"Queen provided a sense of nostalgia and youthful enthusiasm"
(original http://www.savonsanomat.fi/kulttuuri/Queen-tarjosi-nostalgiaa-ja-nuoruuden-intoa/778659?pwbi=41e49902d459b09dd541d008216a6682)

the presence of the British band Queen in Helsinki attracted two big questions in advance. How to singer Adam Lambert meets in 1991 the deceased Freddie Mercury's boots, and what kind of band founded in 1971 by Queen today?

On paper, the Federal seem strange, since the 34-year-old Lambert has become familiar to American Idol competition after the lighter genre of pop stars, and on the other hand is a Queen for a long time served as a middle-aged nostalgia do not satisfactory in its own production a cover band.

Worldwide co-operation has, however, garnered praise, and also consulted a concert in Helsinki showed a combination of a functional. Originally When answered the question briefly Lambert was excellent and the band vibrant.

Anyone Queen songs in karaoke tried to know that the band's vocals are more challenging. Mercury's voice was in many ways unique, and many of the songs are moving altitudes, which based singer will never be maintained.

However, Lambert showed himself to be both technically competent and sound area of ​​more than suitable to present Queen songs. In addition, the man is a sufficient number of men, and show rockkukkoilua to make a proposal energetic. Mercury machismo of course, turned into a reading Lambert instead of flirting, and the sound is the sound of the original presenter softer, but as Lambert himself recalled the presentation, there is only one Freddie Mercury.

Lambert's self-esteem is clearly in place, it takes a lot of guts to sing between the projected video with the Mercury's turn. Lambert wore a crown so well that the Mercury shares, of a minor nature, could have left out more boldly.

But nostalgianälkäähän was satisfied with this, and in that sense vilautteleminen screens Mercury was justified. For the same reason, it can be justified that the guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor will continue the presentation of the old Queen song name.

Circulating through performing more than one of Queen's music, clever tribute band - one held last year in Kuopio - but Maylle and Taylor swamp happy with the band circumvention. For many, the Queen was Freddie Mercury's band, but it is good to remember that originally just May and Taylor established the assembly, who became Queen. Men clearly still enjoy cooperation after 45 vuodenkin.

The second criterion is the continuation of the Queen by the fact that the band did not present a large part of the biggest hiteistään the original line. Mercury-fashioned Queen left a live performance venues already in 1986, and five years later, weakened by AIDS, Mercury died of pneumonia.

During the remaining years between Queen released two significant records, The Miracle (1989) and Innuendo (1991), which was recorded in the name of the songs in addition to features such hits as The Show Must Go On, I Want It All and These Are The Days Of Our Lives.

When the Queen visited most recently performing in Finland in November 1974, the situation was very different. The show venue was the House of Culture, and not three years aiemminperustettu band had many people not familiar to Finnish. History The show charted Finland Live in Finland According to the book the band at the time was followed by mass of only 670 spectators.

Now the band was followed by mass Kaisaniemi Park 25 000 people. During the nearly two-hour show heard cross-section of the band's hits from the Seven Seas Of Rhyestä Fat Bottomed Girl SEPARATE. The crowd sang along obediently, among other things, Bohemian Rapsody, Radio Ga Gan, during the I Want It Allin and Somebody To Love.

Tapering of the evening was heard interpreted by Brian May Love Of My Life, during which Freddie was also consulted on the video. Surprising bet was presented by Roger Taylor, These Are The Days Of Our Lives, which sounded like a good drummer shown raspisella voice. Taylor and Lambert duet Under Pressure was lovely nod to the recently deceased David Bowie's direction.

Taylor and May made both also instrumental solos, which could politely say that a little shorter piece would have been enough - even though May's theme played by Back To The Light -soololevyltä course symppis was avaruusteemoineen.

Nostalgia and enthusiasm of young people offered the concert certainly caused a few mielensäpahoittajalle also disappointing. Lambert was not the reincarnation of Mercury and the rest of the guys were getting older. And that May rang in at least one solo wrong.

However, the new Queen's cock rock Lambert proved to be the right man in place.
