Adam Lambert 24/7 News

Just lemme touch YOU!!!
Such UNFFFF pics...

Just heard ADAM's Ghost Town on my radio!"!!!!!!!

So while we are waiting TOH to drop, all I can say to ya'll FAB's out there:

Move away from your computers, ipads, phones, listen to GT really LOUD, crank it up and let the room be filled with ALL of it, the whistling and ADAM's VOICE and DANCE DANCE DANCE!

It needs to be heard and listened to LOUD!
Even if you don't wanna or can't dance, it will make your blood circulate better, heart beat faster... Friendly smiley!

@4:10 am, I respect your opinion, but I actually feel just the opposite. The older a person gets, the more "firsts" one experiences, and the more they may yearn for the feelings those original experiences evoked, hence the "midlife crisis". On the flip side of that, negative feelings or experiences seem more intense and scary as well when a person is younger with having less perspective.

Isn't Adam a little young for "midlife crisis"? I have too say as I've grown older I've experienced an acceptance with real life and more contentment. Life is full of ups and downs but we learn how to deal with them, as I'm sure Adam will in time, he is still very young and has plenty of time to find that inner peace we all long for. Heart ache, makes us stronger and helps us to appreciate the more positive things life has to offer.

4:42 AM

True but Adam's original fb high was a very specific type of Original High.

The lyrics "just lemme feel the touch like the first time" also tell you what inspired him to make this album in the first place.

OT: Adam's GHOST TOWN video/song just entered VH1 TOP 20; and was interviewed as a guest right after GHOST TOWN played at number 20!!! He looked so good. Very cute and playful interview, with friendly funny host. She and Adam had a lot of fun together. So happy for him. Very proud fan here!!!

I thought Adam said he was coming to Boston to promote his music. I guess not, eh? I guess they will never be playing his music around these parts.

I've been hearing GT on radio in Aus. several times each day plus Underground was played I've only heard this played the once.

@4:10 AM

Your statement IS such a narrow minded approach to life. You are assuming that everyone experiences the same things at the same age in their lives; nothing can be further from the truth. Some people start dating at 13 and others at 20 or even older; and everyone's emotional growth and experiences are different. Adam's circumstances in his life has taken him down his on path and feelings that maybe different then many other young men in his age group. There is no emotion and experience fits all in such complicated life experiences. If you are a mature thinking person, you should know that.

As Adam has said in just about every interview he is singing about not just himself; but also of others that that he has come in contact with in life's journey.
We don't know Adam personally. In any case; it is not our place or our business to tell this young man how to think or feel about any part of his life; past or present! I would think you would have your time filled with trying to figure out your own life and accepting other's for who they are; especially a young man you don't even know, aka the Glam One, Mr. Adam M. Lambert! Love him for who he is; or leave him as he is; YOUR CALL!!

Have a nice Glambert Day. Sandy G.

@6:35 AM
I never heard where he said that about coming to Boston; but, I am sure he would love to go everywhere and meet his fans. But, I don't think that is always Adam's call. That is what his Management and promotional team is for. They book him the places where first of all he is wanted, and where it will help promote him and his music.

If they won't play his music just because he has not appeared at their station as a guest; they probably had no intentions of playing it anyway. All the other singers music they play don't appear at every station and get played all the time. By the way, is, "them there parts", of Boston still in the Business of Banning?? Sorry, couldn't resist; bad joke I know!!!

Ghost town up to #168 on itunes..last night it was #180..last week it was #269

Here is a fan made video edit of Ghost Town with only guys in it pretty good. Like the original with Adam, just all guys deited in.

Everyone has their own ideas about what certain words mean. Some people have little expectation about life. To search and dream and live life to the fullest is wonderful. Why should Adam or anyone else have to settle and just exist regardless of their circumstances. Happiness has no age limit.

Do we vote buy playing the video on VH1?

YAY, so glad GT vid is finally on the "The 20"! Now maybe more people will see it.
The only way I can see to vote now is to give the vid hits.
When his other vids were in the Top 20 you could go on and actually vote, but I don't see a way to do that now.
Let's get him to #1 like the vid for "If I Had You".

