Google translation. A good review! Cecy @cecycat1 14s14 seconds ago CONCERT OF THE QUEEN AND ADAM LAMBERT IN MILAN ~ © ANSA - Google Translate it here:... fb.me/6ooJdSftW
Among lights, smoke bombs, handclaps and several rock was a return fireworks that of Queen, tonight at the Mediolanum Forum Assago have performed with the American Adam Lambert in the only Italian date of their world tour. To the tune of 'One Vision' figure of the singer former contestant on 'American Idol' in the belly of the huge towers Q positioned behind the stage: on him focus the expectations and doubts of the public who filled the arena Milan sold out. And despite bronchitis which caused him to skip the date of Brussels two days ago, Adam Lambert has dismissed any suspicion showing in great shape: as we have seen from the start with the hit proto-metal 'Stone Cold Crazy'. Fill the metaphorical shoes left by Freddie Mercury is not easy craft: they know all the pop stars who performed alongside Brian May and Roger Taylor in the last twenty-four, from Robbie Williams to Paul Rodgers. Adam Lambert seems to be the most suitable to hold this uncomfortable role: her vocal and histrionic are second only to those of the late Bulsara. To the tune of 'Killer Queen' Lambert shows what he is capable, combining agility singing on the stairs and a powerful falsetto charge camp and glamor, as laid out on a chaise longue golden sipping champagne. Lambert does not do the rest of the mystery of her artistic debt in front of Mercury: "I can not believe to be on stage with the living legends of rock, were it not for Freddie would not be here," says the singer who in 2009 thanks to a cover of the Queen was reported in the talent show American. It does not seem a coincidence that tell before introducing 'I Want To Break Free', also known as pro-LGBT anthem. The group covers all his classics in a real night to Greatest Hits: From the first hit single 'Seven Seas Of Rhye' to un'applauditissima 'Who Wants To Live Forever', from 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love' to 'Under Pressure ', from' Tie Your Mother Down 'to the super-hit' Bohemian Rhapsody ', that mixing live and playback with lots of original video clip closes the concert before the encore. The ability of performers Lambert has also joined a rock-star sensibility, always ready to engage the public: beyond the numerous flashy outfits between studs, wedges and crowns the singer has been able to enchant the audience, inviting them to sing on 'Somebody To Love' and clap on 'Radio Ga Ga'. This ensured the success of an evening gone far beyond the tribute: Taylor and May are not simply the torchbearers of a legacy far, but rock stars who still know how to win tens of thousands of spectators at a time. The solos of Brian May - on songs like 'Fat Bottomed Girls' or 'I Want It All' and in his long-time solo prog psychedelic in the second half of the live - are as powerful as the old days. In addition to the dishes, for his part, Roger Taylor contributes his voice in the middle segment of the live, when the two founders of the band take center stage, leaving the singer behind the scenes, the drummer leaves the skins to his son Rufus and guardian of Freddie Mercury in 'Those Are The Days Of Our Lives' and 'It's A Kind Of Magic'. "We are happy to be back Queen from you," says Brian May in Italian with a pun. Between the energy of the band and the explosiveness of Lambert, really for over two hours the Queen seemed those of thirty years ago, when the British entered the Olympus of rock. And an encore 'stadium' with 'We Will Rock You' and 'We Are The Champions' has just confirmed that the rock has no age.

I say this as a Queen fan, and a Roger and Brian fan --- I just can't seen them performing Queen songs with anyone else than the 6 people on the stage right now. (Even Spike.)
This show has just gotten so much tighter and better as it as going along and they are now anticipating each other and compensating.
It is a far cry from what was an impressive first real performance at the 2011 EMAs* and the 2012 mini tour.
I am so happy this collaboration happened.
* ETA: No Rufus in 2011.
