@tess4Adam
i checked on Amazon and here is the link to the physical CD for the single BTIKM: its an "import" and can be Pre-ordered here..Interestingly enough, it will not be released until March 20th...and its all in English so you can read it..much easier than Japanese if you don't read or speak it : ))

@glitzylady ...
THANX!! a million for the info ... I really would like to have the CD ... old school, I guess ... no ipods or phones so downloads are fruitless for me ... my computer is full ... gonna have to buy some flash drives to save all my ADAM stuff ... BTW ... one more thing ... ADAM will be performing at the NewNowNext Awards on LOGO .. Mon. April 9 ... not sure of the time ... last year he introduced Robyn ... this year he's performing ... he's also going to be on American Idol this year as well ... no date announced yet ... sure is a busy young man!! Thanx again for your help!! Love 'n Light

I read that the physical (hard copy) CD of BTIKM is also available in Germany and Austria. Why only in a few countries and not worldwide??
The US singer, Meatloaf, in London, discussing three singers that he is/was jealous of because of their "overdrive" voices: Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston, and....... ADAM LAMBERT (of course..). He said they are the only singers that he knows of who have this ability.

@Tess4ADAM
You're welcome! Happy to help..

The link I posted at 12:23 AM was I believe for the German one..BTIKM...
Please vote for Adam in the New Now Next Awards Superfan Site. Here's the link but unfortunately, the main site is under maintenance at the moment so we can't access the link directly ....
http://www.newnownext.com/awards/2012/categories/superfan-site-award/
I keep checking to see if it's up and running.
It would be wonderful for Adam to win this, and even more so since he's performing at the Awards.
I have to say that the blog that has been nominated is one that many of us are very familiar with and, like 24/7, has been with Adam since his Idol days. It's Adam Lambert Official Unofficial and the first site I finally got brave enough to post anything at all on. I have obviously made up for my reluctance to post anything on the internet since then! LOL!! I met some amazing people on there, we met up for concerts in the early days, beginning with Fantasy Springs, and all through that glorious year of Glam Nation, and is responsible for some wonderful close friendships. (The same with this blog..) The administrators, Carol and Lila are friends of mine too..They were sooo excited to know the site was nominated, quite taken my surprise..and its also something we would like for Adam as well. Because, as we know very well, his fans are the BEST!! I've been checking NewNowNext website, but it's till undergoing "Maintenance"of some sort, rather like the VH1 site, so as soon as its back up, it would be really great to vote on that as well. Another good cause!
Hi Glizylady and all!
I followed Unofficial Official after Idol season 8 when I badly needed :) any news about Adam L..
Well-maintained site with very clever and funny people. Thanks to them!

ps. very sunny and snowy in Finland
I love that Adam is going Top 30, but it frustrates the heck out of me that I haven't heard it on the radio once here in St. Louis!
Any St. Louis Glamberts out there? Please start requesting BTIKM. I've tried Y98 and Z107.7, any other suggestions?
Let's get Adam going in St. Louis!!

Glitzylady, thanks for the info re that blog site we must vote on for the New Now Next Award.
Watched the Meatloaf interview where he talked about the "Overdrive" vocal technique. There's a link to where a singing teacher talks about the different techniques of singing:

Lots of great news! FYE going platinum, Adam performing NewNowNext and AI. Kudos from Meatloaf once again. And congrats to the Official Unofficial fansite! This was my FIRST site to visit regularly. I've branched out to several others now, but still like it! Good luck in the voting!

JAK here........can I be a St. Louis Glambert too if I was born there in 1935 in the post hospital at Jefferson Barracks? I understand the whole area has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. I doubt my being born there had anything to do with that!
After living in more states than I have fingers to count I am now a Tampa,FL Glambert. Unfortunately, I have never heard Adam's music on the radio here! :(
YAY on the radio news!!!!!
Thanks for everyone's great posts on this site all the time!

Hey JB I to request BTIKM in St. Louis and get nothing. Same ten or twelve songs over and over. How does an artist get spins, when a Rhinna or Madonna is an automatic play until your sick of hearing it.
KE
JAK here...Oh Boy! He's nipping at Nickelback's heels. They are my daughter's great passion of the moment....now if he could skip over them and head on up the chart...I could crow! Go Adam!
Frustrating yes...but keep requesting! Respectfully of course, but keep at it.
I also used to frequent Adam Official Unofficial until I came upon this site! I love this site because it is sooooooo easy to use!!
Good new for that fansite...yay! I voted for them yesterday when i saw the tweet.
@MGF it's good to hear from you! I guess RL is still a major factor as to why we don't hear from you much??
BTIKM is rising and Adam is going to lots of radio stations over the next week or so. Some of these songs will become recurrent so Adam could move up a couple of spots. Once top 20 we should be hearing the song on a more regular rotation.That will happen on HAC before top 40 though.Keep requesting, that's the key right now. If they play it text your station and thank them too.
JAK, I can use any help I can get requesting BTIKM in St. Louis. Just phone or e-mail them so that I'm not the only one doing it! I don't know how they'll respond when they find out that you're calling from Florida. They will assume that they don't have a large Florida audience!
Thanks,
JB
I also hung out at Adam official unofficial at the start and got to "know" the regulars.I changed to this site when I found out about it as it is so up to date.Both great sites and so precious to us.

OMG, it is still unlimited easy voting at VH1.
http://m.vh1.com/music/top_20_countdown.rbml
Just select Adam at the top of the list and hit the vote button at the bottom of the list. If the vote again button doesn't work I use the drop down in the address bar to go back and vote again.
Believe it or not, I heard IIHY for the first time here in fla. Never BTIKM except on sirus xm a few times. Seems this state is so behind. Same songs over and over, sometimes same song on 3 or 4 different stations at the same time. I'm always turning the station trying to find adam lol
feel very sorry for all the people in Mo. & ILLinois that was hit by the tornadoes last night & today it did tear some siding off of my garage I heard the roar it came off my garage & hit the side of my house that was bad enough. JB you are not the only one that has requested BTIKM on the St.Louis stations I have been & also Springfield Ill last sunday they told me 3 different times they would play it my granddaugher & I listened all afternoon they never did play it. I was ticked off they lied to us.
Anon 7:25 I have never heard IIHY in California.
Anon 9:01, I too have done the same, but I have always wondered how long the que is on average for radio stations. I am learning that there is a regular rotation, but don't know where requests fit in to that rotation.
I did find some info on how radio stations decide what to play: (there are other pertinent links there as well)
http://entertainment.howstuffworks.com/top-404.htm
Here is a link to American Idol top25 regardless of whether they won or not. It shows each ones radio spins, albums sold, digital downloads and youyine videos watched for each. Adam comes in at number 8 with Kelly Clarkson at number one (bear in mind she has 7 years on Adam!

@ JB........JAK here
I have called in a posse of nieces and their daughters to make some radio station calls requesting that Adam be played in St. Louis.
It's still home base for many members of my family. I talked with one nephew and when I said Adam Lambert, he said "WHO"? So he's no help. Oddly enough, even the females who weren't necessarily fans......ALL knew who Adam was!!!!!
9:01 here thank you JAK we need all the help we can get in this area 99.7 kiss fm are the ones that lied to me central ILL needs all the help we can get. 1 hr south of St. Louis we seen Adam at the peagent & also seen him on AI tour in St. Louis we did get a autograghed picture I have mine hanging with all my family. Heres to a speede recovery for you. with luv
9:01 here I meant 1hr. north of st.louis thank you.
