A detailed Glasgow review WORTH READING!

Queen + Adam Lambert – SSE Hydro, Glasgow – 14/01/15

www.musicscramble.co.uk/2015/01/16/queen-adam-lambert-sse-hydro-glasgow-live-january-140115/

last two paragraphs:

"The show was billed as Queen + Adam Lambert, not simply Queen (with a new singer). The reason was obvious from almost as soon as the curtain dropped; Adam Lambert is every much a superstar and accomplished frontman in his own right and deserves the billing. What a show this was, and Adam hasn’t replaced Freddie (nobody could) Yes many parallels can be made, such as his immense vocal range, the over-the-top flamboyance and wit, and that he is every bit the one in a billion find for May and Taylor that Freddie was. Lambert is unique, can sing every note, brings his own personality and charisma, and frankly steals the show. The fresh vigour that he has injected to the performances comes across in spades from the band; it is clear that all on that stage love performing together.

Queen always had a frontman, never a singer. They’ve always needed that larger than life personality up front. It’s called a “frontman” for a reason, and Adam Lambert is every bit the frontman."

This is a bit of a review followed by video of some of the best work by Queen. I removed the videos -- but left the song titles. The link to entire article with videos is at the end.

Queen: A Hidden Kind Of Magic

Thank you for sharing this article, Q3! Fangirling incoming...(note: everything I'm writing is my own opinion; I'm no talon-ish expert, just a fan)

It's like a random writer made a list of my favorite Queen songs with only a couple of exceptions. I could really, really, REALLY get behind QAL taking on three quarters of this list.

The only headscratcher to me is "One Year of Love" - probably my least favorite Queen song in the entire catalog. I've tried listening to it quite a few times, but it just doesn't do anything for me. A boring 80's ballad...with so many other down tempo songs that are 100 times better (White Queen, Lily of the Valley, Nevermore, You Take My Breath Away, Save Me, Melancholy Blues, LOML, Teo Torriate, Don't Try So Hard, WWTLF) I don't get why anyone would want to hear this instead?

I also find "Spread Your Wings" to be a little meh...I love it lyrically, but I don't find it as...musically dynamic as other Queen songs.

Other than that...

Father to Son - HELL YES. I jam out to this ~~daily~~ multiple times a day and never tire of it, even the slightest bit. And just when I think I want to repeat it, it fades into White Queen, and I have no choice but to listen to White Queen because it's so effing beautiful.

Was It All Worth It - I absolutely adore this song, but I don't know how the lyrics would sound coming from Adam Lambert, a man at the relative beginning of his career who hasn't exactly had the same life experiences as Freddie.

Scandal - Adam's voice could soar on this one! I would be very interested to hear live instrumentation.

It's Late - Another one of my absolute favorites from the Queen catalog. Would love to hear six to seven minutes of this song a night. The guitar solos....the "scenes"/verses....*melts*

Prophet's Song - Absolutely epic. YES.

You Take My Breath Away - What can I possibly say about this song? It's the single most gorgeous song in the entire catalog, hands down.

Liar - A great showcase for the entire band, as shown in the Rainbow.

Hitman - This song rocks, but it wouldn't be my first choice from Innuendo!

I could have written your note! (But I was too tired last nite to do it.)

This list includes many of the song I have wanted to hear Adam sing -- and it is not the typical list.

Liar, Hitman, It's Late, YTMBA (pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeze), Scandal, and then, for some unknown reason he plucks out "One Year of Love"?

I also could past on "Spread Your Wings" but that is not happening.

****

But we got "Save Me" and that was also on my top, top, top wish list.

Perhaps AVICII is involved with A3.

Or maybe Nile Rodgers?

We'll see!
