Sunflower_AT Sun Flower The Winners and Losers of 'American Idol': Adam Lambert | Rolling Stone Culture | Photos rollingstone.com/culture/photos… via @rollingstone 1 minute ago www.rollingstone.com/culture/photos/the-american-idol-rollercoaster-20100701/adam-lambert-46169834Adam Lambert Who? The attention-getting neo-glam rocker ( and master of the high notes) who placed second in Season Eight. Peak: Returning to Idol to deliver straitlaced, on-point criticism as the best mentor of Season Nine. I guess I missed Tommy's S&M-inspired costume at the AMAs  Also, call me crazy here, but I KIND OF think a Grammy nomination and a sold-out headlining world tour MIGHT rate a little higher on the "Career High" category then mentoring AI9 (though he killed that too). In all, not bad. On next page, they say Gokey is "in the fast lane." Okay ... I was gonna say that maybe they were referring to highs and lows directly related to the Idol show itself...and then I read his low being the AMA clusterfuck soo....theory out the window. LOL. Uhhh, yeah I dunno why they think his Idol mentoring is his career high but wuteva. Danny Gokey on the otherhand has no high because it's IMPOSSIBLE to even fathom the amazing heights his amazing career has reached!!!111!!11 For Christ's sake he had an endorsement deal with Wisconsin Optical!! THE WISCONSIN OPTICAL!!! Has Adam ever had an endorsement deal with a chain retailer of eyewear? Huh? The answer is NO my friends. NO. hatergonnahate.gif |

Yeah, really crazy that Rolling Stone didn't mention the grammy nomination as Adam's peak. I don't get that! :   Maybe the "reporter" is more than a little lazy... |

ETA: When was this piece published? They are talking about Cook releasing an upcoming album in June of 2001 |

Thanks for this. He was good, but I think Adam could mop the floor with him vocally. He kept things very low and I'm very used to the Carl Anderson version (because I've listened to it 927,829 times), who sings it with Adam's type of dynamism and power. I agree 100%. I was expecting something totally different after seeing the glowing reviews. If he is "scary good", I think Adam would be bone-chillingly, spine tinglingly, petrifyingly good. I kind of liked the staging/modern vibe, but the singing was pretty ordinary. It's all Adam's fault! What we once considered really good or excellent is now just mediocre. It's something we'll just have to suffer through... it would/will be easier with new Adam music! |
