Put me in the category of "there's no point in comparing" Adam to Freddie. For me, TBH, it's kind of a moot point. Freddie was WAYYY before my time; I only know of him as a memory/from videos/from what people say. Adam is very much an artist of today and I love that. From the videos and everything, Freddie seems like a wonderful, amazing singer and entertainer. I am very happy that the history of music had him. Adam is no Freddie and I would NOT want him to be that! I like him because he is his own original artist, and a badass one, too. That being said, he has a great voice and a theatrical showmanship, which I can see some (including Brian and Roger, apparently ) see as a good fit for Queen. So to me it's a win-win. As part of a younger generation, I've been enjoying discovering some of Queen's music through Adam - I'm sure this was, in part, Brian and Roger's hope when they signed Adam on.
You've said what I did a bit back, what others have said - time to quit comparing and enjoy the ride. It's so much fun. And a whole new generation is getting to go along. How cool is that.
Bye the bye - Yea!! for BTR and Brazil. Any sign of Map yet?

Notes on the concert: Adam was great. He was himself. It's what I wanted my bestfriend to see when I bought our tickets. We were in fanzone. And we're standing. There were technical mistakes, sometimes instruments were too loud. About Zemfira personal opinion:crowd didn't welcomed her, i understand she is kind of snobbish, but i felt bad for her. She is not a bad singer, but i believe she had a difficult time singing in english. They were more kind after performance. Last part of concert I couldn't tape or make photo because I was dancing and "having a good time" =)). Some were very impressed by Adam, few were not, i get from them they wanted a copy of Freddy. Three men before us were having a blast with someone's daughter. I heard guys discussing Adam appearance, they're shocked when he returned without jacket only in t-shirt. They were saying he looked like Rembo, it was funny=). They didn't expect muscles.After concert we were amezed. We plannet to go to Red Squar, but my friend who wasn't Adam's fan told me: "What is Red Squar after this concert" I hope Adam's keeps that tank top appereance for this concerts.. LOL.. so some guys who think he looks feminine will see his broad chest and that muscle on his uper arms... HAHAHA.. coshkimishki I love your post and bet you had so much fun there..

Wow, was just reading the reviews and scores of Maroon 5, Linkin Park, and Chris Brown's new albums at Metacritic!! They are really bad!! One reviewer gave Brown a 0. Yes, that's a zero! Too bad there can't be bonus points, on the radio charts, for reviews. Adam would be Top 10 compared to these!!

Good post, cassie. But Queen really isn't true hard rock. If it was, I probably would not love them. It is way more melodic. They almost have their very own genre! Rock/Pop/Opera. Freddie did not have a hard rock voice either I think the term "rock voice" does not mean anything. Adam sings in a different style than Freddie -- and he sings in a way that no other pop-rock singer does. Nothing wrong with that. But no reason to expect someone who love Freddie or Plant or Perry to love Adam. What is different about Adam? I think that sometimes Adam's vocals are too complex for rock music -- for example, Bo Rhap from Kiev... For the most part in this song, Adam's vocals are perfect. But listen to him at 3:30-3:41 on this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ax8P2KJaTMgFor me, both an Adam and a Queen fan, it would have been so much better without that extra stuff. Not being wedded to the original, myself, I have to say that I love what Adam did there.
