Big shout to Adam Lambert too. People will say he’s not Freddie etc but he proved tonight he’s brilliant in his own right #Queen
Sports writer at Evening Chronicle in Newcastle.
While waiting for vids I watched the clip from Idol with Adam’s “reaudition” for Harry and JLo. OMFG, that was breathtaking! We have gotten used to the big productions of the Queen songs since he has been performing with them, but that acoustic snippet was just so sweet and pure and beautiful, I just had to listen over and over again.
And BTW the video was blocked here, so thanks ron for helping make it so that I can see American TV vids.

“Lambert returned again to deliver on a balcony-like ridge on the stage edge equal to the absolute highlight: the The Game Classic Save Me.”
