I see to more: Must follow artist on twitter Best VIntage revival after getting 250 points - I exceeded my voting limit.... Sorry, I hope I didn't confuse you guys. We can vote for ( logo.to/KoFHEY) Fan Army for the Win Must follow artist on twitterThe Vintage category does not benefit Adam in voting terms, i just think its funny that they use his GIF. Here comes the stupid question again: I'm trying to vote, but I did not succeed. Can someone tell me why Ialways get this notice? (Last year, I had no problems.) " Uh oh! An error occured.
Status is a duplicate."

I know, he sounds gorgeous and the voice is so crystal clear. And yet there are people saying that "whatever they did" to his voice ruins the song as does "all the autotune"?! ??? Surely we can't all be listening to the same song? I am taking a risk at posting before reading the whole thread. Forgive me if it has all been settled. Disregarding the fact that this was ripped from the CD, it is, without a doubt, 200% Adam's voice. Don't you love how he can change it up? The reason it doesn't sound like what we are used to is that Adam floats the notes in his head voice without incorporating much of any chest resonance. Then, he adds just a bit of a breathy sound. Someone said it sounds like Sade, and I can hear that. And a little MJ, a little Bruno. As for autotune, just possibly for effect on some of the ooohs, and ahhhs. But not willing to swear on that. For those who say this doesn't sound like Adam, I refer you to the opening lines of "If I Can't Have You" on Idol. Same technique, same sound. If this has all been settled, just scroll past. Yes! The vocals sound like they're floating on a breeze.. Thanks for the explanation.

Many of the Queen fans who don't like the idea of Adam singing with the band have praised Marc Martel - which makes sense, because he's a good singer - but it makes me wonder if the Queen diehards prefer him over Adam because his vocal tones sound eerily close to Freddie's. Is that what they want, a Mercury sound-alike? Even if the singer has none of Freddie's emotion?
Speaking only for myself, I'd rather hear Adam, with all of his vocal powers and ability to deliver songs with passion, interpreting the Queen music catalog in his own unique, fresh way. With all due respect to Marc, the music deserves to be sung by someone who offers more than a copy (although it's a very good copy) of the Freddie sound. There can be only one Mercury. Just like there's only one AFL.I think they like Martel because He is safe! He is imitating Freddie! Although his voice is fantastic, he lacks the emotion and soul that both Freddie and Adam sing those songs with. IMO, they are scared shitless of Adam. They are afraid he will sound better and get high praise. How would we feel if we finally heard someone else sing WWFM better than Adam?! :-/ This is why it it so savvy and smart of Adam to present Queen's music the way he plans to: giving the songs life with his own interpretation, paying homage to Freddie, but NOT imitating him. This allows fans (of both Queen and Adam) to avoid the potential embarrassment of comparisons. No one needs to feel hurt. When Adam's vocals awe and amaze, it won't diminish Freddie in the eyes of his fans because Adam's performance will be different. Apples and oranges. Likewise, Adam can avoid backlash if their performances are picked apart and compared because they won't be copies of each other. The songs will stand on their own.

Still no Fault today. Does anyone have any thoughts on how long I should wait until I try to contact them? This mag was pricey. I'm curious how many others are still waiting and what is considered reasonable. :-/

As it whittles down, will start to wonder if I have been scorned.
