I remember you noted in your comments about the Kiev show that Adam was very good but not a home run. The most problematic song was TSMGO as he was uncharacteristically under pitch maybe due to sound issues. I noticed it also in Poland though not as obvious. I also thought he sounded a bit strained. Have to go back and listen to Moscow but it didn't strike me the same way. He was of course still great and he is quick to fix and compensate but I think with another show tomorrow night, if it was an intentional move to rest him, it was a good call. I really liked it in that intimate moment of Roger and the fans and if it has special meaning for them, it was the right thing to do. Oh absolutely, I mean it's a DIFFICULT song to sing. No doubt so a rest might be good. And yes it is VERY special to Queen fans. I might have said this elsewhere (and it's mentioned in the bio in the Queen thread) but Brian told the story and I'll paraphrase: 'I heard this little run by Rog and John and I started writing lyrics with Freddie. We never talked about it but we both knew. I even asked him if he would be okay singing some of these lyrics. He looked up, smiled and said, "I will give it my all, dear". And then later Freddie was very sickly and could barely stand at times. So he'd give it a try and it wasn't good enough for him, so he propped himself up on the mixing desk as he was too tired to really stand, downed a few vodkas, and really let it rip and it was quite possibly the best vocal he'd put down on a Queen track" So yeah, it definitely has a lot of meaning to Queen fans and to Brian especially.  Thank you Talon. Hadn't heard it quite that way. The song was always incredibly poignant and now will be more so. |

I don't know much about Neil but I'm not certain his first tweet was a diss. I think he kind of meant in a more general way. I mean music in general and rock music has changed QUITE a bit in the years. He didn't necessarily say it was bad but it was definitely much different than someone who saw Queen in their heyday, I'm sure it was much much different. No. See again this is where hetero people have no clue what they are talking about but try to be apologists to smooth things over. Well not on QOL but whatever. You guys are a resistant bunch, I'll give ya that! It is homophobic. Homophobic comments do not belong to hetero people to define. Any time someone's sexual orientation or indenfication is the target or a punchline, it's homophobic. Are you telling me the verb "MINCING" is what? a MASCULINE way of walking? LOL RuPaul: “My goal is to always come from a place of love, but sometimes you just have to break it down for a motherfucker"And while we're on the subject his second comment was sarcastic, too. "paying tribute to themselves". whatever. Adam Lambert has shut every bitch around the world UP. OVAHNESS!!! |

Adam was so sweet and at the end kept trying to focus the attention on Queen & they kept trying to focus it on him and then Roger hugged

Well one of my best friends is a homosexual and a big Queen fan and he took it the way I inferred and was not insulted at all. I'm not trying to apologize. If it was meant in a belittling way it deserves to be struck. *shrug*
He (my friend) is not an Adam fan, but he thought he did a decent job overall.
