I think people are just afraid when life reminds them that they're not eternal. Paul Rodger's fate with Queen is an example of this. "Paul's here, because Freddie's dead? Oh no! Are we gonna die too?". And even if Paul sings 1000 times better than Freddie (he does!) nothing's gonna change. Pity that too many people think that a principle Queen created (Show Must Go On) doesn't work with Queen themselves, and that rock is the music of frontmen.
There shouldn't be a dislike button for this video. I miss Freddie, and I love remembering him by listening to people paying a fair tribute to the God Mercury. thanx for posting.
i think paul rodgers did one hell of a good job covering these queen songs and at least we get to see the other members of queen play these timeless hits even if it is without freddie but as the name of the song SHOW MUST GO ON
hes no freddie ,but he is paul rogers .its not queen ,its both toghter ...i think they need to find a singer that might offer new blood .if they want to keep going
Oh yeh - " The Show Must go on Right Adrian and Barry regardless of Circumstanes "- Were born survivors in this fallen World - God Bless Ya -----------------------Neville Oh yes
Elton John actually sung this a lot better to my surprise. They should have asked Elton to join, at least he'd have put in real emotion.
Not saying Paul is bad. He is a great singer and he could join any band and raise that band tenfold. He is perfect for lots of bands. He just doesn't fit in Queen, that's all.
@Papegambit John Deacon (El bajista de queen) se retiro de la musica, la verdad es una lastima porque es uno de los mejores bajistas del mundo y fue el quien escribio Another One Bites the Dust y I Want to Break Free... pero como no le gustaba figurar nunca se le reconoce mucho...
Am I the only one who thinks that Freddie can't be remplaced? Paul Rodgers doesn't sing the "Show must go" on part and don't move. Freddie had energy, style and an incredible voice. It's not against Paul Rodgers, but Freddie is Freddie
Someone speaking sense finally. I get the impression that most of these people who slag Paul off have no appreciation of his music, and definately didn't see Q+PR live.
WOW!!!!! best version I ever heard! even over freddies(sorry fred) Paul Rogers has so much soul in his voice. and besides hes a good substitide, he was one of freddies favorite singers....
There's one thing to understand: Paul cannot replace Freddie -- and he must't! He has to be the new singer of Queen, not an impersonator of a dead one. He needn't compare himself to anyone. He's a fair enough singer!
i know that nobody can replace freddie mercury but seriously stop bitching, freddie is gone and paul rodgers + queen is the closest your gonna get to the real thing so shut up
Where are you Freddie? Please, come and show some class to all these wanna be singers these days. I believe immortality is not for all, it's a gift from God. A man like Mercury is born 1000 years at a tine. RIP
"Paul blows Freddie's doors off. Much more powerful and dynamic."
After a statement like that, I don't think you have the right to call anyone tone deaf. Anyone with half a grasp of music theory can hear that Paul Rodgers doesn't deserve to carry Freddie's sneakers, let alone sing his songs.
Ummmm, let's see, I've been a professional musician for my whole life, play several instruments, have co-written and played on several songs on the radio, played in front of 20k people, so, I think I know what I'm talking about. What are YOUR credentials?
So the fact that you've played in front of people and been on the radio makes your opinion carry more weight than that of others? I guess that means we should start seeing Colbie Caillat as more than just a set of tits and recognize her for her musical prowess too. Paul has about half the vocal range Freddie did, plus he can't seem to hold a note for any length of time here. Freddie's songwriting was also better and more original than Paul's generic, 70s rock sound.
As a matter of fact, yes it does, seeing as you were questioning my knowledge. Paul's range is different, Freddie couldn't hit a lot of notes live and would either cop out or flat, nor could he hold them live. Paul isn't a studio creation, he hits all his stuff live and was nicknamed "the voice" by his peers. He has one of he most powerful and soulful voices in Rock.. I'm not saying Freddie wasn't great but Paul is an amazing singer that I believe adds a different element to the songs.
Freddie couldn't hit notes or hold them live??? It's obvious you haven't seen any of their live stuff or else you would know that Freddie was a damn good live singer. Watch some Queen DVDs, then come back on here. The fact that you have to brag on YouTube about your credits means you're full of shit.
I have seen him live and watched alot of live footage, he goes low alot and goes flat sometimes. He is not nearly as smooth live. My credits were only stated because my "knowledge" was being questioned. That being said, I have a lot more respect for sartists that can reproduce songs accurately live. It's easy to have great studio vocals when you can take the best of 500 takes done over months and splice them together. What matters is if you can nail it live, one take, every night.
CHRIS THOMPSON is much better!!!

Paul Rodgers is amazing. Those who says he can not sing are obviously tone deaf.
He does the song very differently from the studio version, and of course he would, he's another type of singer. That's why it works!
Imagine if they had gotten someone that would try imitating Freddie! That would've been the worst thing they could do.
