Words by Cher : That's one of the greatest vocal performances of any song by anybody,” Cher told The Guardian.

Cher was being honored. Adam and Cyndi Lauper performed "I Got You Babe" as well. It was a great segment for Cher.

Cher was being inducted into The Kennedy Center Honors. 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. They induct 5 each year. He was asked to honor her by signing this song. Adam came in 2nd place on American Idol. Been with Queen since 2011 as well as a solo career. Can't believe he's 42 years old.

Hey hey hey - he's 41. Adam's a tad sensitive about his age. To me, he is the single best vocalist of our time. You should hear him sing opera! ILHSM

There's nothing like being at an Adam Lambert show. He doesn't play in large arenas usually on his solo tours. His voice is so powerful it vibrates thru you. You hear a lot of wows during his shows. Seeing him with Queen is incredible too! He sings the songs in the key they were written in and the shows are incredible! I was so happy to finally go to a couple last year!

@MadishapesF 3 месяца назад

Yes! And his is the only voice that’s ever impacted me like that.

I love this performance not only because it was so beautiful, but it sat a lot of people back down that criticized his singing without actually listening to any of his work. For me, what really sets Adam Lambert apart from other singers are his transitions. He has such amazing control.

During a recent interview, highlighting the 25th anniversary of Believe, Cher looked back on that performance of Adam Lambert's cover of "Believe" and what it meant ot her. Cher told The Guardian, "That's one of he greatest vocal performances of any song by anybody." Don't be surprised to see musical theatre casts in the audience, one of Adam's best friends is in the cast of Hamilton and Adam himself, was the understudy for Fiyero for approximately 2 years in LA before he auditioned for AI. He was in the Children's Metropolitan Theatre company, from about the time he was 8 so musical theatre has been part of his life for almost forever.

@VWvanFan 3 месяца назад

It's a risk o take such an iconic song and then just totally change the vibe, but when I heard this the first time I felt like I finally understood the soul of the song: "I have enough self-respect now to see I deserve better than a life with you. I am strong and I am going forward to a better life." When you're out with your friends getting over that loser, the Cher version would be preferred; but at home you can belt this one out to remind yourself it's gonna be okay,.

less than 24 hours prior to this he was performing in the UK on Strictly Come Dancing, jetted to Wash DC and did this! There is a reason Brian and Roger chose HIM to be their frontman, you haven't heard anything yet, Sleepwalker is a classic, written by Ryan Tedder of One Republic and says Adam's version the THE version... the live GlamNation tour rendition in Indianapolis is epic

How sad for your generation that you have to be excited by a performer NOT faking it. I saw Queen five times between 1977 and 1982, and when you're in the room with greatness, you know it. I'm delighted to see a fellow headbanger who can appreciate talent in ALL its forms. I'll be 60 this year, young man, so, you've got a lot to look forward to. I look forward to more of your work.

Adam won't lip sync, even doing the video for the movie 2012, they told him to lip sync and he felt he can't put the right emotion into it if he's not singing, so he sang along with the track.

@ToniSolin 3 месяца назад

I've been following Adam since he appeared on American Idol in 2009 and I adore this man's voice. He could sing anything and I would listen. That being said, my all time favorite singer was Freddie Mercury and I was thrilled when Adam joined with Queen, he's now been singing with them for over 10 years. One of the best performances with this collaboration, in my opinion, is "Who Wants To Live Forever" at the Isle of Wight festival in 2016, shortly after the massacre in the Florida nightclub. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9C6DPHosZZg.html
