Yeah that's usually how it works but this isn't any old popstar. He *should* be treated like everyone else but unfortunately so far he hasn't and I dunno if the US will, especially in this political climate. I have no doubt that years from now people will look back at him as a trailblazer....but as it is with a lot of trailblazers, the times they exist in aren't always the best or easiest for them, even if they make it easier for future generations. I can see sexual songs working in Europe, but even if he has two massive hits I can't see US radio playing it unless all the conservative, sticks up their butts radio people all get a major personality overhauls. Or unless the song is sexual but doesn't OVERTLY have any sexual lyrics like FYE did. Which, going on the song description and early reviews, it does seem to be chock full of naughty lyrics. But whatever, I am not worried. I am sure he has lots of other potential radio friendly single choices. I am just not convinced radio here is ready to give any gay man the sexual leeway that straight stars have. They are afraid of sexual gay men. They want them either stereotypical hairdressers they can laugh at or non threatening ones who don't give off any hint that they actually have sex. The AMA's were only 3 years ago, and not a lot has truly changed since then. There has been some change, but I don't think enough to let ppl like him have radio carte blanche. YMMV. Sorry I sooo did not mean for this to turn into a manifesto LOL. Yeah, I don't know. If he had a couble of huge, big, smashes, I think radio will be open to play a sexy song by Adam. Only thing is though, even if it doesn't have explicit, in your face lyrics, I think Adam will sing it in a way that makes it sound explicit. He will, because he's a hunky sex god and he just can't help it. ;D Q3-I asked upthread if Trespassing Deluxe and Trespassing Regular will be added together for first week sales. Will they? Please. 8-) |

www.dailystar.co.uk/rehab/view/233660/Idol-Adam-s-a-dark-horse/IDOL ADAM’S A DARK HORSE  5th February 2012 By James Ingham AMERICAN Idol star Adam Lambert wants fans to Trespass into the dark depths of his life via his new album. But the US star warned his loyal followers to expect a few shocks along the way. The What Do You Want From Me singer told me: “There are songs on the album about me rebelling against society and saying ‘f*** you, I’ll do what I want’. “Cuckoo is about me acknowledging I’m insane and celebrating that fact. “And Shady is a sleazy, disco funk about cruising for sex, so it will be interesting to see how Middle America interprets that.” ... more Nice photo, but funny to see the other guy bending down for Adam. Noticed they didn't mention the name of the album in this article.. :  |

Just got home from dinner and reading everything It seems Q102 just played BTIKM so I guess it's from your text requests. What bothers me re: q102 is they haven't started to play him in their regular rotation yet. It's only the 5 PM countdown from our requests during the day and of course, the "Takeover" contest BUT damn, I'm hearing M every hr on the hr. Talk about overkill in playing. CATZMADAM. while readying for dinner, for the 1st time, I logged in to hear the live broadcast. I was impressed in his selection of course, I heard the acoustic OOL. Sounded good. so Tks. Next week I'll make an effort to log in again. YEAH so happy to see on Amazon #38 Keeping fingers crossed that he can push M over and be on top I think she's at 17 right now. Whoa how come she isn't #1 with all the incredible promo and push? Is this true!!!!!!!!!! If it is, this is the Saturday On Line show! This will account for tons of spins. It is syndicated!!! I stopped listening and have been watching the video! Can anyone confirm this?!!!!!!!!! I've been listening and so far the only new songs they have played have been M and Chris Brown - and only CB through a Facebook vote. I called and got through and requested BTIKM. We'll see if they play. |

I don't get this. She said Q102 played it, I thought SaturdayOnline was the syndicated spin. Is Z100/Q102 part of the SaturdayOnline spin on weekdays? |

ETA: The number of views for BTIKM = VEVO + YouTube + other places that it has been distributed. Well over 1 million views. See I don't think you can add the VEVO + YouTube Vevo Channel views together. For example - look at how close the numbers are on these songs for the Vevo and YouTube Vevo Channel versions Love the Way You Lie: youtube: 429,818,405 vevo: 430,169,444 Super Bass: youtube: 221,988,973 vevo: 221,903,337 Paradise (Coldplay): youtube: 65,363,403 vevo: 64,935,480 FYE: youtube: 13,119,365 vevo: 13,117,621 Yes, you can look at other uploaded versions of a song on youtube (like the AdamOfficial version of FYE or something) and add that to the total views, but I think if you add the Vevo views to the AdamLambertVevo Youtube views you are accidentally doubling your total. |
