I really just love, LOVE “Roses.”
I love how right away it gets your head bobbing and shoulders moving - and that never stops; I love how Adam asks in deeper voice- after the higher, almost whispery opening - “Are you feeling it like I am?” I love something about the very end of the chorus of “oh’s.” The fifth “oh” is so plaintive, like a sob or a sigh, and for some reason it connects to the sound of “New Eyes,” for me. And I love the vulnerability of the lyrics. (Sometimes I find a phrase or even a single word will momentarily interrupts my enjoyment of the “flow” of some of his songs. But not in “Roses” - it all flows for me.)

Robbie Williams has opened up about the fact that he could have replaced Freddie Mercury as Queen's frontman in the early 2000s, but turned it down. Queen's Brian May and Roger Taylor have toured over the last decade with American singer Adam Lambert as frontman, with Free's Paul Rodgers also having a stint in the mid-2000s. However, Robbie has revealed that May and Taylor wanted to tour with him after impressing them with a one-off collaboration in 2001. Robbie teamed up with Queen for a new version of 'We Are the Champions' for the movie A Knight's Tale starring Heath Ledger. The Take That star said his “low self-esteem” prevented him from following on from Freddie Mercury as the band's lead singer. “Even though I’m very confident here on the microphone, I have very low self-esteem," he told SiriusXM. “And I just thought I’d save them the audacity of me even trying to step on a stage and be the same echelon as Freddie Mercury. He, to me, is angelic. He’s godlike. It was just too scary.” He added: “I was doing stadiums myself at the time. I didn’t want to have to split it three ways, but that’s another story.” Robbie also praised Adam Lambert's “incredible” voice. “Adam Lambert – if he wasn’t such a lovely person, which he is – I would just be terrified of him because of his pure talent. His voice is absolutely incredible,” he said. Watch the exact moment Queen wanted to recruit Adam Lambert www.smoothradio.com/artists/queen/adam-lambert-audition-american-idol-video/“And he’s an incredible performer, and a lovely person to boot. I’m really pleased when I meet people that I’m just overawed by their talent – he gives me a talent hard-on – and they’re nice.” "It’s much better than meeting people that give you a talent hard-on and they’re arseholes. You’re just like, ‘Oh, I hate everything you’ve done now." Queen and Adam Lambert recently performed the band's iconic Live Aid set at a fundraising gig for Australia's bushfire crisis.

I wonder if the virus will affect any other concerts, or the tour as a whole?
I don't really think it's paranoia...people are dying. Each country is deciding how they're handling their response.

It is paranoia because the event is still some time away. People in the high risk population die from flu and other viruses every year so are we now going to pack things up and put lives on hold every flu season? We don’t even know if this virus will still be a think three months from now. How about the lives that will be ruined due these overzealous reactions? People will start losing their jobs soon.
