The Sound Bath: Adam Lambert’s Trespassing: the vocal review
Posted on July 12, 2012 by soundbath
Nirvana is yet another of my personal favourites from Trespassing.
A stunning piece of art and although I’m astonished that it’s a bonus track, because it feels as though it could have been part of the album proper, I’m so glad that Nirvana was added to the album.
The drum beat at the beginning of the song makes it sound as though it might turn into something else, yet the moment Adam starts to sing, it’s clear that it’s a beautiful love ballad, in fact, it almost feels like a ‘lover’s lullaby.’
His lower harmonies are particularly wonderful, and help to create a lovely satisfying, almost vocal ‘orchestral’ sound that has the effect of making the listener feel as safe and loved as one imagines Nirvana for lovers would be.
The song is a wonderful example of Adam’s phenomenal technical abilities, because Nirvana perfectly showcases Adam’s expressive range. Here he paints layer-upon-layer of colour with his voice, singing in his pure tenor voice, before treating us to fantastic rock-type riffs which he seamlessly pulls back to beautiful light near-falsetto sounds, as only he can, giving us a pretty good glimpse at what Nirvana might actually sound like.
Adam also demonstrates successfully his impressive ability to make his voice express clearly his inner feelings and thoughts – by no means an easy feat in singing!
