It was okay. Didn't seem like a tribute, tho. I guess they just wanted to do the song. Seemed odd that so many rappers were winning the pop/rock awards. SM is very successful but he is not a great singer. And he is rather bland. Even Bieber (who I don't care for) at least has some swagger, lol. But he has achieved a lot and is now playing arenas so he is doing something right so good for him. The teens love him and that is what matters the most.

I PVR'ed the late version of the AMA's and I thought Panic at the Disco musically did great justice to BR. The lead singer made it his own, no imitation, basing the vocals on his own singing abilities and interpretation.
You have a youthful respected band playing music from 40+ years ago.
To me it was was a coup to have it on the AMA's --highlighting Queen music, and of course pumping the movie for the demographic who watch the AMA show.

What a great way to get the hype going for the movie. Love Panic! High Hopes is my current jam

Shawn Mendes is known for his voice form the get-go. He CAN sing, it's unarguable. Not like Adam ofc but it that were the measurement barely anyone else could sing. Shawns singing has evolved TREMENDOUSLY in the last year! www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJZTJSlinyYwww.youtube.com/watch?v=-2p5OnYcjY8I can see where the bland is coming from although I personally think there is hardly anyone out there who radiates so much pure JOY for what he does than Shawn Mendes. As we all know art is up to taste as it should be. I happen to like Shawns music and as I've said I just admire him for his incredible development in his skills. (good personality with depth and good looks are a plus, we all know that from Adam ) It hasn't been specifically pointed out here but I loved what Adam said about reality TV recently. He dissed the Kardashian/Jenner clan and the likes in such a classy way lol. He said reality tv is not his thing even though he came from it but it was talent based. Other reality formats glorify the mediocrity. LOVE him. I 1000% agree.

Maybe I would have enjoyed that more. I don't think he was bad, tho. And I don't measure every artist by Adam. Don't know why that is sometimes brought up whenever someone is unimpressed by someone. Sometimes we just like/enjoy different things, artists and/or a particular performance, lol.

I didn't mean you specifically or that I took your comment that way, when I brought up the comparison with Adam. It was just a light-hearted remark, because people on here (myself included) have said that it happenes when you become so used to Adams singing. Yes, like i said art is up to taste as it should be. I was just arguing about the singing from a technical point. Not everyone likes the same voices even though they are technically good. All good
