Below is a link to the BB interview with talked about QAL reference... Here are a couple excerpts.. "... For most of his career, Adam Lambert has been playing characters. Whether in his musical theater roots, his touring role as the frontman of Queen or even on American Idol, the 42-year-old singer says much of his career has been about performance." This from Adam: "I’ve experimented with so many different sorts of directions and genres and sounds over the years. I’ve done a lot and for this, I was like, “Okay, what have I not really done?” I wanted whatever I did next to feel as authentic as possible — I wanted it to feel real to my life. I started my career on stage playing different characters and then stepping onto American Idol, and then stepping in with Queen. I get to sing the most amazing music and tour the world with them. But it’s all serving specific audiences, you know what I mean? And I wanted to do something that sounded like my social life" ... "Even before American Idol, the music that I was listening to in my 20s was a lot of electronic music. It was all dance-y electronic stuff. To be honest, I don’t really listen to classic rock in my free time, but when I auditioned for Idol, it was a lane that I saw opened up for me. And I was like, “I can do that. I like classic rock.”" www.billboard.com/culture/pride/adam-lambert-afters-ep-lgbtq-music-1235689009/

This is a good discussion about where Adam has been and where he is going with his music. He really is a chameleon. His huge voice lets him get into all genres with ease. I follow Adam and love him for a million reasons. His music and voice are part of it. But I've learned a ton of stuff through following him since 2009 about the music business, trends in popular culture, human rights, universal humanity and just plain kindness. It's more than just about songs.

He has ALWAYS talked about the stage as performance but also that it's not really false it's magnifying parts of himself. That doesn't preclude tailoring performances to specific audiences. Good performers are the ones who are good at reading their audience. Bono does much the same thing. He talks a lot about taking in the energy of the crowd and in his case he learned that he can affect the crowd by how he returns that energy. Adam is really no different. Any really good performer is a chameleon reflecting their surroundings.

Translated from Portuguese
listening to this cd and you understand how hard it is to stop myself from tweeting “it’s the best song in the world” every time something comes on… the quality of this cd is simply absurd and @adamlambert is the king of pop
