That's cloning, not reincarnation. Reincarnation would have brought him back as a different person.

This guy is trying to win a spot as a front man for a Queen tribute band? **** that! Get this guy touring with the actual members of Queen ASAP!

Although it's a little sad that he'll likely be known for sounding like another famous singer and not his own unique sound. But of all the famous singers out there, being compared to Freddie Mercury is not a bad thing and few can claim it.

The thing is...it would be one thing if he sounded 93% like him...but the fella looks like he could be his younger brother or kid even.

If reincarnation is real, where's John Lennon? Or Buddy Holly? Or Jim, or Jimi, or Janis, or Keith, or...

Once again, that would be CLONING.

Obviously we need to clone them.

Finally, we have proof of the Resurrection. I am willing to accept Freddy Mercury as my personal Lord and Savior.

No it wouldn't. The Dalai Lama reincarnates. He is still the Dalai Lama. If you cloned the Dalai Lama, the result would not be the Dalai Lama, because it is the spirit, not the simulacrum, with which we are concerned.

I disagree. Tenzin Gyatso doesn't look anything like Thubten Gyatso. I also doubt they had similar singing voices.

Marc Martel appears to be a clone of Freddie. I'm not suggesting they are spiritually the same person.

Saw him on TV last night. I had to do a double take. He is 40 pounds and a porn stash away from being perfect.

Queen hits an 11 on my awesome scale. Mind blown.

Singing isn't the purpose of the bodhisattva of compassion. Nor is physically resembling the previous incarnation.

In essence, I am agreeing with you about Marc Martel. He is an imitation. A very good one, to be sure, but not the real thing. However, you are incorrect in your interpretation of my question regarding Lennon and Holly and the others. I'm not asking where are their sound-alikes.
