Well, well, well....I'm not really sure what to think about @tkradio's thoughts. It's a good solid review, but it's not "OMG, it's amazing...," which, I think, is what we want to hear. Haven't other radio persons been a little more excited than he sounds?
Thinking long-term, one thing I think is a positive is his comparison to WWFM and that the new single is really well done and showcases his amazing voice. IMO, that sounds like a song that could be Grammy worthy; WWFM did very well on the charts & got a Grammy nom. Also, I'm remembering these tweets from November and to me, Toby's comments are in line w/what this guy said (sorry, I'm rambling a bit here):

For those Adam Lambert fans asking & without giving too much away I don't think Trespassing will b 1st single. It was 1 of 3 options....cont

... It was my personal preference out of the 3 but
think the label favoured a safer & more commercial option. #adamlambert #TRESPASSING
And no.
None of the 3 options were a ballad. I'd day 2 uptempo & 1 mid - uptempo. Now I'll shut up in case I've said 2 much #adamlambert
With regards to radio 1.
My guess is they think another song will be more 'radio friendly
& commercial' in hope of R1 - #adamlambert

Depending on how well this single does, maybe the second single can be a little edgier; maybe it will be "Trespassing" or "Shady." Just my 2 cents worth.
