OK, have had more time to think about this brilliant video, this time from a Jungian perspective. In Jungian psychology this dark Adam would be called the shadow or "shadow aspect". The shadow is almost the same as Freud's concept of the unconscious mind. The shadow personifies everything that the subject refuses to acknowledge about himself. Wow! Thanks for that perspective. |

LindaG23... that was a great observation about the "pulsing" Dark Adam side of the video! It's not only pulsing, but the edges are raggedy, too. The non-pulsing right-side edges are totally clear and crisp!! Thanks seoulmate, I am so happy to have made a unique contribution to this epic day.  |

Just got an email from Adam... Adam Lambert rca-marketing@lists-rca.sonymusicemail.com to me 6:42 PM (33 minutes ago)  WATCH THE "BETTER THAN I KNOW MYSELF" VIDEO NOW You saw that evocative teaser image from Adam's twitter, you took a look behind the scenes at the video shoot, and now it's time for the music video in its entirety. That's right, the "Better Than I Know Myself" video is available now on VEVO. Now Adam has given us the opportunity to trespass and see every side of him.  READ MORE » |

Adam, the master communicator. "I haven't confirmed" (but I am not denying) "a guest appearance" ( i.e. not a Freddie replacement, not a new band member, just a guest, y'all.) That is IF this is happening. Which, I am not confirming, but not denying. Oh, and BTW, here's MY new video.
Very smartly done. It seems the media thinks this collaboration would be great, as do most of the critics. As to the Queen and Freddie fans and purists, I would expect cries of protest. BECAUSE Adam not only can sing the songs in the key that Freddie did, with the power that Freddie had, and with the tons of stage presence that Freddie displayed, but can actually out-sing Freddie in terms of range, breath control, phrasing, sustaining, articulating, and tone. And, he might, just might outshine Freddie in stage presence.
It is one thing to welcome a new lead singer who, no matter how famous they may be on their own, is never going to measure up to what Freddie did. One can be gracious about that, and can enjoy the opportunity it gives the band members to continue to perform their iconic works. It is quite another thing to accept a new lead singer who could very possibly TOP Freddie in performance, who might depose 'the king.' One must expect the resistance to and criticism of Adam. So glad he has the balls not to be intimidated or cowered by that, and will seize the opportunity when it is right, and use it to create more breath-taking moments in music.
