Queen’s legendary guitarist Brian May was recently interviewed by Guitar World Magazine and revealed a strong fact about Adam Lambert and Freddie Mercury comparisons.
May also pays his tribute to legendary singer Paul Rodgers who worked with Queen between 2004 and 2009.
Here is his statement:
“We had a fantastic time with Paul. He has his own style, which we integrated into the band.
But what happened was, there was a meeting point where we wanted to go deeply into his music — we were influenced by it in the first place. For me, it was a joy to play ‘All Right Now’, ‘Can’t Get Enough Of Your Love’ and all those things.”
It became difficult as time went on, though. We would play South America, where people didn’t know that music, so we played more QUEEN songs. Paul dealt with it well, but I think it was hard for him to abandon a lot of his material.
We really enjoyed it as an experiment, but as an experiment it had… limits. Eventually, we thought, ‘It’s probably gone as far as it can. Paul needs to get back to his own career.’ Because he couldn’t just go on being the frontman of QUEEN. By mutual agreement, we thought, ‘That’s it.'”
Brian May also made an unexpected statement and revealed his ideas about Adam Lambert and Freddie Mercury comparisons. May said that Adam Lambert can do anything Freddie can do.
Here is what he said:
“Now, with Adam, it’s a different story, because Adam can do all the stuff that Freddie did and more. It doesn’t matter what you throw at Adam — he can do it. He can do ‘Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy’ [from 1976’s ‘A Day At The Races’], which we wouldn’t dream of throwing at Paul Rodgers because it just wouldn’t work. With Adam, it’s a different kettle of fish. He’s a born exhibitionist.
He’s not Freddie, and he’s not pretending to be him, but he has a parallel set of equipment. He knows how to deal with an audience. He teases and taunts an audience quite naturally, without thinking about it. He loves to dress up. Although Paul did dress up a bit for us. We got a lot of sequins on him.

But wasn't Brian making more of a comparison between Paul and Adam? And why Adam is a better fit than Paul. But I guess it does not have the same outrage factor unless you make it between Adam and Freddie, lol.

But I guess it does not have the same outrage factor unless you make it between Adam and Freddie, lol. I think you are thinking of a different article. Brian said this recently and it has been all over the media. A few days ago in our entertainment section of The Sun paper ---there was this same type of article and the quotes re Adam/Freddie comparison. (The picture of Adam was a good size and an old shot of him with his short lived red hair! Mind you when he was in Calgary his hair was that red color.) Also on the same day just above Adam's article there was an article on the top selling artists and bands right now with QAL being on top due to the popularity of the movie BR...etc. etc. Nice to see so much coverage for Adam and the links with Queen.
