Watch Adam Lambert - Heaven On their Minds ... was voted best vocal performance of all time. Also check out his song crawl thru fire zodiac show

[@stevefromdodge]

Adam lambert - Believe at the Kennedy Center He made Cher cry. Also "is anybody listening" where he plays Joshua. Yes that's Val Kilmer as Moses.

[@doloresweatherspoon-bb4ul]

As Charlie singing Come Bend With Me from Brigadoon. Note him holding a note for 21seconds. 🌾

[@annakonda2664]

Please go in and listen to the god Tommy Johansson. He played guitar in Sabaton until recently, has his own band Majestica but releases new covers every Friday. Sings like a god, plays over 10 instruments himself and makes all the videos himself. Go in and listen and enjoy. He crushes ABBA's the winner takes it all, Queen, Gary Moore and others. There is so much to listen to. Please tell me what you think of him.

[@nicolei7162]

There is a fantastic documentary called "The show must go on" which tells the story of Queen from losing Freddy to the discovery of Adam. Highly recommend

[@marybrant9586]

It's really good

[@rogercaruso9337]

It was a great documentary. I recorded it and I watched it every now and then

[@lorriredmon8212]

An excellent documentary and excellent recommendation!

[@peppermintcrush5794]

I agree! It is really good!

[@lamusiclover2264]

The voice you hear is ALL Adam. He doesn't need any sonic enhancements or auto tuning. He sounded this good as a contestant on American Idol. Many people in the music industry consider him to be an underrated singer and probably the best male vocalist alive right now. You must see him sing "Believe" for Cher at the Kennedy Center Honors. He should have won an Emmy. Celebrities in the audience were blown away, and Cher was driven to tears.

[@AllisonEsposito-km6ll]

"Believe" is amazing!!!!

[@ellenstrack6274]

It was amazing to see Cher cry at the end...She was truly moved.

[@danthefool21]

My wife and I saw them live in 2014. She is a HUGE Queen fan. Adam sings like he is THE biggest Queen fan and not trying to be Freddie. A night we will never forget!

[@lararoostalu9318]

It’s so true! Adam is the biggest Queen fan since he discovered Queen in his late teens. Freddie was his role model and influenced Adam as an artist!

[@CandleLight1974]

That is exactly. As Roger said "Adam can sing the entire catalogue in his sleep" and Brian said "He can sing every note on every guitar's range" but does not sound like Freddie and despite that incomparable vocal ability and star quality, stage presence and charisma, all that make him so like Freddie, he knows that he is not Freddie and does not try to be him. He is not an impersonator or tribute act. He is simply a ridiculously gifted young man with a voice and performance skill that has set him apart and who grew up listening to and appreciating Queen's music because his father was a DJ and fan. His not winning American Idol in 2009 is one of the greatest shocks in TV talent show history (check out the backstage footage during the announcement, it's hilarious 🤣) but the winner was from Little Rock. I rest my case!

[@marybrant9586]

Roger Taylor of Queen even said he'd never heard this song sung this way before. Many a time, Adam takes the ear piece out. That's all him vocally. Other good songs with Queen + Adam are...I want it all, and The Show must go On. Watch the Cher tribute from Kennedy Center Honors, where he sings Believe. He even blows Cher away. Roger says there's no one out there currently that can match Adam vocally. I agree. He's so versatile

[@bothellkenmore]

I remember when I was filling out my music library in the late 90's and 2000's with compilations I really wanted "The Show Must Go ON" whatever I bought for Queen and I found it on a 2 CD best of or whatever it's called.

[@valogden]

The riffs he does with Brian's guitar are incredible before they sing I want it all.

[@rka3768]

Adam at the Cher Kennedy Center tribute brings tears to my eyes.

