Here is my QUEEN+AL setlist guess. They will get 45 minutes of performance time. They will do highlights from the London show. They will not perform with Adam not Adam and a lot of other people.They will perform all 8 songs that charted in the US that were performed in London. Flash (Intro) Don’t Stop Me Now Under Pressure (Roger/Adam duet)^^ Somebody to Love # I Want to Break Free ^^^ Another One Bites the Dust* Radio Ga Ga ^ The Show Must Go On Crazy Little Thing Called Love* Bohemian Rhapsody (Freddie video/Adam)** Encore: We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions **** Chart placements in the US * US #1 song ** US #9 song, #2 song 1991 reissue *** US #3 song **** US #4 song # US #13 song ^ #16 song in US ^^^ #45 song in US Possible additions: Fat Bottomed Girls Queen was pretty much frozen off of US Top 40 radio after the release of the "I Wand to Break Free" video in 1984 and associated press -- and did not have a single chart in the Top 40 from mid-1984 except for the reissue of Bohemian Rhapsody in 1991 -- and it charted on sales points. [Americans did not know anything about Coronation Street and the video led to a lot of press about Freddie being gay.] I point this out because for people under 30 in the US, they have very limited knowledge of Queen and their music. For many, all they know is Bohemian Rhapsody from Wayne World. *** I am a huge Queen fan and Freddie was one of my favs, but I would love it if they allowed Adam to sing Bohemian Rhapsody vs. using the video. I like your list.. but from Flash to Don't Stop Me Now (DSMN) kind of weird.. so I would still love Flash and then the medley of SSOR-KYSA-WWRY .. then go to DSMN. bold part ??? |

YES, PLEASE!!! Lets concentrate on Adam's music! I am quite sure no one out there cares about a performance on the AI finale by the the third place person or about any other performance on the AI finale for that matter. It is all old news and brings no association with Adam. (I know, i am repeating myself... ) |

Some of my fav Adam stuff is when he introduces the band and walks around singing scat (if that's the proper way to reference what he's doing at that point).
I've always thought of rock and roll as having less auto-tuned electronic sounds and more instrumentation. I feel like it appeals to everyone. Rock and Roll seems to be pretty generic and offers up broad appeal.
I doubt if he'll abandon pop altogether. He has a very strong K-pop fan base. Now that he has all of us tuning into top 40 I'm sure he'll have a few strong pop/rock choices.
He's not a music snob; he'll do what he enjoys singing and, hopefully, what can be adapted to live performances for his A3 tour.

I think myspenser's loop experiment proved that loops added a little more than an hourly manual vote so I was wondering if that old Trespassing loop was still around? I would love to help Trespassing get more views. Adam wanted it for a single and I think he really loves the song.

Yup. Clicking for Trespassing (but slipping in some Titanium just cause I love listening to it) |

Goodness. MJ's thread about Adam's rock and roll album has 445 posts after less than one day and with many deletes.
Yay Q3 for putting in positive Adam comments.
Can you imagine the explosion if he gets Idol?

Hmmm. I hope i dont get kicked out of the fandom...but I don't consider Adam a rock artist. He has a great anthemic rock voice (which suits a lot of classic power rock) but I don't really think his creative tendencies lean towards "rock". And my brain defines that as hard rock which I really feel needs more grit and growl and sawdust than Adams voice has naturally. I'm not explaining myself very well. Fortunately there are many other flavours of rock. I'm partial to alt rock/pop and whatever you call the stuff that artists like fallout boy or my chemical romance do (emo- theatrical rock???) I could see Adam adding that flavour of rock to his pop music, and I think he'd be stellar. :D I don't think we can box Adam into one genre, such as pop singer/artists or rock singer/artists. He grew up listening to a lot of music, Thanks to DadBert and that's why his knowledge of music's amazing. He can sing all kind of genre if he wants to (but rap & beatbox.. I think.. LOL.. he tried on the idol tour LOL). He loves pop music (see wiki on pop music), but his live performance always leaning towards rock. So I think Adam's a multi-genre artist that loves Rock & Roll. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pop_musicRock and roll (often written as rock & roll or rock 'n' roll) is a genre of popular music that originated and evolved in the United States during the late 1940s and early 1950s, primarily from a combination of African-American genres such as blues, jump blues, jazz, and gospel music,together with Western swing and country music. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_%26_rollNote: Someone needs to post this definition of Rock & Roll on the other site, a lot of people misunderstand Rock & Roll as rock music and rocker.. LOL. I think this is a good point - "Rock & Roll" is not generally the same thing as "Rock"! "Rock & Roll" is basically 50's & 60's music while "Rock" is more 70's & 80's. As a ballroom dance, a good majority of the music I think of as "Rock & Roll" is typically a swing, usually an East Coast Swing or Jitterbug. From Trespassing, Take Back is an East Coast Swing and fits what I consider as the above definition of "Rock & Roll". Crazy Little Thing Called Love would fit this definition of "Rock & Roll". |

It is all old news and brings no association with Adam. (I know, i am repeating myself... ) Since it is very likely that YouTube plays per internet address are only counted once per hour, I think we can push both Adam's solo music & the duet but with more emphasis on Adam's solo music. I would like to see more YouTube playlists to choose from. No need for the all Titanium playlist. How about a playlist that starts with the Trespassing lyric video, includes all of Adam's official videos, the Titanium video, LWOG, plus more favorite live performances, without any interviews. We could have more than one mix to include different live performances. Is there someone who has time to create a few of these? |
