ulti … What a stupendous day of Adam Lambert!!!
I love Dr. Bri.
There are so many good things happening for Adam.
I’m going to bed with a smile and a happy heart.
As krads would say …
Happy Adam Dreams!!!
Night! Night!
How did I miss this tweet?
LMD lyrics
Listening to #TRUE all the way through, and have to say I like it. It’s like Adam’s albums, very eclectic, different texture voices and varied enough melodies to keep from getting bored. I love dance/trance music anyway, that’s what I’ve always worked out or walked to. I can see how Avicii and Adam would become friends as well as with Nile – I think they all share a similar musical aesthetic and like organic sounds (even with Avicii’s EDM production). He loves Adam’s voice and is proclaiming it to all who interview him, and for that I adore him. Audra Mae’s voice is WOW! She could sing circles around Adele, and there’s a touch of Allison Iraheta’s tone in there too.
We know that Avicii has 3 more songs with Adam/Nile – bet they’ll show up on album #2!!!!
Ulti, I wouldn’t give too much credence to that Glee article. It has been said by Chris Colfer himself that Adam will be his nemesis, and Adam has said he will be on Glee “this fall.” He knows what his contract says, at least. Murphy said “joining the cast.” You can’t be a nemesis with 2 songs and one episode. Maybe he will sing with the New Directions, but that’s not exclusive – there seems to be a LOT of singing on Glee.
Brian May has got to be one of the sweetest geniuses on the planet!!!! A monumental tower of goodness and brilliance.
Agree about Audra Mae and Adele, riskylady – not a fan – downloaded her album and then unchecked it.
And that’s true – keep forgetting that “nemesis” role. I looked up New Directions – know what it is now. He’ll sing with a high school glee club for some reason.
You’re right, too – so many thanks due to Brian – and Nile, as well – for recognizing Adam’s brilliance. Warms my heart – so grateful to them both.
Doing some catching up… Love all the attention LMD is getting
Review of True
http://whiteraverrafting.com/avicii-true-album-review/2013/09/13/
Eta: Avicii/LMD seems to be very popular in Finland… LMD is #5 overal on itunes.

As someone who has studied art history I often think of Adam and his career in terms of popular, contemporary art as opposed to great art that lasts through the decades, or centuries. In every era the market is flooded with contemporary art that is widely accepted and praised, that everybody buys and loves, but it is interchangeable and forgettable and doesn’t last the test of time. And then there are the real artists, the trailblazers, who are usually shunned by the masses, but recognized by the knowing few for the geniuses that they are. The mediocre popular artists are threatened by them and they try to keep them down (while their teachers often take credit for their work), but if they can find away to get the support of significant and influential “patrons” they can break through. In the end, the ones who are remembered are the real artists, not the popular ones.
As nice as it would be for Adam to get lots of radio play and to become popular with the “masses”, the support and praise by people such as Brian May, Roger Taylor, Nile Rogers, and the other “people in the know” is just so much more meaningful , to me anyway.
Sorry for the long post, just more of my morning musings.
Hi rs!
I agree with your morning musings. I also appreciate high those people you mentioned, because they have been “there” for a long time, also during times when real music and singing mattered. I am old fashioned in that sense, I love real music over the show entertainment, which doesn’t mean it couldn’t be very good musically too. But many people appreciate the beat and dance show and that stuff more than singing and instruments. I think that’s why it’s good that Adam does many kinds of collabs and styles, something for everyone. I love Adam’s vocals in LMD but as a song it doesn’t touch me like some other music he has done.
Morning LadyNorth ,
I have never liked, or rather listened to dance music before. I couldn’t connect to it, but the funny thing is that the past few days the song that is going through my head (including waking up to it in the morning) is LMD, replacing Adam’s other songs. Could be because I have heard it so much lately. When I listened to the BBC1 dance radio show that Avicii hosted, I wasn’t crazy about the music that he played (except for the stuff from True), but I have to say that I really enjoyed watching his ITunes concert from that night…
Thanks rs
Yep me too, for me good dance music is old or with rocky beat Queen makes me dance, but also Adam’s Trespassing upbeat songs especially Shady. Love wake me up, so maybe I am changing too Or expanding I would say Avicii’s songs are very good to be EDM. No wonder why he is so popular!
I missed that itunes concert, please anyone is it available in youtube? Thank you
The current Avicii album # (overal) in itunes – so many people are buying the album that probably single songs are not that high yet…

Here is the YouTube of the concert LadyNorth. Have to run now and take my father to the dentist. Enjoy

