I think that Adam learned a lot from Brian and Roger. They have what Adam wants: longevity, respect, and a catalog of great music. This did not come overnight. They didn't smash onto the scene with instant number one singles on the radio. They weathered their own controversies and rises and falls of fame. And now in their sixties, with their fortunes made and their reputations as rock royalty, they are performing again for the joy of entertaining and because they love their songs and their audience.
From comments Adam has made after working with Queen, I think he has a more focused perspective on the worth of his music, whether it is #1 or not. He has made a few comments about "is it a good song?" and "Do you LIKE the music?" His recent comment about enjoying being part of a great band also speaks to the lessons with Queen regarding the joy of making music.
Adam also probably got a lesson in balance and savoring the moment, listening to Roger and Brian talk about their long careers, their other interests and their once-in-a-lifetime partnership with Freddie. All these things I think Adam already knew at a basic level, but were reinforced by the wisdom of two of rock's legends.
Regardless of the cred the Queen concerts gave Adam, or the thrill and honor of making music with them, these life lessons were probably the most important aspect of working with Queen. I think that is reflected in his tweet about the glass half full.

Didn't he say the delay of Trespassing album was due to record label logistics as well? I might be wrong, but I didn't find the irritation in that tweet today. It's just an excuse to me. I find that if Adam is unable to deliver what he has promised, he would address it in whatever way he can. I am with soaked on this one - it sounded to me just as an explanation of the delay of the "a week or so"... I did not sense any frustration in it... I did not analyze it when I commented but I guess when I read it, the "What's new?" struck me as frustrated. It is a very common Jewish-American expression and "What's new?" usually accompanied by a shrug incorporates some frustration. But clearly Adam was not resigned to just giving in because he added "I'm pushin' trust me." Adam Lambert @adamlambert @spreckles single announcement got held up by some record label logistics. Whats new?! I'm pushin' trust me. Cover looks FLY though. But trust me, I did not break it apart and analyze this before I posted. I read it and, since I've heard that expression for decades, it is how I heard it. |

fixed!! Just need to delete the "s" on "https". I doubt Justin is designing his merchandise and album covers. So perhaps whoever is designing it is copying Adam. |

Yes.. because that Trespassing color that Adam has is really catchy in the eyes.. that's probably why JB's designer's copying it.. but this design has to be approved by JB and his manager though right?? |
