I never get sick of listening to Adam, the same songs over and over again. I never get sick of watching him, over and over again. I keep asking myself if I have ever been this attached to my husband. Yes, of course I have. But there is something about Adam that wraps me in warmth and happiness, joy and beauty. I wish I could know what that extra thing he was born with is and how do you get it? Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could feel this for other people we may not be so crazy about. Just to be part of Adam's life and Atop gives me peace and happiness. It is such a strange deal - this loving Adam Lambert. I hardly ever post, but I lurk here every day. I had to reply to your post because it reflects exactly how I feel! the depth of my emotions about Adam are so strong and confusing. I can't understand how I can feel so passionately about someone I've never met. I have a wonderful busy life and I got along just fine BA ( before Adam ) but I don't think I could now. Or at least I don't want to! Listening to Adam sing or just talk, watching him perform, and being part of this fandom bring me peace and joy. I've been to 10 concerts so far, including two with Queen and Thursday in Worcester and can hardly wait for the TOH tour. There, I said it!

I am not sure this schedule is right -- because the M&G schedule does not match it. This would indicate a 25 minute set... Previously that is about what I thought he might get when mixed in the middle of the evening...but as a headliner at the end 25 minutes seems short...or due to so many performing--- maybe shorts sets occur, for all performers. Is this like the Canadian Video Awards where A and B stages are side by side and they alternate performers to avoid any down time???? Related to the M and G...where do you think Adam fits in?

Adam is not "the" headliner -- he is closing the show. Two different things. The billing has Adam #3 -- after Robin Thicke and Shawn Mendes. Here is the M&G schedule: Alessia Cara M+G – 5:20pm § Becky G M+G – 5:40pm § Charlie Puth M+G – 6:00pm § Jocelyn Alice M+G – 6:20pm § Omi M+G – 6:40pm § Shawn Mendes M+G – 7:15pm § Nathan Sykes M+G – 8:00pm § Adam Lambert M+G – 8:20pm § Robin Thicke M+G – 8:40pm § Silento M+G – 9:10pm

Ha, gotta play too...
...and thanks for all the new voices joining our conversations, always great to get newer, younger, different perspectives.
For me ALN is a good winter tune. Lonely winter nights, when seemingly everyone else is not lonely, i.e. Xmas, Valentines, New Year.
As far, as it being too slow to make the jump from HAC to CHR or to any dancefloor, isn't that what the remixes are for? I keep streaming the remixes and it adds that variety and more of a rhythm. CHR Radio could use these remixes too, hope they will do so, some are pretty close to the original song, they are not chopped up, like some other remixes I have listened to.
Hope, the streaming link works:
I hope ALN will continue across the Xmas break and through the winter months, but just to add to the ongoing discussion: I think that TL is more of a dance track, and CHR worthy, and has the best chance of gaining traction quickly. It's a good song for spring, where we venture more outdoors again, and towards more light. So, it could be a good March to June/July song.
Adam can do promo in March to introduce the song, and maybe even perform it on Idol, given that the show will not be around in May to do any promo, then. Hopefully, he can add a few other shows, and with TV, radio promo + streaming, I think he can have another big winner. The song has huge potential, imo, maybe even more that GT ever did.
TOH, I see more as a late summer track. It is sultry and hot, but also full of reminiscence. Adam cannot do any US promo, while doing the QAL concerts in Europe, so introducing the song in August, when he returns, seems to be perfect, maybe promo in EU, while he is over there, before August.
TOH is a bit of a conundrum for me. I want this song for Adam, this is his baby, where he can finally say: I wrote this, without there being any nay-sayers having a go trying to discredit him as song-writer. This demo was done, and he took it to M&S and they liked it. That is top cred, right there. So, I sure want this to be a single for him. But, personally I have to admit, I cannot connect to this song so much, and that worries me, as I have heard others say so too. It is a song, that I understand, as Adam telling me about himself, where he is in his life, but it translates less for me, than it normally should, with such a generic topic about dreams and goals we all have. It is not that I don't like the song, it just does not make me jump up excited, like GT and TL have both done for me right from the start.
EITN is also a great radio worthy track, but not sure NY wants to see any bombs over Broadway any time soon, so that is a bit concerning these days, unfortunately.
And while I am planning out my wishlist....could Hollywood please discover the magic that is this album and use some of it in movies or TV shows? That would be really great too.
ETA: Can someone pls let me know, in case the Spotify embed further up does not work. It does seem to work for me, but then, this is my Spotify account, not a generic address, so I am just not sure, how it looks for someone else. Thanks.

I so agree with you Vivlite..some folks wanted Ghost Town done and on to the next song.. way to soon. and look what happened it became a hit around the world.What's everyone's hurry? If we don't stream and support ALN which I happen to love,it won't have a good run . If it doesn't become a popular song there just might not be another single.. I read it takes a million dollars to make a video.. Please put you effort behind ALN.If you have another favorite song you can always play your TOH CD,if you bought one or 9 like I did.LOL How did the discussion re a favorite song turned into an assumption that there is "no support for ALN"? I LOVE TOH most of them all (well, TL and After Hours come close) but I religiously support ALN by doing all the BSC-fan-prescribed stuff , i.e. voting, spinning, streaming, buying, tweeting... etc, etc, etc... so, no worries imo re ALN support ... we are a great team! I think everyone here is streaming/supporting the hell out of ALN. The issue is not that we can't play our faves on the CD. It just that we're getting worried about ALN's lingering lack of success. I'll refrain from elaborating on my reasons on why I don't see ALN becoming a hit (unless u want me to) to avoid upsetting the fans. There was at least some momentum with GT, and it was slowly getting into people's playlists and DJ sets. ALN seems to be stagnant even after appearances on 2 biggest UK TV shows, something that GT didn't get. A month after official radio release and over 2 months after Video debut and promo. What's scary is people saying there won't be another single if this flops. Who made that rule? With that thinking there wouldn't have been WWFM after the disastrous response to FYE! They knew they fucked up once and put their bet on the next one. Wouldn't it be worse if they exhaust too much of their resources and time on beating what may end up being a dead horse, while GT's success and Adam's reputation as a hit maker fades away? It does not mean we have given up kicking ALN to move