[@gypsylaine4515]

Adam is amazing!! When he first came on AI I knew he was a star. No one has a voice like him! And he’s a really nice guy!😊

[@kimhardy554]

​@@rka3768Absolutely! One of the best performances from anyone I've ever seen & it's so emotional ❤

[@davidmacfarlane1763]

@@CharlesPhillips-no3sz Nah I've heard Freddie and Adam live with queen.... Adam does not sound like crap. He does not sound like Freddie. Thats what puts people off.... he sounds waaaaay better than Paul did when it was Queen + Paul

[@stacia2719]

Adam Lambert is a classically trained vocalist. He performed in the theatre for many years. He was in Hair in Germany and Wicked (both national and LA touring companies). He also did his own version of Lady Gaga's hit-Marry the Night. It is better than the original. He performed Believe by Cher but turned the dance number into a ballad. It is breathtaking. Adam's albums are wonderful, and his fan base is dedicated. He has many performances on KZbin that are just stellar. His songs Closer To You and On the Moon on the James Gorden show are definitely worth a listen. They are from his album Velvet. Thank you for your reaction. Watching your chin hit the floor was priceless. It's usually how people react when they first hear him!!

[@sztig1471]

He is incredible. Seen him live with Queen last year. One of the best concerts I've ever been to if not the best!

[@jennifertaylor6197]

Just saw Queen and Adam Lambert in Dallas two days ago. And yes he can sing all of Freddie's songs. They tribute Freddie Mercury every single concert with holograms of Freddie. Queen tributes him as one of the greatest singers they have every heard.

[@valogden]

Saw him in Denver last night. He's even better live. His voice is perfect. You should see him singing Nessun Dorma during the middle of the set when they were performing their concert in 2022. My favorite is him singing Under Pressure with Roger. His 4th album Velvet is really great. He has a performance from home with just him and an acoustic guitar player. He sang the song On the Moon for The James Corden Show and The Grammy Museum. It's all Adam's voice with some reverb in some parts on Who Wants to Live Forever. Brian May calls him a "Gift From God". His remake of Sylvester's song "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)" was the song of London Pride and he was the headline act. There are so many examples of Adam being incredible and his funny self. A really fun performance he did on Jimmy Fallon's game show That's My Jam went crazy viral. He had to sing the song The Muffin Man as Cher to the music of Cher's version of Believe. He even added to his shows last summer and you can see him perform it at The Summertime Capital Ball at Wembley stadium. He's friends with the incredible Beverly Knight and they did a duet of the song Falling on Starstruck that they are judges on. He also joined her at her show during The Mighty Hoopla and sang I Can't Stand the Rain. It was on his 5th album of cover songs. I'm a fairly new "Glambert". I started following him after I saw his video of him singing Believe to Cher at The Kennedy Center Honors and made her tear up. He has a really great fan group!

[@javdestiny]

I absolutely LOVE Adam and Roger singing Under Pressure together. Ps we saw them in Baltimore

[@lesliepotts5825]

Toronto👍 just had to sell my tickets for LA because of a medical problem , I can’t fly. Bucket list on stage opera box tickets.

[@annetteschmidt796]

I saw them in Denver, too. Phenomenal!

[@valogden]

I'm sorry you couldn't go. Having a medical condition is hard. I was going to go another night but had to listen to my body.

[@ChristopherRobinson-l5v]

Brian May said this was the best this song was ever sung. Let that sink in.

[@clairesemple7997]

You need to hear him sing Nessun Dorma when they performed in Italy last year, you think this is amazing, wait until you hear that. He was also classically trained as well as theatrical. I never,ever tire of his voice. He is out of this world. And yes, queen songs and his vocal excellence were meant to be.

[@barbarabreitung1081]

i agree he does a fantastic job with that song

[@aischar.l.tandiman8337]

Adam IS one of the best singers today. He doesn't only sing, he also puts his whole heart and soul into his singing!

[@roberthudson1959]

Sir Brian May and Roger Taylor, the two men who would know best, have both said that Lambert can routinely sing parts that Mercury had to be in top form to sing. Lambert's voice seems to be higher-pitched than Mercury's, which means he can reach the stratosphere without effort.

[@sarahjaneheckscher6737]

The multiple layers of emotional weight that this song bears makes it one of my all time favourites. Adam’s performance here, after dedicating the performance to those who lost their lives in Orlando, is simply perfect.

