Cried happy tears to hear the music again with an amazing singer who I also wanted to see. Freddie is Freddie…the one and only. Adam is also Adam…the one and only. What a world to hear this great music with both vocalists. Goosebump chills.

    I'm 68 and have seen all the greats. I watched only one season of American Idol (2008) BECAUSE of Adam. When he first stepped onto stage at the auditions (with Bohemian Rhapsody no less) I was hooked. He has the most amazing voice I have ever heard (other than Babs of course). And he's actually a NICE guy! Plus he has some really great looks. Freddie would be proud. He does him justice while staying true to himself. Adam is truly amazing - a gift from the heavens!

I have seen them twice (and Adam solo once) and ended up tearing up during this song both times. There is so much that transcends the screen with Adam, yet still some things that can't.

Walt Disney actually tried to hire her to be the voice of Snow White, but she was busy with a career and a small child, my half sister, who is now 92. Toscanini compared her voice to that of the great Lily Pons. My lullabies were from the most incredible soprano voice you could imagine. She spent a good deal of time trying to train my voice, but I was young and silly, plus I had my Dad's pleasant voice, not hers. She wanted to be my manager. I really appreciate what you do and enjoy that you share your knowledge with the masses, ... uh, most of us, who learn to appreciate a gift where it exists from your talents.

WHEN is he ever going to be given the adulation he deserves? I am not surprised that Brian and Roger gave him this chance to tour with them; they saw exactly what all of his fans saw, an amazingly talented young man!

    Freddie is everything everyone has ever said about him. He is greatness personified. A legitimate grand master of the musical arts. He will be globally missed for as long as music is available to the world. Adam Lambert is criminally overlooked as a vocalist and performer. The underestimation of this singing phenomenon is simply wrong and grossly unjust. I thank Brian & Roger so very much for appreciating this 'Queen' as much as you do because he is so very, very deserving of fronting this calibre of band. Like Brian & Roger, I, too, believe that Freddie would not just love Adam as a singer, but would be truly proud that he was the singer they chose to share with the world his life through singing and performing. Adam Lambert is as much a part of Queen as Freddie Mercury was..... Just in a different way. It was Brian May & Roger Taylor that accepted Freddie Mercury into their close-knit bond, and they also accepted Adam Lambert, and they were both the best decisions they could have ever made. I miss John Deacon, and I hope one day that he may find a way to play once more with the band that he helped forge. Queen....... The greatest creators of music I've ever heard in my lifetime thus far. Til the day I die, I will listen, love, and feel their music.
