"Welcome to the Show" New Single

I've been lukewarm on this song---purely as a song ; after all, Adam's vocals are flawless, and you couldn't ask for more nuanced, sensitive singing---but in spite of myself, I can't get certain phrases out of my head ::smile:: ("They feel like me out there," "My li-i-i-fe," etc....

"Can't Go Home Like This" - Steve Aoki & Felix Jaehn ft. Adam Lambert

So good to see you, Derek! It's been a minute! ::hugkissblush:: Thanks, svca and Marie ! (Sadly, Real Life had nabbed me.) svca : You should be able to find Can't Go Home on iTunes listed under Adam Lambert. That's where I found it on NZiTunes, anyway---though I did have to scroll down quite a bit....

"Can't Go Home Like This" - Steve Aoki & Felix Jaehn ft. Adam Lambert

I'm really excited about "Can't Go Home." The lyrics are gorgeous (favourite lines: "When the bed's half-made and the light's blown out/We can build our fate over hollow ground"), the melody is irresistible, and the production is perfect! It's also one of those seamless gems that...

2016 TOH Tour

I'm very excited about the Seoul concert! My only frustration is that I live at the other end of the country (Busan), and the concert's at 8pm on a Tuesday night. And I finish teaching at 5pm!!! Not even the bullet train is that fast ::thinking::

Will see what I can do! ::smile::

Poll: What's Your Choice for the Second Single?

I hadn't played (the song) TOH in quite a while, so I went back to it this evening to find out whether I still felt as passionately about it as I did back in July. Yup!!!! I still love it as much as ever, and I think Warners would be insane not to make it Adam's third single. As I've said before, it...

2015-11-13 Swedish Idol

I love this Swedish Idol performance of ALN! While I wasn't crazy initially about the shortening of the song---which I think started with the Aussie X-Factor performance---I can understand why Adam's done it. That "tightening" does make it zip along for TV audiences, and it's probably more...

I am just so, so, so happy with THE LIGHT! ::yessss:: I don't think it is all that complicated a song, and it isn't the best for showcasing his voice IMHO, but there is something so compelling about the lyrics. I find them as revelatory for him, actually. And I agree Derek, that it is a wonderful a...

Lucy and The Light are amazing live! In fact, Lucy was born for live performance, and stadiums, in particular! And to think it was my actually my least favourite track on TOH. ::wub:: With Adam in spectacular vocal form, Lucy gives such an adrenaline rush that it left me panting ::grin:: What an ene...

Poll: What's Your Choice for the Second Single?

It's probably time to think about the 3rd single. I guess Madam will start a separate thread on this. While I see thematically, that it is bound to be ALN , personally, I'd like him to switch it up to TOH. But that will probably be a summer song. My personal current favor is The Light, but it may n...

***Have-At-It Never-Ending Gabfest***

I get that it's a business decision and sometimes good business has to trump friendship. What irks me and what I think is wrong is that it seems like the change was made far into negotiations and that to justify it, DL's team seems to be trashing Adam. If by trashing you mean the report that Adam i...

They just played a large chunk of Outlaws of Love on Korean mainstream TV ::smile:: It was on MBC---one of the main TV channels here---and accompanied a touching reenactment of a real-life love story. We got the whole first half of the song, and then the climax through to the end. It was spine-tingl...

"Another Lonely Night" Second single

I see that YouTube views are now at 236,276! That's impressive, considering that iHeart had exclusive use of the video for the first 24 hours, and the general public wouldn't have been able to find it on YouTube (since it was private). I'm absolutely convinced that this video will prove more popular...

Yup. I can honestly say that this is my favorite MV that he's ever done! BTIKM used to hold that honor, but now, ALN has taken it! I think it really enhances the song. Some mvs do that and some not so much. Even though I played the GT mv hundreds of times to help with the numbers, I don't think it ...

Speaking of hearing Adam on commercials, South Korean mainstream TV's love affair with If I Had You seems neverending!

I honestly couldn't give a toss whom Adam is dating/not dating, as I don't feel it's any of my business. His music is why I'm here. But if others want to discuss/speculate about his love life, that's fine by me too---and this thread seems like the appropriate place to do that. On the other issue--- ...

Which Bonus Song?

In comparison with Queen songs, Adam's current album is missing some of the euphoric, lightheartedness that motivates a crowd to experience a certain amount of ecstasy and wild abandon that gets people to their feet! I think that a big part of that euphoria---at least, on the audience's part (and w...
