  • Its not adam's fault that queen want him for the vocals -_-

  • Stop Lambert!

  • dafaq he's alive? and he's bigger and got a good set of teeth.

  • @silverbluez999 on the other side, he's just 20 and somethin, and he's already losing his hair =)

  • Gotta see these guys LIVE!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • I think they hired the girl because she could do Roger's high vocal notes.

  • The fugly bitch should really quit herself.

  • @kostelo21 hey u mutt,ur a piece of shit,picking on a lady,just because you can not sing.slipknot, please.no wonder you dont know shit about singing.the only one that is fugly is your mouth,something you probably use alot to try to impress other guys MF

  • Nico Saavedra is better drummer. Bye!.

  • in the somebody to love audition he was great (don't know if he was in playback) but here it's not closely comparable to freddy.... what the fuck people... he barely gets close to his vocal.... can't you hear that?

  • @WantOxide he sounds more like FM on the Live Queen albums (The Bowl, Killers, Wembley, etc).

  • No offense to the second vocalist, but she is very unnecessary. Marc should be the only one singing.

  • my brother can do beter he nam barry

  • Marc seems reserved here, in the other videos he nails it. But the guitar player worries me, Brian's guitar was as big as Freddy's voice, his sound emotes so much. This video leaves a lot to be desired there, I hope it's just cause its a practice and their slacking.

  • lose the chick!

  • ok no

  • Remember people that the tour is supposed to be Queen AND a tribute band, so it's likely that the real Queen band would have someone else singing lead vocals. Marc is fronting the tribute band. I'm sure Marc will sing with Queen for a song or two though as well

  • @HollyW00d81 I don't remember it being mentioned anything about the original Queen band touring with the tribute band. I don't think they have time to tour since their working on a movie, they have to keep the tribute band working and all the other hasle at this time.

  • I think the Adam Lambert thing is just a rumor. if u check out the official site it has Marc as doing it not Adam.

  • just make a tour! Come to Lisbon!!

  • this band really ROCKS.. they have the chemistry!

  • When Marc first screamed "Hey" at the start of the video, I swear I thought I heard Freddie.

  • The original band was composed of 4 musicians. The actual one needs 7 to do the same job. Queen FTW! (But they're still good anyway)

  • SUPER !!!!!!!!

  • Are they seriously goin to choose Adam Lambert as the new vocalist instead of Marc ? smh somebody answer me .

  • @TheSuperdupercat i would think its a personal choice on marc's part. he does have another band after all. and adam had the job i believe before the contest came out, but marc is defiantly Freddie reincarnated lol adam doesnt do a terrible job though

  • @ThinMint2009 He's really not. He doesn't have the voice, power, or charisma of Freddie.

  • @SigandGibbs well there defiantly isn't another Freddie that's for sure. but he does a damn good job, i think a lot of his power and charisma came from the live shows, he just loved to sing. Marc is defiantly a tad reserved lol I'd be nervous as hell singing queen songs in front of a huge audience and getting criticized by everyone, good or bad

  • Please Marc Martel please do not let that Adam Lambert take vocals queen, you are 100 times more!

  • There's no need for the second singer imo... I know there's the whole "equality" bollocks that was probably considered, but really.....?

  • I met and ate some lunch and dinner with him in June last year. He's very nice and very fun to hang out with :)

  • Adam Lambert... lol.

  • Adam Lambert sucks!!! Marc Martel is the man!!

  • @FrancoManna xD

  • @FrancoManna Couldnt agree more!

  • dat bass tone

  • GREAT NEW BAND!! :)

  • I'm sorry I really don't understand why this man is getting as much hype as he really should... He sounds nothing like Freddie.

  • @Alexander87oclock he sounded shit tons better in his auditions

  • @Alexander87oclock I dont think its a good example of marcs sound look at his audition for somebody to love ...he has the style they are looking for , theres only ONE Freddie..I miss him a lot.

  • @Alexander87oclock you think that marc doesn't sing like freddie?????? Crazy man....its very similar !

  • I wasn't sure about a having 2 guitar players and an extra singer on board then I watched for the overall dynamics. Roger Taylor did an excellent job. They sound and resonate visually like the music of Queen. If Roger goes the extra mile and gets the production right (light show, costumes etc.) it will be a juggernaut of a show. It is NOT a cheap copy but rather the soul of what Queen's music represents. Roger and Brian should jam with these new musicians just to have some fun of their own. :)

  • GRAT NEW BAND!!! ROCK ON!! :) QUEEN FOREVER!! :)

  • Let's start a campaign:

    CHANGE A PAUL ROGERS BY A MARC MARTEL, AND MAKE A BETTER WORLD!!!

