Geezus! That might be the best SMGO Adam has done since the 2011 EMAS.

Just my opinion, so don't jump on me,okay.
I don't think Adam's voice is made for pop music. I have read quite a lot about how current pop music is designed and manufactured, and it is meant to be simple, imitative, with limited range and melodic complexity, and easy to sing along with. Adam is capable of dumbing down his voice to match the sounds of today's pop, but, as has been said before, it is like taking a Ferrari to the Piggly Wiggly store behind an old lady driving her Ford Pinto. Or like a thoroughbred racehorse giving pony rides at the carnival. Having a Ferrari's power inside his body, it would be both frustrating and boring not to use it, no matter how big a hit the song might become.
Adam may WANT to be a pop singer, but that is not what his voice is naturally suited for. Queen has some of the most difficult and complex songs in the rock world, and Adam can sing any/all of them flawlessly. Now that he has them comfortably sitting in his body, he may even be starting to feel restless, wanting a greater vocal challenge. The truth is that Adam's voice is much more suited for classical music: opera, operetta, art song, oratorios and the like. That music is written for a voice like Adam's. Pop is not. And, if Adam finds a pop composer who writes for his voice, it will probably not appeal to the mass of pop consumers.
Of course, there are some discerning, wise listeners like us who appreciate the sound, power, clarity, purity, and technique of Adam's voice, no matter what he is singing. He makes everything sound better. Adam can be successful singing many different styles. But a superstar singing today's pop and top 40? I don't see it happening.
IMHO. YMMV.

Don't know if we already have this article from today. www.gaystarnews.com/article/adam-lambert-dating/#gs.DdVd5ywAdam Lambert on dating and why he's been single for 5 years He furthermore said: ‘I’m a multi-dater for now. My inner romantic always hopes that I could meet someone and it would grow into something significant and monogamous.’Often times you meet that person when you are not even looking. Adam is a special man and I hope he will find that special person one day. Yes to everything cassie said about Adam's voice and music.

I realize that Q&A wanted to bring some new songs to the setlist and mix it up a bit, but I really miss One Vision. I thought it was a grand opening. It was!
I loved One Vision. But I love Tear it up as well. It's an amazing opening - and Adam makes it perfect!
