Two of my all-time faves together!!! Love it! Especially that soulful ending ... and wow, for not having really rehearsed it and Melissa moving in and out of the mic, it was still pretty great.
@@gentleraine480 , it was awful! I’m older than she is and have liked her music for a long time. I think she was trying to out sing Adam, and was screeching by the end. Too much force on the guitar and it turned into a painful jam session. She cannot out sing Adam, but if you know him, you know he doesn’t outsing/upstage anyone. More than one run through the song was needed. It’s too bad, maybe a softer sound with a build up toward the end…..
@@mdcvalentine Agreed. Talented but respectful. I have a huge catalog of Adam’s music from American Idol and beyond. Love Melissa but not many in her age group (which I share, by the way) can complete with Lambert’s vocals.
Always liked Melissa Ethridge, i notice Adam had to adjust his voice to more raspy to tune it with her, he has a great ear and an awesome performer and singer of course.
Duets are for blending voices. Adam’s really good at that. Melissa’s voice is one of a kind- nobody could blend with her unless she scaled it back a bit.
@@meezursrule Your right i thought she wasn't trying to sing just make a noise...but he never tries to stand out when he is singing with someone he always supports them. She would sound ok if she wasn't singing with someone who can actually sing..i like her tone ...i prefer tone over perfect singing when the person can't sing great...that's why i prefer ginger over sporty spice..who can sing perfect notes but still sounds awful. Adam never says a bad word about anyone...good parenting.
She sounds like an actual rock star performing live onstage. He sounds like a pop star performing her song on american idol. I've heard a million versions of her song at the karaoke bar, and Adam's wasn't any better or worse than the last hundred ppl I've heard, but none of them compare to her. Adam sings pretty. I like him. But this was not him singing background, or following her at all. They just did two different versions of the song and she had to belt to be heard whenever they sang together, obviously the result wasn't good. Maybe it would've been better if her mike was closer or if they actually shared a mike, but it's kinda silly to complain about the original artists voice and instrument for not making him sound better, she could've (and has) carried the entire performance alone and it would've been (and is) amazing. This is one of her most famous songs, this song is more well known by itself than Adam Lambert is. It's sung around the world, in many languages, covered by hundreds of other musicians on stage and sung by countless millions in karaoke bars and talent shows for the past several decades. If Adam couldn't sing the song he wouldn't have the nerve to call himself a singer. But this time, he didn't perform well. He tried to sing like it was just him and it wasn't I'm an Adam fan, but I'm also a Melissa fan, and a music fan. I've been hearing this song my whole life and her voice is amazing. I was thinking how how he sounded until she got a line. When she started singing, it made him sound like a filtered radio edit. Like Micheal Buble or Celine Dion tryna sing a rock song. Good voice, bad fit.
@@pvp6077 Oh, please. She was way overdoing it. I think she was a bit intimidated by Adam. There was no need for her to screech as much as she did. Adam just went along with it because he’s always a very polite and gracious partner when dueting with someone. If he had really let loose, he would have blown her away.
@@svirajmi I think nearly everyone has after being stuck at home with the pandemic going on 😆 my friends & I have for sure.

