@rakapratama1242

Yeah
Here we stand or here we fall
History won't care at all
Make the bed, light the light
Lady Mercy won't be home tonight

You don't waste no time at all
Don't hear the bell but you answer the call
It comes to you as to us all
Yeah, we're just waiting for the hammer to fall, yeah

Oh every night, and every day
A little piece of you is falling away
But lift your face the Western way
Build your muscles as your body decays, yeah

Tow the line and play their game
Yeah, let the anesthetic cover it all
'Til one day they call your name
You know it's time for the hammer to fall

Rich or poor or famous
For your truth it's all the same
(Oh no, oh no)
Oh, lock your door but rain is pouring
Through your window pane
(Oh no)
Hey yeah, baby, now your struggle's all in vain, yeah

For we who grew up tall and proud
In the shadow of the Mushroom Cloud
Convinced our voices can't be heard
We just wanna scream it louder and louder and louder

What the hell are we fighting for?
Ah, just surrender and it won't hurt at all
You just got time to say your prayers
Yeah, while you're waiting for the hammer to, hammer to fall

Hey, yes
Let's get on the floor, yeah
Hammer
You know
Hammer to fall

Yeah

Hey, woo hoo
Ha ha, ha ha

I've been waiting for the hammer to fall
Give it to me one more time

To be honest, as great as Queen are, they and their fans were VERY, VERY fuken lucky to get a legend like Paul singing for them in the first place — he is right up there with the very best like Ian Gillan, Robert Plant, David Coverdale etc

i really love Paul Rodgers voice and lets face it if he wasnt doing this you wouldnt be able to enjoy the Queen experience at all. So he's done all you Queen fans a massive favour by stepping up so you can still relive those glory days when Freddie was still with us!! He always admitted he was no Freddie thats why he put his own spin on the songs! Enjoy but please dont diss Paul!!

@zebic300

He has a great voice on his own. And it really comes out on this version of the Hammer to Fall.

@AbleBodied

Freddie, openly admitted he was no Paul Rodgers, when the band was discussing his vocals during a rehearsal.
Freddie was looking at Paul as a mentor.
Full circle.

You guys are kidding, of course. Paul Rodgers is every singer's favorite singer. He's a musician's musician, as is Brian May. If you had been in a band and you lost Freddie you'd be overjoyed and in tears to get Paul Rodgers. He's just plain excellent. Of course he sounds different, but this is a different band. Period. Cheers, peace all.

I think all of us (Queen fans) can say - Freddie was one and only frontman for the band called Queen...but we all know that Freddie is gone. So keeping respect for the previous years and HIS genius I'm watching "new" Queen and thinking - It's a fuckin' awersome version, stage is on fire, and Paul is one of the greatest voices of rock n roll, freddie will be pround of him. The still ROCKS and have fun. GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!!!

@JordanJ39 Not wrong. I took my own son and a newly acquired foster son to see this concert in Sheffield. Josh had never before been to a rock concert. He moaned a bit that his ears were ringing!! And I was staggered at Paul Rodgers' performance. Gotta be a bit scary trying to fill Freddie's shoes. But he did it superbly. Overall the sound was far more bluesy/rocky and sleazy. If anything, I thought the show was better than ever.

@anakina1

13y↑2

I have to admit, I enjoyed the song. PR deserves props for touring with Queen and having to endure the PR bashing. A mild fan of his past work with BC and Free, I thought this was very good.

@Ashes2Ashes1981

13y

it's funny when people talk about this song changing just because paul was in the band. Actually, Brian sung this song live on a solo album in 1998 as a Japanese bonus track and it was the same version - he even performed the song like this on a uk tour he did in 2001/2 (so many people think it was new for this line up, or Paul's idea, but I'm afraid not)

Everyone needs to remember though, Paul Rodgers is their frontman, not apart of Queen. Look at the albums and the tour names... It says quite clearly Queen & Paul Roders They dont actually say he's apart of Queen? Plus, I think he's a bloody good singer and does Freddie justice! :) Plus I think we'd rather have Queen & Paul Roders then no Queen at all? Am I right? =]

@theclawyaww3740

That Queen replaced a legend like Paul Rogers for Adam Lambert is the greatest crime in Rock History

@anarelle

I'd like to hear brian sing blues... like he did with the song "sleeping on the sidewalk". No, he doesn't have a powerful voice, I agree on that. But isn't it great when he sings love of my life and hits the high notes? I'm a girl and I don't think I can go that high :P

@pompa04

15y↑1

I like the new intro and their voices goes very well together but I say the same as kaleluk31; Brian schould have sing instead of PR.

@Lawen78

17y

Yea, god damn this is some good shit, Brian can't sing the powerful fast rock songs, but he sure as hell can sing the slow ballads, reckon thats why the slowed down the beat.

@robertosexar

16y

I think PR is not a way to solve anything. There is nothing to solve. But he is a supporter to go on with music. They needed 3 or 4 voices and a showman and music is being made. The name is right also. It is not Queen but Queen+Paul Rodgers: stating Brian and Roger are Queen and they join Paul in order to accomplish the project.

@Ptrrrrrrrr

It IS not the same, because there's no Freddie and he made Queen. But that's no reason to whine about their current state of business... I think they all realise very well that this is more like a memoriam to Freddie than it is the actual Queen, which imo makes this a brave thing to do, and they're doing an awesome job.