[@shaynaformity1384]

He said in an interview that he felt quite vulnerable as an out gay man in the spotlight that night. The fact that he was able to feel that way and still do such a stellar performance is just unbelievable. Mad respect!

[@handles1242]

Adam's tribute to Cher 'Believe' at the 41st Annual Kennedy Center Honors is one to watch - very very moving!

[@mikenolan8044]

This performance is not just good. it is magical. And a fine homage to Freddie Mercury as well. And much love right back to you. ❤

[@celticpoet21]

Still mind bowing! Adam fits Queen like a glove! He completely honor's Freddie and does a spectacular job carrying on the torch! He's has got the vocal chops, stage presence and his chemistry with Sir Brian May (he was knighted earlier this year) and Roger Taylor is just infectiously electric! He is also really sweet, funny, humble and down to earth! This is one of those performances Sir Brian and Roger still look back on with utmost pride and astonishment. Adam still has these moments where he hits these stratospheric notes and they have these priceless looks of surprise on their faces like "what did he just do?!" Sir Brian and Roger are in no danger whatsoever of loosing their skills! They just adore Adam! Its with excellent reason Sir Brian calls Adam the GFG (Gift from God). They also started calling Adam their “brother” during 2019's original rhapsody tour. I don't think you can't beat that! I highly recommend the documentaries "the days of our lives" which is among the best Queen documentaries of how the band formed and "The show must go on-the Queen+Adam Lambert story".

[@victoriavelvet3689]

His voice hits even harder when you’re in he same room, anything he sings really is phenomenal, please react to everything!

[@JohnPaul-hm2ys]

After American Idol, people thought Adam disappeared. NO. He got the gig of a lifetime. Very few people could substitute for Freddie. Queen with Adam played in Philadelphia last month, and it was amazing. Second time seeing Queen. Of course, the first was with Freddie Mercury and his stage presence. Go watch Adam sing Believe at the Cher tribute and watch her reaction.

[@barbarapouw-vandevelde3080]

Now that you have heard him belt at one of his best performances (this specific performance is on the Live around the World slbum), please look up his very recent live performances of The world we Created, or Ordinary World. I love it when Adam does softly softly. As far as modern mics, Adam doesn't need any help. He really is that good.

[@Traci2000]

He sang Cher's Believe to Cher at the Kennedy Center Honors a few years ago. Would definitely recommend that performance. It's also live. And hiss performance of Mad World on American Idol. Legendary!

[@brendaclark8344]

He changed from a pop song to a slower but more powerful song. Cher was so impressed that she demanded he record it and it was his song now.

[@hanafris3449]

Adam doesn't use any autotune. Never. He is such an incredible singer, even better in live performances. Thanks for your great reaction and I hope you'll do more reaction vids to Adam 🥰🥰

[@damot1051]

Adam's an incredible vocalist. He sang Whole Lotta Love on American Idol..the first and only time (I believe) Led Zeppelin have cleared one of their songs for use on a TV talent show. Obviously, he blew it away. Incredible performance and one worth watching

[@sharonmaske3540]

He should've won American Idol, but for bigotry. Yet, it is better that he didn't as he could still remain himself. I'm so glad he tours with Queen. You should hear some of his solo albums.

[@staceygrahame2504]

Cool to see this being reacted to. No words describe how spectacular the entire live show was. Every song was this good. Random fact: I’m the girl in the mermaid wig you see at the end with one of my beautiful bffs who was shining in gold. It was worth standing at the stage for 6 and a half hours before they started, to be front row. We cried like babies during that performance. I’m gay, it hit home. It was the most amazing tribute.

[@janulake]

Wow, that's amazing! Do you realize how many millions of people have already seen you? 😊🧜‍♀👏

[@charlottecollinskw]

You have to hear him sing Nessun Dorma in Italy with Queen and and Believe for Cher at the Kennedy Center Honors. He made her cry. In case you care, he is, as Simon Cowell said last year, one of the nicest guys in show business.

[@tylerl4472]

6:07 LITERALLY I feel like there have been so many people who don’t know him and it drives me crazy how many vocalists and musicians don’t know much about him. I really want more vocal coaches and professional musicians reacting to his live vocals as I like to hear many opinions.

