FIRST TIME HEARING | ADAM LAMBERT - "BELIEVE" | BY CHER - 41st ANNUAL KENNEDY CENTER HONORS! | WOW 

Adam got his start on American Idol. He came in second place but should have won. After Idol, he released several albums. His voice is absolutely incredible. He is now singing with Queen. He has been singing and touring with them for 10 years. I have seen him with Queen twice in concert, the most recent one being 3 weeks ago. You should check out some of his live stuff with Queen, most notably his version of Who Wants to Live Forever, live at the Isle of Wight festival in 2016. It is absolutely beautiful

I love his version of this song. It really makes the lyrics shine.

Adam is one of the best singers out there! He also has been touring with Queen as their front man for quite a while.

Adam is an amazing vocalist.. he has been the front man for Queen now for about 12yrs. Yes he has a solo career too, , his live sessions..Closer to you, Feel something , are amazing ..

I've loved him since his first audition on American idol and I've never heard him sing a bad note!!! ❤

Adam came in 2nd on American Idol. you for sure need to hear his Mad World version

Cher did the original, Adam turned it into a ballad

Queen + Adam Lambert - Who Wants To Live Forever- Live at The Isle of Wight Festival = Fantastic ♥

Adam released his 5th album this past spring and was all over Europe touring. The amazing thing is, he sounds great on a video but he's so much better live. He wasn't using a falsetto either. This is just his head voice. I just saw him a couple of days ago in Denver with Queen and will see them again on Thursday. Adam has some really great solo songs. My favorite album is Velvet and any of the live sessions are great. He did the song On the Moon from his home with just an acoustic guitar player for The James Corden Show and it's amazing! The guy is the best singer I have seen perform live. The second best singer I have seen live is Karen Carpenter. I have been going to concerts for 50 years and have seen some greats.

He has his own songs and tours as the front man foe Queen !!

He is now the frontman for Queen-have to be talented for that gig.

His season at American Idol made me a lifetime fan. Such an amazing talent.

Thanks again my man. Appreciate it. He's been touring as the front man for Queen the last few years. Check out any Queen song with him.

Adam Lambert. American Idol.

LOVE ADAM !!!!

You've definitely heard the original. It's SO different, much faster tempo and was most remembered (I think) for shamelessly using auto-tune to create an electronic effect that made Cher's voice pop in way that most artists at the time were only quietly dabbling in (and not admitting to it). It was one of the first songs that used auto-tune stylistically and not simply as a pitch correcting tool. Adam's version is stripped down and lets his vocal and the lyrics shine. Both are wonderful for such different reasons.

He is touring with Queen as the front man. He does a great job.

Adam has a ton of originals and covers all out of this world!! More Adam and I'll be back!!

Adam Lambert is beautiful singer~~ He honored her in style!!

Adam is with the band Queen now!!❤❤❤

His version of Smokey Robinsons track of my tears is amazing.

Had the great pleasure of seeing Adam in concert with Queen on their 2019 tour. Queen was incredible (of course!) & so was Adam. His voice is crystal clear, no wrong notes, soaring, gorgeous. Speaking of gorgeous, LOVE the pic of Elvis behind you. I also had the pleasure of seeing HIM in concert, twice. He was even more beautiful in person. So much so it was hard to believe he was even real. And he sounded wonderful. God bless him. I've seen many famous artists & singers from Robert Plant to the lady being honored in this video, Cher. But the best voice I've ever heard live was Elvis. And I'd put Adam right up there in the stratosphere too. Goosebump worthy. 💙💫💙💫💙💫💙💫💙💫💙💫💙

Queen was kind enough to perform on AI with Adam Lambert and the winner. There was instant chemistry with Adam Lambert, so when Queen was nominated for the European band awards and won, they needed a singer so they asked Adam to come to Belfast and sing with them, Adam thought it was a one off. Adam's 1st show was in Kiev in front oh half million people, 1 thing led to another & Adam's been the front man for Queen for 10+ years, they are currently touring north america and will tour Japan in 2024. He's released 5 albums, been nominated for a grammy and is involved in multiple projects including opening a restaurant with Roger Taylor in West Hollywood. He hasn't done to bad for coming in 2nd on AI, he's a multimillionaire, has a gorgeous home in the Hollywod Hills and he is well known for his philanthropy and runs his own foungation to help LBGTQ+ youth,

I recommend his live sessions, especially Closer to you from his Velvet album. Adam is fabulous.

adam is with Queen now touring

Adam has so many amazing songs, you cant go wrong. I would start with his first song which is For Your Entertainment, then If I had you, he has so many amazing songs you really cant go wrong. He's also singing with Queen now and is doing Amazing. You will have a lot of fun listening to his music. Its so good. He also does a spoof of Believe and the muffin man, its really good

His own stuff is good. His Queen stuff is good. He is good.

