Adam doesn’t remind me of Elvis P. at all. I agree with @NickNack that Adam has a much better voice. They both command the stage and they both have the blue eyes that draw you in. Adam’s eyes just slay me. I think he should try film because he has so much charisma. I did watch the special. I was in a different place when Queen was in its heyday and was pretty unaware of them, so i found the snippets fascinating. i saw snippets of Live Aid at the time and I wasn’t enamored of them. Reminded me of Woodstock etc. Seems over time my rock self has emerged and i love their music. I lost Adam L. quite a while after his awards show debacle. As apparently did all of the networks. Adam was out to prove something i expect despite him saying it wasn’t planned and it just happened. I wonder why the ABC piece. Are they moving him into a more middle of the,road spot so they can move him into something???

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhh

Wonder why Freddy never got his teeth fixed. Been better looking.

There is a scene in "Bohemian Rhapsody" where the band is giving a press conference. One of the reporters asks him why he does not get his teeth fixed and he says something to the effect "then I won't blend in with the rest of England."

With the extra teeth throughout his upper jaw his palette was oversized. I think he was right that it might have changed his voice to have monkeyed with it. And besides it would have been significant dental work too at the time.

I saw it and loved every minute of it. I loved Freddie back then and Adam was a good choice to ‘ interpret’ Freddie’s songs.

I always thought Adam should have won, but it’s good he didn’t.

I have something on my collection of ‘sayings’ that really fits Adam Lambert’s situation with American Idol. Here it is:

“If you ask GOD for help, you might not get what you want; but you will get what you need.”

THAT fits what happened to Adam Lambert.

The Queen documentary special was great- it included the periiod after Freddie's death- his memorial a year later - and their tour with Paul Rodgers as well. All part of their journey to Adam Lambert! When they performed with Adam on the AI finale- it was magic! Brian May even said they tried not to show favortism- but their connection was evident.

I never saw Queen with Freddie. I did see Queen with Paul Rodgers, great show but it missed the energy that I imagine Freddie would have provided. Queen with Adam is electric!! I've seen their show 3x.
