Queen will lose their temporary frontman Paul Rodgers.
Paul Rodgers has revealed that he will part company with iconic rock band Queen.
The singer has collaborated with the group since 2004 on several live recordings, a studio album and two world tours, but told Billboard.com in a recent interview that this was not intended to be a permanent.
He commented: "At this point we're gonna sit back from this. My arrangement with [Brian May and Roger Taylor of Queen] was similar to my arrangement with Jimmy [Page] in The Firm in that it was never meant to be a permanent arrangement."
Rodgers also told the news provider that he is open to working with the band in the future, saying he would consider playing charity events and the like with Queen.
In addition, the singer said that he is leaving his time with the band with good memories and thinks the collaboration's efforts have been a success.
Queen Online recently revealed that a box set - Queen + Paul Rodgers Live In Ukraine - will be made available, showing live footage.
