Acccording to Noise11 May is set to appear on the track 'Lucy' on Lambert's hugely anticipated new LP. Lambert was recruited by the remaining Queen members to embark on a worldwide tour in 2012 to perform the classics. Upon landing the 'dream job' Lambert was adament he wasn't there to 'replace' iconic frontman Freddie Mercury. "There's never going to be another. I'm trying to keep the memory alive, and remind people how amazing he was, without imitating him."

The pair are clearly fond of each other and are continuing to work together after a string of live arena dates around the UK in January 2015. Guitartist Brian May praised Lambert as "a gift from God." Going on to explain "Adam is the first person we've encountered who can do all the Queen catalogue without blinking."

Adam Lambert's third LP The Original High is due out 12 June on Warner Music. Speaking to Digital Spy, he hinted that his new LP is  "definitely pop" and also mentioned that "there's some house on there" as well as "some R&B flavours".
