Re the NME article, eh. From what I hear, this is par for the course for them. They've not been Queen fans in the past, and nothing has changed, at least for that writer. I think making controversial statements is part of their MO, thus the guitar = machine comment.
It'll be interesting to see what the actual interview with Adam will be like.

I think it would upset me a bit if The Rolling Stones replaced Mick Jagger and still called themselves the Rolling Stones. Jagger as a singer for the Stones IS irreplacable. I can identify a bit with hard core queen fans when they view the whole adam thing as a type of sacrilege. That being said though it is a shame to let great music by original band members go unplayed and unheard, especially if the musicians want to continue to play and fans want to hear.
and i believe there would be quite a few beatles fans excited to see paul and ringo play together and recreate the music even if that olly murs was singing, (or was that another underhanded slam) don't know much about mr murs.

' Guitarists just operate a machine. Singers are human and irreplaceable" LOL REALLY DUDE? REALLY? Tell me what I'm feeling when Jimmy Page or Brian May or Jimmy Hendrix or B B King or Santana or Gary Moore, to name just a few, because Oh lord I looooove guitar solos, and the feeling I have is like their guitar is talking to me, crying, laughing, being angry. Sorry you know shit about music. I'd love to hear Keith Richard's comment on this BS. They just don't bring any PASSION when they play....they are just operating a machine.

Just watched BTIKM video again, I love it and I love Adam's amazing voice.
Looks like he is getting there, slowly but surely:
To the side, Adams other video counts: BTIKM 3,659,040 and BTIKM 1,899,382 (don't know why there are 2 vids with different numbers WWFM 26,887,799 views IIHY 28,006,922 FYE 13,521,054
And for comparison to other top artists shown: Let it Rain - Bruno Mars 69,241,447 Mirror: Lil Wayne /Bruno Mars 43,392,725 One that Got Away - Katy Perry 77,183,912 Domino - Jessie J. 40,473,009 Turn Me On - David Guetta/Nicki Minaj 33,815,556 Give Me All Your Luvin -Madonna/M.I.A. & Nicki Minaj 21,098,148 Charlie Brown - Coldplay 6,295,615
A lot of these other songs have been out for quite awhile, other than Madonna, but hey, it's Madonna.
I found all these figures interesting, and I think BTIKM will get lots more hits, especially now that it is in the VH1 top 20.
I have never understood why FYE isn't more popular, I frickin LOVE that video!!!!!!
