand the thought of a recording together could have been exciting Ah well... The headlines come across as harsh almost. I am wonder why Adam decided to not leave the discussion open. I was going to write about it as well.. I actualy feel the headlines are miss leadind. He didn't say "I will NOT recored with B+R" he said he "wont recored with them as Queen, becuase Queen for him is Freddie" that doesnt sound like the same as I wont recored with them at all. I don't know maybe I'm reading in to it too much 😊 Wishful thinking. And maybe he just wanted these questions to stop!!

Lots of changes for sure, but I am not judging and only observing. Unfortunately, headlines do get sensationalized and words get twisted and over-interpreted ugghh. I somehow wish that Adam would have kept the discussion open.

But I have a feeling that Adam is rather focused on his solo career now, so not sure if a recording with Brian and/or Roger may happen. At least not for now. I just think that the timing of that headline is a bit weird, and of course it was worded to grab the most attention ugghh

Not sure why some would doubt the 70 Work today Fashion wise...actually love it and Harry Styles was very succesful with a Rock Album and his suits. I still deeply Love that Album and it must have been Britney at 9 when i last listened to an Album front to back, beginning to end because i Love it as a whole so much. Ironically i think 'sign of the times' might be the weekest Song on there and it was chosen as the single.

They're twisting what he said, it's pure clickbait and I personally take no notice, another game of telephone situation as Adam refers to them. I don't think they'll record together anytime soon but I suspect they will do something at some point.

I wonder more how Brian and Roger feel when Adam says that Queen is Freddie when they are touring as Queen.

Adam is honest. They are touring as Queen + Adam Lambert, performing songs made famous by Queen while Freddie was alive and the lead singer. It’s a beautiful thing! But new songs/music wouldn’t be Queen, according to how many, including Adam, would see it. He answered the question with his usual and sincere love and respect - and honesty.
Adam, Roger, and Brian have been working together long enough now, I think, to understand each other and know what they do and don’t plan to do, as well as who each other are and aren’t. I don’t think Adam’s answer impacts how they feel about him one iota. (They know Adam’s not a “shit”!😀).
Adam’s comment about the likely new audience members that they will play for due to BR’s success was interesting to me. I think Queen + Adam Lambert’s focus this tour is again celebrating Queen’s songs and - amazingly - STILL introducing and welcoming new fans.
Nothing Adam said precludes the possibility of Brian and/or Roger contributing to something new with Adam sometime, but that wouldn’t be Queen. (I don’t think it’s super likely though because Queen + Adam Lambert, what they are already doing, is a LOT.)

I think we all know what Adam meant when he said Freddie was Queen. Why does everyone see a negative there. Queen was the four of them Freddie, Brian, Roger and John. The music they created together is what Queen fans want to hear. A good example is the album they made with Paul Rogers, it went nowhere.
