No.
When Glamberace sang with Queen during the American Idol finale, a storm of sequins filled my living room and I actually enjoyed it (blame the good shit). It wasn't hard for me to embrace it, because I figured it was just a one night stand. They all licked each other's nalgas, everyone came glitter and then they skipped off back to their lives. Or did they?
Brian May is now telling Rolling Stone that Queen and Glamberace might rendezvous again..... I think that's our cue to go out to the desert and stick our heads in the sand so we don't have to witness this epic fuckery.
Brian said, “Amongst all that furor, there wasn’t really a quiet moment to talk. But [drummer Roger Taylor] and I are definitely hoping to have a meaningful conversation with him at some point. It’s not like we, as Queen, would rush into coalescing with another singer just like that. It isn’t that easy. But I’d certainly like to work with Adam. That is one amazing instrument he has there.”
Didn't they learn anything from the whole Paul Rodgers thing?! I'd rather Queen just stick a cardboard cutout of Freddie Mercury on stage than bring Glamberace into the band full-time. There's only one true QUEEN in QUEEN and that is that glorious unicorn known as Freddie Mercury!

I know far less about Queen than many of you. But they still were a rock/pop band, trying to sell records and tickets. If they were only innit for the art, they would have given all the money away. Freddie died in a mansion, right? So I don't think it's a crime if some of the surviving members choose to keep trying to make money from their life-long jobs.
Again, I don't know the deets, but Freddie or his heirs presumably signed off on Wayne's World and every other use of the name and catalog.
Gary Numan is the only fucker who can dress like this on stage.

Queen lost its damn reputation over the years because of BULLSHIT like this. They allow the music to be shared on fucking commericals, for fucking CRUISES, and lets them freely be used on American Idol. I DOUBT HIGHLY DOUBT...Freddie would find that shit acceptable! John Deacon left for a reason! Now they want some kid to "replace" the greatest vocalist of our time!
This shit is not even funny!

I agree with everyone that there is or never will be anyone like Freddy again. Freddy was amazing; I wish I could go back in time and hang out with him for a day. The Logo channel had a special where they aired some of his home videos and had some of his friends speaking about him. He seemed like a genuine person that truly loved life. Plus, he also apparently liked cats so of course I love him even more.
Adam who?

When Christina performs she has a live band behind her. She insist on it. The only time she lip syncs is when 1) she wants to save her voice when she has to hit the high notes or 2) she feels her voice isn't strong enough to perform live for whatever reason or 3) she's told to (she performed at the Winter Olypics in '02 was told to lip, because it was '"too cold" to sing live.)

I'm actually 100% ok with this.
Paul Rodgers is an excellent singer (and still rocks a pair of leather pants, even in his 50s) but he should have stayed with Bad Company. Queen is not Queen without Freddie Mercury. And this guy...? It's a bad joke, isn't it?

I hate everything about this guy. How old is he really? He looks closer to 40 than 27.
Freddie Mercury had a four octave voice that even a lot of trained opera singers can't achieve. That man is my absolute idol and no one can touch him. However, I think this AI guy (I only watched the finale this year) would be better than the Sammy Hagar wannabe they have now.

Great post! No it is never off-topic to say that Rush rules! I saw them in '82 or '83. Fucking amazing show!
I was also lucky enough to see Queen in '77 and '78. And NOBODY can replace Freddie. While I feel for Brian and Roger who have a huge catalogue of great music, and no Freddy to sing it, surely they don't NEED to tour, do they?
Brian is an Astrophysisist, BTW.
And YES, music today, (for the most part), sucks so bad, that there is a demand for the rock of the past.

