They should be ready to really ride this wave of excitement. If they were smart they would be making announcements this week - either when the single will be released or actually releasing it this week.
Nina Garcia has seen the video and pictures.....

.........Adam Lambert Rejoins Queen For Brilliant “Surprise” MTV EMAs Performancerding to
..By Lyndsey Parker

It is an indisputable fact that Adam Lambert's Season 8 finale collaboration with Queen stands as one of THE best "American Idol" moments ever. Even the members of Queen themselves were so impressed at the time by Adam's now-legendary performance, they reportedly invited him to join their band permanently. According to "Idol" lore, Adam politely declined their flattering offer--and it sure was a flattering one, considering that he was, for all intents and purposes, being asked to fill Freddie Mercury's mighty big platform boots--and he later said this was all a rumor. But it was easy to see how such a rumor had gotten started, since Queen and Adam seemed like a perfect fit. Anyway, Queen subsequently held an online talent search for a new singer, and Adam went on to become a solo superstar...but there was always the possibility that the two would someday join forces again. And this weekend, that possibility was thrillingly realized, as Adam stunningly sang with Queen's Brian May and Roger Taylor at the MTV Europe Music Awards.

This show-closing performance was supposed to be a surprise...but when Dan Kanter, guitarist for fellow EMAs performer Justin Bieber, tweeted Saturday from the EMAs rehearsals in Belfast, "Yo @adamlambert! Good to see you dude, can't wait to see you kill it w/ #Queen"...well, the combined mass Twitter population of Glamberts and Beliebers spread the word fast. (Dan later deleted his telltale tweet, but on the Interweb, nothing is ever really permanently deleted.) So, by the time the EMAs aired the following day, excitement among Adam fans--all waiting and yearning for another watershed moment as fabulous as Adam and Queen's 2009 "Idol" spectacle--was at a feverish high.

It was worth the wait. Ending the EMAs with a salute to Freddie Mercury, who was being posthumously and rightfully honored with the Global Icon Award, Adam and Queen blasted through a medley of "The Show Must Go On," "We Will Rock You," and "We Are The Champions"...and it was a performance of champions, indeed. My only MINOR complaints: There should have been maybe 17 more Queen songs, as this performance was way too brief; Adam was never announced by name (damn you, Selena Gomez!); and a video tribute to Freddie featuring speeches by fans and colleagues, like the one Amy Winehouse received, would have been a nice addition (hearing Adam TALK about Freddie would've been cool too).

But otherwise, this was just about perfect. THIS was an example of an awards show done right, people. The MTV VMAs may drum up headlines for Kanye West/Taylor Swift feuds and meatdresses, but this year, the VMAs' European equivalent just let real talent and great music leave the biggest impression and have the final word.

"What an enormous honor to sing w QUEEN! I could feel the spirit of Mercury alive on stage tonight! Thank u Brian and Roger and crew. LOVE," Adam tweeted after the show. It was fantastic and nostalgic to see Adam back with his old "Idol" finale partners, and while I am obviously glad he chose to forge his own musical path rather than join Queen on a permanent basis, I do hope this isn't the last time we'll see them share a stage. Considering how well they work together, I have a feeling that they will, they will rock us again, one day.

has this review been posted......great!

http://www.popstar.com/News/Music/Article/182
Adam Lambert Lends Voice to Queen for MTV Europe Music Awards Performance

Singer Adam Lambert lent his vocals to the rock group Queen Sunday night at the MTV Europe Music Awards in Belfast, Ireland. Queen was honored with the Global Icon Award for it's legendary musical contributions, and in the absence of their late/great front-man Freddie Mercury, The Band asked Lambert to perform a medley of hits starting with "The Show Must Go On," followed by "We Will Rock You" and "We Are The Champions." Such a task would No Doubt be daunting for many a singer, but not for Lambert.

At the end of the day, he delivered.

The most notable thing about his performance was that Lambert did not make the slightest attempt to diminish Mercury's genius by trying to duplicate him. Instead, he infused his own brand of genius into the arrangement. It was an homage to one of Lambert's admitted heroes and a golden moment for he and his fans - perhaps for some Queen fans as well.

But not all of them.

Just moments after the performance, some of Queen's most faithful fans began buzzing about Lambert's audacious belief that he could replace Freddie Mercury and that under no circumstances should anyone attempt to front the group except it's original singer. They are also not prepared to accept the argument that Lambert was not trying to fill Mercury's shoes, but instead was merely helping The Band pay homage to their own history as well as to Mercury's legacy.

Fair enough. Everyone has the right to pledge allegiance to their favorite icons, afterall. It should be noted, however, that Lambert's name was not once mentioned during the show, not even when Queen was introduced for the night's final performance. Lambert made no mention of it prior to the show either, even though his fans and the media were speculating about The Appearance for days. The fact that he was not named has raised questions as to whether this is more than a one-time appearance with Queen, or if he had his name kept silent intentionally in order to honor Mercury's memory.

We're going with the latter.

Though his epic vocal range and captivating theatrical presence has been compared to that of Freddie Mercury, Adam Lambert is far more interested in his own gig at the moment. The singer is now working on the follow up to his hugely successful debut album "For Your Entertainment" which is due out next Spring. His Glam Nation tour was a also world-wide success, solidifying him as one of the most charismatic live performers of 2010. After tonight's performance, Lambert's massive (and ever-growing) fan base ignited the Internet with praise and support for the singer, not once doubting his heart was in the right place.

"What an enormous honor to sing with QUEEN!" he Tweeted shortly after the show. "I could feel the spirit of Mercury alive on stage tonight. Thank u Brian and Roger and crew. LOVE."

Adam Lambert & Queen Give Best Performance At MTV Europe Music Awards (Video)

Getty Imagesmore »
Trying to fill in Freddie Mercury's shoes is no easy feat, but Adam Lambert did a fabulous job at honoring the late singer with this performance along legendary band Queen at the MTV Europe Music Awards. Watch it here.

Nobody can deny Adam Lambert has an incredible vocal ability and the pop singer left us truly impressed with his collaboration with Queen at the award show, where they basically stole the spotlight and honored being named the Global Icon.
The crowd loved the show as much as we did and was sent into a frenzy while Lambert and Queen tore through the classics "Show Must Go On," "We Will Rock You," and "We Are the Champions."

Watch it here and tell us what you think about the performance.....
