Roger "Głuchy" Taylor o Adamie Lambercie i Paulu Rodgersie:
So if Queen is a brand, operated by you and Brian, where does Adam Lambert fit in?
I wouldn’t say he’s always going to be part of Queen. We’re doing the live TV show in Vegas with Adam and a couple other guests, in a 10,000-seater, but that’s all we’ve got planned. There are no rules, really. WE do things very much on the spur.
But you plan to continue performing as Queen, with or without Adam Lambert?
Yeah, but it’s only an occasional thing now. Last year, with Adam, we did three really big shows in Europe and three at Hammersmith Apollo, which was a lot of fun. Brian and I realised a long time ago, this is what we do, this is what we are. I’m afraid, readers, it goes on forever.
Are you happy with Adam as Queen’s singer?He works very well with us. He’s an incredible singer. He’s got a really magnetic stage presence. He’s very sexy. And, of course, our more theatrical songs suit him perfectly. He’s a diva – a male deva. And that’s what he should think about being.
Before you began working with Adam, you toured and recorded an album as Queen + Paul Rodgers.
Paul is a singer that Freddie admired. He led two of rock’s greatest bands, Free and Bad Company. In that sense he is the antithesis of Adam Lambert.
We actually loved playing the Free and Bad Company stuff with Paul. But, strangely enough, although Paul was wonderful, with that amazing blues-soul voice, Adam is more suited to some of
our bigger songs than Paul was.
Some Queen fans think you’re selling the band short by having a guy from American Idol as your singer. Do you understand that?
Whatever you do, people have to take it or leave it. That’s always the case.
Cóż, jeśli te bigger songs to Zgaga i Break Free, to może i tak. Chociaż... też niekoniecznie