    =D

  • when i see this stuff i always ask myself, "what would freddie say?"

  • @psmusic Freddie was bi and Marc is straight. Get your facts right.

  • the queen of the future!

  • An interview with Jennifer kens5(dot)com/great-day-sa/Loc­al-singer-wins-big--137767948.­html

  • Why is the girl even there? Let the guy deploy is fucking organ. Wait that didn't sound right.

  • Good sounding band, but NO ENERGY!

  • @Marioparty10 They've never practiced together in a very unusual atmosphere - considering that they sound fucking amazing. Just wait until they've worked with the producers and practiced and can really enjoy just rocking out - they'll rock the house.

  • @file83 I hope so! I'm starting to get excited. Are tickets already on sale?

  • @Marioparty10 No you can sign up for the email notification so you know when that happens. I have already.

    Also They have intense rehearels through March I have heard, so no ticket sales yet, still too early I guess.

  • Seems they hired the girl simply because they wanted a girl there for equality. Nothing against her but I just don't buy that she's the best female singer they could find in a whole continent.

    Besides which, Martel's pretty good. Does he really need backup??

  • Is everybody insane? He's a fantastic singer but that doesn't even make him CLOSE to Freddie.

  • Marc Martel is the only one who embodies professionally the spirit of the great Freddie...certainly deserves to be part of this wonderful project, which will have a perfect success!!

    It would be great to see this band perform in Italy ... lovers of the Queen so much hope!!

  • @silviustube It is not planned thatthe Queen Extravaganza band will play outside USA.

  • Excellent

    Grandma mary

  • I guess with Brandon bow being named official keyboard player and musical director, this really is the final band..

  • Ele é o cara!

  • Marc is great and Jennifer really personifies Freddies early gothic image. Being such an enigmatic performer, no one can snapshot that facade. I hope to see her sing songs like you're my best friend and seven seas of rhye in her black eyeliner!

  • era veramente necessaria questa cosa??? Brian e Roger più invecchiano e più rincoglioniscono, da soli stanno distruggendo il marchio queen!

  • MARC MARTEL AND RAPHAEL DONADIUES NAMES ARE HIDDEN ON QUEENS LAST FIVE ALBUMS

  • dave mustaine on drums? loolol

  • wtf is the girl doing there? Groupie? No girls in queen..... ??

  • @lappwinter This isn;t Queen or a tribute band. It's a band heavily influenced and designed to be like Queen MADE by Queen. And they decided a female vocalist would be cool.

  • Very good but no one can stand in Freddie's shoes not even Paul Rogers so why bother?? There are plenty of Queen tribute bands out there so why are Brian and Roger putting together another one??

  • there shouldnt be a girl...

  • SOMEBODY GET THIS MAN A MUSTACHE

  • @unclesam1024, is unnecessary... Watch "I'm going slightly mad" music clip. =D

  • @unclesam1024 A mustache ain't gonna do it. Somebody get this guy some heart, charisma and stage presence!!!

  • Saweet!

  • @1kalika

  • Yeah ditto 1kalika!

    Happy new year everybody!!!

  • a HAPPY NEW YEAR to all my fellow "marc followers"..(you know who you are)...hope that things can "pick up" so that we can continue the great conversations....HNY

  • @1kalika Happy New Year, 1kalika and everyone!

  • @1kalika To you too! Happy New Year QE/Martel groupies! See you in the next chapter...

  • Ya She knows how to rock n' roll.

  • Lol, the vocalist is just Freddy only w/o moustache :o

  • someone put a mustache on this dude

  • awesome love Marc Martel is so Freddie <3

  • long as marc martel is in there, i can sleep easy tonight.

  • Comment removed

  • Drummer is kinda mehh... Zach ftw :)

  • I wish for the female back up singer part, they had picked Aisha instead- she has more of a 'Rock & Roll' look to her :) 

  • @leahbethm Rock & Roll look and sound, and actually has stage presence. Very confusing indeed.

  • This cant be the final band if my calculations are correct it would be :

    Marc Martel

    Brain May

    Roger Taylor

    John Deacon!

  • @Murkles Absolutely agree :) Marc is definitively the new Freddie, no doubt about it.

  • @trevanian06 No he is not. Freddie was a lot of things

  • @Murkles no

  • @Murkles

    Would love to see Johnny back but it's clear that John won't be coming back

  • @Murkles Jen youtube.com/watch?v=yzwbGvFWLp­o&feature=youtu.be

  • I'm really glad they went with Marc Martel and it looks like the rest of the final band is real solid. But I have to say, as I've been viewing and reading some of the comments on the other videos, that it's a bit sad how harsh and negative many of the comments are towards many of the contestants. I definitely think some were better than others, but a little bit of tact wouldn't hurt. Congrats to the winners and props to those who did their best! On with the show!

