Brian May Compliments Adam Lambert In Two Media Interviews

Maggie Meets ... BRIAN MAY


Brian May speaks with British journalist and interviewer Maggie Lee as part of her Maggie Meets collection of interviews with famous musicians, performers, artists and the like.  During the interview, she asks Brian about Adam Lambert, whom she mistakenly quotes Brian as having previously referred to his joining Queen as "...an act of God..." to which Brian immediately corrects as "...a gift from God."  Thanks to Gelly for excising the clip about Adam from the original interview and posting it on YouTube, and to our reader Nanbert for the find.


If you would like to listen to the complete interview, which is subtitled "Brian May: Rock's Polymath," you may do so here on Spotify (free account setup if you don't already have it).

EXPRESS (UK): "Queen's Brian May gives his verdict on Adam Lambert replacing Freddie Mercury"


"He’s a born rock star and frontman, so it’s a very vibrant relationship we have with him.  We treat Adam exactly the same as we treated Freddie in almost every way. ... Adam can do all the stuff that Freddie did and more. It doesn’t matter what you throw at Adam — he can do it."

Aww Brian, saying the sweetest things about Adam! All true that Adam was born to be a Rock Star and an amazing Showman. I really love him calling Adam his "brother".

No wonder! Queen and Adam Lambert are kindred spirits....superb talents that match and enhance each other...each absolutely essential for the whole...an unequaled brotherhood! What a joy performing together seems to be for them!...at the top of their game! We're so lucky to be able to experience their magic.

Can't get that second interview link to open, but anyway, I love it when Brian (and Roger) so lovingly praise Adam. The best part is when they say that, besides his vocal talents, he is simply a real good person.

Hi Dee! I just double-checked the link to the Express article and it does work for me, both on my desktop and mobile. Wonder why it doesn't for you. 🤔

Brian what a lovely kind soul he is, and what a fantastic relationship he has with Adam, as he says Adam's "a gift from God" certainly is !!

I thank Adam from the bottom of my heart got introducing me to Brian May. Brian is a wonderful human being, full of talent and compassion and gentleness. He is one of the many gifts that Adam has given to me since 2009. Little did I know!
