If anything, it was a nice tribute to the band for being around 50 years from now, it's crazy. But Disney isn't the best choice for when it comes to a make a tribute for a band like queen. Like have you heard some of there music, some of it is a bit raunchy for Disney's taste. But I'll review how this special was and each singer and band who was involved in this special.
When I first saw it, I thought it was gonna be grand but it was a let down start at first, then in the second half it was great, but went down hill at the end, I gotta say, I wish they did a better job, this is my favorite band, and Ik Disney means well and gives respect to the band, they also wanna look out for the kids by taking out certain things in the songs. Also the transitions to the next performance was getting kinda boring after the second half. But this special should've been in the hands of like WB or universal, ya know make it for those whoever wants to rock out, the young generation and the old generation who grew up with this band.
Now the people involved singing the amazing songs for this band:
Jojo Siwa: should probably make the performance better or maybe make it so adults can enjoy the show. 3/10.
Jimmy Allen: pretty good, I like the different tone he used for the song, very soothing. 8/10
Miss Piggy: ... no.... Just no... I love the muppets, I even love there spoof on Bohemian Rhapsody. But I was cringing the entire thing with her and jimmy, I say she should just be around Kermit more(which by the way Disney, I would like Steve Whitmire back for Kermit plz). But overall I felt like they just put her in there not knowing how others would feel. 2/10
Pentatonix: it was fine, I wasn't too excited for it. I like they're work, ig it just doesn't work for me that much, but it was entertaining nonetheless, but I still love "Somebody to love". 6/10
Disney Broadway: loved the musicals, love the actors, love the song, but they should've picked something more appropriate considering what this song is about. But it was pretty good overall. 8/10
Fall out boy: not bad, I honestly liked this one, but it sounded like the guy singing was trying to be both Freddie and Bowie. You can be only one buddy, still I liked it. 9/10
Derek Hough & Alexander Jean: A little to Spicy and too much salsa for the song, then again this song was made for like bars or dance clubs and all that(if you know what I mean) but I liked the choreography in this performance, kinda gives off a "Grease" vibe. 7/10
Alessia Cara: kinda mixed feelings on this one, I think she did a good job, maybe it was a little too sultry for my taste, plus I didn't even she existed. 5/10
One republic: I loved this one. The swimmers dancing in the pool was very appropriate for this song and I liked the the singing, pretty amazing I must say. 10/10
Adam Lambert: I like Adam as a performer and he's doing well taking up the mantle for Freddie and being the new lead singer of Queen, but it might be my Biased brain but I liked Freddie as the lead singer in the band, but Adam was pretty good. 8/10
Darren Chris: what a squidward move this host did, he was pretty entertaining as the host for the most part, but being the last act is a very squidward move to do. I would've chosen panic! At the disco for that final preformance. He was alright ig, not that good but alright. 4/10
Disney, I love you guys, but you should know your audience better and not worry about child safety when it comes to these kinds of things with queen or turning R rated movies into pg-13 films like what you did with Deadpool 2. Bye.
