quick translation:

Brian May dueting with Mika?

A british newspaper recently stated that Brian May would do a duet with singer Mika. This would happen during the Brit Awards due next febraury in London.
Mika became famous this year after the hitsingle 'Grace Kelly'; a song that got recognition all over the world. His voice was compared to Freddy Mercury's.
if Brian May wouldn't want to be a part of the collaboration, the plan would be to ask Rufus Wainwright for a collaboration with the young singer.

Other Queen related news: a new Queen-tribute CD will be released on the 11th of November. Rumor is that amongst the singers will be Guns N' Roses singer Axl Rose and Vince Neil of Motley Crue

The album will be called ''Rock N' Royalty: a very special tribute to Queen'' and Robbie Williams will also be on it. There'll also be a 'guest-apperance' from Brian May.

-------------

So nothing new really. I wouldn't be surprised if Axl would indeed be on the record, but the record is being released on november 11th..wouldn't we have some official word about it by now? I mean, Axl confirmed being on Baz's record way before the actual album was due to be released..why wouldn't he say something about the Queen record?

There's no way I could buy something with Robbie Williams on it, I can't stand his music, and the thought of him covering a Queen song is just wrong.

Thanks for the translation?

are you kidding me, Robbie williams is awesome!  I'd rather see him covering a Queen song than Vince Neil. and you're welcome

Robbie Williams is a great entertainer with a great voice. He'd easily fit in with a Queen tribute album. I'm curious to see what develops on this though, the Axl rumor has been floating around for a while on it.

The only one promoting this would be the record company since there are various artists. Axl didn't promote Baz's songs, Baz did and that's because he is a huge fan of Axl. But something tells me this is legit because over the weekend, I heard a couple tributes to Queen on the radio and such. Is there an anniversary coming up? Or something to commemorate?

Also, I am not a fan of Clay Aiken but I can see why they would put him on this album. He does have great pipes and a range like Freddie Mercury did. Not many singers these days can handle vocal (unless they are doing an interpretation) ranges of Freddie Mercury. They did a Queen night on American Idol and all the contestants sucked IMO. You really have to know your stuff vocally to take on some of the classic Queen songs. But again that is only my opinion.

the only anniversary i know of would be the death of Freddie Mercury on November 24 1991. hope this album rumour is true.  although im struggling to imagine Axl singing "Party" off "The Miracle" album

robbie williams is actually pretty cool.  he's kinda funny to watch perform and in interviews.  It would be lame to not buy something with axl on it just because he was.

[The Rhiad]

anyone know what happened with this. According to the date it was released.

[Calcy]

Khasoggi's Ship, the song after Party on The Miracle, is much better and I would love to hear Uncle Axl sing along to that one!

[axlssis]

has anyone found this actually in a record shop?  it supposed came out yesterday

[Bandita]

I found this on a Wolfmother site regarding this CD


[update] Having looked into this story a bit more it appears that it might be nothing more than something some idiot made up a year or more back, and it?s gradually spread around. I guess we will see in a month whether there is anything to it or not! In the meantime, take the post below with a pinch of salt ?

It's just funny because if you google the title of the CD you get 73000 hits but not one to actually buy it!

[axlssis]

i think it's safe to say it's just another one of those pesky rumors