I love this version and I am so glad to see you do it!❤

You ma have heard his “What to do you want from me?” on the radio back in the day so I’d listen to that just to see. Also his performance of “Mad World” on Idol is worth the watch too. ❤

I love Adam's voice. My #2 fave after Elvis. Love the new photo of Elvis in the background!! Love you 2, AB.❤❤❤

an Adam lambert reaction in my subs, wow! Loved him since he was on American idol he’s got amazing vocal range! Particularly fond of his first album For Your Entertainment and his performances as Queen frontman ☺️

Adam with the rock band Queen opened our late Queen Elizabeth ll platinum jubilee in London 🇬🇧 2022 Adam is amazing and has brought Queen back to life since joining them as their front man, nobody has his voice ability, style and is so deserving of all he has achieved. ❤ Adam there is nobody to match you !!!!

He also sings with Queen

Adam Lambert is the best vocalist in the world hands down!!!

The Honors recipients are recognized for their lifetime contributions to American culture through the performing arts-whether in music, dance, theater, opera, motion pictures, or television. 5 people are inducted each year.

Adam's latest album is called High Drama and it's all covers. And it SLAYS.

If you get a chance, I would recommend watching Queen + Adam Lambert performing“The Show Must Go On” at the O2 in 2018.

4:30 "Don't you Luther Vandross me." I'm dead. 🤣

Anything by him is great. Cher did disco version.

My favorite performance by him. Great singer

Sher at 76 can still out sing anyone Me 75 been her fan for 56yr

He should have won American idol

Is perfect for queen. I saw them at work before the pandemic, and Cried

I've been saying that the OG American Idol before they brought it back produced some of this generations best vocalist: Kelly C, Jennifer Hudson, Carrie Underwood, and Adam Lambert. All are phenomenal and if you don't already know from the comments... Adam is the new lead singer of Queen, taking over for Freddie Mercury. Now, that's saying something.

When you make Cher cry with her own song - you have arrived. 🎉

Runnin, lay me down, and ghost town are some you may have heard. Depending on where you live, and for running, what you do (picked up in anime/gaming)

loved this, listen to Whata want from me by Adam Lambert, or anything "Queen" he is their lead singer.

Cher sang believe Adam is honoring her

He is lead singer of queen now!!!!!!

Adam is the new front man to Queen, had to be someone special to step in for Freddie Mercury

He did Cher proud

He performs with Queen now as the lead singer

Please do so many of his songs they are all different and GREAT! Who wants to live forever with Queen at Isle of Wight. Live your honest reaction💕

I Saw you just reacted to ‘Queen’ live aid.. so definitely check some Adam with Queen.. who wants to live forever, I will attach link

That is not falsetto. Adam doesn't use falsetto throughout this cut. This is Adam's natural voice, which has no problem with high chest notes.

Also, he’s the new lead singer of Queen

Adam is my favorite ❤ I've loved him since his American idol days. He's amazing in concert. I'd love to see him with Queen 😍

He is an amazing singer. He's been touring with Queen replacing Freddie Mercury for the last 12 years. This is a Cher song. Her version is more of a dance song.

You definitely should react to Adam Lambert specifically what do you want for me? If I had you ghost town and chandelier he performed it on America’s got talent.

I love this song, especially when Cher is singing it. But Adam is very good with his version. You should listen to Cher sing her song.

Adam has a amazing voice,he deserved to winnn.. and u haven't heard the original 😂😂😂

Adam was runner up on American Idol's 8th season & has been singing with Queen since 2011, after we lost Freddie Mercury. He does a damn good job on his version of Cher's hit 'Believe' & he does amazing on Freddie's hits. Talented guy. I was shocked when I heard him covering Freddie. Shocked in a good way.

Some good songs to get you going on down this Adam Lambert rabbit hole is If I had you, Trespassing and Ghost Town❕❗

❤❤❤

I encourage you to go down the adam lambert rabbit hole. He is always better live than recorded- My fave song is Closer to You - Live Sessions version on youtube. I also love On The Moon when he was on James Cordon during the pandemic. He has an incredibly dynamic and beautuful voice.

React to More Of Adam ❤

Check out his American Idol performances... Black or White Whole Lotta Love Bohemian Rapsody Mad World If I Can't Have You Kiss...the band

I think he’s an example of where his sexual orientation overshadowed his talent. I think they tried pushing that instead of allowing his talent to shine.

My second favorite vocalist right after Steve Perry

If you haven't heard the original, you must be loving under a rock 😂

Check out Velvet album,High Drama album. There his last 2 albums

The look on Cher’s face listening to someone SING a song 1,000 times better than her original performance, which was a cheesy, techno, dance song.

Cher’s original was a club version.

See American Idol season 8

Now do Kelly clarksons of the dance at the Kennedy center

React to him singing Lady GaGa Marry the Night.

You probably wouldn’t recognize her original

The original is more up tempo.

Cher’s original version is very up tempo with quite a bit of auto tune. Club banger

Hopefully this is helpful feedback...I gently suggest if you're going to do cover reviews, it would be good for your supporters if (1) you knew who the original artist was/is (2) heard the original song (3) knew who the "cover" singer is. Otherwise... there's not much point to your reaction. You can see by the many comments that people are telling you this, albeit in a different manner.😊

It's sad to think that the only reason he never won American Idol was because of his sexuality. Sad

Adam bodied this song. I am disappointed in you AB for no replays of the grand finale it deserved aleast 5 times replayed. So go back and edit in some replays. Please 😂.