Is it off topic to say Rush rules? Where else could you find 3 people so uniquely fit to take their part is this group. Geddes sings, plays base, and play the synth with his feet. If he had to, he could probably play the sax with his butt. I can't even tie my shoes when i'm on the phone withing tying my thumbs together.
So, that being said, there is a unique chemistry with a group of pouple that creates a synergy. if they want to do independant stuff, fine. But Freddie MADE Queen. He couldn't have done it without the other three, especially Brian who is a much better songwriter than Freddie was (sorry). IMHO John Deacon is the only one who'se taken the high road on this by retiring to the home for aged rock stars.
One of the big problems here is that modern music sucks ass so much that we keep looking to these old farts to give us the music we need to live.
But I agree with MK. Sussinct and to the point: NO!

*Yeah.. and his singing isnt bad either*
Nobody can touch Dear Freddie, IMO, but I would be curious to hear an Adam/Queen collaboration (I missed it on AI and am now cursing myself). Just so long as it didn't become a regular gig. Freddie Mercury can NEVER be replaced.

Still want to see them when they come to VA- never had the chance (or someone to go with)
I know it'll be like Nirvana- always wishing I couldve made it to a show before Kurt killed himself.
You know, that reminds me of soemthing- Nirvana never sought to replace Kurt.. they all had talente( lol) to go forth and sprout new careers.. why couldnt the members in Queen do the same?

Great pic!
it's sad that a band is defined by the lead singer.
Do people like Xtina and Shitney even HAVE a band or is it all prerecorded tracks?
god forbid anything even happends to Neil Peart or Geddy Lee.... neil may not be lead singer however he does write the majority of the songs, so, in that situation, how COULD Rush ever go on if one of the 3 members was lost?
sorry- I like Rush a lot... reminds me of my brother, who is a drummer.

Thanks for NICELY pointing out I was wrong (not like some). The way they butchered "We Are The Champions", it's no wonder I forgot seeing QUEEN was there too.
Freddie Mercury is & will always be a rock legend, he could be any persona on stage and no one came close to sounding like Queen. They were rock, metal, glam rock, just overwhelming original, no one sounded like them and they didn't sound like anyone else. But Freddie is dead, they aren't replacing him. Queen's music had such a vast fusion of styles that it would be interesting to hear different interpretations. There will never be another Freddie Mercury, but I'm not opposed to hearing different versions of their work.

MO ONE NO ONE NO ONE could ever replace Freddie. But if the rest of Queen members want him to sing with them for a bit, what do I care? Adam is cute & talented, THOUGH NOTHING LIKE FREDDIE, and I'm sure they would have fun. I doubt he would take it on as a regular gig and I also doubt Queen wants a full-time job. Those boys are old. Didn't Brian May just get a doctorate in Astrophysics? I hope they have fun. NO ONE will ever replace the untouchable talent of Freddie Mercury. I love him.
And Adamsgurl is quite a dolt. Hahahaha.

Glamerace should first bestow his studded mace on MK's no-no, just because then we'd hear about it for weeks. Although je suspect it would be like two Vons delivery vans beeping into each other. Then he should so do an album with Queen and a victory tour and show all the little HSM's with Disney phones what a real singer is all about.
Wow, I completely forgot about Kris singing with Queen too. And now that I recall I can forget it again because he just couldn't keep up.
Adam did, IMHO. He was good with KISS too.

I can understand both sides of the argument but personally, I think Adam would be perfect if they ever decide to recast “La Cage Aux Folles”.
And here's Adam w/KISS:

Hey guys, kinda new here.
I love Queen more than life itself and am bummed beyond belief that I will never get to see them in concert. However, with much luv to Brian and Roger, every time I see somthing like this it makes my nipples invert into my body and I have to use my blow-dryer to get them to come back out. There was something about Freddie that transcended talent or skill or even charisma. He was one with the audience. See how short everyone falls is just pathetic in my opinion.
Adam is similar in many respects, especially range and flamboyance. If he wanted to do a tribute thing once that would be fine. But to have him front for the band is like wanking with a marshmallow dildo, it works for about half a second and then you realize fluff ain't all that satisfying.

I hear you, DAE. That's why I don't go to reunion concerts. It's depressing to see middle-aged rock musicians with pot bellies and bald spots.
But Queen prolly wants to stay active, earn some bucks, keep their catalog alive.