  • these guys are great but its a shame they are gonna be just another cover act to cash in. it would be better if they write some original stuff...

  • @rashflash Here's to hoping the QE band (MM) gets to sing an original new song! or two....

  • @maplesugar98 hope you had a great time with your family during Christmas...and now, have a fabulous New Year!

  • Comment removed

  • It's like they just put the girl there for equality or something.

  • Happy Holidays, everyone!

  • @1kalika Happy holidays! ;)

  • Marc Martel FTW

  • Comment removed

  • I think Martel is purrfect.

  • Comment removed

  • Thank God for the Flag for Spam option! I finally broke down and checked out the Raphael links. I'm sorry, but he is AWFUL. He can carry a tune and sings with passion, but he sings with such a heavy accent that he sounds AWFUL covering songs originally sung a native/fluent English speaker. Raphael mispronounces words constantly, softens consonants at the end of words that should be hard, and generally sounds like he's singing with his mouth full of cotton balls...

  • @AdamMethos Farrokh Bulsara (Freddie Mercury) was a Parsi born and raised in Zanzibar and in India. So he was'nt native of the UK. His accent has nothing to do with it. Marc Martel's Somebody to love is as close as i've seen/heard. But this is nowhere near as good as i expected.

  • Comment removed

  • AND BESIDES IT IS CREATIVELY VOID OF MERIT

  • Dont get me wrong i beleve Marc is very talented and has a tremendously powerful voice

    if he is actually singing in his own voice

    but i know he will not be able to sing in a two hour concert with his mimicking voice

    because all mimicks have to concentrate on their mimick and that is why the reality and passion lacks and all mimicks are turning their vocals and contorting them which is a strain

  • Roger Taylor WANTED TO BETTER THE TRIBUTE ACTS

    He wanted people to come see a viable NEW LIVE QUEEN

    So instead of doing the only thing that could TRIUMPH OVER TRIBUTES HE has decided to APE THEM

    his tribute bands could have been A REAL FRESH VIABLE QUEEN EXPLOSION FROM EVERY NATION BUT HE OPTED FOR LESS

    HE CHOSE THE WRONG ANGLE

    HE DIDNT TAKE THE OPPERTUNITY TO INVENT SOMETHING NEW

    SOMETHING THAT COULD DRAW THEM IN EQUAL TO QUEEN

  • anybody who doubts jennifer as a choice should look up her janis joplin covers and other songs, shes awesome too!

  • @Dravenswraith

    Really?

  • @Dravenswraith

    link

  • In reply to somene who said WATCH MARC and you'll forget about this RAPHAEL guy

    @TFase And Watch is operative WORD

    Do you realise watching RAPHAEL DONADIEU IS MORE LIKE WATCHING FREDDIE MERCURY?

    Dont you know it is the passion of the perfomance that counts it has nothing to do with how one looks like somebody or even how one sounds like somebody

    IT IS ABOUT THE GIVING EVERYTHING OF YOURSELF TO THE PERFORMANCE OF THE SONG BECOMING THE SONG

  • RAPHAEL DONADIEU not an impersonator BUT A NEW PRESENCE SINGING THE MUSIC WITH THE SAME 100% POWER GIVING IT ALL

    watch?v=Wc7fWMIIzhw

  • Question: what is good about Queen tribute impersonators answer the music Question: what do people really want when they see a Queen tribute concert Answer: The power and presence of Freddie Mercury which they cannot have because he is dead. Queston So what is the answer other than fat men in tight lycra or parrots? Answer: RAPHAEL DONADIEU not an impersonator BUT A NEW PRESENCE SINGING THE MUSIC WITH THE SAME 100% POWER GIVING IT ALL
  • @DILLONSONG I TOTALLY agree!.....with your first 2 questions and answers!!!!

  • @1kalika

    but not this?

    Question: what do people really want when they see a Queen tribute concert Answer: The power and presence of Freddie Mercury which they cannot have because he is dead. Queston So what is the answer other than fat men in tight lycra or parrots?

  • @DILLONSONG I agree with this as well....(but not the answer that i know that is coming..)

  • @1kalika That is because you want to live in the past you do not want Queens music to truly LIVE LIVE FOR A NEW GENERARTION you want an elvis impersonator rendition that will soon grow old

    THIS WAS AN OPPERTUTNITY

    AND NOW ITS LOST

  • @DILLONSONG you may be absolutely correct, BUT...it IS past...and c'est la vie, and let's leave it there, dillonsong...do not want to drag up all that other sh**....peace?

  • @1kalika

    I WILL NEVER GIVE IN

  • @DILLONSONG so sorry that you misread me...i really am
