Unreleased Adam Lambert / Avicii / Nile Rodgers Track "CALICO" Posted By Avicii Fan! (UPDATED)

So, it turns out that Adam Lambert, Avicii and Nile Rodgers, who collaborated on the incredible track "Lay Me Down" in 2014, recorded a second track called "Calico" — and it has been posted it on YouTube!  Thank you, Gelly, for finding it and tweeting about it — we love it!

 
UPDATE: The first video we posted has already been taken down by the user, unfortunately.  However, an Adam fan from South Korea just posted the song and, not only that, they made a music video out of it featuring clips from Adam's "Another Lonely Night" video and a few other pieces of source material of Avicii and Nile.  Fingers crossed it will be up for awhile.

BONUS FLASHBACKS!  "LAY ME DOWN" — Original Vevo video single of song (no images of Adam), as well as Adam performing the song at a solo concert in 2016 (with Terrance dancing!) and at the Avicii Tribute Concert in 2019.

Love ‘lay me down’ saw his performance of this at the London Hammersmith as few years back great sing !

Wow! That's a wild one! Adam just slays those Avicii songs! No surprise there. Wonder why "Calico" was never released. I also wonder how many other gems by/with Adam are still unreleased. I'm sure Adam has a lot he's set aside, too.

I really like Calico! Wonder why it never saw the light of day? But then, Lay Me Down was not chosen as a single either, so go figure. I think Calico would have had a chance at radio play. Shoulda woulda coulda. When Adam sings Lay Me Down, Fever and (that other one, LOL) it's always a highlight for me. Help me with my brain freeze, please.

Hey Folks: video I posted earlier has already been removed from YouTube by the user! But another YouTuber, who obviously is also an Adam fan, and is from South Korea, has posted it again, but they did so as a music video they created using clips of Adam from his other music videos! It's terrific!! Blessing in disguise. However, I don't know how long it will be up, so ya better take a look at it quick!

Slight correction: the clips they use are mostly from the "Another Lonely Night" video plus a few other pieces of source material of Avicii and Nile.

Dee R Gee said...

Thawed out my brain freeze. It's LMD, Fever and Shady. That's the perfect trio in Adam's shows.

Thanks for the added info, broddy. The song sounds really. Some people may prefer to know what it's about. Others may prefer not to. LOL Adam's voice is magnificent, as always

Apparently Oliver has gone back to Denmark to finish his schooling. What happens after that is anybody's guess. He seems to have a career plan which may or may not include working in the US. He and Adam seem to be getting along fine. Stay tuned, and we'll find out eventually.

Nanbert said...

For what it's worth....I'm pretty sure that the background voices in "Calico" are Adam's voice, too. Any comments?

Also, I have to point out that the tie-die outfit Adam wore on tour in the video above is one of my most favorite costumes on him...EVEN over all his glitzy costumes....go figure! Loved his dancing then, too...he seemed so happy on that tour! It's very uplifting to watch the videos from his performances then...they always cheer me up.

FYI... the only costume I liked better on Adam was the gold-fringed "wings" he wore with those black leather pants and vest...sigh...on the first NA tour with Queen. I still think those "wings" should be in the Smithsonian or the Rock Museum....or maybe Queen has its own museum...or the Wax Museum. They need to be memorialized, IMO.

Nanbert, I have to say that the blue outfit in that video is one of my favorites, too. The fit and the color and design are perfect for Adam. Love the choreography in this show, too. I wish he dance just a bit more in future shows. Doesn't have to be big production numbers, just him simply moving with the music in choreographed dance. It adds a big dimension to a song, IMO.

His mom Leila and her husband, his brother Neil and his wife, were there too!

I'll bet that big blonde wig of Adam's is terribly itchy! It would drive me crazy!... it does just looking at it!

Nanbert said...

Adam's Mom looks beautiful...as usual. Still haven't seen any photos of Eber here.

Mi Re La said...

Manbert, Phothos with Eber at Adam's WIG Bday party!

I knew that pic of Eber and Leila etc. would show up. They are such good sports. Adam's lucky to be so close to his family.

Patria said...

Nice pics of Leila and hubby, Neil and his wife and Eber. I'm good.
Thanks for bringing them all in here Mi Re La.

Patria said...

There's s pattern to Adam's boyfriends. I hope he finds a for-the-rest of-his life relationship.

btw I read Javi wished Adam a happy birthday - forget what he said tho.

Nanbert said...

Patria....maybe Adam needs to find someone whose visa won't expire....or who has already finished school...OR... is an American post-graduate living and working in L.A.!

What's wrong with made-in-America?

Mi Re La said...

I read somewhere that Oliver is already returning to his country. After learning in the USA and experiencing the life of a star, he goes to continue his life elsewhere with people closer to his age, probably.
The story repeats.
