The music of Queen is still
Chronicle of the May 22 concert at Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona of the legendary band, now with the voice of Adam Lambert replacing Freddie Mercury
The band formed by two Queen members Brian May and Roger Taylor and singer Adam Lambert (Queen + Adam Lambert) on Sunday visited the Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona to give the second concert of the summer tour of several European countries which began Friday 20 May at Lisbon's Rock in Rio was held in the Portuguese capital.
After several tours and concerts with voices like Elton John or Paul Rodgers, May and Taylor have returned to Barcelona, this time with Adam Lambert, singer met while participating in the program American Idol in 2009. I have responded that the Queen fans wondered for years: how can you live without a show of soul group Queen, Freddie Mercury?
This Sunday at St. George Taylor, May and Lambert showed, seeing the reactions of the public, a live concert as well as be a tribute to Freddie Mercury doing what they do and how they do it. With the first notes of the soundtrack to Flash Gordon and a song from the same album, The Hero, opened the concert, which lasted almost two hours, while the club was taking the Copa del Rey against Sevilla.
Rock continues as
The show continued with some rock songs: Hammer to Fall, Seven Seas of Rhye and Stone Cold Crazy, change log Fat Bottomed Girls and Play The Game, while the audience sang and jumped track Lambert. A mode armchair throne was the scene where Adam Lambert sang there Killer Queen, before reaching a classic of classics: I want to break free followed by Somebody to love.
Brian May continued to sing Love of my life with final surprise: Freddie Mercury to giant screens to sing the last verse. Ovation before Roger Taylor sang These are the days of our lives while the screens they could see pictures of the original Queen with Mercury and Deacon, and all very young. Taylor then continued with the same Drum Battle, a series of demonstrations battery between him and his son Rufus Tiger Taylor.
It seemed that no finished songs, and the repertoire of Queen could not finish ever: Under Pressure, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, and again, another classic that everyone knows, Do not Stop Me Now . Another One Bites the Dust allowed the brilliance of the bear following them, it was not John Deacon, retired since the death of Freddie Mercury and with no intention of returning to the stage. I Want It All power returned to the stage before entering with Who Wants To Live Forever and solos of Brian May: Last Horizon and Guitar Solo, who stopped to hear the sound of the guitar Red Special, built by Brian May himself.
Straight with big "hits"
Check the final concert, Tie Your Mother Down the environment and encouraged continued The Show Must Go On and two classic that could not miss: first Bohemian Rhapsody, with part of the song as the video screens and Radio Ga Ga, sung between Lambert and the public. A rapid retreat continued with a concert that closes the encores and at this point everyone knew what songs they carry, the two major hits We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions. The last ovation they take while they sounded, recorded the version of God Save the Queen group.
The concert left a general feeling of satisfaction among those who attended: Adam Lambert is much more height than those who have tried to occupy the space left by Freddie Mercury and also understands that it can not be replacement. So, put the audience in his pocket when he said that there could be only one Freddie. "Ever." For his part, Brian May and Roger Taylor carry off an important part of leadership, but still the gap left by bassist, John Deacon.
A show, then, is not Queen, but Queen + Adam Lambert. Some fans criticize you continue to use the name of Queen, but everyone is aware by now that the chances to see Queen live were sold for many years and if they want to continue enjoying their music, the best option have is the success of may and Taylor to find a singer that can accompany. I seem to have right now.
