Heathy Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 2 hours ago, SH73 said: fit in a band Axl Rose in AC/DC Completely disagree. He was great with AC/DC at the Olympic Stadium a few years back. Aside from nailing the songs, he looked like he was living the dream. I guess this post is about replacement singers, because (like it or not) the singer is almost always the focal point for an audience and everyone else is essentially a backing musician. A change in a high profile frontman can be hard for some fans to take, but - so what. And just for the record, I think that Adam Lambert is awesome with Queen. 3 Quote

I think he sounds fine on the WC with his feet against the door to help shove one out. It's a singing style that makes me want to reach for the laxative to ease things along for him. Eat more fruit Axl. Edited June 22, 2019 by SpondonBassed Quote

Stub Mandrel Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Hmm. When did he drop the 'W.'? I haven't seen it used for decades! 1 Quote

PaulWarning Posted June 23, 2019 Posted June 23, 2019 always fascinates me how Paul Weller gets away with it, and I like the Jam, I always remember a review of an early Jam album from years ago, "It's like listening to a punch drunk boxer" 1 Quote

His sanitised, buy-it-for-your-kids-to-give-to-grandma-at-Christmas operatic voice sticks out like a sore thumb in that situation. I've also heard classical singers doing pop material, and it has the same issue. Feels not like a fusion, so much as a clash. Very much this for me. Oh, and Paul Rogers (absolutely top vocalist) with Queen just sounded wrong to me. Similarly, Brian May playing Alright Now with his signature tone seemed wrong too. That venture was less than the sum of its parts for me. 1 Quote

Guest oZZma Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 The Daughters could have been such a great band with a different singer. I really can't stand his singing, he ruins everything. Quote

Personally, I don't rate that Adam bloke who's actually in it now. John Deacon was right. Queen was over when Freddie died. Quote

In addition, we need another topic to cover his playing of the gob iron. That hee-haw style of his... it almost makes me want to listen to Larry Adler. Almost but not quite. Quote
