Frank Ocean is the male Taylor Swift when it comes to live vocals...and this is coming from a fan of both. #Grammys

Based upon that performance, I am not getting the Frank Ocean love. The album is beautiful -- nothing like that performance. I have seen him perform live twice on these shows and both times it left me confused. Mumford and Sons, YAY Would have been happy for Black Keys also! |

Guess I'm not an FO fan and wgwg fan. I need performers who have had a few red bulls. Adam, Prince, Mumford and Sons fit the bill. |

Okay, Adam usually covers songs of significance to him. Stay makes me think something is up...

No, I'm on MacBrook Pro (only four months old) and using Firefox. So far today it has been staying in Visual pretty consistently. *knock wood* BTW, Queenzone (another fan site) has a poll and *ahem* more than 1000 rate Adam and Queen as a "terrible" idea. www.queenzone.com >:D yup, I get mixed up with those two as well.... re Queenzone poll: I think many of us got schooled on the surprising fact that preponderance of active (posting on sites) Queen fans are fans of FM only (no FM = no Queen etc..etc..etc) They are still waiting for his resurrection and in the evident absence of such they are waiting for a release of Freddie's recordings from Queen archives. John Deacon is the saint, Br&R are the Satan allowing themselves to live their creative lives past FM's tragic passing. Anyone daring to sing Queen songs is an evil trespasser (sorry, had to use the word) to be exterminated without consideration. In short - I would not be surprised if close to 100% of queenzone posters would vote against QAL collab, or any other collaboration for that matter. In their eyes - these projects are a distraction for Br&R from working on the release of FM recordings... Talon - please correct me if my impression is off... Hmm Maybe not QUITE as vehement but not too far off. It's mostly: Fans of Queen 1973-1995. As in without any member of Queen it's not Queen. They are hoping beyond hope for more releases of 70s gigs and archive recordings. John is the respectable one for seeming to agree with them by retiring (despite the few years he did soldier on a bit) B&R are not Satan but are whoring themselves out a bit letting any tom dick and harry sing with them which sullies the legacy (in their eyes). Generally if Brian and Roger were to go on as Brian May/Roger Taylor/Adam Lambert or have some other new band name most would say live and let live but using the name Queen gets them up in arms. And as for collaborations. Again if it's using the Queen name it's probably not going to be popular but if it is than it should be using someone who either a. was a contemporary and thus has had as long a legacy as they have or b. someone with major street cred. I somehow doubt that if Queen + Matt Bellamy were announced there would be as much of a to do fairly or unfairly. American Idol and the like are evil and the work of Satan so anyone associated with that show are evil as well. I am not a typical Queen fan I admit...I don't care who Brian and Roger play with...I just love the music and like seeing it performed. The only thing that "irritates" me for lack of a better word is that they could release more archive recordings and 70s gigs and for god's sake make some new music! They've really only written a handful of songs in this decade! At least Roger is due to release a solo album this year (I hope...) |

Let's see Adam's covered in concert: WLL, 20th Century Boy, Purple Haze, Enter Sandman, Is This Love, and Are You Goin' My Way. Since he tweeted Stay...maybe he just likes the song. Didn't he tweet her song Like A Diamond or something when he was exercising? Maybe he'd like to work with her.  |
