Adam Lambert

Hey, Scaramouche, will you do the fandango?

Adam Lambert is Brian May’s chosen one to front Queen — so is the American ready to be Freddie full-time?

Filling Freddie Mercury’s shoes must rate as rock’s most daunting situation vacant. Fronting a performance by Queen, to be seen by a TV and internet audience of millions, with only one week’s notice is certainly a challenge few established singers would be willing to accept. Tarnish their memories of Mercury and Queen’s fans will never forgive you; try to outdo the flamboyant front man and you’ll fail.

"Better Than I Know Myself" lyrics

Better Than I Know Myself

Written by: Claude Kelly
Produced by: Dr Luke & Cirkut
Performed by: Adam Lambert

VERSE:
Cold as ice,
And more bitter than a December
Winter night:
That’s how I treated you.

And I know that I –
I sometimes tend to lose my temper,
And I cross the line.
Yeah, that’s the truth.

PRE-CHORUS:
I know it gets hard sometimes,
But I could never
Leave your side
No matter what I say.

Adam Lambert: The Out Interview

The Out 100 Breakout of the Year on life inside the Idol machine, out in the real world, and in the love game.

By Shana Naomi Krochmal

In early October, Out sat down with Adam Lambert for an hour-long talk about his upcoming album, life inside the American Idol machine, and how carving out a career in the music industry is still easier for him than being in love. (Lambert and then-boyfriend Drake LaBry broke up following that interview, after Out went to press.)

Part One

In the first half of our extended interview transcript, Lambert gives us a play-by-play from the center of Fox’s PR storm, talks about his taste in men (hint: “pretty” is pretty important), and gets graphic about just how far curiosity can carry you.

Out: Let’s start off by talking about Lady Gaga.

"Adam Lambert: Cool, Calm and Eclectic", LA Times, November 8, 2009

The singer’s genre-busting major label debut, ‘For Your Entertainment,’ drops Nov. 23, and it just might make him an American idol all over again.

Kicking off another typical seven-day work week in the offices of his management company 19 Entertainment, Adam Lambert fixed his gaze on his own pretty face. Scattered across his publicist’s desk were proof sheets from a photo session with the singer, who will release his debut album on RCA Records, “For Your Entertainment,” Nov. 23. The shots captured Lambert in typical glam-god poses: peacock, street tough, space oddity, freaky adventurer in the boudoir of the damned.

American Idol” runner-up Adam Lambert sat down with writer Fred Bronson for a wide-ranging interview. In Part One, Lambert talks about his early musical influences.

We know from watching “American Idol” that you were raised in San Diego, but where were your parents living when you were born?

Where has my life gone? Shall I turn this to the Adam Lambert Terrapolis site? The most epic WLL and only day 2.

The EPIC Whole Lotta Love video synched with audio that won’t burst your eardrums

While waiting for Torchwood Epi 2 to be downloaded and obviously having no life, I remixed the great Tacoma WLL video footage (with OTT screaming fangirls and crap audio) with the one with the crappy visuals but decent audio (still features screaming fangirls but at least you won’t go deaf listening to it)

I’m still dying from the epicness of this video. OMFG

Dying from Adam Lambert Portland AI concert videos

My mind has gone to mush. It has been mush for the last 2 hours. *DYING* YouTube and Twitter are both blessings and curses. I can’t even type properly anymore

I don’t know if I’ll post anything else in this space. Maybe later when I’ve recovered.

No wait.

I’ll just post my Portland YouTube playlist here. OMG I’m a genius.

And presenting to you my favorite performance of the fuking night:

ETA: No guess what, we need the 21st century answer to David “GlamFking” Bowie here:

Adam Lambert Billboard interview (Led Zeppelin totally cleared Whole Lotta Love because of him)

Some really interesting tidbits in this interview with Adam. This is one of the more insightful replies I’ve heard from him, probably cos the questions weren’t dumb and the interviewer, Fred Bronson actually did his homework). The highlight for me was the Led Zeppelin tidbit. Led Zeppelin (or I’m guessing Jimmy Page in this case) cleared Whole Lotta Love just because it was Adam and knew he could do the song justice (Yes Gokey I still haven’t forgiven you for butchering Dream On)
