@adamlambert: "Saw this on the wall on our way in! Back w @officialqueenmusic at Belfast’s SSE Arena ! Last time was 2011 for the EMAs! #mtvema #qal"
BONUS! Watch Adam's performance with Queen back on November 6, 2011 in the embedded video below! Plus a little background info about the reason they were there.....
Description from a Rolling Stone article LINK HERE from 2014 of the 2011 EMA performance by Queen with Adam Lambert, in advance of a Queen + Adam Lambert world tour:
"When the 2011 EMAs ended with a salute to Freddie Mercury (as Queen were honored with the Global Icon Award), Brian May and Roger Taylor reunited with a special surprise guest: yes, Adam Lambert, doing Freddie proud and delivering one of the best vocals of his career. Adam and Queen blasted through a medley of "The Show Must Go On," "We Will Rock You," and "We Are the Champions"... and it was a performance of champions, indeed. Many European viewers were unfamiliar with the American Idol alum, but were understandably wowed and eager to see more. Suddenly and unsurprisingly, there was demand for a new Queen world tour..."
I'm in love with Adam's 2011 performance in Belfast.
ReplyDeleteHow anyone could hear this performance and NOT become an Adam fan is beyond my comprehension.
ReplyDeleteWonderful, I thought this video was gone forever..... but it is found on VIMEO!...hurray! However, THIS video, though the same one, is a bit foggy and the sound is not as crystal clear. Maybe that's caused by many recopies being done.
ReplyDeleteAdam and Queen were superb together...even on that first outing. After that, there could have been NO doubt that Adam could sing the Queen repertroire...and do it justice!
But today, Adam has outpaced that early promise many times over! He is SO seasoned now, SO Queen....SO perfect in that role!
And the Show did go on and we are so very thankful for the results. Which it could go forever--
