The Third Album is the best so far. Immersing in the TOH music is like a pulsating experience. Catching the High : Looking at Life's patterns from this High Perspective.

THIS! 'Gelly @14gelly 1h What I know is that EVERY site is mentioning Adam's name not only inside the article , but at their tweet too. I am fine with that ' 'Gelly @14gelly 48m Very good article www.bustle.com/articles/25580-aviciis-lay-me-down-video-is-missing-something-important-hint-adam-lambert-video …' AVICII'S "LAY ME DOWN" VIDEO IS MISSING SOMETHING IMPORTANT (HINT: ADAM LAMBERT) — VIDEO When Adam Lambert first premiered “Lay Me Down”, the song he did with DJ Avicii, it was basically the club hit we all didn’t know we’d been waiting for. The fact that it’s the fifth of the singles released from Avicii’s True doesn’t do the song enough justice, unless Avicii was saving the best for last. Lambert provides all of the vocals for the song which, when combined with Avicii’s music, makes for an incredibly addicting track. For some reason, however, the music video for “Lay Me Down” was less of a music video than a concert video. The video follows Avicii as he heads onstage to perform the song for an adoring crowd of concert goers as a show identified as “Live at Tele2 Arena”. The show is so good that the concert ends on a shot of one of the fans crying. Not that I blame her, considering they paired the song with smoke machines and bursts of flames. It’s as if the eargasm everyone was having was somehow an underreaction. Why Avicii chose to film a concert instead of pairing the single with an outright video (like one that actually features Adam Lambert) isn’t immediately clear. Maybe by the fifth single on an album, you start running out of steam as far as elaborate videos go. However, pairing “Lay Me Down” with a live concert does force the viewer to focus on the song and their reaction to it more than they would have if they’d had to follow the plot of a video while they listened. Lambert might not appear at the concert, but his vocals are the heart and soul of the song and they match up perfectly with the smoke columns and shooting flames. That particular show took an already good song and made it great, so we can’t blame Avicii for wanting to immortalize it as part of the music video. He’s in the habit of keeping his vocalists uncredited anyway, controversial though that decision might be. At least when you get up and start dancing around your room to the song, you won’t be missing much in the music video besides people doing the same thing. I agree with a lot of you here and with Q3 that the writer has missed the concept of what HOUSE MUSIC is all about. I used to wonder about this - how a Club DJ could command such a following . But many young people are more interested in the beat of a song than in analyzing lyrics … and this is what the video is globally announcing- I do not think it is denigrating the singer nor the song writers it is for me an announcement that the beat of LAY ME DOWN could create such a reaction almost like mass hysteria from a huge assembly of young people CLUBBING in an arena.
I am actually excited that LMD is presented in this way. A song that Adam brought to life with his vocals could arouse abandonment to the beat. SHROUD

I am almost relieved... for the obvious reason - I don' t have to watch it!!!! and milliemom won't have to remind us to spin the YTs! ....those are all the positives I could come up with... HaHa you are sooo right Now I don't have to watch idol either and no YTs. Nica you are a mind reader,just what I was thinking. I truly can't take Idol or the Voice.I can't believe they are bringing yet another Reality talent show to TV Star Struck or something.. Still love the reality dance shows..That's it.. sorry for the mini rant I thought at first it would be cool to watch Adam and Queen back on Idol stage …. performing a set like what they did for IHeart but later realized … its going to be Idolcentric … not so keen anymore… hoped it won't happen… now glad it will not happen… and yes … relieved… I don't have to watch Idol next week...

My " monumental " Adam moment was when I finished my first Adamwork. It was like making his persona a part of my world. It was like making his music into a palpable reality. This was my first Adamwork. INTERTWINING MEMORIESAnimated!! I just wanted to say that I LOVE your art. It always makes me look twice and think, it is fascinating. Although Adam is the subject, it doesn't stop with him, it goes on and says something about you and maybe even more than that. This work makes me think of some early 20th century paintings, a pierrot by Picasso maybe? But then a very cocky one. Is there a place where I can find all your works? Do you make non-Adam related art as well? My digital artworks are just kept private . It's my sanctuary. I have made hundreds of ADAMWORK . All those I post here are all for my fellow Atopians. Please enjoy at will. Thank you for your enthusiasm for this Adamwork. Yes Adam evokes artistry. He is stimulating, isn't he?

I enjoy reading the discussions on the Queen songs… I love the way some of you shade in your own color to the lyrics…. I am in awe … how well you conjure the emotions behind the song, even if its the car song…seems nothing to it … but your discussions breathe life into it... When I am working or trying to express my thoughts in digital art, my favorite back ground music is Queen's -MOTHER LOVE I am not good in expressing my feelings in words, and below is what came about while I was immersed in MOTHER LOVE I hope someday Adam will have his version of this song... "My body's aching, but I can't sleep My dreams are all the company I keep " - Queen- Mother Love lyrics

Oh yes Adam is Golden. Strange , I was thinking about expressing Adam in gold, and I drop by and visit Adamtopia after a very very long break , and here it is. " Adam is Golden, What is a "Genuine" Hit " !!!! RHYTHM AND HUES" I am not trying to be sexy . It's just my way of expressing myself when I move around." Elvis Presley
