Adam Lambert 24/7 News

Very nice. I like the way the American Idol voting incident is addressed.

Adam and Freddie are so different I have no Idea why anyone wants to bother to make a comparison.

Yes, Patria....I don't think I've ever seen the voting incident so carefully and completely explained. This is the first time I've seen a very DEFINITE explanation, completely out and aboveboard...finally. Adam has never discussed it, to my knowledge.

Patria....about people making comparisons between Adam and Freddie...it's sad, but many people cannot, or refuse to, make the "adjustment" between Freddie's and Adam's "Sounds". That's something I've noticed in a lot of music these days...there's a lot less "covers" being sung, and people act like it's a sin, or at least rather disgraceful, to sing a song written by someone else...that only one voice is allowed, or sounds "right" with that song!

That's also the reason the Marc Martel fans are so strident and insulting against Adam. Since Marc sounds a lot like Freddy, they insist that he is the ONLY one who should be performing with Queen.....and trash Adam at every opportunity. They even trash Brian and Roger for choosing Adam over Marc as their frontman!

Adam is the "King of Covers"IMO. He can interpret any song and make it his own! A recent example is his covers of Cher's "Believe" and Elvis's "Blue Suede Shoes". With his voice, technique, and unique interpretation, he can "inhabit" ANY genre that he wants to....better than anyone!

Brian and Roger revel in Adam's fresh interpretation and performance of Queen's music..."it's new, and dangerous" and exciting to them. They come from an older school that believes music is to be sung/performed by many different people...not to be confined to only one interpretation or one "sound".....and may the best performance win! That's why they deliberately let Adam "find his own way" with their music. How intuitive of them!

I need to listen to this it is about time the true story of this comes out.
I wonder if this is a small segmentfrom the TV show coming up. I remember after that happen there was a big time lawyer who daughter is a big Lawyer I think her name is Lisa Blume or bloom I'm not sure of the name spelling. She wanted it taken to the supreme court.sbe pointed out how unfair it was and how many votes could be racked up very quickly. She also said that much used after it happened comment couldn't hold a candle to Adam Lambert statement thst was much said after this happened. Not saying tbe whole thing because I know Adam and Kris were friends. I also think that is the primary reason he never discussed it.
Correction that was segment from. Couple other mistakes.
Adam said he accomplished what he needed in the show. But hands down he should have won it. It did not just happen on the finale it happened 3 or 4 weeks prior to the finale. I not sure that'd true are not. But if you think back Kris was in the bottom 3 a lot and then the lady few weeks near the end he goes way up. This is why all the other shows had always limited the amount of votes in different ways you can vote.
Idol finally did it towards the end when they did not have the large amount of votes to brag on. I believe they definitely limit them now. I rarely ever watch it now.
Correction that was last few weeks. Last not lady. Between my crazy fingers and my nuts phone no telling what I'll type.

I did hear that about it started happening 3 or 4 weeks before the finale from different people.so I'm not sure if it's true. I'll go watch it now I have not yet.

Sorry for big space.

Nanbert, I agree Adam is "The King of Covers". Don't know how he'd feel about that title, but it's been my thinking since Idol and hasn't changed a whit.

MM Is still singing a cover even if he sounds more like FM. It is still a cover and the same thing Adam's doing. The difference between MM and Adam is Adam can take a cover song and makes it his own. He makes it so fresh and exciting. In the case of Queen songs he does the same without straying to far from the original that Q fans may not like it he does a perfect job of it. MM impersonates him. But Adam has more remarkable stage prescense like FM was suppose to have. I never saw man in person
Videos yes. Adam has said one thing he will not do is record and already recorded song. He does such a great job of it I think it would be a remarkable album. But I understand how he feels. Looking so forward to new music. Mm fans are not in the least impressing Brian and Rodger I do not believe. Calling the two names as well. BRIAN AND RODGER are great human beings and brilliant musicians as Adam is as well.

Wow this certainly covered everything on Adam! Fun to go to memory lane and after all these years I still cringe when the American Idol finale is mentioned, remembering how Kris Allen was declared the winner my father and I looked at each with shock and my dad saying "what? Oh no that's wrong"! I was speechless and angry! I couldn't sleep for several nights! Adam was robbed!!!

Great video of Adam, was shocked he didn't win Idol,but sometimes as in Adam's case) the runners up actually have better careers, and thank goodness Queen were performing that night to give a 'glimpse' into his incredible potential !Great to look back at

@Angeladam
I never thought of it that way. What if Queen hadn't been there??? My mind can't even go there.

What about Queen? What would they be doing? Rami Malek??? Would the movie have gotten off the ground?

