I just went back and watched the video again…purely for research into teeth of course! they look the same to me, especially in dark Adam, maybe it is just the different lighting? I know on 24/7 there is a dental nurse, maybe we should ask her, and there has definitely been lots of talk over the last year that in several photos you can still see he wears his retainer or something sometimes.
Anyways still loving the video. Seems pretty much very positive comments and press so far. Cant wait to see it on my big screen. also love the freckled lips on the last shot…
re Queen, blimey that rumour is everywhere this morning…but no denial yet from either side? looking at that Sonisphere site there seemed to be maybe 4 dates, so maybe that would work. But for the UK Knebworth house one, you can only get 3 or 4 day tickets and they were over 400GBP’s. (sorry don’t think I have a pound sign on my computer).
Is there any chance we will ever get to see the London showcase?
This is Knebworth where the Sonisphere will be, however Adam just tweeted that he had not confirmed any such thing.
http://www.knebworthhouse.com/rock/rockconcerts.htm
turquoisewaters, probably not.
turquoisewaters…nkd posted earlier that phones & cameras were taken at the door. But who knows? We got one video from Shanghai where we thought we wouldn’t get any!
My brother brought up one thing from the video. That when light Adam was writing he switched back & forth from right hand to left. I don’t think it has any significance.
Thank you, Adam for that tweet!
luval, I think the left-hand writing is an image in the mirror. If you look at the placememt of the plant at the edge of the mirror you can see it’s different than the straight on shot.
thanks, nkd. I mentioned something like that to him (the mirror image) but he refused to believe me. LOL. And he didn’t want to watch the video again…although he thought it was great.
One thing the Queen rumor has done is increase visibility of the new video! Yay for that! I mean every media outlet has picked up this story today. Wow.
I see a tidal wave approaching and I’m in a leaky boat.
I guess I’m not “all that deep” because, if I didn’t understand the concept of the video beforehand, I wouldn’t know what to make of it. It’s all so “busy”.
I like that he appears comfortable in front of the camera and that he emotes well and he looks great. Without compromising the theme, I would have preferred a simpler, less quickly edited version though. I barely noticed the song because I was overly focused on all the “stuff” happening in the video and trying to figure out what it all meant.
Maybe that’s a plus though as it makes you want to play it over several times to catch the details until the song does get stuck in your head.
I’m at a disadvantage viewing videos though because, as I’ve mentioned recently, I have an old PC and details are lost to me. The different color eyes at the end of the video look exactly the same color on this monitor. It all looks quite muddy to me and that, of course, greatly diminishes the enjoyment and full impact of being able to see it properly.
I love and appreciate everyone else’s enthusiasm and I hope it wins best video of the year too, luval! I like it … a lot! … I just don’t love it … a lot.
In this particular case, I think less would be more.
I’d prefer to see Adam in a spotlight sitting on a stool singing “Summertime” so you really can’t go by what I think. Especially when it comes to music videos
Obviously!
Adam: A
Video: B-
Ray Kay had to have been in absolute heaven working with Adam on this video. Adam is soooo expressive, he knows how to portray the emotion and feeling of the moment and he just let’s it rip..no fear! The end result is pure joy for a director and total perfection on screen. Adam is pretty much the most gorgeous, hot, sexy, adorable, smart piece of male humanity I have seen in the entertainment industry in like forever. Okay, here we go, since Ricky Nelson. I love Elvis, but Ricky was beautiful and Adam is the two of them rolled together with a voice that exceeds either of them. Thank God for the age we live in that we get all this access to him constantly. Talk about the best guilty pleasure on the planet!!!
This brief video goes along with Adam’s tweet…

356 on iTunes!
It’s moving up steadily.
I still think the video and song are in a bubble of sorts. Most people…kids don’t read all the pop & music articles or are on an Adam Lambert chat site. I think the big push will be when it appears on VH1 on their countdown. I’m assuming this will happen, soon I hope. Then I think the song will jump way up on itunes, although 356 isn’t bad!
Hi Ron!
I don’t know luval, it was in the 800’s this morning and in the 340’s now. I am not an expert on iTunes numbers, but it goes up continuously so that can’t be bad. And yes, hoping for the countdown. It’s very addicting, and definitely not good for (my) business!
Oh, and WWFM is climbing again as well, now on 1019.
Adam on Access Hollywood with Laura Saltman…..

When is Adam supposed to be back from Europe? Anyone know?
Nice block quote, Ron
To me it means GREAT!!! Maybe I should have said GREAT!!!
Yes it’s just a block, isn’t it, luval?
Thank you for explaining it. It’s always so difficult to understand what you mean. I wish you weren’t so shy about expressing yourself!
OT I was just reading another blog and a girl on there is on the stage crew for the Super Bowl on Sunday. She is talking about how excited she is and that she saw Madonna today. People were asking her questions and one was “Will she be lip syncing?” Answer, Yes she will.
HAHA Ron, I put a smiley face after “nice block quote, Ron” in case you can’t see it in your computer.
I saw Access Hollywood earlier. ugh. Finland. They are so behind. But at least they talk about Trespassing!

