Roger Taylor: "Freddie would have hated age"
Interview.
by Eduardo Slusarczuk
The Queen drummer and co-founder, who played in GEBA morning, review your history, reminds Mercury, praises and says Adam Lambert will play until they can.
No scores. Drummer claimed its history, and says he has nothing to complain about.
With just over half an hour late in the call from somewhere in London, Roger Taylor salutes and apologizes for missing overvalued "English punctuality". "It took me there having lunch with Taylor Hawkins, a friend, almost a brother of the Foo Fighters" is warranted immediately.
Surely something must have learned from you.
I do not know; what is certain is that he saw us play when he was very young, and not so much us.
At 66 years, drummer of Queen, that morning at the GEBA stadium will meet for the third time with the Argentine public (see No two without three), the issue of time is a common place.
". When you start the race, never imagine that will last as in 1971 we could not think think we would be doing 40 years later," says Taylor, who immediately placed in his mind: "For over 18 months of a Fantastic tour with Adam (Lambert), people still want to hear our music That makes us very happy and satisfied with what we have done and what we continue to do and inspires us to keep playing until we can Why should... stop? A painter would not stop painting because aging, why should do a musician? "he asks.
The dilemma, in any case, who continue a story that began when he and Brian May, and soon Freddie Mercury and John Deacon formed what would become one of the biggest bands in rock history. And after the experience shared with Paul Rodgers, the duo decided that the American Idol Lambert would be the ideal candidate.
Is there a common denominator between Adam and Freddie?
Definitely there are. Adam has a great sense of humor, and not taken too seriously, except música.Freddie was equal. Moreover, it is one of the best singers I have ever heard in my life. Plays our songs perfectly. In addition, we became very good friends, and brought a breath of youth to Brian and me.
Considering its theatricality and histrionics, they are not afraid to become a clone of Freddie?
No. First of all, because Adam sounds like himself. Also, ever he tried to impersonate Freddie; he has his own style. It is something that we have seen since the beginning of our relationship, in 2009. The first show we did together gave us the pattern that could work very well; We immediately made several more shows, which confirmed what we had felt, and since then, everything was improving even more.
20 days ago, Freddie would have turned 69, and many people recalled in networks and in other areas. What causes you the validity of such devotion, almost 25 years after his death?
Is incredible. In a sense, when someone dies prematurely, the public keeps to himself the image of that person in his youth. For my part, I'm sure he'd never wanted to reach age 69. Freddie would have hated. (Laughter)
And you?
Sometimes I have to remember how old I have, because I can not believe it. I feel great.
Do you miss some of the times they were on top of the music world?
No. Things have their cycle. I am not clear what may be the world's largest at this time band. Perhaps Foo Fighters; I do not know. They are my friends, and I see in them the same attitude we had. I do not think things have changed much, beyond some new musical forms such as rap. But good music is taking its place.
Did you have to pay a high price to occupy that place?
At that time it was very difficult to live a normal life. What suffers most is home to one, the people you love and who love you, because you're always away. At the same time, everyone thinks they're wonderful, and might at some point that it go to his head. Today we are more mature, and good standing on the ground, but obviously there was a price to pay. Freddie was very engaged with social life. There was a price ... we were younger. Anyway, life has been really good to us. I have nothing to complain about.
What was the formula to stay together so long?
We were a real group. That helped us a lot, especially in bad times. When Freddie was dying, we isolate ourselves from the world and unite even more. In the distance, I consider our current situation, I think we have had a fantastic career.
A career that began Brian and you together; which are then joined Freddie and John Deacon, and that for many years now becomes responsible for you two. How do you define Brian May; a friend, a brother, a partner?
All together. We are like brothers. Sometimes I think he's crazy, but at the end of the day, are like brothers from different mothers.
Did it change for you the sense of making music?
No. I'm very proud of our history, of our journey through the music. I am proud of those songs that we did and that after so many years people remember, some new-that any, and to be with my brother still on stage.
You mentioned "new songs". When you compose, do you think Queen or your solo career? Or is it that Queen already has enough good songs in his repertoire?
Is that a good topic because it is not easy to determine when enough is enough. At one point, Brian and I would love to write songs for Adam, but I think that in the future there will be a lot of new music for Queen. We have already done a lot in the past.
Adam Lambert
"There is no competition possible with Freddie"
"I've never been in Argentina, so for me this will be a very exciting experience. I know the public is extremely passionate. Even someone told me more than in Brazil, where he was incredible." In a room of the Faena Hotel, Adam Lambert is about to finish a marathon of interviews, without losing any of its verve. The same as exhibits to discuss the role played by these days. "For me it is an honor to play those songs that accompanied so many people throughout his life. Songs with lyrics the public knows to perfection, allowing one to connect with them. And for a singer, there is nothing more important than connecting with people. So the circle closes more than good " He says the singer, whose first contact with Brian May and Roger Taylor was his interpretation of We Are the Champions, during the final gala of the 2009 edition of American Idol, which was relegated strikingly jackpot.
