Adam on set for “Ghost Town” music video
http://instagr.am/p/1RxNT7EDA5
More about the music video posted below.
We have some of the lyrics….
Certain…. from Adam's teasers:
And now I know my heart is a ghost town
Probably lyrics from Adam Lambert Tweets and IG’s
Died last night in my dreams
And now I know my heart is a ghost town
Time was thrown at the wind
It's all in my head
Voice in my head
All the machines had disconnected
Tonight Elvis is dead
More words/lyrics? from Sterling Fox:
“Died last night in my dreams
walking the streets
of some old ghost town.
I tried to believe in god and James Dean
but Hollywood sold out.
Saw all of the saints
lock up the gates;
I could not enter.
Walked into the flames,
called out your name,
but there was no answer.“
We have two pieces of the song….

Love Adam? Check Out the Teaser of Adam Lambert’s new single “Ghost Town”
Posted by: Web Team 04/10/2015
Ghost Town must be the new trend since Madonna just released her video for her new single titled “Ghosttown,” while Adam Lambert is getting ready to release his new single “Ghost Town.”
Although this is true, many of the Glamberts probably know which one I’m most excited for. Adam’s of course! The former American Idol contestant released a second preview of the track on his Instagram on April 6th.
Many radio stations who got to listen to the full song early are already loving it, exclaiming that it’s going to be the hit of the summer.
“Just heard New @adamlambert… You’re Gonna Be Obsessed.. #GhostTown #AdamLambert #MaxMartin,” said Melony Torres from D.C.’s Radio 107.3 on Twitter.
“And getting a little listen to some of @adamlambert’s new stuff… one word #WOW,” said Maxwell from Z100 New York on Twitter. He continued in another tweet saying, “The tempo is awesome, his vocals… as strong as ever, amazing pop record.”
“Today is seriously NUTS! We just heard the new @adamlambert and it’s crazy good! #GhostTown,” said Q102 Philly on Twitter.
The full song will officially be released April 21st, and will be the first single off Adam’s upcoming third album The Original High, that’s due later this year.
Let us know how excited YOU are for the new single and record!
You can listen to Adam’s first and second teaser for “Ghost Town” below.

Who Should Play Frank-N-Furter in Fox's Rocky Horror Reboot?
Damian Holbrook | April 10, 2015 9:00pm
Fire up the pitchfork ray gun and get ready to do the time warp. Again. Fox has just announced plans for a 40th anniversary remake of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, tentatively and so cleverly entitled The Rocky Horror Picture Show Event. Of course, there's the dreamer's guide to who could fill Tim Curry's famous fishnets as Dr. Frank-N-Furter, the sweet transvestite from Transylvania—Hugh Jackman, Jared Leto, Channing Tatum—but damn it Janet, they're just too big to do TV. These folks, however, have the right mix of vocal talents, star power and just a touch-a-touch-a-touch of the ballsiness that is needed to make a man (with blonde hair and a tan, natch), and rock those stilettos.
Neil Patrick Harris
Having already twisted up the sexual spectrum in Broadway's Cabaret and Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Frank-N-Furter would be a breeze. Plus, he pretty much takes every job thrown his way.
Michael C. Hall
The Dexter vet also killed it in Cabaret, and he has that macho-maniac thing that comes out in the second half of the Rocky Horror tale when a murderous Frank starts trying to send people back to his alien planet.
Chris Colfer
As much as we loved his Riff Raff when Glee did RHPS, let's face it, the kid was born for such a campy, colorful and pioneering role. And speaking of colorful and campy…
Tituss Burgess
Another vocal firework, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt's scene stealer clearly has Broadway in his blood (even if his Lion King dreams were dashed by Episode 5), he throws shade like a major league pitcher, and has eyes almost as big as Tim Curry's.
Norman Reedus
Just imagine it. Right?
Eddie Izzard
The British comic might not be a trained singer, but he and Curry have that same snarky attitude, he made a name for himself wearing pseudo-drag, and Dame Edna is probably too old.
Robin Lord Taylor
Networks love synergy and Gotham's Taylor has the ambiguous left-of-center sensibility that makes folks wonder what's up with his Penguin. Is he sweet? Sadistic? Misunderstood? Time for us to see what else this season's biggest revelation can do with his Northwestern theater training besides terrorize Batman's city.
Laverne Cox
Going back to the Glee thing, Amber Riley's Mercedes opened our eyes to the greatness that could come from a woman playing Frank-N-Furter. Orange is the New Black's Cox has opened our eyes to the greatness that comes from a person who refuses to be stuck in a gender they didn't choose. Put these two concepts together, and we have the perfect upgrade to the old Rocky gag.
Adam Lambert
How Fox hasn't done a musical filled with former American Idol standouts is as baffling to us as the fact that Lambert isn't a bigger star than he is. The pipes on this guy alone could score him this gig, but then you throw in his unapologetically theatrical style and it just seems like a custom fit, right?
Christian Borle
Don't mock us for wanting a Smash reunion, OK? In a perfect world, we'd get Jeremy Jordan as Brad to Megan Hilty's Janet, Krysta Rodriguez as a delicious Columbia, and Borle as the scientist who makes their lives miserable.
Zac Efron
High School Musical's Kenny Ortega is slated to direct the event, so why not recruit the guy who gave us Troy Bolton to really shake up his image? And this way, Charlie St. Cloud won't have to be the gayest thing he's ever done.

