Adam Lambert on Outlaws of Love:
"When I wrote this song, I was directly referring to the sadness that I felt in taking in the adversity that the gay community faces on every level: marriage, bullying, acceptance of all kinds, our presence in the entertainment community, politics, all of it....There's been a lot of music in pop lately with inspirational messages saying, 'It's okay to be different, you can do it!' But this is a song that's like, 'F***, it sucks sometimes!' It really sucks, and it makes me sad. And that's the reality of it. My last album was all about escapism, for the most part, and this album's more about reflecting on the human condition. So sometimes it's sad."[/size] music.yahoo.com/blogs/reality-rocks/adam-lambert-discusses-shady-side-straight-jackets-nastiness-233906106.html~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PopDust: It’s been almost a year since “Outlaws of Love” has been out in public. The track’s become something of an unofficial theme both for Trespassing and for Adam’s career. You can read as much of a cultural meaning into “they’ve branded us outlaws of love” as you’d like–and it is worth noting that, as the Village Voice points out, no album by an openly gay artist has ever topped the Billboard album charts–but it’s just as applicable to star-crossed or thwarted lovers in general. It’s relatable to anyone who needs it.About the track itself, though. “Outlaws of Love” is far quieter than you’d expect from something with such a glam-metal title. Bon Jovi this is not; it’s a quiet acoustic track, built from slide guitar, percussion (at least in the beginning) no louder than a heartbeat and some of Adam’s softest vocals. The restraint’s welcome, particularly in contrast to some of the Top 40-bait found elsewhere. It makes everything here resonate far more than it otherwise might have, and it closes Trespassing with dignity and quiet reserve.popdust.com/2012/05/08/adam-lambert-trespassing-outlaws-of-love-review/

Listen: Adam Lambert's Beautiful Gay Rights AnthemMay 10, 2012 by Mark Blankenship  Remember a few weeks ago when I wrote an open letter to Adam Lambert's song 'Never Close Our Eyes'? That track is not my jam, but like I said, Lambert still has a room in my heart. And right now, that room is being rented by 'Outlaws of Love', a spine-tingling ballad from Lambert's upcoming album Trespassing. I just heard it a few minutes ago, and I've already got it on repeat. On the the most primal level, I love how this song sounds. In the beginning, Lambert's voice is haunting and restrained, easing up to high notes and gently sliding off them again. That's very difficult to do, technically speaking, and it gives dynamic energy to quiet music. As the song builds, the singing stays rich and subtle while instruments drop in one by one. A guitar arrives, then some drums. A piano joins the fray, and eventually, Lambert himself gets loud. The overall effect makes me think of someone who's trying to keep it together, who's trying to handle himself in a hard situation. But he just keeps feeling and feeling and eventually- boom. His emotions explode. That catharsis is more satisfying because the song's about homophobia. It's a cry of support for gay people who have been told their existence is wrong. 'They say we'll rot in hell', Lamberts sings. 'But I don't think we will. We're outlaws of love.' There have been plenty of recent songs that have delivered similar messages, but hits like 'Born This Way' and 'Firework' and 'F****n Perfect'focus on defiance and liberation. They empower us to dance our way to self-acceptance. But 'Outlaws of Love' isn't asking us to party. It's defiant, yes, but it's also wounded. And that's a real part of being oppressed.
In other words, this song is a vital new entry in pop music's ongoing conversation about letting people be themselves.www.newnownext.com/adam-lambert-gay-rights-song-review/05/2012/

UltimateGuitar.com Trespassing Review:One of my favorite songs off of the album, Outlaws of Love, most certainly talks about Adam Lambert's sexuality, and acceptance of yourself and true love, no matter what anyone else thinks. In the song, he sings "tears all fall the same, we all feel the rain, we can't change," then goes on to: "we're always on the run; they say we'll rot in hell, well, I don't think we will. They've branded us enough, outlaws of love". It's a powerful ballad that I think everyone should listen to at least once. Enough said about the lyrics.

September 17, 2012  Gay Pride 2012: More Than 30 Anthems Perfect For Celebrating
'Outlaws Of Love,' Adam Lambert (2012) The "American Idol" alum became the first openly gay performer to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with his album "Trespassing."
However, none of his songs expresses openly gay sentiment as much as "Outlaws of Love," which he premiered at a Canadian music festival in 2011.
"All of the things I've been talking about over the past year, all of it boils down to acceptance and this is a song that I wrote about how it feels, that no matter where you go or where you turn, sometimes it feels like you're just running from the law," he has said of the song. Rank: #3 Average: 4 stars Link: www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/12/gay-pride-2012-more-than-_n_1590789.html?utm_hp_ref=gay-voices&ncid=edlinkusaolp00000008#s=1056007
