I disagree that the shows with Queen hurt Trespassing.  Trespassing was released May 15, 2012 and the first Queen show wasn't until June. The Trespassing era was killed by lack of radio play and nothing else. It wasn't even really because the singles were bad per se, neither was worse than anything on radio at that time, yet they still didn't get play. Why? Because the people at RCA who has so amazingly supported Adam during era 1, Barry Weiss, etc., were gone.

I do agree that there will not be an album out by Spring.  I think the earliest we will get an album from Adam is October/November 2014 with a single released late summer/early Fall. 

In the meantime Adam tours with Queen in the U.S. and gets amazing press and media coverage which raises his profile leading up to the release of the single. 

You're right, Lay Me Down is never going to be a single.  No one ever said or even hinted that it might be so any disappointment people feel is all self-inflicted IMO. 

I had never heard of Ivy either but I had also never heard of Bonnie McKee, Nikki Acosta, Avicci, Greg Wells, and countless other people Adam has successful worked with.  Just because someone is unknown doesn't mean they aren't worth working with.  As for Melissa Etheridge, she's a highly successful artist whose career spans decades and generations/genres.  A duet with her would be fantastic if for no other reason than she's an incredible artist. 

IMO a true artist is always looking to create and expand on their creativity. They do not look at potential projects and think "is this going to "help" me" but rather they look at them and think "is this going to feed my need to create and grow?" If Adam only did projects that helped him he wouldn't be doing much because the truth is there is no one thing that will help him other than hitting that special, unknown factor, that will make him take off. And that might NEVER happen on a grand scale.

He's still fantastically successful and still does enough to keep his legions of fans entertained and interested and that's a lot more than most artists fans can say about their favorite.

Mszue! Yes! I loved Jennifer and had never listened to her much because of her being in the Country genre! Her voice is fabulous! Very impressed!