I've read so many times that Adam definitely should have won but it was better because he did not he could do more what he wanted. But he got the same contract Kris A. Did and was under contract for four years. Idle got one half of every single thing he earned for four years. It used to be ten years but they were sued it went to four.
The only difference is he may some less winning money than KA. But I ybe long run made a ton more
That how it was then and that year if they had not given Adam a contract someone else would have. After that year Idol started going down. Couple of the years it went up some but went back down then I think towards the end at foxton winner was probably lucky to get a contract.
I remember at first the managers from idol did good promoting him after while he had to pay them and pay another one as well to promote him. I remember how happy he was to get out of that four year contract of paying half to them.
Adam was the first and only idol contestant to have a world tour where he was the main attraction in idol history at least at fox. Dont know about ABC I imagine there as well. Sorry for mistakes.

Angeladam if you live in England is probably late there so you may not see this until tomorrow. I dont want to be mad and fight with you.
I still feel the way I do but this is a forum for different opinions. We should try in the future to keep it friendly.
I apologize for getting upset and angry
Life is to short for all that. I have enough problems worrying about my husbands health to get so upset over things like that.
Let's just agree to disagree. I wish Adam and Javi the best but I'm going to let them handle their life.
I know I told you to skip my posts. But I hope you read this. Anyway this should be a happy place to post. I apologize if I just got to upset over it. We are grown ups and should be able to have a conversation and disagreement without ripping each other apart.
It seems with one oetson disagrees then the other gets mad and it just blows up. We need to talk things out and if we dont agree we dont agree. But we dont need to tear at each other and act like the other is a bad person.
Correction that above that was when one person disagrees. Let's just try and be friendly if we disagree or not. This world has enough problems without me adding to it.

That was Adam was the first to have a world tour with his first album. Immediately after idol.

Sue Smith, Hi
I don't want to fight either, I, like yourself get frustrated, that's when we both get upset and angry, and then retaliate by getting a bit nasty with each other !!
I accept your apology and please accept mine too, it is silly bickering and we all have different opinions,just wonder what star sign you are ? I'm on the "cusp" of Aries/Taurus that may explain a lot LOL !!I am certainly nobody else, I was noname, but there is also a NoName one here, so I use my own name (Angela Adams) to save any confusion.
I really only want the best for Adam, (perhaps that's why I went a bit harsh on Javi) so yes we'll agree to disagree, but stay friendly for the sake of everyone else.
I hope your husband is getting better, sending my kind regards to you both xx

All the Adam/Kris stuff is just water under the bridge now. Things always work out the way they should. My Mom always told me that and I have found it to be true. I think Adam is in a good place and I don’t think he was ever upset about not “winning” Idol. He was always so kind and respectful of Kris. By the way, I have been watch Idol for the first time since Adam. They have maybe 5 or 6 really fantastic voices on there. None of the William Hung characters. Lol I have been enjoying it again and I really like Lionel Richie. The other two I could live without but you guys should tune in to see for yourselves. Have a great day everyone. Spring has sprung in my neck of the woods! Yay!!!

AngelAdam I am a Virgo we are suppose to be stubborn ect. So I guess that explains much. Yea it is silly to get so upset life is to short and this world is to crazy to add to any upsets.
I'm sorry that was Angeladam.
In the future if we disagree let's just talk it out without getting upset and getting angry.
I was pretty sick myself the other day so I guess that added to it.
Thank you for what you said about my husband I appreiate it.

Glamitup I agree it is water under the bridge. I think Adam was the only one that did not get upset over it in some way.
Adam is such a sweetheart he and Kris were friends. He did say he got what he wanted from idol. He done exceptionally well since. We may never have known Adam if not for idol. Not knowing of Adam what a horrible thought.
Adam brought so much to our lives.
I did watch idol some at the beginning off and on. I'm not crazy about the format they've gone to. However I saw some good talent on it. There will never be another Adam for me. However that's not to say there is not some really good talent and I hope they do well.
The show just so short it is hard to get attached to any one talent. I'll try and watch it some more this year give it a chance.

I think sometimes, these programmes produce very rarely a true talent, of course of which Adam was one, thank goodness he sang his second choice Bo Ho after he'd sung originally a Michael Jackson song, otherwise he may well have failed. Think sometimes, things are mean't to be, obviously Adam was mean't to be !

Yes I think it was written in the stars
For Adam some how to be ask to sing Queen that day. The rest is history as they say. I remember PA saying about Adam he a great singer the best we have heard in all cities. That was after Adam walked out of the room on that very special day we saw Adam for the very first time.
