Oh this album is soooooooooooooooooo good. It is like listening to a classic album from the 70's in a good way -- when albums had integrity and worked as a whole -- and yet had variety of themes and styles.
I have no idea how that RS reviewer could give this album 3 stars. None. I thought it might be anti-pop/anti-Max Martin/Shellback production but I now think she must have not really "heard" it. All I know if this album is one of the best albums released in the past year and I predict TOH will be on RS best albums of 2015 list.

ETA: Just listened to "Rumors" for the second time. WOW just wow. That song better be a single this Fall. It is just a perfect pop song for 2015. And they sound so good together. Has anyone isolated Rumors yet from the Amazon album-streaming thing? Yes, scroll down through this tumblr and I think all the songs are there. Rumors is for sure. Sorry, not sure how to link directly to song. adamlambertnation.tumblr.com/

I think the fans who insisted it was "moo" right from first listen will never hear "yeah". Linda's son was not told beforehand to listen for the "moo" and he never heard it. Now Adam is stuck with the "moo". Oh well...could be worse I guess... It doesn't sound like "Moo" to me, but it DOES sound like a cow....cows don't really go "Mooooo", they kinda go "MEEEEEAAAAA" and that's what it sounds like....Does anyone remember those cylinder toys from way back when - you turned them upside down and then right side up and they made the sound I hear on the track. The toys had pictures of cows. .....sorry Adam but it remains a cow sound to me. (and I've grown really fond of it! lol)

About the wonderful song Another Lonely Night. this is my favorite song on the album for many reasons. I love the uptempo with the sad lyrics. I love the many layers and textures of Adam's voice and all the electronic sounds as well. It is a very rich song for me. I relate as I have used singing many times to cope with deep hurt or anger. I get the vacuum out and sing out loud whatever I am dealing with. It sure isn't pretty like Adam singing, but it helps me move out of the mood in a better place than collapsing on a bed sobbing, but sometimes that has happened also. All that to just explain how I relate to the song and also to bring myself out here more. Have purposely kept low profile as I have seen and experienced how easily emotions and intent can be misinterpreted online. I feel very strongly about this moo-gate. I don't hear the moo, have not ever heard a hint of moo. But despite scrolling through much of the jokes here and on Twitter, I now think of the moo when I hear my favorite song. It's ok, I can deal with that. Now Adam has been asked about a moo 2 or three times. Each time he clearly said it is not a moo, it is an electronic distortion of yeah. I got a very clear message from the Instagram vid today about the moo. Adam said in his very nice polite way, no moo. Get over the moo. I cannot see anything funny about Adam performing this song live and hearing his fans shouting out moo. Makes me shudder. I do see and I do know that there is nothing but love here for Adam, and I understand how individuals are hearing a moo type sound, especially if EDM is not music you are familiar with. I strongly feel that the moo is not humorous to Adam and I hope that people will respect that and get over the moo. YMMV and I respect every persons feelings. my larger font and bolding ^ You just said so perfectly what I have been feeling. And I don't like the thought of Adam being ridiculed on stage. If that happens, maybe he will just not sing the song. That would be our loss.

US Digital Song sales for "Ghost Town" last week -- does not include streaming, just digital downloads. LAMBERT*ADAM GHOST TOWN 9,713 +16% 68,698 (total sales) *** ONE WEEK TO TOH RELEASE -- so I am watching the album sales charts like a redtail hawk!!
Here is this weeks HDD Rumor Mill forecast -- hitsdailydouble.com/news&id=296362 Wednesday, June 10, 2015 MUSINGS ON THE WEEK'S NEW RELEASESMuse, OMAM, Stones, Horses Now Roll Out Warner Bros.' Muse will likely take the #1 spot on both the HITS Album Sales and SPS (Sales Plus Streaming) charts next week. Here are your top debuts. Muse (Warner Bros.) 70-75k sales, 75-80k SPS
Of Monsters and Men (Republic) 55-60k, 60-65k Rolling Stones: Sticky Fingers Deluxe (UMe) 28-32k, 30-35k A Thousand Horses (Republic Nashville) 18-21k, 20-23k Now Country 8 (NOW) 17-20k You can read all about the schmancy new Stones reissue here. The Nashville breakout A Thousand Horses, meanwhile, who recently topped the Mediabase Country radio chart, were featured in our New & Developing Artists spread a few months back. **** Hard to get a feel for what TOH needs to do next week to be #1 but something > 65K seems like it might do it. Could even take less. Nate Ruess's album is not that high on the presale charts. On Amazon -- when you go to Nate's CD, you get this for "frequently bought together": This item: Grand Romantic ~ Nate Ruess Audio CD $9.99 The Original High (Deluxe)(Explicit) ~ Adam Lambert Audio CD $13.99 But for Adam, you get this -- exactly why RCA released that Greatest Hits album. This item: The Original High (Deluxe)(Explicit) ~ Adam Lambert Audio CD $13.99 Playlist: The Very Best of Adam Lambert ~ Adam Lambert Audio CD $6.99 Mika's new album is listed down below but no sign of Nate. This makes me very happy!!! *** Shazam numbers: Ghost Town (in the US) lw 50 TW 41 +9 ADAM LAMBERT GHOST TOWN

IMO, Adam would say "It ain't that deep". Don't think Robert Palmer cared that people thought it was "Might as well face it, you're a dick with a glove"..... or that Nirvana worried about the misheard, "Here we are now in containers". In fact there is an entire site dedicated to misheard lyrics called 'Kiss This Guy' and I don't think the Hendrix family is too bent out of shape about that. LOL ....YMMV of course.

Finally back for a little while. Adam really looked good in that jacket in today's pics! And that last album pic...DAY-UM!! I had my son listen to all three bonus tracks and he liked Shame the best but thought they were all good. I need to listen to them some more to decide which I like the best. I like the different sounds of each of them so...IDK! I think TOH should be the next single. It is just so good and you can't help but move listening to it. I think it will work really well on radio. JMHO That Adam instagram saying "Get over the Moo!" cracked my up. He did it with fun facial expressions and I thought it was cute. I laugh each time I watch it. I was at Target today and went by their music section where they have the stand with pics of the coming new releases on the sides. Well Adam wasn't on it...Damn.....Hillary Duff?....seriously? And that girl wanted to move all of Adam's CD's from the shelf and put HD one's there? *&^%%&#! Could someone please post the link where I can listen to the whole album so I can bookmark it? Thanks. I can't find it in my Bookmarks. ETA:
GT official video playing. Spotify GT on reply. Rdio GT on reply. Playing the 3 bonus track on my computer as my background music.

Here is what Billboard measures for the Billboard 200 (US Album Chart):
"For sales and streaming, we use a Monday-to-Sunday cycle. The reports we get for sales and streaming cut off end-of-day on Sunday."
So for "The Original High" album the streaming clock starts at 12:00AM Monday and ends at 11:59:99PM Sunday US Eastern Time (New York).
*****
Do you know if the entire album will be available on Spotify at 12:00 a.m. Monday, or if we should just make a playlist of all the individual songs from the album that are available at the time? And we can stream the Amazon album until they turn it off.
Are there any "projections" for TOH, or for NR's album? Or Hillary Duff, since she was mentioned today.
