Queen plus Adam Lambert - BBC1

Is it me, or my sound box? Or them? The sound mix just doesn't sound right.
Sounds like it's only the audience mic picking up Adam's voice.

The loudness of his voice did vary a bit, but I put it down to his way
of singing those songs. We've become so used to the way that Freddie
Mercury sang them that anything else sounds strange.

Still, what a pleasure to get hear some great music to see the New Year
in. May and Taylor were as dependable as ever, I'm pleased to say.

Yes, it was good, sound problem ignored! We gave up after the fireworks
- usually lovie director zooming all over the place - and recorded the
second half.

Truly awful that was, I turned it off after five mins and listened to the
radio.

And they truly appeared to be enjoying themselves, which was great.
Nobody can replace Freddie Mercury, but if they are happy with Lambert,
so am I.

Ditto.

What I find interesting about Adam Lambert is that his style and
performance suit the Queen songs. The members of Queen can perform the
music just the same as if Freddie were still on stage with them, but
Adam Lambert is definitely not a Freddie Mercury impersonator.

I enjoyed it too and as much as old videos are fun, it was good to see
them play live if through the medium of television.
