Former American Idol contestant Adam Lambert performed a three-song medley with Brian May and Roger Taylor of Queen at the weekend's MTV EMAs, proving himself easily the best replacement for Freddie Mercury since George Michael did the honours at the late singer's tribute concert almost 20 years ago. Brian May certainly thought so, saying, "Adam's voice reaches out with sensitivity, depth, maturity, and awesome range and power which will make jaws drop all around the world."

This got us thinking... which contemporary stars would make good lead singers for classic groups?
