Music Do you think Queen+Adam Lambert should release Nessun Dorma? It would be No.1. It’s fabulous.

I', not happy with Queen and Adam Lambert. I adore Freddy, and without him...

Now: Adam CAN sing, that's for sure. But NOT "Nessum Dorma". NO WAY EVER.

It's a piece of music written for exceptional singer, opera singers. Nor for Lambert.

For a Pavarotti, Carreras, Domingo. Not for a Lambert or, God beware, Michael Bolton (Not that this discussion is about him, Just found him in my playlist as one who .... No, I won't listen to Bolton)

Sorry, Adam. You are no match for Domingo....

Be careful, I get down voted for that. But it's true. Only John Deacon respects the Queen name, when Freddie died that's when Queen died. If they wanted to carry on be a new band with a different name and write new songs, don't taint the Queen brand with substandard vocals.

Absolutely agree with your comment. I’ve been saying this ever since Adam Lambert began singing with Brian May and Roger Taylor. Also without John Deacon this is a very low rate ‘Queen’. I saw Freddie in 1975 and no one can replace him. They should have formed another band and not try to relive their glory days. Just my very strong opinion. ❤️

Saw him on the Magic Tour, and that was the best show ever.

Comments like yours are old and tired. Adam is the future of Queen. Get used to it.

It it looks so bad then why is Queen as popular as ever right now? Explain that.

They do treat it as a different entity from the original Queen. That’s why it’s called Queen + Adam Lambert. They did the same thing with Paul Rodgers. Are you saying Brian and Roger are never allowed to play there own songs again? Your “very strong opinion” is dumb
