I think imo WBR after ALN, gave up on the era. So picked a song like WTTS to get tons of revenue of using it in sports themes. And obviousley streaming seems to be a priority for them atm. Partic after the monster hit GT was. So maybe they never intended on releasing a third single from the album. I can't believe it, that would make WBR no better than RCA. GT did good, so when they saw ALN is going nowhere, they should've swiftly moved on to the next single, instead of lingering on and on. I thought they signed Adam because they believed he can be a huge star if they just put in the initial effort. BTW, ALN was a very strange choice for 2nd single IMO. I wish I knew on what basis it was chosen. Adam said dozens of times that he chose GT to be the 1st single, so I trust that even if it isn't his choice to make, he was 100% behind it. But I don't remember him ever saying that he wanted ALN to be the 2nd single. Obviously he wanted TOH to be a single, or he wouldn't have named the album after it. MM and Shellback thought the song was so good, they decided they wanted to work with Adam based on that song. So why WBR wouldn't believe it can be a huge hit is beyond me. Unless there are still plans for the album that we don't know about. Lol I am sorry but that is riduclous. WBR is no where near RCA Lvl. RCA never had any investment in Adam at all. They diddn't put any investment in any of his singles. You can at least say they put tons of inventment in GT, and it becme a big hit. IT is not WBR or Adams fault that ALN diddn't catch on. When a song is choosen to be a follow up single, it is not always up to the artist. Alot of factors come into play. The fact it did not resonate does not mean WBR are not invested in Adam, it was just bad timing. And I Don't agree that just because Adam made TOH the name of the album, that he wanted it as a single. FYE was the name of his first album, and it wasen't 2nd single even. ALN diddn't go no where it was doing very well in streams, and moderate airplay internationally. Just because it diddn't become the hit GT did, does not mean they should of moved on Their was no reason to. I Ithink your giving Adam way too much credit, WBR were HUGE part of the relaunching of Adams recording career.

Hmm, I just got a FB friend request from Adam Lambert. I follow his official FB page, but I doubt it has "friends" per se. Might be that scam where someone makes a copy of a FB page, friends you, then tries to do whatever... I didn't click on it. Anybody else have this happening? Yes, I ignored it

I Ithink your giving Adam way too much credit, WBR were HUGE part of the relaunching of Adams recording career. Just need to fact check you. FYE was the first single released. It didn't catch on and after the AMA's they dumped it pretty quickly and brought out WWFM. I don't agree that Adam didn't want TOH as a single. I really think the plan was ALN through the winter and TOH in the spring. But ALN didn't catch on and then when TOH was released and did not go anywhere in Australia and it wasn't streaming strongly either, the decision seemed to be made to pull the plug. Perhaps they wanted the album TOH to be remembered for its massive hit and not go out with a whimper. Adam loved TOH - it was his ticked to Max Martin. But he is a practical person and this album got him a big hit and a tour so I am sure he is not devastated but equally sure he would have liked more singles and especially TOH to have been the hit it deserved to be. As always, timing is everything.

Yes, I ignored it Yeah, I asked a out it on Twitter, and someone directed me to a March 5 post on Adamofficial about similar scams. :http://forum.adamofficial.com/topic/63178-beware-fake-adam-lambert-impostersscam-artists/
it it happened to a friend of ours twice... Someone made an exact copy of his FB, sent out friend requests to all of our friend's friends, then started trying to get information. They hadn't actually hacked his account, but was somehow impersonating it.

Ellie G. elliegf Eeeeppp... today's Daily Mirror ???? Not much news I guess. Lol at his naughty secret: They aren't famous. My guess is "they" is meant to be gender-neutral (rather than saying he or she) ... not meant to be plural!