@adamlambert Hey Adam! Come to my #CHICBlockParty on @jimmykimmellive on April 14 if you're around. Love

What to do now to support Adam's new single
Things to do this week
1. Remember to have fun and get ready to enjoy the music!
2. If you do not stream music already, pick a streaming service you like and set up an account. Spotify is a good choice. You need to use an email address and/or Facebook account. I have an email/Facebook account I use for many Adam-related activities. It keeps this stuff isolated from any information about me and my life.
>> The following services are counted for BOTH the Billboard Singles and Album Chart: Amazon Prime Audio On-Demand, Beats Music Audio On-Demand, Google Play Audio On-Demand, Medianet Audio On-Demand, Medianet Audio Tethered, Rdio Audio On-Demand Plays (including non-DMCA radio), Rdio Audio Tethered Plays, Rhapsody Audio On-Demand Plays, Rhapsody Audio Tethered Plays, Slacker Audio On-Demand Plays, Spotify Audio On-Demand Plays (including non-DMCA radio), Xbox Music Audio On-Demand Plays (including non-DMCA radio) and Xbox Music Audio Tethered Plays.
>> The following services are ONLY tracked by Nielsen for the SINGLES chart: Amazon Prime Audio Radio Streaming, AOL Radio (powered by Slacker) Audio Radio Streaming, Milk (part of Slacker) Audio Radio Streaming, Rhapsody Audio Radio Streaming, Slacker Audio Radio Streaming, Vevo on YouTube Video On-Demand Plays, YouTube Video On-Demand Plays, VidZone Video On-Demand Plays and VidZone Video Video Streaming (non-demand).
Spotify On-Demand is a great choice -- counts for all the Billboard Charts: You need to download Spotify and install it, but I think it is worth the effort. This is my fav streaming site and it has the most influential playlists for pop music. Set up your account and follow artists with a lot of current hits (Mark Ronson would be a good choice) and follow Adam if you like him .
Tip: Streaming Adam’s music now will not help his new song chart when it is released.
3. Use social media. Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, forums, etc. to post about Adam’s new music, post positive comments on articles about him, share news about Adam. Be talkative!!
4. If you don't already know it, find your local Mainstream Top 40 station. Go to their website and decide how you can connect with them. (If you don’t know your station, search on Google: <city name> “Top 40 Radio”.)
You might want to:
• Download their app to your phone.
• Join their e-mail mailing list.
• Like the station on Facebook.
• Follow them on Twitter.
• Follow their important DJs on Twitter – usually this is the Morning Drive-Time Show and the Evening Drive-Time Show.
• Be nice!!! I believe in karma. Adam fans have a reputation for being passionate but very nice. Let’s keep that rep alive and well
Do this so you know when they have contests that involve Adam and for song battle info. When you learn about something cool, pass it on!
Unless Adam or his management ask fans to request his song, do not make any requests.