Maybe mid February???
BTIKM is at 102 on itunes Pop singles chart. I’m not sure where it was before the video release, but I know it has moved up a lot. Let’s hope it can continue to grow as it the video gets added to VH1 and MTV, and then hopefully more radio play.
The complexity of the video makes it more interesting, where you have to watch it many times to get it all, thus listening to the song many times. This song is one that grows on you and may take several listenings.
How do you see the itunes listings beyond the 200?
Thanks, dcglam. Seems like he’s been gone for a long time.
Ron
All that ‘stuff’ happening, all the jump cuts – I think today’s youth – as opposed to us 29-year-olds – really dig that kind of stuff
nkd, I use this one http://ax.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wpa/MRSS/topsongs/sf=9173491/limit=0000/rss.xml.
It doesn’t look neat, but if you search for Adam Lambert it’ll get you to where you want to be.
That’s how I found WWFM earlier, which now has disappeared again
Great review and explanation of the vid:
The more I watch the video it becomes clearer that BTIKM being released as the first single to Trespassing is a brilliant move.
It sets up the “mission statement” for the album.
Ok Adam I get it now
I can’t stay away from the video, I just keep going back again and again.
Sorry, didn’t know how to post the link. here’s the address:

That rumor sure has gotten around. I talked to my daughter tonight (on speakerphone with non-fans listening). She’s a big Adam fan, and was born 4 days after him back in 1982. So she says “Mom, did you hear the news about Adam Lambert?” I said “Yeah, his video came out today.” Nope, that wasn’t it. She had no idea there was a new video. She was talking about him touring with Queen. I told her it wasn’t happening and she wanted to know how I knew. I told her that Adam emails me personally. LOL. Then I told her he would probably do a couple of concerts with them this year, but he had his own album to promote. She’s not convinced. A lot of people would sure like to see it happen. I told her to go watch the video!
cgesq lol you posted the link just fine. Great article.
Finally got home.
Finally watched the video.
No time to post anything because I have to watch it another couple
of thousandtimes.BBL.
Maybe.
Just in case, I’ll wish everyone a very good night and sweet Adam dreams.
Swooning off now…
Thank you mieps for that link, I’ll check it out!
Thank you cgesq for the popmessiah review! Such a new fan!
Cosmo UK review of Trespassing.
http://www.cosmopolitan.co.uk/lifestyle/entertainment/cosmo-album-reviews-adam-lambert-trespassing?src=soc_twtr
It’s another great day to be a fan of the man.
That shot of his face at the end is beyond words. I don’t think he has ever looked better. So thin. So cute. Skin smooth as silk.
That’s it. I’m buying a juicer.
99 on POP itunes now.I agree with mils: great day to be a fan. If there was Adam stock, I’d be buying right now. (Although it probably would have been better to buy after the AMAs when the prices reached rock-bottom.)
Loving these tweets……

It was pretty damn special. Adam’s is seriously incredible. I honestly believe he’s probably one of the best current male solo singers

He sung five tracks – Fever, Better Than I Know Myself, Outlaws Of Love, What Do You Want From Me and Trespassing. SO good!

Re: the teeth – you can see Dark Adam’s teeth pretty clearly in this gif, and they look the same to me.

Still love love loving the video. Wow, what a day to be an Adam fan.
This is a very fun read from a fun fan, dissecting the BTIKM video:

And a THR article about Adam’s cool-it-on-the-Queen-rumors tweet:

I didn’t see this posted here yet. Another beautiful photo from the BTIKM cover photo shoot:

Adam’s being used in a Japanese promo piece for American Idol, with a clip of his AI Aftermath performance, and he gets to promote Trespassing:
cwm, these “teeth” in question can’t be seen on Dark Adam. They were only noticed on Light Adam. Check out the attached photos. Look on Page 4, Row 9, last pic on right. Also look on Page 5, Row 8, first pic on left. Those are the only two places that I particularly noticed the “teeth” during the video, and now in the pics–not all of them, though. Since they appear as usual in many of the pics, it could possibly be just a lighting thing as someone mentioned earlier. At the time it was originally mentioned, I don’t think we had the photos.

Good morning cwm!
One (maybe) more thing about the teeth…I think it’s his bottom teeth/lip that look slightly different. It’s either tons of lip gloss or he’s had collagen (doubt it LOL). Definitely whitening on the bottom. If you look at the FYE video his bottom teeth are more yellow. Very common that people whiten the top and not the bottom. A magazine did an article about this and showed many pics of entertainers with different colored top and bottom teeth. Maybe I can find a FYE mouth photo. Can’t believe I’m typing all this!!!!!

Good morning, am traveling/visiting friends this weekend and just now got to see BTIKM video for the first time. Wow, I LOVE it! I think Lyndsey Parker is right – this is Adam’s most compelling video so far. It should really help sell the song.
Added an embed of the video to the post above.
THANK YOU EYWFLYER FOR THE VIDEO ABOVE!!!!!!!!
Am watching the end of VH1 countdown. Will see if they mention BTIKM as upcoming for next week.
I didn’t know how to loop but I saw this on AQD

Thank you for including the video at the top of the thread, eywflyer. Enjoy the weekend away with your friends!