WTF? Individually....both talented performers. But this collaboration sounded like drunk co-eds at a Karaoke bar. On the plus side, they both look great!
Obviously, I'm an Adam fan; However not everything he does is perfect. He is singing over her. A duet should blend so the two voices complement and literally become one.
I don't get that he's singing over her. She backs off her mic quite often. They said they rehearsed the song once together and then decided to wing it.
if you know Melissa then you know no one can sing over her ! she can belt it out over anyone, like Joplin - listen to how she ends this song, should say it all
slynnc kitty .. just as I thought ... it sounded like they were winging it .. I'm surprised ADAM didn't have the words in front of him!! Anyone knows that two people who have never sung together before need more than one rehearsal to sound totally in sync ... ADAM did a fine job!! The important thing is .. they had FUN!! LAMBERT Outlaw
First time in my life I truly did not enjoy hearing Adam sing - pair of Siamese cats in chorus. Sorry ppl just my opinion. I truly adore the man, but not here 😭
I think this was an impromptu performance & under the circumstances ADAM did very well .. probably was given a song sheet before they performed & ADAM being the trouper that he is just sang it the best he could which IMO was damn good!! I myself never heard this song sung or for that matter never heard Melissa Ethridge sing before I saw this video!! LAMBERT Outlaw
@@tatubert8210 I have heard Melissa sing it back in the day and was very good. This was awful and my understanding is she wanted it to be more spontaneous, so only one run through before. I don’t believe that is Adam’s style, it must have been stressful!
Lmao he can learn her song at the karaoke bar like everyone else but can't keep up with her real life stage presence, the fact that she basically had to scream to be heard over him is down to the sound crew and whoever put her mike all the way up there while he has his practically down his own throat. I love Adam's voice but he needs more experience working with other people. I think Melissa had too much confidence in his voice and ability to improvise, she should've just bit the bullet and let him rehearse with her a few more times.
@@pvp6077 Adam has plenty of experience working with other people. He has been on stage since the age of 10 or around there. He has such a powerful voice that it is hard for most singers to compete with him. She never was a good vocalist. I'm surprised she would even agree to sing with one of the worlds best singers.
I must have watched something different, that was awful! Two musicians who haven’t performed together before needed to rehearse more than once. When you choose to “organically” collaborate, you risk sounding like a cat fight by the end.
My sentiments exactly, Adam was definitely holding back, and you can tell that Melissa was definitely impressed! And those of us who really know Adam and his vocal range realized he held back when he didn't hit none of his soprano notes, 🤷♀️
I can say no more about how Adam execute any songs that is handed to him!!! Unbelievable talent!!!
Adam Lambert is one of the only singers that can match Melissa note for note without even a rehearsal
I think he surpassed her.
They blew the roof off the place! Great duet! Thanks so much for posting the entire song. LOVED IT!
MY GAWWWWD this man can sing ABSOLUTELY ANYTHINGGGG! One of the BEST, MOST TALENTED, PROFESSIONAL singers EVERRR! (And SO DAMN SEXY! Beautifullll).
He is absolute PERFECTION!!!!
Kim Hardy YESSSS! Agree!
WOW Adam can sing anything and with anyone ❤❤❤😊😊😊😮😮😮😮😮😮
Two of my all-time faves together!!! Love it! Especially that soulful ending ... and wow, for not having really rehearsed it and Melissa moving in and out of the mic, it was still pretty great.
Thank you GLAAD for posting this!
Awesome Duet! Love Adam And Melissa! 😍
thanks for all the love ❤️
we totally agree, Melissa..."Oh-ohhh, Adam"
I love when Melissa just screeches into the microphone :D Just great
Class...pure class🎶🎤❤
Great performance. Thank you.
No matter who is standing next to Adam he is so Professional and can take any challenge at any time 💙💙💙
Tactfully put!
If he duetted with one of my Siamese cats, it probably wouldn't sound much worse...
Wow amazing job! Adam kept up with Melissa that’s impressive great job both of you! Melissa is absolutely amazingly talented love her music 🎶💫👌
Adam Can Keep Up With EveryOne
Great duet and this is one of the best song ever!!!
The Queen of Rock and the frontman of Queen… What a great combo!
Thank you very much for sharing 🙏 Such a wonderful duos 💯 Love Love Love 😘😘😘😘
Another awesome performance
Adam Lambert 😍
Wow...Adam is being so respectful. Great song, but Adam could blow her out of the water. He's got the pipes.
She's no slouch either, please! she's a legend
2:20 OMG on FIRE!!!
Haha I love Melissa's face at 4:27
Como eu amei ver o Adam cantar sem ser com a banda Queen já enjuou aquela banda volta logo Adam a cantar solo pfv
Adamm💜💜💜
Wow!! Love it!!!
Melissa looks Amazing!
Brent Kamrath And sounds even better...Like fine wine!
She does! I'm loving how she's rocking that smokey eye makeup!
Goals!!! Love Melissa!!! Adam too!!!💞

MAGIC💕
Damn!!!✨🌟
Waoooo dammmmm too good.👍👍👍👍

Adam and Melissa nailed it.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a dream team!!

l love both.
l am Adam fan,but l would like to see Mellisa at her concert too....

She sounds like Janis Joplin at the end. 😍😍😍🤗🤩
She sounds like a Gawd awful imitation of Janice Joplin at the end.....
She doesn’t horrible
❤❤❤
God YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
Melissa made it so obvious that she had never sang with a male singer the likes of Adam,🤷🏻♀️ What she say? DAM ADAM! 🙏🏽
I would sure love to know what Adams, Mom & Dad,' would have to say" about their son's performance, here" with Melissa"🙏🏽
🌟🔥🌟🔥🌟🔥🌟🔥🌟🔥
Oh YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sang it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Adam out did Melissa on this song
wow. Sound man please.
He was singing to high for this song. Love them both
It's only beer that makes you fun, when you're sober you're kind of glum...
Melissa was way to loud like she was trying to over power Adam. I could barely hear Adam between her voice & guitar playing 😢
She's dreadful. She sounds like she's trying to drown Adam out rather than sing with him. He sounds like he's trying to make the best of it.

Fantastic. Mary Chapin Carpenter is the only other woman I see play a 12 string
the girl can make an Ovation 12 string ring!
her guitar is so high and annoying 😷
I like the song. I enjoy the artists. Just sounded like they could have done way better with a better guitarist.
Hate to say this but this performance confuses the hell out of me 😶 everyone's saying that they only had one rehearsal? Wow.
He's gain some weight lately, hasn't he?

Jaqui_0 he can't blend with her here, she sounds like a tractor 🚜 in the field and has absolutely no breath...

Veronica Matchett that's not singing... 🙂

l think Adam here very tension and nervous.
He needs more relax and go back to theese,,old glamberts days" !!!!!

I don't see any tension or nervousness.

the sound guys should be fired. Horrible mikes
Their voices don't blend very good. I'd like to hear Adam sing it by himself. She's terrible.

He sounds like he is holding back like he is sick or something
Adam is trying not to outsing her. So he is holding back.

Nice to hear two female vocals
idiot comment !
Come on MM Troll, M3 get lost I think you have trolled every one of Adam's videos, M3 you are a very jealous troll.
