STUTTGARTER-ZEITUNG.DE (Google translation)Queen concert in StuttgartWho is Adam Lambert?
From January Georg Plavec February 13, 2015 - 10:28 clockOn Friday, the band Queen will perform at Stuttgart Schleyer Halle - with Adam Lambert as the front man. Adam who? We have listened to us the replacement Freddie Mercury times.
 Stuttgart - From the rock band Queen might have already heard. Where Freddy Mercury unfortunately is already more than 23 years dead and the archive material for posthumous hits definitely did not extend to the present, but only until 1995 on the album "Made in Heaven".
So what to do? The Queen guitarist Brian May was definitely too young at Mercury's death only 44 and for Rockstar retired life, drummer Roger Taylor was really only 42. Queen also have so many hits for eternity created that you can easily continue to tour with it through the world can. 2014 and 2015, the band consistently sold out venues on the go, on Friday it comes to Stuttgart - as "Queen + Adam Lambert".
Only: who is bitteschön Adam Lambert?
Adam Lambert is the current singer of Queen. 33 years old, American singer and actor. Lambert came in second place at the US talent show "American Idol" in 2009 to show business and has since produced several albums that have been quite successful in the US, however, more than just managed in Europe in the charts, each on average places. With Queen 2009 he sang in "American Idol" 2011 then again at the European Music Awards and as a result of individual concerts. Since the early summer of 2014 he is (with breaks) with Queen on a world tour.
But Adam Lambert is also a good substitute for Freddie Mercury? "Adam Lambert impresses with a similar vocal range as the legendary Freddie Mercury, which resurrects the songs brilliantly," is in the press release . What is truth?
And it soundsLet's hear it out. Six years ago, in the preliminary competition on "American Idol" singing Lambert a few seconds of Queen's classic "Bohemian Rhapsody" - and unplugged before the selection panel . That sounded promising, his "We are the Champions" in the final Lambert wore a tremolo-heavy version before and already with Queen as a band.
Now the Queen songs are mostly developed in the seventies and eighties, as many of rock music meant something different than it is today. Your undoubtedly outstanding songs play Queen but to date, and a new singer can help to not make it look too museum. "I'm singing his own, but do not remove me too much of Freddie's style," says Adam Lambert. It sounds something like this:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TuEPdnhsZYFor rock music includes the performance, the image that you turn on the stage. You should remember therefore: as Freddie Mercury died in 1991 from AIDS, the world was in dealing with homosexuality and HIV is not as much as today. Adam Lambert live gay open. His wild make-up, the gaudy outfits and the way he moves on stage, from the masses today certainly better understood than it would have been the case at the Freddie Mercury times.
Lambert dares even more explicit performances: during his performance at the American Music Award 2009 as he making out with the keyboardist . The public criticism countered Lambert in the BBC . He said he was not aware apologized for the kiss, "because I did not feel that they have done something wrong. ... It's just a kiss! "
New is not plannedIn the best case, a young singer like Adam Lambert brings a new tonality in the Queen song. Writing new material and publish date is obviously not planned - to present the old songs live even in 2015 is worth from her public response yet and probably have queen already enough to do to manage their own heritage.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMpJ5UWvX3wBut a deficiency can not resolve the best singer: It has the Queen hits quite often the original version in the ear, but at the same time, what did in several decades of global labor numerous cover bands it. Will say: Even with an ever so good replacement Freddie Mercury Queen can only sound like their own cover band.
It will be interesting to see if the retirement age but much closer gerückten original band members Adam Lambert will go as a front man to retire. Your previous Freddie Mercury spare men did not remain faithful to the band: Paul Rodgers could mimic the Mercury only from 2004 to 2009. Elton John, George Michael and Michael Pras were already, Lady Gaga did not want. Where: in August 2014 the singer had in Sydney on the song "Another one bites the dust" a guest appearance .

That preview article is quite nice -- but I don't think the author has seen them live or at least he has not reviewed this show. I hope he sees it and then writes a review because I do not think he will maintain this pre-concert belief: "Even with an ever so good replacement Freddie Mercury Queen can only sound like their own cover band." Read more: adamtopia.com/thread/2811/2-13-15-al-stuttgart#ixzz3RdRz23CT *** I find it interesting that the "Adam is not Freddie" line that was pick-up throughout 2014 in previews and reviews, has pretty much vanished in 2015. Now all the previews recognize who good Adam is. But a bit of the pre-concert skepticism remains. Seems to vanish by song #3. I wonder how these concert will be recalled in 28 years -- 2042. (The last live Queen with Freddie concert was over 28 years ago.) |
