Brian and Roger still have it, I actually enjoyed seeing them on their solo projects more than with Queen, and I like Queen and grew up on them a lot.
They are damned with anything they try to do as Freddie is impossible to replace, Adam is clearly a talented singer and has thrown himself into the camp showman role to replace Freddie, but he can't do it, no-one can.
I don't like all the operatic trills such as the somebody to love stuff he tried to pull off, but that's him trying to show off his vocal capability to show he's not a hired gun (which he is).
I'm glad they are doing stuff, Brian and Roger should be out doing stuff and they clearly still love it, but really no matter who they get to front it will fail because they cannot be Freddie.
Not sure why but that was my reaction.
The guy can sing. He also seems to have quite a good stage presence. But I got bored.
May be I'm also in the grumpy bastard phase
When you're frontman and main songwriter dies or leaves its a totally different ball game.
Guns n roses as it is now should not be using the name either. But if slash were to call his band GNR it is even worse.
Half of the band or one original member in the case of GNR doesn't mean shit and is a total misuse of the name.
John Deacon had the right idea in stepping away from it all.
It should read 'May and Taylor featuring Adam Lambert' playing the songs of Queen
Taylor May'd.
Supportact said: [my style is] probably more an accumulation of limitations and bad habits than a 'style'.
Anyway the vast majority of bands carry on with the name, with even only one or sometimes no original members
May & Taylor are not breaking any convention or dishonouring their lost bandmate as far as I can see
I think it would be less appropriate if they avoided using the name "Queen"

I don't get why people talk about Queen differently to other bands that lose a member - unless I've missed it, I haven't heard these comments about other bands. People might say they prefer a previous lineup but rarely say they should quit.
I'm just watching it now - he's good a good voice, but I preferred Paul Rodgers.
To be fair though,guy's living the dream and he was chosen by Brian and Roger so he must be doing something right.
