The Show Must Go On: The Queen + Adam Lambert Story

Never heard Adam Lambert sing before this documentary. Who can replace Freddie? A guy off some talent show? Please.... Boy was I wrong. He's just what Queen needed. A very clever addition from Taylor and May. Lambert has the goods. I hope he gets the success he deserves. Great documentary.

"We thought that when Freddie died that Queen died" /Brian May/ ...and you would be absolutely correct. The Show Must Go On is, arguably, one of the greatest revitalisation attempts in both music and film history.

But let's be honest; the patient has flatlined, no amount of. CPR is going to evoke any signs of life.

This, by no means, implies that this isn't a great eulogy, a great homage. We are attending the wake and, understandably, there are great things to be said.

It is sad, very sad. And There is hope, there is always hope. Futile hope that somehow the beloved deceased will spring back to life. Hope is the last to leave us, but this point is one of no return.

Despite all our dreams, this is the wake - we are not witnessing the resurrection.

Seeing how the band recovered and dealt with Freddie's passing but after they found Adam it seemed like it started to get repetitive with the cheerleading about how incredible the new lineup is. Could have ended about 20-30 min earlier. Oh well, probably worth a watch if you really love queen.

No one can replace Freddie and it's a good thing that queen never tried to. It's two great stories in itself merged into one. You could easily have a film of life after Freddie as well as a story of just Adam Lambert. To see a lot of behind the scenes information was pretty wonderful to see. There's a lot that you will find out from Adam Lambert and queen. A lot of this can be said to be influenced by success of the movie Bohemian Rhapsody and you can tell that this piggy backs on that success. Good overall but it felt like it dragged on a bit more in one area when there was so much more that it could have covered.

Iove the whole idead of the documentary being made just to show how much people don't know that Queen and Adam Lambert didn't came from thin air. They have worked hard to get here. As an Adam Lambert fan for 3 years i never had heard Queen because i was born in 1999 and outside US. Even my parents didn't knew them. Their music would've been completely unknown to me if it wasn't for Adam Lambert joining and creating magic with the greatest guitarist and amazing drummer of an iconic band. People still hates on Adam but i thoroughly believe if Adam wasn't there working hard to give the feels of the amazing queen catalogue of songs we the new generation and future ones would've never get that essence. Adam Lambert is the greatest singer in the world
