Re : Adam responding immediately to Q1O2. I'm very happy that Adam is into it and he was watching closely. But I also have to say this. I finally decided to download tweetdeck and now I have much more tabs open lol. In one of the columns on tweetdeck I placed search for @adamlambert. I'm not always watching at his feed but yesterday I did. Usually there a lot of things on his feed. From hilarious, to love, to pics, to insults, everything. Yesterday it was really overwhelming to see that, almost ALL of his feed was people promoting the song, the album, requests to radio stations, tweets to various important sites, everything in every possible way. Even if he was just lurking for a second or he lurked for much more than a sec (which I'm almost sure he did) I think he would be very proud and happy for all of us.

About time - I've been requesting them to play it since it released... so yay. On the downside now I have to listen to top 40 radio... so sigh.

Sauli's new blog www.adamtopia.com/index.cgi?action=gotopost&board=sauli&thread=631&post=145640Healthy Lifestyle Thanks again guys, and you are welcome - re messages in yesterday's thread. Consider this translation thing a way of life to us now LOL. It's been almost a year now for me - I started the transcripting thing in February last year, Riinukka did the Roadshow translations till the end of May. All those are also in SC now with Riinukka's permission, edited a bit by me.

I was getting dressed this morning and thought of Shoshanna Stone (as one does when one gets dressed). Last night I thought she just took a random rumor and ran with it, and I couldn't understand why. Because if it isn't true - what's the use? And if it is true - why did she say it's just a rumor? But this morning I thought - what if she picked on this one rumor because she wanted to raise the interest not of Adam's fans, but of Robbie Williams' fans, and to catch their attention, thus exposing new people to Adam's name? So! My conclusion is to take back the "not very clever" remark. Really I shouldn't judge people whose profession I know absolutely nothing about. (I still don't like her though )

I have been checking some more playlists on January 3-4, 2012 going back in time about 24h. The stations I have picked are national and can be listened almost everywhere in Finland. This info is mostly of interest to the Finns, other glamberts might enjoy just knowing that BTIKM has air time already on five big radio stations (one or two might take it on later but I don't see much more coming). Radio Nova played FYE twice and WWFM twice. They even have presentations/profiles of artists including Adam, but I did not find any mention of BTIKM. Their playlist has all the big american names (of course lots of Finnish artists, too) and BTIKM would suit their profile just fine. Maybe someone should contact them... www.radionova.fi/musiikki/soittolista/YleX ylex.yle.fi/BTIKM did not appear on their most wanted list until this week but is listed now at 8th place (all others in top10 are Finnish artists). Played 4 times this week, the latest time being yesterday evening. Adam's profile info tells me that also WWFM is in their repertoire with 34 plays (total I assume), latest on Dec 30. List of most played songs last month shows that the top10 included M83, Korn, LMFAO and Lady Gaga, others were Finnish artists. There is also a list of tracks with most comments, BTIKM is 5th and the only foreign artist on that list, so fans have been submitting their point of view nicely. OT newsflash: Hollywood Hills by Sunrise Avenue (which is a Finnish band) was the most played song in German radio stations in 2011 with about 50.000 plays (more than Adele or Bruno Mars), source in german www.emimusic.de/sunriseavenue/news/4196X3M yle.fi/extrem/index.phpThey have Aftermath, WWFM, IIHY and BTIKM on their playlist. BTIKM played twice yesterday (and not in the middle of the night as some stations that checked earlier). X3M broadcasts in swedish (also an official language here), so playlist(s) = låtlist(or) (in Finnish: soittolista(t)). No info of total plays. Naturally SuomiPOP plays only Finnish music. Iskelmä plays very little foreign music but their weekends and nights might have some possibilities for acoustic some or some beautiful ballad by Adam - well, at least profilewise, but no Lambert in their playlist at the moment. Lots of local stations but I won't go on checking them, many of them play all kinds of pop and rock and have often programmes where you can phone and ask for your favourite, so some random chances to get BTIKM played. All in all, BTIKM is getting radio exposure in Finland and that should help in promoting the album which I think is the most important thing.

I'm catching up reading last nights thread. These were some of Shoshanna's tweets from after the Sunday Times piece before Christmas. Katycake, I'm with you, Shoshanna rubs me the wrong way. We'll have to wait and see if She does a better job of promoting Adam this time then with the FYE era. Hopefully Adam gets UK radio support this time. OMG yay for spins!!! I have such a good feeling about this song on radio!! I have a question for people who know music-y things. Last time Adam did EU/UK promo, he just had Monte and LP with him, right? I'm thinking when he went around to various stations and did mini acoustic sessions. If Adam is slated to go to UK in February, then that's too soon to do any songs other than BTIKM, and I can't see him doing old songs, right? So if he has any little performance thingies and sings BTIKM, does he only need keyboard and drums? I can't hear any guitar in the song, so I'm just trying to figure out how this might work. Does it even make sense to go to the UK in February before Trespassing is out? Why take the band to sing only 1 song, BTIKM? Is there another reason to go to the UK in February? @baking4fun @shoshannastone isn't he going back to the UK in Jan? Why is it released so much later in the UK? Curious
in reply to @shoshannastone @baking4fun single release cycle is opposite way round 2 the US. We service 2 radio, do promo then release the single at the end of the cycle 19 Dec
@shoshannastone @baking4fun oh, and he won't be here until Feb, not Jan. UK label decide release dates to give the best chance at radio. 19 Dec
@vickstertilling @shoshannastone Why oh why do they do this? Why not maximise and release worldwide.... #betterthanIknowmyself #ridiculousPR 19 Dec
in reply to @shoshannastone @vickstertilling release dates are nothing to do with PR. That's his media profile.... 19 Dec
@vickstertilling @shoshannastone Thanks for the reply. It's just so frustrating when he was in the Times yesterday and then nothing till March! x 19 Dec
in reply to @shoshannastone @vickstertilling there won't be nothing until March in any way! 19 Dec

So! My conclusion is to take back the "not very clever" remark. Really I shouldn't judge people whose profession I know absolutely nothing about. (I still don't like her though ) EXACTLY katycake . And not only that. Not only to raise the interest of Robbie's fans. Probably to catch the attention of Robbie himself. Robbie has said that he likes Adam. She included in one of her tweets Robbie's official twitter account. She is smart. shoshannastone shoshanna stone @ @argeneau @robbiewilliams @adamlambert Yep! The man has taste
Maybe even if nothing is true, a collaboration COULD happen. I think Robbie doesn't run his twitter account but those who do, probably will tell him something. So there is always a chance.Twitter has changed so many things in PR. Even Nile's collab started from some tweets. Who knew by the time that Sam and Adam tweeted to Nile that this would happen you know ?
