After we were showered with Adam goodies in April, let’s see what flowers in May. With recent tweets about new music and GLAAD honoring Adam with the Davidson/Valentini Award, May seems as if it will be a very merry month indeed. And we can’t forget the Life Ball in Vienna later in the month! Let’s hope for more great pics like we had from the CMAs (China not country music), Live Proud PSA and Miami Beach Pride.

    mils Brian is in the States. Got here today. Who knows, he could be here for a week. I understand Adam doing his own music but would not think it would be a bad thing to do Queen, after all he was part of the band. (I just can’t get behind the name Queenbert, Queen snob I guess.)

    Does Jennifer Hudson have a well known song out? I don’t know anything about her music. They may do a cover as well.

    I think the most important part of this is that Adam is seen again on TV in front of millions and reminds people how damn talented he is and pick up some more fans and interest – it is a win win. I really cannot see any downside regardless of what he sings. It speaks volumes that he was asked back to the finale.

    Plus, it is fun to dream up ideas for duets!

    aely, nice post. Adam’s gonna sing what he’s gonna sing. He may have very little choice, and end up just being gorgeous and gracious. I hope they present him with some of his record awards and show a retrospective of “what he’s done since Idol.’

    That’ll show the haters.

    All in all, it’s fun to guess, what he’ll sing.

    As long as Johnny isn’t dancing, I’m fine.

    BTW. I looked really closely and could not spot him on Glee last week. Could any of you? He was there, he had pics of himself with Kate Hudson, but could not spot him on screen.

    Unbelievable. Of course Mariah would be on the finale, because JLo is (why, why, why????) Whatever. I’ll just fast forward, watch Adam, then delete.

    Mils…I saw a shadow of Johnny in the background (lol)on Glee. He was just standing there. It was a scene with Kate Hudson talking to Rachel with the dance group standing around. I deleted the show or I would tell you where to look.

  8. ultimathule says:

    ROCK for me, mils.

  9. mmm222 says:

    My first choice for the Adam & Angie duet would be a Queen song, especially if it were the full Queenbert experience. Come on Brian, LA is just a short jaunt from NYC. Seriously though, Adam sounds magnificent singing Queen, and it’s about time more of the American audience is reminded just how incredibly talented he is. I do love rock Adam!

  10. aely says:

    One more point about covers, don’t the “cool, hip, edgy” judges on the Voice do covers together most weeks? I think it is becoming more acceptable across the board. Lots of singers do them in concert. Also, anyone that says, see Adam isn’t relevant because he is singing a cover, is never going to be his fan anyway.

    All that said watch he will do WWFM. Grin

  11. Kradamour says:

    Sad to hear about MeatLoaf, mils. I wore out that album, too, and bought another, and now I have it on CD. He was amazing.
    Great voice, great lyrics.
    So many times when I look in the rear view mirror I think of him.

  12. loveroftalent says:

    @milwlovesadam I’m with you on ROck Adam…I love it when he rocks out…He has the voice to do it and I think that is what he should be doing..

    So sad about Meatloaf getting bad reviews…Loved all his music so much…

    @cwmThanks for posting about the lifeball…So proud of Adam..

  20. adamized says:

    cwm thank you for linking us to the blog. What a lovely writter! A new found trove of goodies to read on a long rainy day.

    Some folks are worried about the terminology of “presents”. Think it might mean he is introducing the song but not singing it. That would be CRAZY!!!

    All I can say is DITTO on all your recent posts. Saw the NPR show and agree and of course all your observations and pictures and comments are spot on.

  21. glambotgram says:

    I think if he was presenting a singer, it would give the name of the singer not the song.

  22. turquoisewaters says:

    I think if he was presenting a singer, it would give the name of the singer not the song.

    Excellent thinking. I also thought it was set that he was performing. This from the SFGN interview:

    I’m doing Life Ball in May in Vienna, which is an AIDS fundraiser. It’s huge. It’s the biggest one in Europe. I’ve been hearing about it for years. So I’m excited about performing in that.

  23. glambotgram says:

    One more point about covers, don’t the “cool, hip, edgy” judges on the Voice do covers together most weeks? I think it is becoming more acceptable across the board.

    I don’t have a problem with covers by Adam, except in this situation. When celebs come on Idol to do a song with a contestant it is always their song. I don’t remember a single time that they did a cover. It smacks of not having a song of his own. He has loads, even a not so familiar one is better than someone else’s. IMO.