Woke up to the wonderful news that someone had gifted me LMD on iTunes. LOL, she could have saved herself the money. I am going to go out a look for a hard copy of the full cd this weekend. The snippets are amazing. Such an eclectic collection. Adam was before his time with FYE cd.
I love that Avicii and Nile have worked on 9 songs altogether and hope to goodness that Adam is performing on ALL of them.
I would rather see Adam follow his heart musically than see him get a #1 singing something he wasn’t really into. But #1 or even Top 10 would be nice.
LMD is showing as the second most popular track off TRUE on iTunes Canada this morning. Hey Brother is #1. Apparently, the singer of HB sang the theme song in George Clooney’s film “Oh Brother Where Art Thou” and this new song is a development of that. The score to that film was a big seller – very beautiful – so HB has a built-in following. It is also in the same vein as Wake You Up.
Lovely pictures of Sauli. I hope his success continues.
It’s interesting to see how well Adam’s two “big loves” are doing. Brad’s Husbands is getting more and more mainstream attention. It was written up in the biggest Toronto daily newspaper about a month ago as part of the online phenomenon. It’s doing very well and he is adorable.
Now Sauli is jumping into TV with both feet and doing pretty well with it.
Adam may be as much of a sucker for beauty as the rest of us but he seems to be very good at sussing out bright, funny, energetic, industrious and motivated men.
#NoFliesOnHisGuys
Ulti: my worry wart hat on after the Queenbert rehearsal info, too, but the leaker said they are rehearsing for 4 days so maybe 3 songs for Day One.
Off to work. Have a great day ALL!
I’ve only listened to one other track on True so far, I think it was track 9, and I wasn’t very keen.

Got tickets for NYE. Tried to see if I could get better ones and the VIP’s were sold out within 6 minutes. I never know if it is better to wait for the public sale and try for first row and risk the scalper pricing or is it better to pay face value and be 15 rows back. Anyway, decent tickets, cheap NYE, fantastic concert!! YAY!
“For “Lay Me Down,” Avicii assembles a formidable crew to combine funk with EDM, using an impressive Nile Rodgers guitar groove and Adam Lambert’s potent vocals to build a crazy, cross-generational dance jam that’s somehow both current and timeless.”
This validates your thoughts at 3:58, rs – yes, current and timeless.
More info re new tattoo…
Woohoo for aely. How I wish I could be there with you.
rs: Great post. I very much agree. Adam will stand the test of time no matter if the masses embrace him or not. Those in the know have already recognized his talent.

Liner notes for LMD
http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1rn723t
It’s great seeing LMD on the list of Hot Fall songs, and I listened to all 5 of them.
I really have nothing to say about the Katy or Britney songs. They will and are selling tons but
VIP pre-sale sold out in 6 minutes!!!
Wowz.
Keeping all my whatsis crossed for more one-off shows.
((( Chicago. Minneapolis. Milwaukee. )))
I re-joined the fansite just to be able to buy tix. Now we just need more shows.
Wondering if they will sell M&G’s anymore over there.
If you haven’t watched the EMA Q+A performance in a while, It’s still awesome!
http://adamperformances.blogspot.com/2011/11/european-music-awards-queen-medley.html
Just think, we’re going to get a professional recording of the iHeart show!
This performance still thrills me. Shivers!
So funny nkd, I just watched that over the weekend!!
…doing my homework and preparing for the awesomeness of this weekend.
Shall the speculation begin yet?
Hair? Clothes? Songs? Shoes? Boots? Jewelry? Hair? Duets?
(( Did ya’all notice how songs is just samdwiched in there? LULZ)))
New studded vest! It was made for a Queen + Adam performance.
Flat boots or Louboutins?
Please no droopy drawers.
#teamnotucking
That’s all.
I don’t ask for much.
I want it all.
If there’s a vest, there better not be a shirt under it.
I loved his AFTEE outfit. Just loved it.
Anybody else?
Those sparkly boots are Queen worthy. IMHO
nkd – Happy belated birthday! Hope it was a great one! If no droopy drawers is your only birthday wish, I’m sure that Adam will grant it.
Just got back from the dentist. Just before he started, I heard Faith by George Michael. As he started to drill, I hear WWFM. I instantly relaxed, knowing that Adam was with me (I know, corny but true). Next, the radio station played Stay and I thought of Adam’s version. What were the chances that those three songs were played in a row?
BTW, talked with my sister. She doesn’t have tickets to either of the concerts, just the Festival shows. Her hubby likes AWOLNation which I don’t think I know. Said if the prices drop, she’ll get tix. Down to $379 when I looked this afternoon, which is a lot better than $500 but still ridiculously overpriced IMO!
mils – totally agree about the sparkly boots (and I of course am the ultimate authority on all things sparkly – LOL), as long as they are relatively comfy and make him want to dance!
So…while I was at the hair salon this morning, guess what the Duke did? Got on ALF with a seatmap of WinStar event center and got VIP tickets! He has much better luck than I do. We are 8 rows back CENTER VIP!. Oklahoma ‘s not exactly where I thought I’d be on NYE but what the heck. Another chance to see Adam; who knows when there’ll be more? Looking forward to seeing nkd and aely and hoping more from ALL might join us!
That Duke is such a sweetie! Tell him I said hello! I was thinking about you two the other day – hope you both are well!

Just had a great lunch with my boo @adamlambert now I have the pleasure to be in rehearsal with #queenbert and @fun #rockandroll! #queen!
Congrats to all those going on NYE….looking forward to all the recaps.
