Oh Freddie......what an amazing legacy you left! Indeed he did! I still remember where I heard the news of Freddie's death. I was quite young, sitting in my car driving to work and it was raining heavily and then the radio host talked about it. I was devastated and started to cry, so I had to stop my car cause I didn't see a single thing. I still feel very sad about it after all those years

I still feel very sad about it after all those years I went to his house in Kensington a couple of days later but it was still full of media people and I felt too shy to go near - so I went back later and spent time reading the messages left....so moving....

In the GMB interview there is one part that just made me go "wow". Adam said nothing new, it was just how he seemed. Centered and yet amazed. Such an interesting and amazing turn of events for him:
Piers was talking about Adam singing a Queen song on Idol, and commented that Adam sounded like Freddie who was one of the greatest singers in the history of music. Then he asked:
Piers: “Now here you are. You are the new Freddie. …you’ve got to say, how did I get to this?”
Adam: “If someone had said to me as I was walking into that audition, oh in 5 years you’re going to be on a world tour with them, I would have thought they were crazy.”
***
I know there was speculation about Adam joining Queen in 2009 but having it evolve more slowly, and be more organic, has worked to Adam's advantage. Allowing him to build his own solo career and to also have the QAL experience!! I know many artists have multiple career streams but I can't think of anyone out there who has two really high profile touring lives intertwined like Adam does now.
{Double the fun for me too!}