[@sheilagarrett7540]

He is one of the greatest voices you will ever hear. I grew up with Freddy Mercury and loved him, but he never sang this song this GOOD

[@tracylbuxton2957]

My husband and I took our 2 oldest daughters (12 & 14) to see Queen w/ Adam Lambert the summer after Bohemian Rhapsody was released. It was amazing! I have so much respect for Adam stopping after the 2nd song to announce that he is NOT replacing Freddie, he is getting to tour with one of his all-time favorite bands and honor Freddie.

[@JeshuaSquirrel]

Adam made Cher cry (in a good way) with his cover and reimagining of her song "Believe".

[@MarseLGilfanoV]

Это было супер.

[@doberski6855]

Have watched that Kennedy Center Awards performance many times, both him and Cyndi Lauper really did an outstanding job that night!

[@marshamoore5700]

Aside from his phenomenal vocal technique, listen to the emotion and cry in his voice, as he conveys the pain he is feeling in response to the Pulse Nightclub shooting. Adam is a superlative performer and human being.

[@abigailjohnson4270]

He has a superb voice with a ridiculous range. He’s a fabulous talent and honestly I can’t think of anyone else who could attempt to pull off Freddie’s songs… as a singer myself who also teaches technique (aka how not to shred ur voice!) he is pretty much faultless. V much his own sound like Freddie was. Do listen to more - watch the documentary on how he and Queen found each other as it’s very good and boy did he have to hit the ground running. My son likes his single Ghost Town which also showcases his range but in a less flashy way. He is superb. A proper talent, a proper voice that doesn’t need auto anything thank heaven!

[@valogden]

I like Ghost Town but loved it when he sang it with Queen at Rock in Rio. They changed it up a bit.

[@celtcwrtr]

Adam is on tour with Queen right now, they played Denver last night and the final four dates are in San Francisco and LA this week. Plenty of fan videos on KZbin. (Fun fact... before Idol Adam was in the first national tour of Wicked with Shoshana Bean. He was in the ensemble, as well as the Fiyero understudy. He was also in the LA production.)

[@karinaflores28]

The most fabulous vocalist, solo or with queen !!!

[@ajbee1065]

There is a video somewhere on KZbin of Adam doing radio promo for his second album. He had his acoustic guitarist playing for him and he sang without a mike and it was amazing. You could tell he was a musical theater performer because the projection and sound was amazing. I imagine if they got an arena completely silent, he could sing without a mike and even those in the nosebleeds would probably hear him.

[@DravenGal]

Adam Lambert is in a class by himself. He is a Michelangelo, and his voice is his medium. You should check out his version of Cher's "Believe." Yeah, tell me again how he "lost" American Idol. Kris who?

[@amybeagle6217]

He's amazing! Listen to his Queen stuff, but also his solo work -- live studio versions of Close to You or Feel Something from his album Velvet are soooo good!

I love seeing new people discover Adam Lambert & his astounding voice... reminds me of when I first heard him sing... blew me away, and ruined me for any other male singer lol... I mean, I can still enjoy other songs, but nobody sings like Adam Lambert: he's the best of the best, the singers' singer, not just because of his tone, power, breathing, control, etc. but also the expression and interpretation of lyrics & meaning of a song. Such a special soul & singer

[@lorriredmon8212]

[@Pilutta100]

Saw Queen in Stockholm, Sweden before the pandemic struck, and having him as a lead singer is the absolute best decision ever. It was so humbling and totally gratifying to see Adam totally just dooo it. Nobody at that consert thought he wasn't good enough. Freddie is a million times proud of what is happening. Hugs from Sweden.

[@blackknight1013]

I've seen a few people in last couple of years pull of really great vocals to a Queen track, but for years before that Queen lad loads of singers sing their songs and made you realise once again how good Freddie was. Adam was really first that can pull off the vocals needed, and is a great showman too.

