WOW... so the child is off to school and I'm finally able to listen to Underground without background talking from a small person. I absolutely love this. I like GT, its creative, current and a good radio song. Underground, however, is a beast. As Lyndsey Parker said... "And I’ve personally been whacking Repeat like a mouse banging against a food-pellet lever in a science lab experiment"
I hate to ask this... but does anyone think they electronically monkey'd with some of his lowest notes? We don't get many songs where he is singing multiple lines in a row in such a low voice. Its hard for me to tell.

The problem in the Netherlands is that we only have the explicit albums. The clean album is not for sale here so no Underground either. Heard it a few times this morning though (thanks to all the links!). It's amazing. His vocals are so terrific and I can see why some people think there are 3 people singing. The snapchat from GrayJoey also got the vibe real good. I was making quite the same moves already. Can't wait for the rest of the album. Adam pulled his tweets about the song down and Shoshanna commented about technical issues. I bet they will get it all ironed out before the day is over. wendy hayward @xxmisswendyxx @shoshannastone is @adamlambert putting a link as he's deleted other messages about underground shoshanna stone @shoshannastone @xxmisswendyxx the technical stuff isn't there yet, that's all 3:11am - 15 May 15 Thanks for posting this. I'm fairly computer savvy, so I couldn't figure out why it was completely unavailable to me. I even cancelled and re-bought the album. Thought I was going to need to get someone to gift it to me. I just need more patience. *sigh*

The ONLY time I've heard GT on the radio in the car was on Sirius # 3 "Venus". Haven't been able to catch it yet on my Bham station 103.7 The Q. SIRUS XM knows exactly how many people of listening to each of their stations and when. They know when they switch. You don't need to request from SIRUS XM but it is more like streaming -- they know you are there. Seriously? That creeps me out a little bit, probably because I wasn't expecting it.

He had tons of questions re TV appearances...and nothing... doesn't look promising imo
I think the TV appearances will be after June 16, or after TOH is released.
You are right, unless the single blows up, there is no use wasting a TV appearance when they want to sell albums. Without looking at a calendar, the song has 6 or 7 weeks to work it's way up the chart.

Holst I got that same impression from articles I read sometime ago. Now that Sam is in a good financial position, he should be able to hire the right people. I don't personally enjoy his music, but it's easy to acknowledge his talent. For his sake, I hope he saves and preserves it.

Can someone give me some info on remixes? I understand the basics.. used in clubs and generates awareness/sales. Its its own cottage industry, started back in the 70's during the DJ disco era. This is the full extent of my knowledge. In addition to this, I'd like to understand: 1) Remixes for sale... I assume are sanctioned and perhaps hired by Adam's team (Logical guess). 2) How much of a difference does presence in a club make on a song's impact in terms of sales or radio? 3) I've heard remixes on the radio when songs are winding down and management seems to want to extend the life of the song. But it would seem that the remixes should come out earlier in the life cycle of the song, rather than at the end. 4) I'm assuming the team could make club deals, like they make radio deals? 5) anything else you think is interesting to share.

Melliemom- your comments are so well stated. This is exactly how I feel in this era. I'm hoping for the best and am doing in the background what I am comfortable with and what I have ti e for, other than that, I have let go. All the signs are positive. Now it is up to adam, his music and new fans.

Momtomany- There is a huge difference between going to a M&G twice in 3 years and someone who is racking them up like notches on a headboard. I hope you enjoyed your time today.

Do we have the Shosh tweet that's been mentioned? I don't remember seeing it. I'm sort of surprised they aren't just blocking people.
