JAKARTA - In a recent interview with Total Guitar, Brian May was asked if there would be a new album Queen featuring singer Adam Lambert.
Runner-up "American Idol" Season 8 is collaborating with May and drummer Roger Taylor as the lead vocalist for Queen + Adam Lambert since 2011.
"Well, we're already in the studio," May said. "We did find some ideas in the middle of one of the tours. But it never reached a place where we felt it would be true. So we haven't chased it so far. That's all I can say. So I really don't know."
"But I think there's a bit of a barrier there. I think if people see Queen on the record label, they still want Freddie (Mercury) to sing. And I don't blame people for that."
"There are people on Instagram who are annoyed with me: 'Why are you still continuing Queen without Freddie?' And I said, 'Don't tell me what to do. I did what I thought I had to do,'" continued the guitarist.
"There are people who feel we shouldn't appear on stage without Freddie. But I think it will be very sad, and that's also not what Freddie wants. He wants us to continue to grow. And of course, because we continue and develop, the legacy remains alive.
"You know, I have had this frequent conversation with Freddie's sister, Kash. She also got a question like that: 'Why do they do this without Freddie?' And she really understands what we do. She said, 'This is what Freddie wants. She doesn't want her songs or band songs to be museum works. She wants those songs to live.' And that' And that's what we do. We liven up Queen's legacy. Of course."
