What a fantastic performance!! Adam I know how honored you must have been to perform with Queen. One of best rock bands in history. Adam you rocked it!! Loved it!
Absolutly a amazing performance, i love it when he sings with Queen. it a very dyanmic performance and you couldnt be better. adam is known on american idol for being very theatrical when he performes, Randy always insult him for that, but i think he is amazing, his showman ship is amazing. and that jacket he is wearing is AMAZING. and i think he also wore it for the dark side of the Better Than I Know Myself music vido. *who said u cant wear things twice?* i loved the perforamnce and i wish i was there! I LOVE YOU ADAM LAMBERT!
You know it is funny when Adam first performed with Queen on finale night of AI ,my hubby was in bathtub he was up and out with a towel wrapped around him saying Queen has new singer and they are back ,it was kinda surreal really ,we both love the music ,Adam is a awesome singer and he will outshine many other idols,he has proved himself over and over again,he is it ,when you can front a iconic rock band like Queen ,he can sing,big fan.
The Perfomance was absolutely wonderful! I could listen & watch it all day.....Yeah! Adam
That video has given me a new reason to smile. It is a piece of history. It is rock Icons, with what will become a rock Icon. It was more wonderful than words can say.
I hear Adam is looking for a new home in the future. I have a suggestion. There is a home that was formerly owned by Ellen DeGenerous. Now it is part of the Heath Ledger family sales. It is up for a decent price, and I
think it would fit him perfectly...

Absolutely phenominal!!!!! I'm lost for words .... and I can't listen to this enough!!
Heaven and earth united for these blissful moments that will forever belong to the greats of rock n roll history. So proud of Adam and so amazed by the gentle souls that can still rock the Queen after all these years. RIP Mr. Mercury, we won't let them forget you!
Some songs do not sing. Did not work. But overall, you have your own songs, these songs are very good!

ADAM IS AWESOME!! Saw him in concert last yr. in San Diego. He came out and signed and talked. He is wonderful to his fans. Him coming out after the show made my night unforgetable. Thanks Adam for a great performance and spending a few minutes with your fans!!! Luv, Ethany
OK, are you kidding me? Adam Lambert NEEDS to be with QUEEN! NO ONE, absolutely no one can equal Freddie Mercury's vocals EXCEPT ADAM! My God, I would absolutely BE out of my mind to see Queen again with Adam...I saw Queen 10 times in the 70s and 80s and I PRAY that they hit the road with Adam...this must include Adam's originals and Queens hits as well...Adam ..... WHO ARE YOU? Your voice brings me to tears....you are such a gift and we are so blessed to be alive during your prime......all the best for you, Adam....PLEASE don't stop EVER what you are doing.....you aren't Lady Gaga or all the others, but you have a fan base that is FANATIC FOR YOU AND WHO LOVES YOU SO VERY MUCH UNCONDITIONALLY....THANK YOU Brian May for tapping into Adam and bringing him into the Queen fold....you belong there Adam....oh, god, I could go on and on....just keep singing Adam....you transcend music....you are ethereal, a voice from the gods!.....thank you Brian May for making that phone call and getting Adam to perform with you.....hope to see you and Queen and Adam on tour next year....Adam, you are a GIFT FROM THE GODS....DON'T EVER STOP PERFORMING!....all my love and devotion, adamworshiper....michaelsam3465@yahoo.com
To tell the truth... This video did a good job to make my hair stands on the edge!!! It's just too AWESOME!!!
Awesome!!!
I love Queen and Freddie Mercury, I love Adam Lambert, I love this performance.
I dream, someday Adam to sing one great, special, wonderful... song with "Queen"-"Bohemian Rapsody".
Adam, your voice is not one in a hundred million. it is one in seven billion! (only one in the WORLD)

