Neil Mc Cormick from ,The Telegraph, really goes out on the ledge when he uses the age thing with Brian and Roger. The great band members that are still making music,delighting fans of all ages are in their sixties or more.. For example Kiss,Paul McCartney,Aerosmith,The Rolling Stones,etc. Would Mr. Mc Cormick put the best of all the rock bands out to pasture because of their age.. How about talent,great music, and being relevant in today's world filled with throw away music . There is no doubt about it, this man has his head up his non-musical arse. I also think McCormick is no spring chicken himself! :dunno: Maybe he's jealous! |

Never made it back to bed but I want to take a moment to write what I've been thinking for the past few days but have been too busy numbing my ears with the videos to put down. I've always been a fan of Queen--but I am obsessed with Adam. I hang on his every note, facial expression, body movement. Adam has memorized even Queen fans with his powerful renditions, so (as you all know) it's even more F-ing mind blowing for super-fans like me. But, one surprisingly huge thing I have taken from these concerts is the power of the music itself. Even as focused as I am on vocals, I find myself unable to ignore, and am equally as moved by, the expressiveness of the instrumentation. WWTLF--it couldn't be sung better--but just listen to how Brian picks up where Adam leaves off and is equally as emotion-grabbing. Their songs are so varied, not just from each other but also within themselves. I knew Queen was "rock royalty" but I now truly have FELT the superiority of their music. These men, together, wrote complex masterpieces. It angers me to read reviews by people who must be too focused on what they think should be popular to feel this music. Do they not feel when they hear "Love of my Life"? Are they too busy checking their text messages to notice the solos? Are they able to NOT smile during "Underpressure"? At any age, these men kick the ass of anything made today! Maybe this is the problem with today's music world: people are too focused on what's next to even take in what is now. Part of why Adam is so powerful singing Queen is because he "gets" the music. Adam shines in these concerts. But for once, finally, I think he has met his equals. How awesome it must feel for him to be surrounded by his level of mastery. I am honored to witness them all. This was a great post. I have a confession to make. I was never a fan of Queen. I was only a kid during their brief heyday in the US, and unfamiliar with any of their work beyond the big stadium hits. Young teens in Austin Texas in the late '70s were still savvy enough to know the double entendre of the word QUEEN and to witness the "machismo" that was Freddie Mercury (serious LOLs), and no one who knew what was good for them would commit social suicide by liking Queen. I hadn't given Queen a thought in 30 years until last fall when we started hearing about the EMAs. "Queen?" I scratched my head. "Weren't they one step above KISS?" HOW WRONG I WAS. One of the most amazing thing about what has happened with Adam and Queen has been, for me, the discovery of this amazing music and showmanship and the RE-discovery of the spirit of rock and roll. I can honestly say that it has been many, many years since I felt the liberation and spirituality of a full on rock concert. I had forgotten everything about what it was like. Then I watched Kiev, and soon remembered. I also realize now that I kind of took great music for granted when I was a kid. We were surrounded by so much of it that bands like Chic and Queen could be dissed and dismissed by the critics (they still are). It was like the extermination of the buffalo -- we had so much great music that we didn't even know what we were seeing and hearing. Now that the buffalo is a rare sight upon the land, it feels special, amazing, a treasure. Adam has totally felt his power for the first time in these shows. This is so much more than a stint with an oldies band. Everyone who witnessed the greatness sees, and knows, and so does Adam now. It may still take a while in the US but still -- the world has shifted on its axis, even if it doesn't know it yet. |
