    @DrBrianMay
    shared with us a story from tonight in Boston 2nd show behind “Somebody To Love”, what he said to
    @adamlambert
    how to sing when they invite the audience to complete the line. “Somebody tooooooo” It worked, Brian says Adam laughed and said “It worked !”. Brian is so full of praise for Adam and his voice!

    This makes me smile – because this clip from tonight’s show in the Boston Garden has a little story embedded in it. It’s the result one of those small adjustments that we constantly look for, to maximise the show. Adam sings our songs in his own unique way, bringing in lots of new ideas and adding sometimes amazing extensions of the vocal lines. ‘Somebody to Love’ is a great example of this – in which Adam truly delivers a tour de force every night. Well, there’s one point in the song which all our fans know very well, where the music stops and, in a tradition which goes right back to Freddie, we invite the audience to complete the line. “Somebody tooooooo ?” Well Adam has for a while extended that “tooo” in a way which added extra sparkle … you can check it out in recordings of previous nights on the tour. But the audience generally sounded uncertain about how they should sing that line … and I figured that this was because the cue was altered – it wasn’t the way it is on the original studio recording. It perhaps seemed to resolve the phrase too. So I suggested to Adam that, as an experiment, he might try singing the end of the line completely straight, to give a clear cue to the audience. He tried it for the first time tonight, and this is the result. So at the beginning of this clip, you see me listening very intently to what might happen. As soon as we heard the response we knew ! So that’s why I am saying to Adam with a smile, “Not bad!” – and he’s laughing and saying “It worked !”. Then, in his happiness, he embarks on a supercharged series of improvised lines over the coda of the song. Yes, he generally does improvise here over those descending lines … but this time he’s going stratospheric ! He’s wailing in full voice – not falsetto – way up to a high “E” with such power and passion and fluidity that I challenge you to name anyone else who could come close to what he’s doing. So in my face you see my admiration and enjoyment of this moment – in which we’re all clearly finding a new joy !!! So thanks @davalliana.3d for this chance to share a tiny piece of the internal workings of QAL. Bri

    A part of me wants this tour to keep going forever – and then another part of me can’t wait for Adam to be back in the studio recording his own music. The dual nature of this man

    Had the privilege to see Queen tonight. Arguably my favorite band, and IMO, the greatest guitar player in Brian May. Adam Lambert is phenomenal. Really epitomizes the soul of Freddie and continues his spirit. Great to have my dad there to see it. I’ve loved Queen since I was 10.

    I challenge anyone to sing Queen’s anthems (plus their emotive songs) in key, in a full, projective voice w full 2.75 octave range, for two hours without losing consciousness. They’re really difficult songs to sing without becoming breathless. Adam Lambert totally nails it LIVE!