    Life Ball Info from here http://www.lifeball.org/?p=5542&lang=en

    “Love Wins Over Glamour” – Life Ball Song 2013
    During the Life Ball song 2013, interpreter Adam Lambert as Ali Baba will come under the spell of the treasure of the 40 thieves, who will accompany his performance by their dancing. The US singer, whose career started off at “American Idol“, is famous for his extraordinary voice, with covers several octaves, as well as his flamboyant-theatrical performances. He was the first openly homosexual pop artist who signed a contract with a major music label in the US.

  26. rs says:

    I just watched this weeks The Voice episodes back to back. I want Adam to duet with Karina and Sasha more than anyone from Idol. They both have huge voices and together they would kill it! He and Sasha have a history so maybe she can put in a good word with the producers. If peeps here are sending up their dream duets on reality TV, those are mine Big Smile

  27. rs says:

    It specifically mentions Adam’s performance so I don’t think we have anything to worry about. I can’t think for a minute that they would invite him to appear and not take advantage of the opportunity to have him sing. That would just be ridiculous ROTFL

  28. glambotgram says:

    Can we get some floorbert on a magic carpet, please, pretty please.

    I’m really excited about this Life Ball thing. It is going to be a huge spectacle, and Adam is PERFECT for it! He’s going to revel in all of that spectacle and theatrics, and he’ll be totally in his element, and there will be no need for him to hold himself back. And we get a new song! Yay!

  34. asifclueless says:

    I’m very excited about Adam’s performance for Life Ball. He fits so well with this creative and spectacular event.

    ….. Letting go of the veil of the daily routine, dancing against exclusion and breaking conventions by being creative – this is how Life Ball 2013 will combine the fight against AIDS with its familiar joie de vivre. Its motto, 1001 Arabian Nights, not only makes you unleash your creativity, but it also makes you think: Because, like in all the tales, we face the fight between the eternal opposites: empathy and selfishness, tolerance and ignorance.

    The Style Bible has lavishly been created in order to translate the diversity of the oriental tales into Life Ball looks and to give an insight into a world where wisdom, sophistication and high moral standards smoothly melt together with mythical creatures, exoticism and spirituality.

    88 models have posed for four days and nights in front of photographer Markus Morianz’s camera, among them German top model Sara Nuru and Conchita Wurst. Wrapped into robes embroidered with jewels and oriental cloth, the sensuousness of the materials also spreads to their wearers in the pictures – and thus, in combination with elaborate henna paint, pieces of jewelry and accessories, a whole piece of art is created for every character, each uniquely shining and sending a message.
    …..

    Here is the gorgeous and spectacular of the Life Ball event last year.

    I can’t believe it! I’m actually going to be in Vienna May 25-26. What I would give for a chance to see that performance live….harem pants and all. They did mention a live broadcast on the Live Ball site, so maybe I can at least watch it as it’s televised. I’ll also be hyper alert for possible AFL sightings as I tour around Vienna. The smart thing to do would be to hang out around some high end, hip men’s clothing shops, although how do I explain that to my travel companions. I can just imagine the eye roll bonding my husband and mother will have if I do run into Adam and profess my “undying love” to him.

  36. aely says:

    The Vienna gig does seem to fit him perfectly! Very exciting. Love that he was part of writing the song he is singing. Ali Baba indeed. Smile

    “Love Wins Over Glamour” – Life Ball Song 2013

    During the Life Ball song 2013, interpreter Adam Lambert as Ali Baba will come under the spell of the treasure of the 40 thieves, who will accompany his performance by their dancing.
    The US singer, whose career started off at “American Idol“, is famous for his extraordinary voice, with covers several octaves, as well as his flamboyant-theatrical performances. He was the first openly homosexual pop artist who signed a contract with a major music label in the US.

    At the end of the song, the famous words “Open, sesame!” show their meaning at the Life Ball, as they fully open the stage for the first time. About 270 protagonists – harem girls, belly dancers, musicians of a Turkish orchestra as well as the debutants – begin to move together according to the motto “Alles Leben” (“All live”) and accompanied by the 1001 Nights Waltz by Johann Strauss Jun.

    It’s going to be magnificent and spectacular. Can’t wait.

    This month is a wonderful month for Adam.
    Today is the 5th Adam Lambert Day.
    Later he will be seen by millions of people in many continents …Chinese Idol, American Idol and Life Ball in Vienna.
    He is really a Super Global Star!!!
    I’m a proud fan of the man.

    In Love Heart
