I just watched the YT clips from the Moscow show and my favorite songs that I think work the best for them when they perform together are:
1. I Want It All.
2. Who Wants To Live Forever.
3. Under Pressure
4. Seven Seas of Rhye.
5. We Are The Champions.
In that order Which one is your trinity?
Also can the Twitter Glamberts stop making attendance numbers up? On Saturday they said there were half a million people on the Kiev's concert And now 80k in Moscow inside a 25k venue? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic...m_%28Moscow%29
500,000 in Kiev is wrong. There is no need to exaggerate the audience. I do think it was said after Kiev, the audience was 250,000. At the very least, organizers did need to expand the space the day before. Only 25k in Moscow. I saw people quoting 80k. The picture of the audience looked impression anyways.
Adam was much looser in Moscow.
1. Who Wants To Live Forever
2. Under Pressure
3. Another Bites The Dust/ I Want To Break Free
I liked Somebody To Love in Moscow much better than Kiev. And Bo Rhap, cause I can't get enough of Freddie and Adam singing "together". And I think he might be singing Who Wants to Live Forever in the original key. I still don't like Fat Bottomed Girls. And I still want Killer Queen.
I'm not sure how I feel about Adam's Somebody To Love cause he keeps doing his vocal acrobatics and I'm not sure it fits a Queen concert. Don't get me wrong I love it when he does it in his own concerts but I think it puts the spotlight on him way too much.
Yeah I think too he's singing WWTLF in the same key, something that Freddie wasn't able to do but it's not like the hardcore Queen fans would admit that

Can't wait for Saturday for the next show
25k is impressive. 55k even more so, which is what the audience was according to a review.
Adam's vocal acrobatics are predictable, sometimes. If you watch enough of his performances you know what its coming. Somebody To Love is one of my personal all time favs and I wish just once he would sing it straight. Sorry Adam. But I don't expect him to because that's his thing. Certain Queen stans should go look at Wembley or Rock in Rio, Freddie voice was shot and he was struggling on I Want To Break Free for eg. They are very much rabid dogs about Adam now, which is expected. I've seen some minds changed from Queen fans. They hated Paul Rodgers at the start too, so maybe in 5 years or so they look back and say Adam did good. Or not, who knows, some still don't like Paul Rodgers
Press Conference from Poland. Basically, Brian, Roger and Adam are in love with each other.
I've seen Freddie's vocal performance at Wembley. Adam does a much better job with that song.
I've seen many positive reactions and some quite negative too but like you said it's still a new idea in people's minds and the backwards mentality some of them have makes them hold on to Freddie's image at his prime. Though I admit Freddie was much better at interacting with the audience than Adam is but Adam is still gathering experience. He's been famous for just 3 years.
Seeing as Adam will be back to the US on the 2nd half of this month I hope he starts promoting his album again I'm not completely hopeless. I feel like RCA is a damn fool if they don't make any of his singles happen.

Maybe by then they can move on to the next single as that Never Close Our Eyes isn't going to take off. What do you gurls think the third single should be?
But the promo could be useful into reviving Never Close Our Eyes on radio. We'll see. But I honestly doubt RCA is going to do promo for him.

Nothing was wrong with NCOE in my opinion so they should still try to make it happen. I don't know how but somehow
GOD this duet is so flawless. Everyone check it out.
Yes, Adam give me those E5's. I love Under Pressure in Kiev so much. There is a fan video from Kiev where you can literally see Roger going, "yessssssss" when Adam hit that long note.
The next single should be Cuckoo, but it will be in name only. I doubt there will be any support for it. There is nothing wrong with NCOE as a single though. This was the song that PD picked when asked out of Trespassing, Naked Love, Cuckoo, and NCOE. I don't know what RCA is going to do if anything about this single. I do think the UK will get Cuckoo, so maybe we have to wait until then. Or maybe RCA is waiting to see how NCOE does in the UK. Who knows what RCA is thinking.
The album is getting not bad/good reviews in the UK
Eyebrows were raised when Adam Lambert, runner-up in the 2009 series of American Idol, secured the Queen singer’s job in February, but he has his own career too. Trespassing is his second album of impossibly perky, relentless electropop which, Lambert claimed, made him the first openly gay solo artist to top the American album charts. It outstays its welcome over 17 not entirely dissimilar tracks, but there are moments to treasure, not least the flag-waving Runnin’ and the Bruno Mars-helmed Never Close Our Eyes. Best of all though is the eye-popping, finger-clicking title track: it’s Pharrell Williams of The Neptunes’ best work in years and nothing here comes close to eclipsing it. JOHN AIZLEWOOD
Trespassing is released today in Ireland, so those Irish stans can upload Map any second, please and thank you. iTunes preview

Lunch with the mayor & heard the Polish press said Queen performing in Wroclaw is the most important cultural event since the Germans left!

I hope so too!

They also need to do something about the live performances of that song. Remember how WWFM live at American Idol gave the song a huge boost? This time when he performed NCOE absolutely nothing happened, in fact I saw some people write online "What happened to his voice?". What's clear is that they need to think of something, like a feature or idk. I'm normally not a fan of desperation but I don't want this era to go to waste.
