The Complete Guide to Adam Lambert's 'The Original High'
Here's everything we know about the 'American Idol' star's upcoming third album, featuring song snippets, the dramatic backstory and more
THE BUILDUP
Creative differences prompted Adam Lambert to leave his former label RCA. According to Lambert, his post–American Idol label wasn't into the idea of him heading back into the studio and working on fresh material. Instead, they wanted him to do an '80s cover album, which Lambert said was "the only kind of release they are prepared to support." Our man inked a deal with Warner Bros. Records within a day of leaving RCA. The next step was getting in touch with producers and writers for the next album, and that's where Max Martin and Shellback come in. Lambert's hit "Whataya Want From Me" is a Martin/Shellback joint, and a quick conversation proved that these guys weren't just going to let the early days of Lambert's career be the end of their creative relationship. "We started talking about life, politics, fashion, everything under the sun," Lambert told Billboard. "They said, 'You seem different, Adam,' and I said, 'I feel a little different.' And I just asked them for their help."
Martin added: "When Adam came to us with a new opportunity to work together, we leapt at it and even suggested a deeper relationship where we would get the chance to really help define Adam's music over a whole album. We teamed up with the perfect partner in Warner Brothers and can't wait for everyone to hear the dynamic album. We are really proud of it and hope you like it as much as we do!"
On March 24, Adam gave a few more details about the LP in an interview with Hunger magazine. He explained: "Sonically it feels more contemporary than my previous material. It's definitely pop but not bubblegum. We have avoided camp and theatrics and have favored a darker, more grounded vibe, and at the same time, it will make you dance! Lyrically, it's very very personal, the album has an overall bittersweet feel to it. Vocally, I think it's my most tasteful, sophisticated work to date. With Max [Martin]'s guidance, I approached a lot of it with more restraint than in the past. Instead of being overly specific, most of the songs are more esoteric and so they're open to interpretation. I'm curious to hear about the individual meaning that people find in the songs dependent on their own situation "
THE MUSIC
First Single: "Ghost Town" (April 21 release date) Adam Lambert said that "Ghost Town" is "the perfect introduction to The Original High." "It establishes itself in a very earthy, vulnerable way," he said, "and transforms into a hypnotic dream full of surreal imagery and set to a minimal yet massive deep house beat." Check out a snippet he teased on Instagram below (the clip looks wonky but we swear it plays) and read more about the single right here.

TITLE AND RELEASE DATE
On January 29, on his 32nd birthday, Lambert gave his fans a small but awesome gift. The singer announced on Twitter that the album would be titled The Original High, with the first single "Ghost Town" out on April 21. As he previously revealed, the LP will follow later that summer. He hasn't explained the reason for the title, but fans are speculating the album is him making music that reminds him why he fought so hard for this career.

"Great view of Adam throughout!"
Haha, I thought I was going crazy and had turned into a very bad Glambert as I did not see Adam at all the first time that I watched the video. It is more like: glimpses of Adam throughout, if one pays zero attention to the fashion show and if one knows where to look in the audience!

Adam Lambert feels like the UK has adopted him
SNAP.PA – 6 hours ago SNAP.PA - The singer was delighted his set with Queen went down so well with British viewers. Adam Lambert has talked about how exciting it was to become such a superstar in the UK after his memorable New Year’s Eve performance. The singer had been performing with Queen on live dates around the country and parts of the show were watched by 12 million viewers when it aired on BBC One as part of their New Year’s Eve coverage. Adam, who is the new cover star of Attitude magazine, said: “It was after the New Year show, the next day as I was walking home – with shades on, because it was quite a night – I got stopped on the street like five times. I had a baseball cap on as well, so I was like, ‘Alright, that show did its job!’. “Being with Queen, on television for a British audience, bringing the New Year in with fireworks, it was just such an honour. I was just this American kid before, so I felt like an adopted child that day.” Adam’s full interview can be seen in this month’s Attitude magazine.

Do we have this? I don't remember seeing it. Gelly @14gelly 3m3 minutes ago RT @jamesedstrom: Times Square Gossip: ADAM LAMBERT'S ANTICIPATED ALBUM ORIGINAL HIGH www.timessquaregossip.com/2015/03/adam-lamberts-anticipated-album.html?spref=tw …
ADAM LAMBERT'S ANTICIPATED ALBUM ORIGINAL HIGH **** THE GLORIOUS CORNER
Story By: G.H. Harding Wednesday, March 25, 2015 Adam Lambert NEW GLAMBERT SINGLE --- Adam Lambert has just released an initial teaser of his upcoming single “Ghost Town” from his highly anticipated third album Original High, due out later this year. With much anticipation surrounding the single that’s due next month, the American Idol-star treated his fans – better known as Glamberts – to a sample of the whistle- laden house track. The 33-year-old took to Instagram to reveal the snippet, and the post has already received more than 20,000 views. Back in January , talking about the new album, Lambert made it clear that he’s gone in a new direction, and the sneak-peek of “Ghost Town” definitely confirms this. "I think people are going to be really surprised," the performer said at the time. "The album feels like a new era for me -- emotionally, lyrically, sonically. It feels fresh, it feels new. It's still me. It's still stuff that fans know and love but it's a new chapter 100 percent." Earlier this month, on his birthday, he announced the title of the new album as well as its producers. "Thank you for all the birthday love! Thrilled to announce the title of my upcoming album: The Original High. The album is executive produced by Max Martin and Shellback, with 1st single out in April." Lambert who first rose to stardom on American Idol, and has had major success in the with his previous two albums, For Your Entertainment (2009) and Trespassing (2012), has also toured with Queen twice, filling in for the band's iconic front man, the late- Freddie Mercury. Lambert had a good start to the year when Queen and Adam Lambert were watched by over 13 million people on BBC, I predict it’s about to get even better. Odd that the single name is the same as the best track on the new Madonna album Rebel Heart. Just saying!
