I thought that soul has passed it's time long ago... Suddenly all that changed with Emeli Sandé. Her awesome voice and catchy melodies make a perfect blend of modern pop-soul and the video to the song Next To Me represent the artist in her grace. There are also some interesting electro remixes on her youtube [...]

So here's some of that new Gloria Estefan that I blogged about a few weeks back. It's so cheesy, with an appearance by Susan Lucci no less! It's a purposely campy, different direction for Estefan and I don't hate it, I don't think? Unusual, but not totally out of her wheelhouse. And does it sample the Americano beat? If not, it will be remixed with it... One thing's for sure, she looks fantastic and like she's having the time of her life. Get it girl.

Four albums deep and our first introduction to Foxy Shazam has been their latest effort and best album of 2012 (so far) sorry Chairlift, ' The Church Of Rock and Roll .' Surely we're not complaining, that just gives us more material to listen to after we've worn out this album. The best modern day attempt to Queen if you ask us and Eric Nally is playing his Freddie Mercury part very very well. Enjoy their latest single + visual for 'I Like It,' and for you newbies... your band crush can begin.

• Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
• Queen - I Want To Break Free

This disc is being sold by major retailers as a Japanese EMI import but is allegedly a Russian bootleg. Regardless, it is a beautiful package and the two live shows on this disc document what a powerful live act Queen was early in their career. Both shows are sourced from radio broadcasts and are bookended around the release of the band's under-appreciated Queen II album. The first show captures the band a month after Queen II was recorded but six months prior to the album's release. During this show, the band [...]

• Wezz & Wood - Paris In the Rain

Tweet Warm Weather are exactly what you want them to be - a dancey synth pop LA based band with plenty of boyish charm and heart-crushing soaring harmonies. I was first introduced to their heartthrob drum beats and looping silvery harmonies by Lydia from Sunset In The Rearview . It was their EP "Dances" that I heard initially, and I was completely mesmerized by the twirling synth sounds, only to be distracted from these by quilted vocals in [...]

• Queen - We Are The Champions

A review of some classic rock music DVDs, starring Queen's Days of Our Lives, Styx's Grand Illusion/Pieces of Eight Live, and a Doors documentary..

Según informa el Daily Star , Queen volverá a los escenarios este año sin Paul Rodgers. En su lugar, el vocalista que deberá defender el puesto de Freddie Mercury será Adam Lambert , el concursante subcampeón de la octava temporada de American Idol. El 6 de noviembre de 2011 actuó junto a Brian May y Roger Taylor en los MTV EMA's. Su labor no pasó desapercibida porque interpretó tres grandes hits de la banda ("The Show Must Go On", "We Will Rock You" y "We Are the Champions") con una seguridad [...]

This sounds pretty good, a lil snippet from the latest release by Queen Size Records, a small Polish label but I quite like them. This is part of a 7" series with Polish producer Metro, which has featured prominant names such as Rakaa of Dilated Peoples, MED, Wildflower and Guilty Simpson, so it's worth checking out. For more information on the EP and where to buy it, have a look here . Metro: Soundcloud Rakaa: Twitter • [...]

I'm struggling to think of under what circumstances 'giving his job to Adam Lambert' could be considered a tribute to Freddie Mercury . -- Visit No Rock & Roll Fun to comment, complain and kvetch

Yeah you just read the headline and probably started shaking your fist and screaming. Calm down, son, it's not bad news at all. Rolling Stone has confirmed that American Idol alum Adam Lambert will be the new frontman for the legendary rock band Queen. Now I know some young, ignorant rock fans will shriek in horror at this news and will call for Lambert to perish in a terrible way while pining for the spirit of Freddie Mercury to return to earth and take his rightful place [...]

Former American Idol finalist Adam Lambert is the new singer of Queen, as RollingStone.com reports. The long-rumored candidate to replace late singer Freddie Mercury and his successor Paul Rodgers revealed the news in an interview with the UK's Daily Star . "The intention is to pay tribute to Freddie and the band by singing some f-ing great songs. It's to keep the music alive for the fans and give it an energy that Freddie would have been proud of," Lambert reportedly stated. "There's no intention in my [...]

On the 2009 season of American Idol , in which he finished second place, Adam Lambert proved himself to be really good at wailing high notes, whether or not the songs he was singing actually required those high notes. And now he tells the British press that he's about to stand in for one of rock's all-time great high-wailiers: Freddie Mercury. According to the Daily Star , Lambert claims that he'll be joining Queen's Brian May and Roger Taylor at Europe's touring Sonisphere festival: "The intention is to pay tribute to Freddie [...]

Yup.

Ever since Adam Lambert took the stage with Queen at the American Idol finale in 2009 (and again last November at the EMAs), there have been rumors flying that he'll be filling in as the group's frontman on a live tour. "There's more on the horizon," the "Better Than I Know Myself" singer confirmed to us last month when we sat down with him to discuss his album Trespassing . (Look out for the full interview soon!) Looks like he wasn't just pulling our leg —according to UK's [...]
