Queen certainly found someone to love Adam Lambert. Since joining forces with the finalist of "American Idol" for a series of concerts in 2012, the band led rock radio in the 70s and early 80s has enjoyed tremendous success, and the public has welcomed Lambert as heir to the legacy of Freddie Mercury on stage. They have been filling stadiums around the world for five years, and just announced a tour of 25 cities in North America starting on June 23 in Phoenix. But there is something that still have not dared to do: record a studio album with new songs of Queen. Despite his success at the box office, it is something that will not happen in the future fencing, or at all. "It's a question we constantly, but it really is not something we have talked a lot internally," Lambert, who maintains a solo career between tours Queen said. "It's entirely possible. But what would it be? I would never record a song that Freddie recorded because that would be sacrilege. If grabáramos something new, 'Queen' be called? Would we have a supergroup name? ".

Lambert said he and the founding members Brian May (guitar) and Roger Taylor (drums) have not recorded demos of anything new. May said the band has taken as reference the insipid response to a studio album they did with Bad Company singer Paul Rodgers in 2008, "The Cosmos Rocks". "The world as it turned a blind eye and think we subconsciously we absorbed the message that people wanted to hear Queen with Freddie," May said. "That's what they expected, they did not want anything else. I do not know whether or not a successful conclusion, but that is the message we perceive, so we focused on the live ". Taylor said recording a new studio album "seems obvious, but do not actually make plans well in advance. The band is going great "as well. May is more open to the idea of ​​a new album now that Lambert is on board. "If the time came, if there was a real reason to record a new album, a new song, if the right song came easily we would," he said. "But for now we are happy touring".

This involves riding a whole new show, with a new list of songs, lighting, video screens and a new way to interact with the public. The game of Mercury with the crowd, which dared to match your vocal a cappella acrobatics, and acoustic accompaniment of May in "Love of My Life" and "39", integral and imperishable parts of a Queen concert turned. When Mercury died in 1991 of complications from AIDS, "Brian and I thought everything was over," Taylor said. "But Adam Lambert has extraordinary talent and fits perfectly with us." "It was good when it started, but now feel it is more automatic," Lambert said. "I feel like I've gotten sneak into these songs and I can now play with them."
