question: How do I get a video to be seen by someone in Germany? I sent Gorgeous the link to the touching gay wedding video where The Edge of Glory was used as a soundtrack and it's not visible in his country. Is it only YouTube that has these restrictions? I'm not sure if it's only YT that has these restrictions, but it has to do with the copyrights and such. Anyway, you can bypass these by using a site that hides your IP address from the video provider. One such site is hidemyass.com. It changes the user's original IP address to one that points to the US, and thus enables the video. Ask him to try it. You just go to the site and write the address of the webpage you want to see (for example the YT page address) to the field on the page. The video should be visible then. This looks perfect. I will send it to him immediately. He struggled with coming out and this video should bring a smile to his face. I've mentioned this b4, but it bears repeating. "Gorgeous" says that Adam Lambert helped him through a rough patch. He has even written a letter to Adam. Adam has mentioned things like this and "Gorgeous" is living proof that Adam is a role model to some.

Yep, love no regrets Adam. Oh I know he is brave and I certainly don't think he should regret anything. I just don't know why he acknowledged it. He obviously did and I am sure he had good reason, I just can't figure out what that would be. LOL. A little mystery never hurt anyone I don't get the confusion. Adam and J. Scott created the song together, for better or for worse. J. Scott waited two years and did not release out of deference to Adam. Now he wants to release it and he was taking a beating from Adam's fans and being cast as an opportunist and a villain. If Adam let the guy twist in the wind for something Adam bears no animosity about, wouldn't he be acting rather callous? Consider if the roles were reversed and Adam wasn't the one who made it, but was still the creative, talented, courageous man he is now, just trying to get his break. Would he be a jerk for trying to release a song he invested a certain amount of time and money on regardless if his collaborator had moved onto other things? If that collaborator tried to disavow any knowledge of it and his fans were attacking Adam because he is doing whatever he can to get his talent out there, would that be fair? He acknowledged it because it's part of his history and apparently he's not ashamed of it, even if it's not representative of what he's doing now.

Don't have time to catch up right now as I am headed out to a free movie on the Hudson River but I realize I have mistaken this current song with the original bastard album.

Suzie Fierce, I didn't get a chance to read your long response but I'm sure I don't agree with it.

I suspect Adam's management is not going to be too happy with his tweet.

Soooooo, I wanted to share something that I think is pretty funny. Whenever I hear this song, I think about when the GB first made itself known to the masses. When I was a teenager, we would sing Oh Ho Ho, It's MY DICK. Tell me it doesn't sound like that. You don't have to listen to the whole corny song - just the beginning. Made me chuckle.

It's just like year, before his debut album coming out. This is only his word that Adam will get 50%. For me the problem is what's the proof that Adam will get 50% and Adam stays quite about this. I don't feel like I need the details of any of Adam's past business dealings in order to take a cue from him. His tweet said everything I need to know, a certain % does not make it more right or wrong- he signed what he signed, that's none of my business. He said "check it out" so that should be that. I don't feel like this is even the same ballpark as Fake One- not even close. Adam was complicit in this whole endeavor. This song, whether we love it or not, represents a piece of Adam history which he was participating in of his own free will. I don't understand why I get the feeling that there is a small segment of fans who would like to see it expunged from the record entirely (so to speak). Or I misunderstood, which is always a possibility. Yes.. he said to check it out... but I still don't like it
