"Ghost Town" First Single

[Cait1602]

The song is...so many things at once. Its just wow, just IS.

For the most part of the day I was just listening, dancing, whistling, fangirling like mad. An hour ago I had the time to really listen to it. Not just with my ears, just clicking on repeat ( yeah still dont have the single so watching the lyric vid again and again ) and really sit back and listen to the lyrics.

Holy crap the thought and memories this song provoked. Tough, really tough and dark things...at least for me. Now I know what he meant when he said "dark" lyrics. Havent heard lyrics like that from Adam all so often before "GhostTown". It touches me deep in my soul.

Maybe thats another thing besides the catching sound what really captivates me

This song is everything to me and even more. I cried when I heard it the first time this morning at 5.45AM  :laugh: and was dancing in my bed  :stir:   :stir:   :stir: !!! I don't know, I can't describe what I like the most - the whistle, the raw and tender vocals at the beginning, the song as a full or... everything? Was listening to it the whole day and cannot get enough.  :celebrate:  :celebrate:  :celebrate:

It's simply brilliant. Have been replaying it on Spotify since I came on, and on YT before that.  :Smile: Can't get enough of it. Can't wait for the whole album.

A couple reviews --  I pulled out a few lines from each.

The Singles Bar—Adam Lambert Haunts With Moody ‘Ghost Town’

Lambert is in a masterclass all his own. He’s a pop vocal gunslinger here, especially as the song swells and releases on the blistering bridge.

it’s Lambert’s nuanced vocal take that launches the song into the stratosphere. It’s not the first or even second listen that ropes you in: there’s something otherworldly about that third listen that envelopes you like a million steel chains, eerily wrapping around your body.

what will surely be Lambert’s massive breakout era.

Adam Lambert's "Ghost Town" Lyrics Show A Different Side Of The Singer & It Really Suits Him — VIDEO

Over and over Lambert tells you, “My heart is a ghost town,” and I’ll be the first to warn you, for better or worse, it’ll get stuck in your head.

When he sings, “Saw all of the saints/ Lock up the gates/ I could not enter/ Walked into the flames/ Called out your name/ But there was no answer,” I thought to myself, “Oh, Ive been in that relationship before.”

Take a close listen to the lyrics of “Ghost Town” and if you’re not already a Lambert fan, you just might soon become one.

This is the most fun interview of the morning.  Worth listening to it all the way to the end for the dog story.  :laugh:

I listened and I loved it! HAHA! He confused me, though. He said the album will be out on June 21, but that's a Sunday. Plus, iTunes says it'll be out on June 16.

Very very catchy, hopefully it will attract new fans!

It sounds really good and it sounds strategic.

He said it in two different interviews.  Me thinks he's confusing today's date with the June date.  :laugh:

He's done so many interviews and they are playing all over the country; and there are so many stations giving the song a play today that it is pointless and impossible to try to keep track of them all...which is the way it should be...his team definitely seems to be covering as many of the radio bases as possible, individual station phoners, syndicated shows etc.  This ain't like last era when there was just a handful of stations playing it a handful of times at 3 am....this is good

[madamimadam]

New interview added to the OP... Cute! He talks about Madonna having a GT too!  :lmfao:

[bebeg]

IDGI...from what we've been told, it's do NOT pr-order the album from ITunes because it won't count for charting.

So why is Adam  telling us to pre-order and giving the ITunes link?

ADAM LAMBERT @adamlambert
#TheOriginalHigh is now available for pre-order. Order now to get #GhostTown instantly! –  http://t.co/9p25aqu17u

Does anyone know what CD is included in the bundles on Adam Official?  It is the standard or deluxe version with the bonus tracks?

I emailed adamofficial store (MyPlay Direct) about the cd's.  This is the response....

The Original High (CD) that we have available on our store for $14.99 is the standard CD. There is no deluxe version for the CD, only a Fan Edition CD that is included with the bundles that we have available on our store; It has the same track listing but a different album cover.

Thank you for your inquiry.
Sincerely,
Gabriel