Please allow me to share something with you and maybe you will fully understand Adam's song, "THE ORIGINAL High". My beloved sister just passed away with breast cancer on May 16TH. I lay by her side for the last two weeks of her life to comfort her. And WHAT DID WE TALK ABOUT? Our childhood, our youth, our dates, our crushes, our young true loves, our dances, our proms, our favorite teachers, our trips as children. We compared our youthful hopes and dreams to our real lives as adults. And you know what? We agreed that some of those youthful dreams were much better than our true life experiences as adults. And there you have it, my dear fans. Adam Lambert knows the human soul. "THE ORIGINAL HIGH", IS A MASTERPIECE OF PSYCHIATRY! I have just truly lived the original high of life's experiences. Sit by the side of a dying person and I will guarantee you that if they can speak, they will talk about their first original highs. Peace to all of you. Margarita Lady

4:10 AM DITTO!!

I think you nailed it, Margarita Lady. My prayers to you and your family.

My personal 'chasing' is something quite different from other people, or may be not. I am in a weight program, and I am chasing a dream of losing weight, and to get back to what I weighed 10 years ago. After having 4 children, the weight crept up, without me hardly noticing. Now my dream is to reach my elusive goal, which is taking a lot of hard work and concentration. This may not be my OH, but I know it will be an OH when I get there.
This something that Adam has worked on too, and he has encouraged me, he also works hard to keep fit and healthy, and will most likely for some time to come.

@Margarita Lady, please accept my sympathy in the loss of your sister. What a blessing that she had you in her life to give her comfort as she was dying.

Thanks for your comments. I do think even though part of Adam "chases the original high", so also seems very happy with his life right now.

Sometimes I wonder if those original highs seem better now than they actually were at the time because we get nostalgic when we think back on them? I'm middle-aged now (hate that word!), but I sure wouldn't want to go back to those teenage years!!

RosiePosie

4:42 AM Agree with you. I think Adam is suffering from that midlife crisis by now...

Since people are living into their 90's and a lot are reaching 100, I think 33 is a bit young to even infer that Adam might be going thru a mid-life crisis. Where he is a bit older than some others, is that he is just getting his teeth into his career, at 33, most other singers or musicians usually are at the stage that Adam is, are in their early 20's. Adam seems to be a late bloomer, but he is blooming nevertheless, late or not. As the saying goes, better late than never.

Really??... Adam is suffering a midlife crisis??

Sorry, but no way.. He's grown up in the years since Idol, and is no longer in his 20's but midlife crisis?? Please. It's called "reflection" and we all do it.. Age has nothing to do with it IMHO..

We all have our own "Original High"'s in our lives and looking back on them doesn't constitute any sort of crisis, midlife or otherwise.... It's part of our own personal journey. And Adam is no different in that I would assume..

Thinking back to those once in a lifetime thrills, those adrenalin rushes, is something we ALL do at times..

One of my "Original High" moments was seeing Adam perform for the first time ever (for me...) on Top 13 Season 8.. I was totally in shock, in a good way, and it's still frozen in a moment in time for me.. Another similar moment was seeing/hearing him performing LIVE for the first time at the Idol Tour in Seattle.. The atmosphere was electric and the Tacoma Dome was shaking and literally vibrating from the anticipation, the applause, the foot stomping: the cheering was deafening, and that was before he even started singing..

Adam no doubt felt that at his first Idol Tour performance in Portland, OR...

Another Original High for me was seeing my newborn son for the first time..

So many more Original High moments....Hoping there are more of those moments to come...

Nothing to do with with a Midlife Crisis.. Just awesome memories indelibly embedded in our hearts and souls forever..

Oh yeah, and that first kiss..

Well glitzy, you didn't keep pumping out babies so you could recreate that feeling of seeing your newborn did you? Adam isn't talking about reminiscing. He is talking about constantly chasing after that adrenaline rush.

Well @Anon 12:21 PM, I dunno about you, but I'm always up for a good adrenaline rush.. And a new Original High experience, so I'm with Adam on that..

Living life..

:)))

I think a lot of people chase the rush. We're always looking for something to create that excitement of the first time doing something, like going on a date with a new person. We all bring our past experiences and expectations to each encounter and use the old experiences to provide a measuring stick. JMO as time goes on, we sort of adjust outselves to accept each new experience/person for it's own uniqueness and value. Sometimes when you look back, something changes upon reflection and perspective. Adam has poured himself into this music and it represents his viewpoint at this time, which can and probably will change, today or tomorrow. I feel as if he's stripped himself bare emotionally and is using his vocals to express his regrets, unhappiness, loss, heartbreak and angst over the events and people in his life, from his experiences and viewpoint alone. His journey is not anyone elses.

