He's way more Emo than Stadium Rock and has clearly been influenced by Robert Smith just like all those bands, including Tokyo Hotel. Mercury wasn't just a great voice, he was a great instrumentalist and songsmith surrounded by a band who was really talented. I haven't seen Adam pick up on instrument yet. Not that people can't write songs for him but....if they're trying to imitate Mercury by doing something they think Queen would've written it won't work on the purists. Of course the industry isn't into developing talent, it's into selling record, churning and spitting out the assembly line of interchangeables.

The resemblance between the two in terms of vocals is uncanny. They need to get over their homophobia where Adam is concerned and realize that his sexuality has nothing to do with the great talent that he possess.Reneehttp://www.womanist-musings.comnoreply@blogger.com
