It's just been announced that not only will Adam Lambert be performing/premiering his brand new Max Martin-produced song "Welcome To The Show" on American Idol this coming Thursday (3-17-16), he will also be re-creating his iconic "Mad World" performance from his own season 8, which earned him a standing ovation from judge Simon Cowell.

So now we know why Idol was using Adam's performance from Season 8, Top 2, on Finale week in May, 2009, as their promo for this week's show! This clip in the promo was actually Adam's second televised performance of "Mad World", but equally awesome!

Are we all ready to buy the new single? Plus stream it on Spotify, Shazam it, watch the music vid if there is one, etc. Let's help Adam make this a hit.

I honestly think I'm going to cry when he sings Mad World. I'm so proud of him and happy for his success.

I will be watching can not miss this for anything. I love mad world, his vocals are beyond excellence. He looks to handsome in his long suite jackets. He is the best vocalist around. Wish all the best for Adam Lambert. Hope his voice is up to it being he was sick with strip throat.

This is such great news! TWO songs, one new, one classic. And Mad World has really becomes "Adam's song." He is so identified with it now. I remember both of his Mad World performances so well. The first one got Simon's first (and only?) stand O on Idol. The second was equally perfect, although Simon teased him about the coat.

It's a real testament to Adam's impact on AI that they are letting him sing a second song on Thursday. And yes, I'll be ready to view, Spotify, stream, buy, you name it, to support WTTS. Looks like NZ is already onboard and I hope his other international markets pick up on it right away.

And I hope he wears and killer outfit Thursday night. Killer.

I have a question. Does anyone know where can I watch AI live on the internet? I think there will be some live streams but I don't want to look for it just before the show. I live in Europe so I have to find the other way to watch it. I would be grateful if someone could help me.

I will be buying WTTS and hope it's a big success. I'm sure someone will be streaming this show--his concerts are almost always streamed.