I'm glad to see the birth of a child ranking right up there with seeing Adam on TV or at an American Idol concert.

8:36 AM, Great news!!

6:35 AM, it is being played in Springfield. The song is still being added to stations. Don't worry yet.

Here is a list of all the US stations it is being played on, organized by state.

Sorry folks, when I brought up a mid-life crisis in my 4:42 a.m. post, I wasn't actually referring to Adam. I just used that term as an example to point out that people much older than Adam "chase the original high". I think Adam's a very smart, driven individual who is trying to figure it all out -- as we all are -- and appears to be happy with the direction his life is heading. ;)

@10:10, good luck reaching your weight loss goal! Eating healthy and exercising should give you more energy to chase after those kids! I went to a presentation at work by a mental health professional who said exercising 3x per week for 30 min. has a similar effect to taking a low-dose antidepressant, so that's an added bonus!

@12:58, very well stated. You're absolutely right - his journey is his alone, and we should respect it even if we don't agree with everything he says, does, feels, etc. I mean really...the guy is awesome and I think we all know it!!

RosiePosie

I think I'll just stop sharing my personal life here. It becomes the stuff of snark and ridicule.. Keeping it to posting Adam news and commentary...

@Rosie Posie..
I just wanted to say I wasn't referring to your comments.. Thanks for sharing your thoughts..

@Margarity Lady
Thank you for sharing about your sister and the time you spent together in her last days.. Those memories are so precious...

I think it's hard enough to live an "ordinary life", with all of its twists and turns, people, acquaintances, pressures, etc. Perhaps we can all agree Adam's life is a bit extraordinary in it's scope and while Adam wanted and had expectations of what life would be like, he just seems to honestly be a bit surprised, things aren't what he thought it'd be like. I admire him for saying it has been different. Early on in interviews, I did cringe a bit when Adam was describing some of his interactions with others, but feel that he's tempered those remarks somewhat lately to not be so personal. So he's learning and will learn more as life progresses.

My mom is in a nursing home. Some of the residents also would like to relive some of their original highs. Have had some interesting conversations with them. Never to old to want that original high one last time.

@glitzylady
Please don't get discouraged or let some pathetic low life change anything you say or do. As one of the Admins you can and you should just delete any idiotic, snarky and plain viscious comment here. You know you are highly appreciated and valued as Admin and as your lovely self by all regular good hearted sane Adam loving fans here, have been for years. Hope you know that and toughen your heart not to react to obvious bullshitters. Some just are beyond repair in blogosphere. Let's Keep on Rockin for and like our Precious Glam One!

@Glitzylady, I'm sorry some people feel the need to twist others' words around. I appreciate it when you and others share things that give us more insight into their lives.

This comment may be met with a negative reaction by some, but waiting for the QAL concert to start at the United Center in Chicago was actually MORE exciting than the birth of my son! After I gave birth, I thought I'd have this flood of strong emotion right after he was born because I know other people have felt that, but he was whisked away for the docs to check on his health and I was just glad all the pushing was over! LOL I fell in love with him gradually over time, and had (and have) many precious, awesome moments that I'll always cherish. So...I completely understand the excitement of seeing Adam in concert!! ;)

RosiePosie

4:32 PM, I want everybody to be able to express their opinion here and nobody should be immune from someone commenting on what they say.

For Glitzy to delete comments just because she doesn't like them would be an abuse of power. Especially since we still do not have in writing what the rules are. Also especially because totally inappropriate comments about Adam have been left up.

The birth of my children, marrying my husband, graduating from college, all of these are infinitely more exciting and important to me than having seen Adam in concert or meeting him at a M&G. But I guess we all have different priorities in life.

@4:49 your comment is very dismissive. Of course we all value our loved ones above all else, and have fond memories of major life milestones.

At the same time, there are experiences we all (hopefully) have that are just fun and joyous. Maybe they aren't that deep, but they make life fun and counter balance the responsibilities and challenges that take so much of our energy.

Please try to be a little nicer on this blog.

