My sister, who is not necessarily an Adam Lambert fan, just heard the beginning of Trespassing (CD). She heard the first four tracks and said she liked it. "It was much happier sounding than I thought it would be." I am wondering if this is due to the singles that have been put out WWFM, BTIKM and NCOE. I thought this was a funny comment from her, but now I wonder how many people think most of his music is not happy music. I know IIHY and FYE were singles too, but I doubt they were heard by many people. I find that interesting, too. Everyone I play Runnin and Trespassing for say they are going to buy the album and hope both of those are singles. Since it's difficult to pick a single that's representative of his album, why not go with the title track to keep it on people's minds? Followed by Runnin' which everyone seems to love. Water under the proverbial bridge, but I truly think they are going for album sales, not just single sales for Adam. Why not? The album is a powerful piece of work. |

I've been tweeting this if anyone wants to join in:  Is everyone ready to take Adam Lambert's #Trespassing rocket ship to #1 around the world? Seriously #AdamLambert #number1We could make it even more simple #AdamLambert's #Trespassing to #number1Actually from @adamgossip on twitter after some online discussion there is now a trending schedule for the next few days. Yay! hope everyone pitches in: Sunday 5/13 #AdamOnGMA 9PM EST Monday 5/14 #AdamOnGMA 7-9AM EST #AdamOnVH1 10AM EST Tuesday 5/15 #BuyAdamLambertTrespassing 9PM EST Wednesday 5/16 #AdamOnIdolTomorrow 8PM EST (just tack it onto your Idol tweets) Thursday 5/17 #AdamOnIdol 8PM EST (they might put up #AdamLambertOnIdol idk) Great! Maybe we can crank a few of them up with an additional "#Trespassing to #1" or do that separately. Always good to keep one's eye on a target. |

I agree with all of you regarding gifting regular vs. deluxe version. Thank you for bringing it to my attention ;D.........just ordered 3 more deluxe versions from Barnes & Noble ...........great price and free shipping if you order $25.00 or more : My husband is going to send me to live with nationalglampoon if he hears "Runnin" one more time.
(Don't worry nationalglampoon, he will send me with a return ticket, hubby doesn't do laundry and CAN NOT match a tie to a shirt unless it is a solid color to save his life ;D)  SAD........but the TRUTH  |

Runnin' does seem to be universal in its appeal....Just played it for my husband who's been away on a business trip. Knew he'd love it, but was surprised when he preferred it over Shady or any of the other tracks....he loved it.

Can a single ever develop organically?
I can hear us at his concerts chanting Runnin', Runnin', Runnin', Runnin'...

Oooh.... new gadgets to play with - ta Q3 I luvz bright, shiny, new thingses - especially fontses. I'mma bit of a font junkie really  OK, I started to do a list of all the fonts in their actual typefaces so that everyone had some sort of guide/reference to work with as some fonts work well as body text, others as headlines only and scripts need to be used sparingly. But Q3 *pouts* not all of em are working for me. The ones in blue are fine, but from what I can see all the others are defaulting to Times Roman and not what they should be ??? ??? ??? I'm on a Mac, have around 6,000 fonts in total and over 600 loaded into my system at any given time. Most of the ones not showing up here I already have in my system - but not sure whether that has absolutely anything to do with the price of fish tho Arial - I Love Adam

If we trend different things it is not additive.
The best trends are actually things that can be used by non fans who join in. So #Trespassing is perfects. You can use it is all kinds of ways.
I expect that Adam may throw a hook into this schedule but barring that I will support this list because there is power in unity. |

They all work for me. But I have not tried on my Mac. The fonts are hosted on the forum so should not need to be on your computer or device.
I will research.
Nice test -- would be pleased to know if they work for others. |

I will research.Most of the ones in black for me also show up as Times Roman. I am using Firefox on Windows, which should be working. |