[@Tmalberts01]

Recently saw Queen+Adam Lambert in Philadelphia. It was beyond incredible, especially being a Queen fan who never got to see Freddie Mercury(I did see Paul Rodgers play with Queen back in the early 2000's-not terrible but his style didn't blend with theirs). The clip you have of Who Wants To Live Forever really does do it justice inasmuch as making you WANT to hear more Adam Lambert himself and what/if anything he and Queen do down the line.

[@denisbryce8746]

I saw Queen Live in 1977 in Sydney naturally with Freddie & they were awesome. My eldest Daughter & I went to see them Live again in Sydney with Adam at the helm, in 2020 (Not long before Covid became an issue in Australia). Of course the Electronics are far more advanced so too the sound Production & Adam was sensational. My daughter became a fan of his after his American Idol Performances & I also became a fan of his during his early career. Because I was already a Queen fan & seeing them with Freddie, I had expectations & I can honestly say my expectations were well met. It was the 3rd best Concert I have ever seen, only behind Elton John a few Months later & John Farnham a few years before. To put that into perspective, I have seen more than 100 Live Concerts in my 64 Years.

[@PurpleWillowArts]

I was so so lucky to see this live! I saw Queen + AL in 2019 and it was AMAZING - we were front row!

[@19Rena96]

You need to react to Adams version of Freddie Mercury's "I Was Born To Love You" (Tokyo, Japan, 2014) It's one of my favorite performances of his! Other amazing Queen + Adam Lambert songs are: -The Show Must Go on (O2 Arena, London, UK 2018) A recent (fan filmed) performance would be 4K Queen+Adam Lambert- “The Show Must Go On” Chicago 10/31/23 and it's incredible! -I Want To Break Free (Lisbon, Portugual 2016) -Radio Ga Ga (Fire Fight, Sydney, Australia 2020) -Don't Stop Me Now (Rock in Rio, Lisbon Portugal, 2016) My favorite original songs he did are part of the Velvet Live Sessions. Closer to you, Loverboy, Stranger You Are and Overglow are my favorites and really amazing ♥

[@dinobravo852]

As camp as Freddie was, but in a different way...what I like about him is he doesn't try to imitate Freddie...

[@sunnishine100]

I’ve heard him sing this at at a queen concert twice…chills both times. He is great with queen but I hate that he feels like he feels like he has to apologize for not being Freddy every time.

[@wendywallis2956]

From the first time he opened his mouth in the American Idol audition, I knew he was special. It was a sham that he didn't win. His performances on Idol were epic. There is a video out there with all his performances on it. You should check it out.

[@kathybrown9472]

He’s amazing. This is a full body goosebumps moment. You need to hear him perform his version of Cher’s Believe on the Kennedy Center Honors. Magical!!

[@supasoulproductions]

You really should check out his version of Cher's Believe. It's amazing!

[@fullmetalcrusader]

I have seen him twice in Australia Adam said during one of those concerts that he needs to fund his own meaning for the Queen songs to sing them this good I believe he is one of the few artists that can sing the entire queen back catalogue to a near Freddie level

[@queenfanforlife66996]

I saw them live in Chicago a few days ago. It’s truly brilliant.

[@cunningdeb3129]

It's funny you mentioned Shoshanna Bean as he's friends with her and they were in Wicked together. You should check out the audio of his performance of Come to Me, Bend to Me from Brigadoon when he was 22 yrs. He did train in opera for a year or two when he was a teen.

[@ychaps]

Watch him sing Believe at the Kennedy centre awards honoring Cher.... incredible...best singer of his generation...

[@omgitsjay5614]

Crazy that you didn’t know who Adam is! The dude is an amazing vocalist and I actually just saw him and Queen live two weeks ago. Phenomenal performance

[@kristinestout1170]

Adam did an awesome version of "Believe" for a Cher award program. It is as awesome as this one.

