lulu, I love the way you applied deductive reasoning here! It made me smile, this morning. Sounds like a good scenario to me! Can't wait to hear it in a few weeks. People on twitter last night were talking about this when @u_tern tweeted about Adam listening to the remixes and I woke up to Adam & Oliver joking with each other. Bonnie McKee I think has a few #1 songs, so I would think this is promising for Adam's song. I'm probably jumping to all sorts of conclusions.

@u_TERNU-Tern/Vaughn Oliver Playing tracks for Adam Lambert right now, he's digging our Chromeo remix! U-Tern/Vaughn Oliver @u_TERN Vancouver DJ/Producer living in Los Angeles. soundcloud.com/u-ternAdam just started following
U_TERN U-Tern/Vaughn Oliver DJ/Producer living in Los Angeles. ETA And he just started following Adam. Oliver Goldstein is one of the producers at Pulse Recording. U-Tern is a DJ and producer and is 1/2 of OLIVER with Oligee. Pulse Recording Studio's is where Adam worked with Bonnie McKee on a song earlier this year. I wonder if they are remixing one of Adam's songs. The song must be finished in order to remix it I would think. Both Lady Gaga & Katy Perry had remixes of their singles available for their deluxe version of their albums. If Adam is working at the Pulse Recording studio's and remixing the song He wrote with Bonnie McKee is that a hint that the Bonnie McKee song the first single or one of the singles. You wouldn't go to the trouble and spend the money to remix an album cut. But what are these madea films he is talking about?

So about this New 'Winged Ankh' Pendant that Tim designed and you talked about it yesterday, is it a random design? Did he design it for someone? I couldn't figure out and my pc at work is soooo slow today, I can't search Tim's site. Adam's Ankh ring was one of the first jewelrey of his that I noticed on AI8 and I thought it was, and still is, SO perfect!! I simply adore that ring! At that time I even did a little search and I found exactly the same as Adam's, it was not very expensive, lol ,I wanted to buy one but something serious happened at the time and I forgot all about buying it. Now I'm really thinking about bying that ring again. I thought of Adam's Ankh ring and the "TOMT" performance the moment I saw that design, so I was so excited and posted it, not thinking about whether that's for Adam or someone else. ;D

For those of you who missed cassie's post yesterday: Angelina Kalahari has done an excellent in-depth programme on Adam's "Outlaws of Love", which can be heard at her Sound Bath site: soundbath.wordpress.com/2011/09/15/adam-lambert%E2%80%99s-%E2%80%9Coutlaws-of-love%E2%80%9D/Here's what cassie said about the program, and she and junie moon are guests that join Angelina in discussing the song: cassie: I just finished listening to Angelina's new program on Outlaws of Love. She has done an exceptional job. This is a two-hour long, in-depth examination of the song and performance. Angelina starts by briefly talking about being at the concert and hearing it live. Then, she does an analysis in detail of how he sings the song and infuses it with emotion. She points out specific techniques and turns that most people don't consciously notice (if not highly trained as singers), but which add so much to the interpretation. Her first guest is Elizabeth.... sorry, don't remember the last name. She is an academically trained, expert musician who talks about how the song is structured musically. To be honest, I am not sure how accessible her information is if you don't have a music theory background. I would be interested in hearing what others think. But, for me, it was fascinating!!! The song works, musically in so many ways. The type of harmonies and scales it incorporates, the arrangement of the guitar accompaniment which is almost like a duet, the harkening back to the musical troubadours of Europe, the way the melody moves down when you think it would move up, .... oh, well, you just have to listen for yourself. That simple little song works so well because it is very well structured, musically. Do I think that Adam intentionally and consciously said, "Let's keep this in the minor pentatonic scale" or "Let's start each subsequent section of the song up a minor third from the previous"? No, of course not. He crafted the song to reflect his experience and his emotions, and found what "sounded right". Still, I believe it sounded right to him because of its fit, musically. Because of all the things Elizabeth discerns in it. Next, juniemoon reads her blog. Kudos, junie! A beautiful piece of writing. So glad that you participated. I love your image of it being a "cathedral" song. After that, Angelina and I chat about my initial reaction to the song, her initial reaction to the song, and why we think it had such an impact on us and others. We talk about how Adam has grown as a singer and an artist, and touch on one of our favorite "hot" topics: that Adam's voice IS his instrument. One honed over years of hard work and practice. Finally, Phillipa, who has a PhD in English and who did such a great job talking about the lyrics to Broken Open and Aftermath, reads the lyrics and discusses how and why they are, at once, very short and simple, and at the same time, profound and effective because of the simplicity. She talks about how Adam uses rhyme and chooses the lyrics based not only on meaning, but on the sound of the words together. Angelina and Phillipa talk about the way Adam delivers the bitter lyrics tenderly and with grace, "refusing to meet hatred with hatred." Here again, I am not saying that Adam intentionally and consciously says, "Let's repeatedly use this vowel sound in subsequent words on this phrase" or "If I choose the word 'rot' instead of 'burn' it will imply the hopelessness of redemption." I imagine his process is much more organic and spontaneous. He likes the way something sounds or feels. But, again, it is effective because it hits the mark in terms of structure and poetry. This is not a program that you click on and have in the background while you do the dishes or fix dinner. It is dense with information and analysis. But, that simple little song is very complex vocally, musically and lyrically. and, IMO, deserves examination at this level. It was a treat to listen and reflect on all the facets that can be experienced in the song. Isn't that what makes something a "work of art?" So, if you want to dive into the deep end for a bit, carve out two hours of your time to ponder OOL with Angelina and her guests. soundbath.wordpress.com/2011/09/1....-love%E2%80%9D/ Read more: atop.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=daily&action=display&thread=487&page=12#ixzz1Y7JNAC00

Before I had ever heard of Tyler Perry or Medea, I was staying with a friend in Key West who had been a fan of him and his stage plays for years. She brought out the VHS tapes of those plays and we watched them for hours, laughing enough to keep her neighbor awake, I am sure. I’m not always into silliness (THE HANGOVER, etc) in movies, but the dialogue in his Medea plays was priceless. I am still a fan of Perry’s, but nothing compares to his early works that were very well known in the African-American community. He is now a billionaire and attained most of his success in spite of the powers that be in Hollywood as opposed to because of them. Awkwardly worded, but you get my drift.
