The first month of 2012 finds Adam’s new single “Better Than I Know Myself” already making its appearance on the Billboard Hot 100, as we await the “official” radio add dates of January 23 (HAC) and January 30 (CHR). Hoping for much promo and excitement in the next few months as things build toward the release of Adam’s second album “Trespassing” on March 20. We should have a new tour to look forward to later this year as well! Enjoy the chat!

    I wish that Adam’s new necklace from Pennyroyal could be a drop of water. I would buy that in a heartbeat!

    I would love that and would buy that too!
    I think someone had a water droplet charity pendant at PR. Jewel, maybe?

    I am so on team Trespassing. That song has all the excitement and attitude and beat that I was missing from some FYE songs, and Adam is already doing a fab job singing it. I think this will go down as my favorite Adam song ever (so far Wink ). On the other hand I also love the opposite extreme, OOL. This album is going to be siiiiick!

  3. rainbowgal4 says:

    (pant pant pant)Whew!!! Just caught up on all the posts!
    I was able to listen to the videos. OOL had me in tears. Those words go right to my heart. Cannot wait to hear the album version of Trespassing. I think there’s going to be some serious dancing going on in my house to this song.
    Tomorrow is the funeral I traveled 900 miles for. Right after we will head to Minneapolis. Thank you all for your posts. I could feel the excitement while reading them. I will catch up with all of you late tomorrow nite. While listening to Adam sing I became aware of how much I missed his voice. I’m glad he’s back.

    I can’t believe y’all stans! NOT A WORD ABOUT the GB???????

    Here are trimmed and edited mp3 downloads of the snowcase songs.

    I can’t believe I still tear up every time I hear OOL, and this version was stunning. I love it!
    As Ron once told me it’s because it, or Adam’s voice, touches my soul.

    I also want to add how much I like the addition of Kevin to the band. I hope he stays.

  6. Miss Chaos says:

    I just love Trespassing, love it when he was first singing it thru the warble of the stream going off and on.
    I have a feeling since there are so many words in the song he will be forgetting the words a lot, but no worries, he forget the words at the end of WWFM that he has song a thousand or more stinkin times, lol.
    Trespassing is going to be a huge hit, I cant wait for the full live version with the band. Its just so different, and there is one part where he turns his head to a profile that he just looks out of this world, the Elvis profile, he is gonna be a superstar this year, wait and see. I am glad hes done with the glitter look, and down to earth with the leather and more rock look.
    Outlaws of Love is so beautiful. And I really liked Fever acoustic, I never liked it on tour, too campy, but this one was really good. BTIKM was so awsome, everytime he has done it has be different already, just think of the rest of the songs we need to hear. What an exciting year for Adam and us. Im so thrilled.

  7. ultimathule says:

    Thanks, nkd – I dl’d those three as well. To me, Fever and WWFM are last album. Besides that’s Gaga and Pink music – now I want to hear Adam’s music.

  8. cwm says:

    That was an awesome, amazing performance. I loved all of it. The arrangements were perfect, and Adam’s voice was sublime. He’s sounding better than ever. OOL and BTIKM were achingly gorgeous and beautiful, and Trespassing was surprising and wonderful. Wow, so many adjectives in so few sentences. Hah. What do you say when you run out of superlatives?

    Just *sigh* I guess. I’m such a happy fan. Adam spoils us so.

    And can I just say that I love Kevin? His keyboarding, back-up vocals, and musical direction have added so much already. And we know he’s/they’re feeling the love:

    Kevin Hastings @kevmokeys
    Wow thank you for all the amazing feedback from last night’s live stream! You guys are awesome!

    Whenever I hear that snippet of Trespassing I involuntarily start jumping around in my seat and laughing out loud. It is totally out of my control. What is going to happen to me when the album comes out? I’ll be a basket case

  14. adamized says:

    Yeah – longer snippet with clapping of Trespassing. LOVE IT! http://bit.ly/zis1ra

    Adam Lambert
    “I don’t need no sympathy. I won’t cry and whine. Life’s my light and liberty, and I’ll shine when I wanna shine” …..

    OK, Adam…I’mma let you finish, but it’s my life and I’m gonna whine if I want to.
    Why? Why? Why?
    Why do I have to sleep … go to work … cook and clean …?
    Why do I even have to breath?

    I don’t want to miss anything here. I want to stan you 24/7.

    So, if we have already seen the first part of Trespassing, and here is a fan video of the last part of the song,

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIjbx8VhOQE&feature=player_embedded

    wouldn’t it just be better for Adam to let them release the whole thing together? please? pretty please with butter and molasses on it? (have no idea where that came from. Must have been my childhood in Tennessee. lol)

  17. Teri63 says:

    “Trespassing” surprised me at first because it was so different from anything we’ve heard Adam do before, but now I am LOVING it! I can’t stop watching the snippets of it. The whole showcase was awesome. He seemed so relaxed and funky-fun, a lot like he was during his Upright performances, but with greater musical maturity. I thought I loved his music before, but 2012 Adam is mind-blowingly amazing. I’m glad the UK media is excited about him; I just hope he garners the respect he deserves in the US!

  18. luval says:

    haha Teri63…you came around pretty quickly! I was a little bit quicker! I really am loving this song.

    btw I can’t say enough about the new guy! Kevin is great.Fits in so fine. Tommy is just the cutest. I noticed him staring up at Adam a couple of times with those big guyliner-ed eyes.

  19. Calgary says:

    Adam’s schedule for the next week. Sorry if this has already been posted.

