That Marc Martel guy is really fab. Felt he's a bit restrained for Freddie though, needs to let rip a little. Then he'd be totally unsurpassable surely. But his tone is awesome, he has the same timbral quality as Freddie and even a look of him. The band doin BR lacked passion for me, very starchy and stiff( only my opinion though). If you merged the first singer with the second band I think it'd be totally nailed and I'd be scramblin to see that show.

Someone should give them thar Queen boys a nudge tell 'em there's someone to fill Freddie's shoe's...

Hi Mick ,if you look at Queen Tribute band blog sep21,John Wilkinson put something on about this,but your right,this Mark Marcel bloke is F*******g awesome...T

Terry, I saw that yep. There are some pretty good queen tribs out there but this guy is Freddie reborn. I just showed it to my wife (then showed her the video. Fnarr). She was as astonished as I was.

Wow! I actually think that was a better performance than the Paul Rodgers thing. No doubt the Paul Rodgers people will disagree, but I wonder if Brian and Roger are onto it? As happened with Arnel Pineda and Journey.
You never know folks, Queen could do a lot worse.

Awesome, simply awesome !

Best Freddie tribute I've heard by far. I agree "he's a bit restrained for Freddie though, needs to let rip" but that's nit-picking in view of the big picture.

I wonder if Brian May knows of this guy?
As much as I love Paul Rodgers I think this guy could do a Freddie Trib far better!
who'da thought there could be 2 freddie's?
