That's the hardest decision about the film. I think in the end Freddie's voice is so unique that you'd HAVE to use his voice. I far prefer to get the acting right than get an actor who can sing - so that only strengthens my thoughts on using Freddie's vocals. Hell, maybe they'll use an alternate take or two 
I agree with you talon! 2 things about this, 1) Public didn't really know Freddie off the stage so I think to get the acting right by an actor who doesn't necessarily sings is find. This will bring to the 2nd most important one, his voice so special and it is a Freddie biopic movie, I would think using someone else's singing voice will be so weird. I hope Brian & Roger will want to use Freddie's singing vocal in the movie.
btw: what's QFT?
ETA: There's one song that Freddie wrote 20 minutes before the band gone on stage.. I forgot what song was it? Was that Innuendo?

QFT is old internet lingo for Quoted For Truth I'm not certain which one you mean regarding the 20 minutes before the band had gone on stage. Not saying it didn't happen, I just can't think of one off the top of my head. |

Not Innuendo. "Innuendo" was mostly written by Brian, Roger and John. Freddie added some lyrics and part of the melody -- and the vocal improvisation. *** I just noticed that Adam is now in Brian May's official, quite impressive biography. And it is so nicely stated that I wanted to post it here:
"2012 saw a return of Queen onstage, this time with guest vocalist, Adam Lambert, a partnership, which delighted fans and critics unanimously."Link: www.brianmay.com/brian/biog.htmlUPDATE 19 FEBRUARY 2013 Not new but I had never read it and figured I was not alone. Also -- delight is what I saw from the Queen fans at Hammersmith. So it seems like the perfect word. *** With all of the Freddie discussion the past couple of days, I just wanted to say that IMO, Queen would not have been Queen without Brian. I many ways his distinctive guitar sound and musicality was just as important as Freddie to making Queen. This is one of those cases where a somewhat unlikely combination made both artists better. He is the WWRY of Queen but is also the one who wrote most of, including the bridge in, "The Show Must Go On". For example, "Love of My Life" was a nice song (written by Freddie), but it became a beautiful song when Brian arranged it for the guitar. I am very pleased that Adam has been able to work with Brian and Roger -- and I think it has made him a better artist/vocalist/performer. NOTE: I posted this but please do not start a discussion about Freddie vs. Brian. Since it appears that more QAL is in the planning, discussion of Adam and Queen is news. And yes, the rumor mill is churning and it appears there may be a QAL return in 2014. Timing would/will be good for Adam. Here's hoping for the Grammy's.  That is a smile because it is just my hope. The rumor is just that there will be another high-profile appearance -- in 2014. |