However, his performance earned him the trust of Taylor and May to take the place of Freddie Mercury; and he accepted. "Obviously, no possible competition with Freddie. He was really amazing. It was a unique singer, and a great composer. I would have never occurred to imitate; while he could not stray too far from the original versions. So we looked for a balance, trying to interpret what these songs represent to the people, "Lambert, which ensures that when making music, the gap of more than 30 years separates him from his fellow travelers explained away. And offstage? "Offstage, after the shows, we shared a wine dinner, we laughed together. I feel we have a great connection ".
There are no two without three
"Argentina has a special meaning"
"Argentina has a special meaning for us never forget our first visit in 1981. For us it was a mysterious tour;... Do not know what to expect it was something new, and it was a fabulous public remember the feeling that caused us all world knew the lyrics of our songs in a country where the language is so different. It was really fantastic, "says Taylor, without being overbearing. And with the images of that -some visit, including lace armed soldiers separating the audience from the stage and the group aboard the carriage assault when they were transferred to the stadium of Velez, formed part of the gallery exhibited in the London theater where the musical We Will Rock You spent over a decade . in cartel-term memory in the "The political situation at that time was very special, and I think even then very few bands in Western Europe had been doing shows the size of ours. And the response was extraordinary. They were beautiful memories. And a feeling of warmth with the audience, that the second visit did nothing but confirm ".

VISITING ARGENTINA
"Freddy Mercury inspired me artistically and lifestyle," said Adam Lambert
The young American singer Adam Lambert, on tour with Queen, said the key was not trying to imitate the late singer, whom he considered one of his major influences, together with David Bowie and Marc Bolan.
Lambert, along with the original members of Queen guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor, will be uploaded on Friday September 25 on stage at the Estadio GEBA Buenos Aires and Sunday 27 at the Orfeo Superdome in Cordoba, under tour Do not Stop Them Now.
Lambert stood out in the eighth season of American Idol by his voice and his glamorous features, lover of the great costumes, hairstyles and for being an avowed gay, no matter how conservative think the American public. "In the 70s, Queen sounded hard rock, almost heavy, so heavy metal musicians admire both the band, but in the 80s all became more pop. Radio Gaga is a pop song. I like both heavy pop stage as Queen. I love tap climates both styles generated. They are different emotions, "Lambert said in dialogue with Telam. "I talk a lot with Brian May and Roger Taylor because I want to know about was Freddy up and down the stage. I think we have a lot in common "Lambert said before laughing precisely by extravagant tastes, the great burden of sexual ambiguity that characterized Mercury and that this young man born in Indianapolis also used. On what it means to interpret the classic Queen, said: "I am a Queen fan. I always heard his albums and I love them. I think the fans know that I'm one of them. I was also inspired by Freddy and I like the same things to them. And there is that connection. I think I understand how to communicate the songs to the fans, and that's important. The shows are a celebration of Freddy. He is the man. He is the one who made these songs. " Lambert again praising the freedom that Mercury lived his life saying that "Freddy was amazing, it was really very good .... it was so free ... always he did what he wanted, with his voice, the way they dress, the way they live. And that's very inspiring to me. The piano pieces he composed, are truly amazing. He was a great singer, who put all of himself in each of the phrases. " On what the stage with Queen began four years ago, the interpreter said "I feel very lucky to sing with Queen, is a great honor. And go four years and at the beginning was a little intimidated, I think I left all that aside and as long and have grown have more confidence in myself and know better the rest of the band; we know how to carry out some things and that happens with any style of music, the longer you're doing, the more comfortable you feel and internalize it and thus performance may sound even better. "
On doubts about his singing, Lambert acknowledges that "to interpret the songs had a lot of support and concerns. I knew I had to be very careful when I was onstage, because I did not imitate Freddy, either I could go very fast because they are great songs that could not be changed, then I started to fix what was the intention and the idea behind them the songs, I started thinking about the lyrics and imagine what it was that people felt with these songs and to understand this, Roger told me a lot. " "I do not seek technical when I hear singing Freddy, but rather the intentions he had. What he was trying to create at that time. Anyway, I think the voices are different. He had more power in the middle. He had more power in the bass than I have, which gave it more texture. I also believe that my voice gets a little higher than his. Therefore, they are different voices . Even the art (singing) is different. Years passed and there are technical, where I got my mix and I can hear, that help us to be onstage. Freddy did not use it because I had not at that time either. There are different times, "he added.
