    Adam Lambert has one of the purest voices alive today. He’s a true legend.

      Honestly, He probably has the greatest voice of all time, I saw him live with queen, and I saw queen with Freddie, to be truthful, he was better, different, but,better. He could sing the phone book, and still be awesome, so underrated.

    Cher took to Twitter after the performance and struggled to express how moved she was: "Tried to write feelings about Adam Lambert singing 'Believe' in words, but can't seem to. When your senses are overwhelmed all can you feel with your [heart emoji]," adding: "I was shocked and over the MOON."

    Cher reportedly said recently ‘that was one of the greatest vocal performances of any song by anybody’!

  • @marlenemalin9808
    @marlenemalin9808 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +40

    He said he was nervous when he did this performance. You can see his hand shaking. Anyone else would have not be able to deliver this performance, that is how good his vocal mastery is. Brilliant.

    I think your reaction was one of the most open and honest reactions I have seen of this performance. The fact that your emotions took over is a testament to not only Adam's brilliant vocal performance but his stage presence as well. His facial expressions conveyed his heart felt emotions as well which added more weight to the lyrics. Thank you again or another wonderful reaction. I would love to hear your reaction to one of Adam's original songs, Closer to You, live session.

    Thank you Charlie! My heart is happy now knowing that you've seen this. I can't believe no one had requested this before, I knew it was a special performance that would resonate with you. I was a new mum at the time I saw this so I cried for about an hour afterwards haha (Silly hormones) But even Cher tweeted that she struggled to find words because she was so honoured and overwhelmed. Yay :)

    He also sang with Cindy Lauper at this award show. Kelly Clarkson sang "Fancy" to honor Reba, her mother-in-law at the time. They showed Adam in the audience and, as always, he was an involved listener as Kelly sang.

    If you think this was fabulous because it was superb, I recommend that you watch Adams cover of "Holding out foe a hero". It will blow your mind as well.
    He's such a talented artist and performer. Hence why Queen + Adam Lambert tours have been such an enormous success.

    I love how you felt so strongly about his great performance as I also felt. I have listened to this seemingly hundreds of times as he was so powerful. You should also check out Cindy Lauper and him performing at to close the show singing "I got you Babe" Sonny and Cher's very famous song. Cindy also had a solo before that which as outstanding and the banter between her and Cher was fun.

    If you haven’t heard him sing while he was a contestant on American Idol Season 8, I suggest you give a listen to those. His Ring of Fire, Tracks of My Tears, A Change is Going to Come are a “few” of his standouts to me. Feeling Good wasn’t too shabby either. Enjoyed your honest reaction to this. Adam does that to A LOT of people❣️

    I am so happy that you brought up Cher seeing this and her reaction. After I watched this, I realized where she was, how they were honoring her life, and how much she must have been thinking about during that particular moment. She was trying to keep
    It together. I mean… if we were all crying, can you imagine? She must have been on quite an amazing journey right then, because there was (as you said) enough distance from the song, but … the chord change at 6:38 would have finished me off.

    The man is a Rembrandt and his medium is his voice. Every note precisely and beautifully placed. He even "screams" beautifully. Things like this, being asked to be Queen's lead vocalist. Tell me again how he "lost" American Idol. Oh, and just for funsies, I suggest looking up Adam's performances on Glee. His version of "Marry The Night" is so spot on, someone mixed it into a video of Lady Gaga singing it, and it honest to goddess sounds like a duet. The channel name is Bryan Fernando Velez Flores. Totally worth watching! Let me know what you think, if you don't mind.💙
