We’re abstaining from scoring him. Mainly because his fans are frightening on Twitter.
“What do you mean, you’re “surprised” to find out he’s such a good judge, @tomandlorenzo? Adam Lambert is a wonderful human being and performer who blahblahblah140charactersBLAH!”
“@tomandlorenzo, why aren’t you commenting on @adamlambert??!?!?!?”
“You better not say anything mean about @adamlambert, @tomandlorenzo! I LOVE him and he might fuck me someday!!!!!!”
Oh, fine. Score 7/10. A little shaking up of the status quo would have been nice to see.

Just a WACKY thought --- at the very end of the album production process two new collaborators were added -- Rico Love and Pharrel Williams. Neither have any connection to Adam but they are both connected to the CEO Sony Music Entertainment and to the CEO of RCA.
Doug Morris, the new head of Sony Music Entertainment was formerly head of Universal Music Group. His stated goal is to reinvigorate A&R at Sony. He has relationships with many UMG artists and producers -- including both Rico and Pharrel.
Peter Edge the new CEO of RCA Records was formerly EVP J Records -- where Pittbull is signed and Pittbull worked with Rico Love. (Another Adam collaborate is singed to J Records -- BC Jean).
Adam said that there were a couple of songs that he did not write.
Rico Love had never heard Adam sing before and he tweeted that he wrote the song.
Pharrell seems like it was a recording session vs. a co-write.
RCA A&R often gives their artists a song or two to record at the end of the album process -- and these are often selected as lead single.
My conclusion is the these two songs MAY have come from RCA A&R.
(OK lots of assumptions -- but it does fit the info we know.)
ETA: Pharrell track may be a co-write but still think the connection came thru RCA A&R.

Q3 - it always amazes me how you know all these names, their positions and their movement in the industry... is all so "alien" to me ;D, appreciate your and everyone's else shared knowledge! I just checked the view count on Rico Love's twitvid - 10,830 - www.twitvid.com/QKOD1

I thought you guys might enjoy this - So You Think You Can Dance is in Norfolk VA tonight (I'm going with supardu and rjackspf in Northern VA tomorrow night). Here's a great writeup that was on the first page of my local paper's Ticket section - focusing on Sasha! The most important sentence (of course!) "A native of Bakersfield, Calif., Sasha has toured with Adam Lambert." Link: www.dailypress.com/entertainment/arts/dp-fea-sytycd-20110922,0,1568367.story

My conclusion is the these two songs MAY have come from RCA A&R. (OK lots of assumptions -- but it does fit the info we know.) I'm with you for most of that Q3, but a few things ... Adam specifically say he WROTE with Pharrell during the Twitter party, then he said he was recording with him last night. Two different occasions, which would imply to me that they did collaborate/co-write and are now going back to record. I didn't take Rico's tweets as mean he's never heard him sing, but could be that he's never heard him sing live or be put through his vocal paces as he might have been in the studio. It's possible he's heard him on Idol or WWFM in passing, etc. Speaking of, this is a really cool assessment he gives at ASCAP forum about classical music training.

nica575 now that you're on line I have a confession to make.The other day you asked about a necklace that Adam wore in a photo from the UK promo tour and I couldn't remember it. Well the same night I went to bed and I saw the poster I had framed, from the Acoustic Live album and there was the necklace in front of me. And then I remembered that he wore it during the Lee Cherry photoshoot in that video from ET behind the scenes photoshoot ( if there is any excuse, when I look at that picture I don't notice the necklaces )
