From idolator: Adam Lambert’s “Ghost Town” Becomes His Highest-Charting Single In 5 Years

Filed Under () by Adam Lambert on Thursday, June 25, 2015

Posted at : Thursday, June 25, 2015



Adam Lambert kicked promotion of his third album The Original High into full gear last week, which paid off nicely when it came to the Billboard 200; today the LP made its debut at #3 on the chart, behind only James Taylor’s 17th studio set Before This World at #1 and Taylor Swift’s ever-present 1989 at #2. (The Original High also bested new releases by Hilary Duff and Nate Ruess, who landed at #5 and #7, respectively.)

Does anyone think the American music awards controversy, help with "whataya want from me" becoming a hit?

I'm sorry to say that i don't think Adam's performance on the AMA's helped with anything.

7 million views ! Oooh-la-la. Actually, I didn't expect that in such a short time; maybe those ghosts got awakened by his tum tum tum drums and said: Hey, we need to harness our ghost power for this guy. lol! My guess is the children had something to do with it. When I saw the video of this little girl dancing non-stop to Ghost Town and sings only two words...tum tum tum Ghost Town...Ahh I said, that's the trick, the children, they have all the time in the world to replay the song. lwl! As for me, the song titillated my appetite to write ghost stories and poems from various angles. lwl! The next to hit will most likely be The Original High...his effervescent countertenor!

Just saw a tv commercial, James Taylor is touring. Damn

@5:48 and I still don't know who James taylor is

@5:56 James Taylor is just an American music legend. Nickname was Sweet Baby James, snag Fire and Rain, sold in his career 100 million albums. Just came out of nowhere, and sold 96 thou albums and is BB#1. Taylor Swift was named after him. Look him up, ex-husband of Carly Simon. Correlab with Carole King.

sang Fire and Rain.

James Taylor is definitely an icon. I'm thrilled that Adam made #2 right behind him. I agree...i think TOH should be next...after Ghost Town runs its, hopefully long course.....i think TOH will sell millions!!!

Has it been posted anywhere that Adam will be on the Talk on July 18th? If this is the case; this will be fantastic. I have been hoping for him to be on that show again; he was so good last time when he was on after his Grammy nomination! Going to go check around to see if it is officially listed somewhere!

Next I hope he will be on the view again also!

Tum tum tum Ghost Town
Hits 7 million view count
Effervescent sound
Paints the whole town
'Looking for trust...In a city of rust'
No problem...Ghost Town
Will take you there
Just show some dare
But do take care
Beneath the crust
There lies the snare
Cuz it's a city of vampires
Who will not retire
Till they pull you into the byre
So stay awake...your life's at stake
But there's a lot more than break
Well, how about we dance
Tum tum tum Ghost Town
Keep one eye open...follow handsome Adam
He leads according to his drumbeat
With integrity, sleek...that's the feat!

James Taylor is a an ICON indeed!!!:) "YOU'VE GOT A FRIEND" is one of the biggest song of all time baby!!:) My favourite song from his old album. I was a teenager when it hit so big on the radio. Adam is already an ICON at a young age and I'm so proud of him!!!

Reality check:

No need to feel James Taylor took anything away from Adam.
No need to compare the sales of these two, that's just silly.

Besides Adam has already had his #1 spot on BB200. This was James Taylor's first #1 spot on BB 200, and the man's been there for how many decades... There are many other worldwide known stars who have been there for ages and who do not have #1 spot on that chart under their belt...