[@GreybeardMO]

Adam is no Freddie. He'd be the first to agree with me. Happily, he's not trying to be. He is an incredibly talented singer, fully capable of fronting Queen in Freddie's absence. I've heard many Queen songs with Adam, he does an excellent job on every one. Here's a funny bit for you, Adam Lambert had a cameo with Rami Malek as a bearded trucker in the movie Bohemian Rhapsody :D

[@KimbaLoveAdams]

He does a beautiful tribute to Cher at the Kennedy Honors of her song Believe.,

[@janulake]

The most amazing interpretation of this song that exists ❤❤❤

[@suren341]

You should the original

[@janulake]

@@suren341 I know the original very well. This is more breathtaking.

[@anniek55112]

I love Adam. Go down the rabbit hole if you haven't yet. I've heard this one love several times now and goosebumps and tears just happen. He is my favorite male vocalist. He is so incredible and a really cool guy

[@carolhagerty4288]

You must explore Adam and his performances, his own music, his solo tours, and countless appearances. You will fall in love with that voice, guaranteed. He’s all over KZbin.

[@sielbe5-lq4dx]

How is it possible to be a part of the music world and to be a Queen fan and not know Adam……?

[@lararoostalu9318]

He’s not really advertised….

[@renata3186]

Lambert is amazing, I was @ Queen + Adam Lambert concert in 2017 - live he sounded wonderful

[@gracetaylor6200]

Please react to more of him, and him and Queen. I just saw them live literally yesterday, and he's hands down the best live performer I've ever seen--and I'd say I go to a lot of concerts. He's such a show on his own but he sings these songs with so much respect for Freddy, and for Brian May and Roger Taylor who are original Queen members. I assume "sponsoring" him means money, so I can't do that for you, but I hope you listen to much more of him 💜

[@gailfoster8972]

Maggie Maggie pull up everything you can find and listen you are going to be blown out of your chair

[@galelrm6735]

Did you get a sponsor for Adam Lambert? I would definitely do so to hear more reactions. He is my hero!

[@maggiereneemusic]

Thanks for your comment. Would love to get more Adam Lambert on the channel. Here is the information on how to 'Sponsor Your Own Reaction': www.maggierenee.com/book-me/sponsor-a-reaction-live Thanks for your support! 🎶💐🌺

[@tracygahagan1872]

You should watch all the songs he sang when he was in American Idol. He made them all his own and he only came in second place. My husband and I bought tickets to see the american idol tour just to see him.

[@sandirobinson6966]

I just saw Queen + Adam Lambert live again last week in St. Paul MN. He is even better, and they are even better together. Adam has a phenomenal voice, and he fits into Queen like a glove. I was hoping for the collaboration as soon as I saw Adam on American Idol, (sing Bohemian Rhapsody for his audition no less!) and well, sometimes, miracles happen. There's also the fact that he has a great personality, is incredibly respectful and grateful to Freddie, Brian and Roger, and makes a great front-man for Queen. Super nice kid and again, fits Queen like a glove. Watch him (KZbin) put Cher into tears at Kennedy Center Honors singing "Believe".

[@angelacollins-eb5nk]

Adam's voice is incredible. He doesn't try to be Freddie Mercury but honors him. Adam Lambert performance of this song is actually better than the late and incredible Freddie Mercury.

[@rbird2214]

Highly recommend The Show Must Go On, specifically the 2018 performance at the O2 arena.

[@brian-mays-clogs-3]

I saw the Rhapsody tour live a couple days ago in Denver it was absolutely amazing

[@einnanoslen]

Adam is EVERYTHING!!!! 👑 I just saw him with Queen in October and I was right by the stage, he sounded even better than this. I'm not joking. It's all him, no auto-tune. You know it's all him because if he thinks he hit a bad note he always puts his hand up to his ear or takes his ear piece out so he can hear himself. I've seen reviews of him with Queen where people complained because they don't think he's singing live because he sounds too good. But he's really that amazing. Adam is a legend! 🙌

[@MarseLGilfanoV]

Adam Bravo. Russia

[@firedoc5]

When I hear this song, it makes think of the soundtrack that Queen did for the movie "Highlander". Honestly, at first, I wasn't sure if Adam could really put it off, but I was more than pleasantly surprised and think Freddy would be more than pleased with his performance.

[@phildeval]

Simply 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

[@rockchic65]

It is from the soundtrack for Highlander.
