Did my part - Bought Two Fux, and even have set it up to stream on repeat on my computer, when I left to go for a run.
I will say I haven't seen credits but of the initial question about whether that was Brian..No chance in hell. If it is I'd be really surprised. The first two notes sound Mayesque but after that it doesn't sound much like him. I could be wrong.
My thoughts on 2F? It's good. It's a step closer to what I'd want, though still too much under the clubby dancy banner for my tastes. I do like the melody, especially the chorus parts. and i like the bouncy string part. The only negative I'd say is that if he's hoping this will draw in and keep fans he's winning over from the Queen camp, I don't think this studio version would be the one.
In order to fuse his classic rock and today's modern pop feel, I'd love to see Adam take a song written by someone in that realm like Justin Hawkins (like on FYE) or a Butch Walker, or even a Brian May, but then record it with a modern producer. ..or as I'm writing - maybe working with Butch Walker overall would do him wonders. Butch had a glam rock type band, Marvelous 3 then he turned solo artist, and now is a writer/producer. Since 2012 he's produced:
Pink – The Truth About Love (2012)
Taylor Swift – Red (2012)
Fall Out Boy – Save Rock and Roll (2013)
Panic! at the Disco – Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die! (2013)
Keith Urban – Fuse (2013) – Even the Stars Fall 4 U
Frank Turner – Positive Songs for Negative People (2015)
Brian Fallon – Painkillers (2016)
Carly Rae Jepsen - Everywhere You Look (2016)
Given his classic rock background and modern production success it might be a perfect marriage. (and he's also a Queen fan - he's done BoRap in concert many times as well as a few others)