I can't believe they teased us with the intro to Under Pressure!! That was just cruel!! All I want for Christmas is for Adam to cover that song!! He would kill it!!
Amazing performance.
At the request of some fellow fans, I repost the following comment:
Simon said; "You are too theatrical, and therefore, not current."
Adam: "Is this something I can work on? I KNOW I CAN DO THIS"
no kidding!
You are not singing Queen for an audition, you are singing WITH QUEEN at their request.
I rest my case.
Simply incredible! Adam just keeps getting better...THIS is CLASSIC LAMBERT!
My God I saw Adam on the Ema´s and he was SO AMAZING AND EXCITING!!! He performed as he was Freddy Mercury but with Adam´s style!!!! Loved it!!! you so deserved to be on that stage and so many others. Hope you can do the Queen´s tour!!! Thanks for singing like you do Adam, never forget who you are!!!
That was without a doubt an absolutely breathtaking performance I enjoyed every minute of it.
Absolutely fabulous - but then I knew that. Adam has the most unusual, strong and wonderful voice I've heard. I love him and follow him constantly. It would be great if he became the new lead singer of Queen because he's a natural for it, but it may hinder his career being known as Queen and not his own person. Either way, I will always love him!
Wow, absolutely amazing. I am a huge fan since the Idols, was there in San Diego at Mount Carmel to greet you home. Since moved back to South Africa and glad I can follow you thru your site here. You ARE very popular over here and the radio shows plays your music a lot. What about a tour over here to this side of the world, guarantee it will be a sell-out!
We don't have Freddy with us anymore but your vocals will be as Iconic one of a kind in the world right now! JUST LOVe YOU!
Adam, you are one in a billion! Love you so much!!!
Mesmerizing! I would love to get a copy of the song or even the footage itself. Adam, after capturing our hearts and minds, you send us spinning into the stratosphere with your soaring vocals.
When I hear you sing,I feel as if my spirit is flying. What a rush! Bravo!!
As usual, AWESOME! Adam is still the great performer (and the best) from AI!. More power to you Adam!!!!
I got chills listening to this. Amazing to see Queen with Adam singing lead vocals. Love this!!!
Have been a fan from the first time I hear you sing on American Idol ,, knew you were great then and know you will be even greater in the future. Please never stop singing and recording,, and for sure do more tours. You are so much more than a giften singer. God gave you this gift to share with the world,, thank you for doing so.
I may be older than most your fans,, but you have made me want to listen to music again,,, lost interest over the years, due to all the "rap" stuff,, enjoy hearing the music and words. I like your fast or slow songs,, you can sing it all,,, just like Elvis,,, and he was the best. We lost him many years ago,, and then we lost Michael,, please don't let us lose you,, to anything... Stay the sweet man you are, you don't need anyone telling you what to do,, be your own person and stay on top of it all. You will stay grounded by your family and close friends. Love ya,, want to hear more from you in the future...
Adam....As usual you were absolutely amazing!!! I always look for your tv appearances since I am physically disabled & would not ever be able to travel to see you in concert.....You have been such an ispiration to me during difficult times in my life & I am so grateful to you for bringing a smile to my face everytime....Thank you so much for all that you are & will be to me ~HUGS~
ADAM....You were super great as usual.....You have the vocals to do any song you want....still great...keep on going!!!!
Your Best french canadian Fan
Ann

I had the pleasure of meeting Adam after the show in Belfast as I was working at the after party,what a lovely lovely guy you are! I watched the show afterwards,a fantastic performance,big thumbs up
been doing a hypnotherapy course for the last week haven't been near the pc couldn't wait to check in here to see what has been happening WOW what a performance takes a true musical genius to carry out such an awe inspiring performance. i have said it before Adam"s talent is "transcendent".
You sort of lost the music there towards the end? technical difficulties? Not that it matters because you are brilliant! I'm curious if you still make time to read these comments?
Adam you were AMAZING as always! I've watched it over and over and of course shared with others! Stellar and exciting performance! Looking forward to your new music!
Adam, you completely owned those performances!
wow, I'm from South Africa so the EMA's brodecasts's a bit later here but omg, I'm a big queen fan but I think Adam did it better. Adam you trully are awesome, you have a brilliant voice (as you've been told countles of times) and you realy give hope to many people, I don't know you of corse but from what I've seen you trully are an amazing person and my hero. just please never quit. o yes and you realy do have tuns of fans here on this side of the world, please come pay us a visit!
OMG!!!! THIS IS FREAKING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So Great Thou Art ..... Absolutely Amazing .... Keep It Coming I've Been A Missing You and Your Breath-Taking Performances
This is Adam at his very best. Nobody can beat Adam when he is in rock mode! he is the only one that can match Freddie Mercury on vocals. Would love to see him do more work with Queen.
We Should get together everyone; probably for certain, Adam I have Ideas!
Always Recycling, April Heather
OH he shut down the EMA's Alright! who else could do that with Gutso.
It was Adam at his mesmerising best. Yes it will be go down in history as one of his best ever performances.
Cant wait for the new album. Adam this time the UK is yours to behold. success beckons. Your numbers are aligned. Dont worry about the distractions all will be well.
Have not been back here in a long time. Its amazing what one great performance can do. It drew me back in with an email although I must have watched it over 100 times. Crazy!!
Blessings

