Queen

ce vorbesti ma acolo? Daca esti de parere ca muzica lor suna mai bine cu Paul Rodgers ca solist atunci nu-ti place Queen cu adevarat - cel putin nu fara schimbarea asta DRASTICA

Eu sint fan Queen, am crescut cu ei ...dar asta nu ma impiedica sa fiu obiectiv. Ma surpinde reactia ta usor violenta . .. Ce vorbesc ? Pai eu I-AM VAZUT in concert in ambele componente. Tu i-ai vazut ? CA de pe un mp3 iti dai seama greu de diferenta ...

PAUL IS THE NEW CHAMP OF ROCK

Teesside Evening Gazette

4 May 2005

REVIEWS:

What: Queen and Paul Rodgers

Where: MetroRadio Arena, Newcastle

When: Last night

Verdict: Sheer magic

by KEITH NEWTON

They came to rock us and they certainly did. Queen have always been the champions for me and the Boro's Paul Rodgers was all right then and now.

Put together, they formed an incendiary combination that exploded on to the British leg of their first tour together before the waving, stamping, clapping cheering all-age crowds at an excited and delighted Arena.

The glorious songs lived again in all their majesty and it as great to see Paul, the lad from Grove Hill, showing his affiliations by singing We Are The Champions in a red shirt.

He makes no attempt to be Freddie Mercury. He is a rock god in his own right with his own glorious songs and he added a freshness and vigour to theirs.

Da, i-am vazut... desi cred ca imaginile vizuale nu fac o diferenta asa de mare. Paul Rodgers schimba prea mult sound-ul trupei, si ...nu e bine. Nu mai e Queen. El canta bine, si sa cante cum vrea, dar la el acasa Nu stiu de ce spui ca nu au avut un sound veritabil de group rock pana sa cante cu Rodgers, Freddie avea mai mult stil (presupunand ca are importanta), si o voce care mergea de minune cu instrumentatia...

QUEEN ARE IN GREAT VOICE

QUEEN + PAUL RODGERS, NEC MAY 6TH.

Queen without Freddie Mercury might seem, on paper, a brazen case of Hamlet without the prince, but they conjured up a truly majestic kind of magic for a packed to the rafters NEC. The concept worked because, rather than trying to act as a replacement or a substitute for the great Showman, Paul Rodgers provided a triumphant alternative. He might not boast Mercury's charisma (Who Does ed.) and theatricality, but he proved he is a superb rock vocalist in his own right as he wove some of his own hits into the Queen back catalogue. Surprisingly, he was only on stage for perhaps half of the two-hour concert as Brian May and Roger Taylor, no mean singers themselves, handled favourites like Love Of My Life, I'm In Love With My Car, Days Of Our Lives, I Want It All and Radio Ga Ga. And Mercury made a brief, spine-tingling big-screen appearance as Bohemian Rhapsody was reproduced magnificently, with a combination of video playback and live instruments. May - one of the very few men in the world who can look cool wearing bubble curls and a big girls blouse - was in supreme form, reminding us that his unique, gloriously fluid guitar was a key component in Queen's success. And Taylor too, clearly revelled in the occasion, especially when introducing the one new song, poignant Aids warning Say It's Not True. It remains to be seen whether this project will produce more fresh material but as they led an ecstatic audience through encores of All Right Now, We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions, it was difficult to imagine that they won't be back with more of the same. You can't have it all, but when some of the greatest rock music ever written is recreated so brilliantly, you've got more than most of us could dared to have dreamed of.

Queen a fost (si o parte mai este) o formatie care a adus foarte multe inovatii si lucruri extraordinare in lumea muzicii si nu numai.

Sunt fani Queen pe aici?

Si mie imi place queen.A scris istorie.Freedie Mercury cu geniul sau si ceilalti membrii cu talentul lor au compus o formatie care va domni pe vecie.Sa speram ca aceste trupe nu vor muri si nu le voir lua locul alte porcarii.

Cat despre Paul Rodgers ne e chiar asa de bine.Am vazut un concert cu el.Deplorabil

Asa zic si eu dar facea furori pe vremea cand canta la Free si Bad Company. Ai ascultat "All right now", live la Woodstock? Acolo se vede avantajul tineretii...

Apropo, stiai ca idolul lui Mercury era chiar Paul Rogers? Ca sa vezi!

Asadar, sunt fani pe-aici!

Stilul QUEEN, inconfundabil!

Nimeni niciodata nu-l va putea inlocui pe Mercury.

Paul Rodgers nu este si nici nu va fi un replacement pentru Mercury

CATEGORIC. Nimeni, niciodata! Nu vad de ce tot incearca unii acest lucru...

Poate o sa fii surprins dar cel care a dat stilul asa de inconfundabil al grupului nu a fost Mercury ci Brian May. Daca arunci o privire in discografia lor, cele mai multe piese sint compuse de May. Acum Plant si Rodgers au fost vocalisti de rock mai buni decit Mercury in ierarhia specialistilor, asa cum la fel de bine i.e. Led Zeppelin a fost un grup mai semnificativ decit Queen. Poate si pentru faptul ca piesele Queen au sunat excellent numai in studio si nu in sala de concerte.

Daca discutam despre ceea ce ne place, atunci datele problemei se schimba, Queen ramine un monstru sacru.

Off topic : daca e pe aici vreun fan al Genesis sau OMD (Orchestral Manouevres in the Dark ) si daca v-ar interesa un Concert la Londra in may ... PM please