    Adam will be visiting radio stations in Germany from January 30 through February 2. However, at this point, no further details have been revealed as to which radio stations, and whether or not fans can attend the appearances in Germany. Apparently Adam will be traveling directly to the UK from Germany, based on a tweet from his publicist, stating that he will arrive in the UK on February 2. But it seems he will not be staying in there for long, because he is set to perform at the Mix Megapol “Mix Unplugged” event in Stockholm Sweden on February 5.

  20. Miss Chaos says:

    So the Sweden visit will be like the Snowcase, probably the same songs, maybe we will get a better Trespassing. Hey he sang OOL months ago, way before the album is even coming out. So there is no reason he cant sing Trespassing and let us hear the whole thing. Look how much better OOL sounded the second time we heard it. COME ON!~

  24. Kradamour says:

    Dunno about the pants, nekkid, but that vest is from Ste Agathe and I love it…and that is an amazingly detailed photo, cherie, we could do a lot of research on that pic. Def one to put into the research library. Smile

  25. asifclueless says:

    OMG … nkd… It’s enormous!!! In Love

    I mean .. the photo is huge.

    Alrighty … a button … then. Thanks.

    Hahaha…more stuff added to Sh*t Adam Stans Say…(but still no GB, Calgary!)

    Do ya think that is what they mean by MELVIN. I know it has a different urban dictionary meaning,, but it is close, kinda, sorta.

  27. Miss Chaos says:

    Well I keep thinking of things from last nite, and remember how nicely he spoke to the crew about the sound??? Please adjust the drums, ect?

    Not—TURN IT THE FUCK UP!!!!!! Wonder why?Hee

    Cm’on

  28. Calgary says:

    glambotgram You could be right but it must be a regional expression – most of the definitions relate to ‘a severely uncool person’ or ‘a frontal wedgie’!

  29. Kradamour says:

    Somebody needs to turn the Home Planet loose on that Adam stan quote page…OMG I cannot even begin to imagine the awesomeness that would result! Chic

  30. luval says:

    I just love his sunglasses. And can anyone tell what’s in his smoothie? The only thing I can read is celery.

  31. Kradamour says:

    Have we noticed that Adam’s nails are seldom chipped these days? Hoping that means that he is less nervous, when he picks at them.
    Okay, back to what passes for reality in my life… Smile

  32. luval says:

    Kradamour, I think he uses that new stuff that’s out there now. He calls it shellac, which may be the name. It’s really “hard core” that won’t chip. I think his nails look longer lately too. I think I like them shorter. Any of you “nail polish people”?

    That’s all I can make out too!

  35. riskylady says:

    I cannot wait to be in a concert audience, with the whole audience clapping, stomping, singing along to Trespassing! Holy Glamrampage!!!! Soooo muuch fun!!!
    I am amazed at the performance Adam put on in Austria. He was up at 4 am their time (7 pm California time for him, poor baby) tweeting Illuminati stuff, and fans were asking him why he was still awake. I don’t think he got any sleep that night, plus it was cold, and didn’t he say the venue was smoky?
    OOL – just gets more beautiful and heartbreaking. Getting a lot of love from the pre-listens in the UK. The album version must be amazing. Love the piano, and love Tommy’s softer guitar. That’s the proper way to accompany someone with a guitar. And I love the new band, and Kevin. Never liked the way Monte accompanied Adam, too strident and loud.
    I also liked the acoustic BTIKM. In fact, I like all of them so far. I even liked acoustic Fever, having seen the YouTube of Gaga’s acoustic Fever with piano – totally overwrought IMHO.
    Gaaahhhhh, Adam! Can you tone down the lovability already???

  36. eywflyer says:

    It’s Monday, so weekly add reports for BTIKM are coming in:

    Hot AC – 3 adds (38 of 92 stations reporting)
    Top 40 – no adds (19 of 156 stations reporting)

    Of course, at least according to some reports, the song just went for adds on Top 40 today. I do hope to see more Hot AC adds come in later on.

    Now #37 on the 7 day rolling Hot AC airplay chart:

    You have to wonder how Monte feels about not being missed AT ALL. What started as a poor personal decision might turn out to also be a very poor business decision. Unless of course Adam told Monte before the bastard album came out that he wanted to upgrade his guitar player, then that would be a whole different story, so what do I know?

    nkd – that tweet from ghosst – so funny and so true – lol

  45. ultimathule says:

    What I particularly love in BTIKM is at the end when he just hums a few notes and then segues into that deep, beautiful “yeeeaah.” Pure aural bliss.

  46. HK fan says:

    Loved BTIKM and OOL especially, love acoustic Adam…well love rocking Adam too…heck, who am I kidding, I love all Adam!!!

    I thought maybe Melvin was his bum, from when they all gave their backsides names on the tour? I know there was a big thing about Terrances at the time, can’t remember what he called his though.

    I’m right there with you, Teri63
    It looked as though Adam had a difficult time containing himself on that stool for this “acoustic” performance. He needed to be strutting around on that stage!
    I CAN. NOT. WAIT until we receive the studio version and his live concert performances of this song. They will kill!!!

  48. luval says:

    HK fan, I think Terrance’s name was Dante. During STrut Adam replaced the word darling with Dante.

    You have to wonder how Monte feels about not being missed AT ALL. What started as a poor personal decision might turn out to also be a very poor business decision.

    I’m hoping that Monte is now realizing what a short-sighted decision he had made. Yes, the guy earned a few quick extra bucks from BFM. However, this is relatively minor when compared to what he could have earned from staying with the band and traveling the world for perhaps years to come.
    Sorry Monte!

  50. HK fan says:

    add me to the list that doesn’t miss Monte, to be honest, visually I never thought he was a good fit. Musically I don’t know enough about it so won’t comment.

    thanks luval, yes, I remember now. He certainly knew how to shake it…