OMG~~~SO LOVE ADAM.....have ever since the first time I saw him audtiion on American Idol....he was my favorite....LOVE ADAM!!!!! Saw you at The KINGS CENTER in MELBOURNE FL----so hope you come back here again....I would love to see you....over and over....I would also love to see ADAM play the Lead roll of FRANKENFURTER in a rivised edition of THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE show.....you would create a whole new fan filled generation of Rocky Horror fanatics.....my oh my......you have such a bright future.....we love you ADAM!!!!!
I've watched this video so many times I've stopped counting and each and every time I am in awe of Adam's talent. He has a true gift from God. His voice is like no other and the perfect blend of his voice with Queen was a match made in heaven, truly. The chemistry between them is obvious and the respect and admiration they each have for each other is also obvious. This was a true honor to be asked to sing with Queen for the Global Icon Award on MTV EMAs and I'm very sure Queen (and Freddie) were very proud of Adam's performance. The media is still buzzing about the performance. If only this melody could appear on ITunes or as a special release "single" so the world could blissfully listen again and again. \\
This performance should go down in music history (and I think it just did).
Thank you, Betsy for the YouTube links. I thought they had all been taken down.
I thought I couldn't love Adam anymore than I already do but now I am even more in awe of this brilliant young man.
I just got to watch, and I have tears streaming down my cheeks...what incredible talent this guy has....I have to watch his DVD again!! But WOW!! With Queen!! I love you Adam, and so does my husband!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PRETTY PLEASE COME DO A CONCERT SOME WHERE IN FLORIDA,.. TAMPA PREFERRED.. I LOOOOOVEEEEEE YOU AND YOUR MUSIC,.... AND I WOULD DIE TO C U IN CONCERT!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM WEARING YOUR T SHIRTS OUT,..I WEAR THEM SO MUCH AND PEOPLE ALWAYS MAKE A COMMENT ABOUT THEM,.... EITHER OH WOW YOU LISTEN TO HIM TOO!! OR OMG WHERE DID YOU GET THAT,...I LOVE HIS MUSIC!!!!!
KEEP ROCKIN ON AND WORKIN FOR YOUR CAUSE... I AM LISTENING!!!!!!
LOVE YA
I honestly believe that I didn't know good music until I heard incomparable Adam's cover of most original songs from world's considered music icons.
This is another cover done magnificently by Adam and for me, once again, is so brilliant that original becomes now a second rate. SORRY!
"Cause in my ears, (and i don't care about other ears' hearing capabilities) Adam is always flawless, definitely second to no one.
The newest megastar is born, the best entertainer of the 21st century and that's the mega truth, let's accept it.!!!!!
Adam, please make yourself more visible. We're already missing your good music. Can't wait to hear the "elusive" sophomore album.
God bless and more luck,
Beth C

The man is beyond brilliant. I am 44 years old and total music junkie since diapers. I love many voices - Whitney, Barbra, Mariah, Patty, Celine but OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG to my death (other than Country Music's as equally phenomenal Martina McBride) there will never be another voice that gives my ears orgasm like Adam Lambert. I am beside myself every song he sings -- BUT --- I must admit, I prefer him doing ROCK N ROLL better than his debut glam/goth/gay/dance stuff. (Not criticizin I do love that cd too but I'm just sayin...the man is a brilliant rocker.
Adam listen to what Kara Diguardo told you the night you did Zepplin and Randy agreed - ROCK N ROLL GOD you are indeed.
Thanks for existing on this planet and for singing!
Joe
that was awesome! I was hoping to watch the rest...WE are the Champions and we will Rock you...is it on here somewhere? Talent does cut through all boundaries!!! Always new Adam would be a superstar!! His voice is up there with the elites voices..i consider..Maria Carey, Celine Dion, Freddie Mercury, Andre Puccelli, Karen Carpenter, Michael Jackson etc,,...Voices that are out of this world! Pure and amazing. TALENT CUTS THROUGH BARRIERS. Gods gift. This is what I know Adam can sing....I dont like the Techno.. I like Adam to blast it like Queen! Thanks for showing the world that sound you make! You Rock!
Perfect!!!