5:09, well, on the off chance you aren't a troll.... anybody who doesn't belong to the same cult as the Duggars is disgusted by their son and their cover up.

Margarita Lady, I am so sorry to hear about your sister. It doesn't surprise me at all that in her final weeks she wanted to talk about highlights from her early life.

Love and light to you and your family

Don't think Eber's comments were problematic, and may have been due to comments by one or more Duggars about gays. Prob what's offensive is Duggars knowing Josh's history and presenting themselves as all apple pie.

5:28
I do agree with you, I am in no way defending the Duggars, or what one of their sons did 12 years ago. I thought his attack on them was uncalled for, and to post that kind of language is not right. It is obviously his own opinion and we all have opinions.
But is have lost respect for him, I have followed him before, and often did not agree with him, but I thought was a bit over the line.
I realize that there are many people who are shocked about them having 19 kids, me too.

Finally, if anyone is still reading this thread, I have a different reaction to the concept behind The Original High.

I remember being Adam's age and feeling some of the same disillusionment I believe he is talking about in this song. When I was a teen and young adult, I had dreams for my future. As I got older some of those dreams came true and some didn't. Life overall was a little disappointing -- more work and monotony than I had imagined in my younger days. I found myself in my early 30's thinking "is this all there is?" I think many of my peers were experiencing this feeling to some degree.

The good news is, that as we get older, we tend to be happier with what we have. But I agree completely with Glitzylady that it is important to find a healthy adrenaline rush now and then -- something that is just for fun and brings a little excitement to your life.

I remember one of my OH things was the first time I had a piece of See's Chocolates. I can still remember the luscious taste as it melted in my mouth, actually I can still re-enact that same high when I rarely, now, get a piece of See's.

5:39 PM, what bad language are you talking about?

ADAM's dad said NOTHING on Twitter that hasn't been said/thought by others in the media/online. NOW ... to the poster who has been spewing all this garbage on this site ... haven't you spoiled enough of these threads with your vitriolic remarks about Eber? This is an ADAM LAMBERT fan site ... not an open forum .. IMO .. and Eber is ADAM's 'DAD'! Your comments should not be allowed here ... IMO ... if Eber was MY dad ... I'd want them deleted ... never mind ... your right to speak your opinion!! Yes! you are entitled to your opinion ... just NOT HERE!! Go somewhere else ... I'm sick of everything you had to say against ADAM & Eber!! Don't bother to rebut ... I'm NOT INTERESTED!! I'm a Glambert & everything you have said has HURT me ... are you satisfied? Have a nice day!!

tess4ADAM(LAMBERT Outlaw)

The person complaining about Eber is a troll. Ignore them.

@Anon 4:43 PM
I don't delete comments because I "disagree with them". I occasionally delete comments that are extremely disrespect to Adam or to another commenter on this blog.. Or blatantly untrue and slanderous toward Adam or others.. it's called "moderation". This is an Adam Lambert fan blog and we reserve the right to make those decisions.. Most internet blogs have a sign in requirement. This one currently does not but it is possible we'll be forced to go that route again if the trolling continues..

I occasionally delete a comment if I feel I absolutely must do so..As do the other admins.. And I never delete comments directed at myself..

I'm an admin here and have the responsibility to make decisions for the threads I post.. I have no ability to delete on any other threads. That's up to Admin Fan, broddybounce and Admin (the owner of this blog). I do contact them at times to check their threads if the need arises..

I'm here as a fan of Adam and to cheer him on in his career and celebrate his milestones.. I hope everyone else here is here for the same reasons...

If I've spent the past 6 years following someone on the internet as closely as I have, then I'd say I rank that discovery as a pretty important event in my life. The discovery of the man that is Adam Lambert is most definitely an Original High for me.

@Margarita Lady, I'm truly very sorry for the loss of your dear sister. I can't imagine losing one of my sisters. May she rest in peace and may your heart be lifted by Adam's music.

I've been a devoted reader of another blog that didn't require signing in. Troll comments were ignored by the readers and were also quickly deleted. The same could be true here if readers here could learn to ignore troll comments and if those comments could be deleted sooner than 24 hours later as often happens here.

Dear Glamberts, thank you all so much for your beautiful kind words about my sister. They are truly appreciated. Love, Margarita Lady
