What country and language is this? We all know that Adam is an international star, so it is not surprising that these two singers would have selected something from Adam's album to perform. Remember that Nakia sang WWFM on The Voice; that's the song that Adam Levine supposedly never heard. These two guys were all right; I think the first one did a better job and then I saw that he was selected. But no one can do justice to the song except Adam, of course. By the way, did you notice the eye makeup on the two men?

Yes, I noticed that both guys were rockin' the eyeliner - a la Adam. :-) I agreed that the first guy did a better job and thought the second guy's voice sounded a lot like Axl Rose. 'Course no one can sing it like our ADAM. Would also like to know which country this is. BG = Bulgaria?? LL

@LL, I also thought maybe Bulgaria due to the initials BG. That was fun to watch but I preferred the second guy. Does anyone know if the concept of The Voice started here in the US or another country? Cant tell you how thrilled I am every time I hear someone singing a song of Adams. "Sleepwalker" will always be a favorite of mine! ... Adamluv

On the actual you tube video,it gives the county & it's def.Bulgaria..I noticed the guyliner,too..these guys tried,but it's Adam's song,& too hard for them..On the other hand,they had to sing it in English,& I'm sure that made it much harder.

Oh so they've heard of 'Sleepwalker' in BULGARIA, but A. Levine hasn't heard WWFM. Oh, but he's outraged at what AI did to Adam.

Hard enough to sing Sleepwalker like Adam, let alone in English, when that's not your first language. They were both good. I think I like the voice of the first person better. It's so nice to see Adam's music being recognized internationally in this way! Way to go Bulgaria!

God, I love that song. Gives me chills (not these guys, although they were ok).

It was kind of awkward because of the thick accent. They likely sing a lot better in their own language.

Frankly speaking, I have never heard anyone yet sing Adam songs quite similar indeed. It's really hard because Adam sing from his soul.

I praised those contestants because they tried their very best indeed.... Bravo to all the fans around the world who loves our Adam.....

Magnificent this battle of voices, with the theme of sleepwalking, very favorable international recognition for our star, congratulations to the participants! But Adam is unbeatable when he sings his heart!

Good try, guys! They did their best, but there's no touching Adam when it comes to a rich, beautifully inflected and conrolled voice. He's just unbeatable.

I like to have Adam's songs out there, getting recognition and publicity, but it's really a mistake for anyone else to sing them. There's just no comparison to his voice.
LOL, loved the comment about Adam Levine not knowing WWFM. Now that was a fun night on twitter!

Yea, the second singer sounds like Axl. I don't mind if other singers perform Adams songs.

Congratulations to Adam and we musn't forget the guy who wrote it....Ryan Tedder of One Republic, they gave us...the world...a memorable song. I thought the guys did very good with all but the Adam notes!.......JAK

You guys tried very hard, but don't match up with our Adam.

Fellow who won, please don't sing it again...ever...with my eyes wide shoot...indeed!

It seems like some of you, ladies, have been brainwashed!
I am sure that Adam would be very happy and honored that "Sleepwaker" is becoming epic!
Boys tried to sing the song their own way and I respect them for it.
Did anybody say about accent? I think English people talk with accent also. Because they talk in ENGLISH! They don't talk in American:)
Like JAK said, congradultaions to Adam and don't forget the guy who wrote the song!
Also, I think a lot of Steven Taylor fans didn't like Adam's version of "Crying" or MJ fans deff didn't like David Cook's version of Billy Jean!
I think most of Cash fans wanted to kill Adam when they heard about Ring Of Fire!
However, it didn't stop Adam to include this song in GNT performance.
Again, happy for Adam that many people around world love him and his songs!

SAD AL (I think MAD AL sounds better)

I give a lot of credit to anyone attempting to sing an Adam Lambert song. I liked the first singer's energy and passion, but they both were okay. It makes me appreciate Adam's amazing talent even more. Adam can sing anything - he just has the pipes for it. That's why he's an International Superstar! I do agree Adam must be very proud to hear his songs sung everywhere. I also was so proud of Adam when he sang Ring of Fire and in the Grand Old Oprie
yet!haha

First time I drifted off on an Adam song, no intended offence. It is whenever I hear other people sing Adam's songs that I realize how difficult it is to fill those big shoes, boots maybe, latest medges. Drifting off...somehow medges don't sound like boots to me; it's difficult to catch up with Adam, way ahead of his time.

I guess until we hear others sing Adam's songs we don't realize how effortless Adam makes it. They did pretty good for a very difficult song and it it an honor for Adam and his music to be sung and known internationally.

This is awesome! OF COURSE NO ONE can sing it like ADAM, but to hear the ADAM fame that has hit the world is fantastic! The man is a freakin international superstar people!

Anonymous said...

What an honor indeed and the guys even wearing the guyliner! Fanbloodytastic! I don't think the US really realize just how BIG a star Adam is overseas, where he is adored! (FYE, AMA's and all!)
Miss Adam right now and miss all those incredible breathtaking performances of Sleepwalker!

Hi there, 'brainwashed' ladies! (SAD AL is.. sadly.. indeed.. slightly.. MAD. I don't really understand why :-)) As far as I'm concerned, it was more painful than fun to watch those guys. I do hold their coach responsible for that! (If she is, by any chance, a ..Bert, she's certainly not one of the smart ones)
BG stands for Bulgaria, the same country that gave (us :-)) another (and way better!) rendition of Sleepwalker. Do you remember Ivan Ivanov?

Anyone needing a quick Adam fix, here's Sleepwalker from St Agathe.

Have listened to this, especially the end, over and over again...UNBELIEVABLE VOCALS!!! And the gestures & the moves, not to mention THE EYES...He truly is in a league of his own!



No one better!!!

Yes it does make you appreciate the quality of Adam's voice when you listen to those two.
Adam does it effortlessly and beautifully!

It remindes me of an episode of 'Spectacle'... Elvis Costello said he wouldnt even attempt to sing a Rufus Wainwright song!

I hope Adam's songs get covered more and more often. It means they're good and people like them. It is an honor. We should stop comparing the cover to Adam.

Anonymous said...

@anon 6:41 PM I guess you understood what I meant when I talk about honor and Adam's fame!
Again,I don't think that Adam or anybody else can sing Bohemian Rapsody or We are the Champions like Freddie! It doesn't mean that nobody can sing it on competitions or even as movies background songs!. Also, you have to relise that Sleepwaker isn't Jailhouse Rock yet:)
Yes, Adam is genious and he has his big hit already and this is not Sleepwaker this is Whataya Want From Me. However, these kids want to sing Sleepwaker on this competition any they knew that this song is more difficult to sing and perform than Whataya Want From Me or IIHY. We have to give them credit fot this choice.

ROCKIN THE GUYLINER!! HELL YEAH!!! So happy Adams songs are being used, they're too awesome to fade into obscurity!
Overall they did a good job, but goodness there were some bum notes in there :(
