Actually when Adam sang No Boundaries on S8 Top2, I liked it but perhaps with less instrumentation that camouflaged his powerful emotional vocals. But since it was proclaimed mundane, it was swept under the carpet. It might see the light of day again, perhaps showcase Adam's emotion and vocals more. But for this film, it doesn't seem to fit the slower flow of the situation and Adam is blasting his vocals in the background...something more dramatic or akin to the song will be better.
Adam is everywhere in the world and that is the Fact! IMO Adam`s No boundaries was better than Kris`s version. By the way Bruce S. was concerting here in Finland and presented Because of the night - written to Patti Smith. That could be The Song for the Idol finale Angie`s and Adam´s duet, what you think? Happy weekend! M
Well, No Boundaries was the 1st song of Adam's that I heard because I'm an international Glambert and didn't have satellite TV when Adam was in American Idol. But after the results of series 8 were announced, I heard people say that Adam Lambert should've won so naturally, I checked him out and loved what I heard/saw. Then I listened to Kris's No Boundaries followed by Adam's version and IMO there is no comparison. I fell in love with Adam's rendition on 1st listen - in fact, I adore it - and I've been a diehard Glambert ever since, now with satellite TV so I can see every program that includes Adam.
Consistent placement over a couple of days is good. How many Idol viewers didn't know about his cd? They must have seen the WATN segment and thought - oh he has a cd I better go buy it, lol. This is good.
Queenbert got Adam really known by the masses in Ukraine. Wish Queenbert would do a few more concerts in Europe and US. As soon as they hear him, people fall in love.
No Boundaries is my favorite song written for AI. I love the song - Adam's version of the song. It leaves all the other AI songs behind the starting blocks (imho).
I loved Adam's version of No Boundaries. I never understood why people dissed it so much. aAdam's vocals are amazing. Plus the emotions he put into it...unreal. True talent unmatched by anyone else.
I think Simon sort of put a jinx on the song by laughing at the overblown lyrics. Climbing mountains, loss of breath, pain, weathering hurricanes, lost your path, etc. etc. It might have been a theme song for Survivor or one of those endurance tv shows. Melody dramatic, but I agree with Simon about the lyrics, too much.
The general thoughts were that the song was written by Kara DioGuardi specifically with Adam in mind...because it was assumed that Adam would win the title. And quite honestly the lyrics fit him to a T in most respects. A little dramatic and overdone..Maybe. And yes, I think Simon rather jinxed the songs chances by his comments to Kara, but it was still a good song.. Which as we know, Adam could sing the ABC song and make it sound amazing..
I think Adam's studio version of "No Boundaries", in particular, was excellent. It was also his first official single (as it was Kris's as well) coming off of Idol. Unfortunately it went nowhere. And I listen to it every once in awhile when I break out my playlist of Adam's Idol songs.. The source of which is my iTunes acct. that I opened when Adam was on Idol so I could listen to the studio versions..and the live Idol show versions..and videos...after it was over. Best decision ever! Another of those "Things I Did Because Of Adam Lambert"... Just one item on a very LONG list.....
The only Idol finale song I've liked is Home. Usually they are pretty bad. You could tell Adam didn't really like No Boundaries and even Ryan said something to the effect of not really Adam's style. The general concencus at the time was that Kris did a better job with it.
Kris did do a better job with "No Boundaries." Idol winner songs usually suck and are rarely successful. I don't think Adam ever refered to it as his first single or ever sang it again. I'm glad he didn't get saddled with that song.
I read where Kris dropped song as it was difficult to sing. I have the FYE CD which I love the song. I also think Randy hurt the song by giving Adam negative critique and Simons put down hurt the song. Pretty sure the slurs were at Kara not Adam's singing it. I thought it mean spirited of Randy to dish cKara like that. The Dark Side
I am just happy to hear this song being played in the Ukraine. So many countries use Adam's songs,but the U.S. doesn't. Well they will realize soon they have to play catch up!

Ijust heard a little girl sing WWFM on The Kid Voice and she was fab.I couldn't figure out what country it was from.
That has to be the the happiest exit limo ride ever in Bachelor history in any country...wish I knew what what she was saying
TP is number one on Amazon shakers and movers right now. I don't think that translates to mega sales but is still fun.
The Adam Lambert version of No Boundaries? LOL.
aah so sad... I think No Bounderies sounded great here... despite the pain, just know that there is no limits for you... She looked so sad.
I actually liked it on Adam's version after a while listening to it.

Love No Boundaries. xxxx
Wish I could understand the Ukrainian language.

Loved your post 4:11

I thought it was a fairly good job by both.
I believe it was said it was more to KA vocals but Adam did a very good job on it. Sorry KA not beating Adam on any vocals.

The way I rem. it Kara said the notes was to high for Kris & Adam did do a better job hitting the high notes.
I am just happy to hear this song being played in the Ukraine. So many countries use Adam's songs,but the U.S. doesn't. Well they will realize soon they have to play catch up!
Kris dropped singing No Boundaries on the Idol Tour after just 5 concerts. It really brought down the energy level..and he substituted another song..
It was an excellent song blah blah yet it was quickly yanked from the tour. LOL.
Adam did a an excellent job on No Boundaries. He can "sing the phone book".. Doesn't mean it's an excellent song :))))
Is there anything Adam hasn't sang excellently? No Boundries and One come to mind.
So you want to speak Ukranian? In The Ukraine, they speak Russian as it was once part of Russia before the breakup of the USSR.
