    1. Adam doesn’t fill Freddie’s shoes, he brings his own. Brian & Roger LOVE Adam and vice versa. They have said many times he is a Gift from God and he can hit notes they didn’t even know existed. Also, they feel strongly that Freddie would not approve of Adam, but he would also be envious of his vocals. Their collaboration works very well.

    1. I first heard this song when “A Night at the Opera” came out in the mid ’70s, I got to hear it live at Madison Square Garden, twice, in the early ’80s. It will never get old!

    1. @Mark Brantner there was no attempt. It was a perfect example of owning the song. I guess you have never heard of soul music.

  1. What I LOVE about Adam, besides that voice, is he is NOT trying to BE Freddie, he’s being himself and doing the songs justice. THE BEST!

    1. @saigonbond MM doesn’t have the charisma or stage presence to pull it off. Plus he is butt ugly. You can always depend on MM fans trolling these videos. It’s really quite sad. Brian & Roger have said MANY times they wouldn’t want a Freddie impersonator singing in the band as it would be disrespectful to Freddie’s legacy.

  2. Hearing Bohemian Rhapsody still *”Sends shivers down my spine”!* Thank you, Queen!!!
    💜💜💜💜😁💜💜💜💜

    1. @Suzy Q, Greetings Internet Friend! Fun story about the song Bohemian Rhapsody. Once upon a time I played this song on the piano during the offertory in a church. Sans lyrics to be sure!
      Afterward, people were praising the beauty of that ‘classical’ song up & down the aisles! I thought my poor little brother would stroke out trying to hold in the laughter!
      Blessings friend & Beware the Trolls! 🌹☮✌🎈🤡😎

  3. Yes there will never be another Freddie, but Adam Lambert is amazing, what a voice. Thank you MSNBC FOR AN UNFORGETTABLE evening with Carole King, Queen etc….

  4. “When I’m dead, I want to be remembered as a musician of some worth and substance. I won’t be a rock star. I will be a legend.”
    – Freddie Mercury 🎙️ A legend indeed!

    1. @Leave me alone Well said! Beware the Trolls have all come out from under their bridges with all of the videos of this Event of which they know zero! Here’s one, that rolled my eyes in the nether zone,
      “Is hunter Biden a citizen of {sic} *the* Ukraine?” 😵😎🎈🤡🔥🤘💨💨💨

  5. I’m just so impressed how many kids are singing along to Queen. They are lucky to be in the presence of rock’n’roll royalty.

    1. I was thinking the exact same thing every time the camera panned out into the audience. Nobody from our generation, but just the kids. WoW!

  6. Hate adam all you want. But you have to admit it. Without adam this crowd wouldn’t exist. Come at me marc martel trolls.
