Hey, Scaramouche, will you do the fandango?

Adam Lambert is Brian May’s chosen one to front Queen — so is the American ready to be Freddie full-time?

Filling Freddie Mercury’s shoes must rate as rock’s most daunting situation vacant. Fronting a performance by Queen, to be seen by a TV and internet audience of millions, with only one week’s notice is certainly a challenge few established singers would be willing to accept. Tarnish their memories of Mercury and Queen’s fans will never forgive you; try to outdo the flamboyant front man and you’ll fail.

"Better Than I Know Myself" lyrics

Better Than I Know Myself

Written by: Claude Kelly
Produced by: Dr Luke & Cirkut
Performed by: Adam Lambert

VERSE:
Cold as ice,
And more bitter than a December
Winter night:
That’s how I treated you.

And I know that I –
I sometimes tend to lose my temper,
And I cross the line.
Yeah, that’s the truth.

PRE-CHORUS:
I know it gets hard sometimes,
But I could never
Leave your side
No matter what I say.

Dying from Adam Lambert Portland AI concert videos

My mind has gone to mush. It has been mush for the last 2 hours. *DYING* YouTube and Twitter are both blessings and curses. I can’t even type properly anymore

I don’t know if I’ll post anything else in this space. Maybe later when I’ve recovered.

No wait.

I’ll just post my Portland YouTube playlist here. OMG I’m a genius.

And presenting to you my favorite performance of the fuking night:

Twitter as a form of mass protest

And no I’m not talking about the Iran election.

I’m on vacation today. Woke up early and visited my newest internet guilty pleasure ONTD_Ai because it’s just too fking enjoyable to pass. (Not to mention I’ve been in a bit of a depression the last couple of days and needed an avenue to vent.)

I found myself embroiled in the start of a whole controversy pertaning to homophobia related to a certain “scream on” reality person’s family over a private dinner comprising the cast of our favourite TV show.
