Adam Lambert: "I am in search of happiness"He has established itself by polarizing "American Idol" candidates for singers at the Queen outstanding tour. Adam Lambert (33) sings with unmistakable voice in en masse heart. To promote his new album "The Original High", he made a trip to Vienna and "Heute.at" has talked with him.
You are on promotional tour! Do you even know yet what city you are currently?
I am in Vienna! (laughs) I love Vienna and have the shows that I've played also always loved here.
Have you ever tasted a steak?
Yes of course. But it's not really my thing. I find it too salty and too greasy. Maybe me a healthier version would taste better. With less salt and less fat ... ... (laughs)
Your single "Ghost Town" makes it up and down. What's the story behind the song?
I think this is the perfect song to start the album, so that's the first single. I mean to say: 'Look here! At this Punk I'm just '. I question everything in life, I do not know what I want to feel a bit empty, a bit stunned. But then begins the beat and I think: 'Okay, but I still can dance'.
It was clear to you that this is the first single?
When we were done with the song was immediately clear that this will be the first single. It is so special! I like the intro so much because it starts only with guitar and vocals. I show people who I am and allow you to listen to my deepest feelings
How would you describe the album?
The idea behind the album is actually that nothing is black and white in life easy. As are all good and bad feelings and it is okay if both exist. It is also about learning and growth on the other one.
"The Original High" is actually a search for happiness and joy. Then seek what you want. Each song searches in a certain way then. It is a journey and the funny thing is that you never actually find an answer. There are on the whole album no finish line at which one thinks: 'Okay, I've got it all now'.
What does this mean for you as happiness and joy? What makes you happy?
I have the luck itself is not found. Perhaps happiness is to eat a schnitzel in Vienna. (laughs) I myself am still looking. That's part of growing up. The exciting thing is to try to find it.
Which song are you looking forward at the concerts?
Track number 5 "There I Said It" is the big ballad on the album. That's a big vocal moment and the song that challenges me most. He has a big statement and the special thing about him is, if one sounds the text can be interpreted in each its own story. It can go for example to a love story, very simple, but there's much more. It may go to a relationship with all sorts. With himself, with the world, with habits we all have ...
Do you listen privately to your own songs?
I even hear my own songs during recording and of course I sing it like on stage, but in private I do not hear them. Since I like to listen to house music. For example, Deep House with cool vocals.
What is the relationship with your fans?
My fans are so great. They are loyal and so passionate! They travel to different countries to meet me! I had fans who were in the US to almost every show since Queen. That's crazy! I really love them very much. What I find really cool is that the age range of my fans is so great. It's great to have a connection to so many generations.
How have you changed since your first and your current album?
A lot has changed. Although I am still the same person, but I'm simply become adult. I learned a lot about myself and about the music industry, because that can be very tricky. I think I've developed myself as an artist. I've learned something and that is that you just because you can do something, it does not even have to do.
Will you still often referred to as a casting-Star?
I am proud of my time in "American Idol" and a lot of people know me by. It's still a part of me, with great memories. But I think I've now proved that I'm an independent artist.
5.4 million sold records speak for themselves: Adam Lambert is one of the big new megastars on pop heaven. In the season 2014/2015 the smart young Americans also shone as a singer on the large-scale queen tour.
"The Original High" was created in collaboration with Max Martin and Shellback (P! Nk, Katy Perry, Maroon 5, Taylor Swift, Sean Paul and others) and recorded in Stockholm and Los Angeles. The first single "Ghost Town" already topped the Billboard 140 charts trending after the singer presented the song for the first time in public.
"When you listen to the lyrics, the song is relatively dark," said Adam Lambert describes the new single "I used a lot of show and thereby worn extravagant clothes -. Springs and lots of glitter - and I have thus had a good time as if every day is Halloween, but in the past five years I have outgrown it. "
The already heaped with prices and multi-platinum star is known for his incomparable vocal range and playing sold-out concerts around the world - both as a solo artist and as the frontman of the legendary rock band Queen.
