Queen + Adam Lambert Give 'Ghost Town' Rock Edge During First Live Performance
By Joe Lynch | September 17, 2015 10:10 AM EDT

Freddie Mercury remains irreplaceable, but Queen fans hungry to see the surviving band members live in the 21st century owe Adam Lambert a healthy debt of gratitude for bringing the British band's classic material back to the stage with style, aplomb and an incredible set of pipes.

So it's about time that Queen returned the favor and lent their majestic stadium rock touch to one of Lambert's solo tracks. Playing Sao Paulo on Sept. 16, Queen + Adam Lambert performed the latter's "Ghost Town" live for the first time together.

The eerie whistle hook from The Original High original is replaced by Brian May's guitar, giving the Max Martin-produced track a hard rock recasting. The song is surprisingly durable -- it wouldn't sound out of place on a live double LP set from the '70s.

Watch two different fan-shot clips of Glambert doing "Ghost Town" with Queen below.

Lyndsey Parker - Review - Yahoo Music : Watch Adam Lambert Perform ‘Ghost Town’ With Queen for the First Time music.yahoo.com/news/watch-adam-lambert-perform-ghost-town-with-queen-129269501186.html …

Adam Lambert has been belting Queen’s songs for the past three years, all the while keeping his solo career separate from his stadium-rock side gig. But this Wednesday, rock and pop worlds collided, quite awesomely, when Lambert got to sing his own original song, the current Original High single “Ghost Town,” onstage with Queen in San Paulo, Brazil.

It was epic, of course. But it was also unexpected. This was “Ghost Town” as it’d never been heard before. Normally a club banger with a chilled-out ‘90s house vibe, with Queen the song was transformed into an audacious '70s rock anthem, with Brian May’s distinctively fiery guitar licks replacing the familiar whistling hook. The result fit right in with Queen’s Rock in Rio setlist, in between the classics “Save Me” and “Who Wants to Live Forever.”

This marked the first time that Lambert, who met Queen’s Brian May and Roger Taylor when he sang with them at the Season 8 American Idol finale six years ago, had performed his own material at a Queen gig. But the concert was historical in another, full-circle way: The band is in Brazil to play Rock in Rio this Friday, and Queen (with original singer Freddie Mercury, of course) performed at the very first Rock in Rio festival 30 years ago.
