Adam Lambert & American Idol!

[_Gentleman of_the Snow_]

razoredge, and anybody else interested in Adam's emotional/feeling-filled side, please check out his live version of "If I Can't Have You" - I posted a link to the version in HD in my post above. It's a fantastic vocal... one of my favourites of all time.

That was good, I was sitting here expecting to hear the disco version thinking how can that ever be moving. I'd like to hear somebody do Darrel Halls remake of Shes Gone, way better than the first version, vocally it was a 10. Not that it would fit the disco thing they were doing. This guy could do a killer job of Steehearts Shes Gone too. I just didnt like him messing with Plants phrasing on some of Whole Lotta Love, still Im sure he did it better live than Plant ever did, talk about someone messing with the melodies and phrasing, Plant always failed live on anything I've heard.

I think winning American Idol is a curse, frankly. This guy didnt need it, just song writing creativity and he'll be on his way.

Speaking of Zepp II, my buddies band played "What Is and What Should Never Be" this past Sat night at a gig and slayed it, wound me right tight. Never forget the first time I heard that song, havent been the same since.........

I like the original melodies of the disco version. Aside from him getting all yelly and everything, I wasn't really into his version.

There shouldn't be a new front man for queen, fuck you all.

+1

never liked that fast intensive vibrato I heard in his voice on that one.

This pretty much sums up the total of my opinions on this one. Also, I am back from Europe.

fronting queen doesn't take away from the raw talent this man has. Thats like having Russell Allen be the lead singer for the backstreet boys.

 

[razoredge]

I think that would be WAY over the line Proul

 

[proulxski]

it is, but I think sometimes you have to go to extremes to make people understand lol. This thread was more about realizing someone with talent, not bashing someone because they might, or might not front queen lol

 

[Beelzebub]

Maybe Ripper Owens should front Queen.

Maybe Ripper Owens should front Queen.

Absolutely not! (imo)

James LaBrie?

Glad you liked it, Razor.

What's with all the hate? I have nothing but respect for the people on idol because they have pure talent. Sure, the show itself commands little respect, but the contestants are still talented and deserve what they earn from the show. I can't imagine what kind of hell they go through, throughout an entire Idol season. Must be some of the hardest, and ballsiest times for anybody to go through.

Maybe Ripper Owens should front Queen.

I too watched Idol for the sole purpose of Adam. Mad World was brilliant:
