Just a quick mention. I'm playing around with colors and fonts. Is this hard to read. My background is dark so its good for me but I'm wondering about everyone else. Don't want people to scroll over me because its annoying! Thanks for asking for our input, Cheriemelissa! I'm unable to read this message because of the combination of italics, font and bright green.

I have been away from Atop at a family wedding in Northern California. I feel like I am missing so much fun! Don't have much time before the next event, but this morning my sister, who knows I love Adam, said, "It seems like Adam is getting kind of popular now. I never heard much about him for a long time, but I'm seeing him around now." Looks like promo is working TP people outside of the bubble and outside of fandom. Can't wait to come back and catch up on everything, and my CD will be at my house waiting for me when I get back tonight!

Adam Lambert “Trespassing” Review Allmusic by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
editor rating: 4 of 5 stars release date: May 15, 2012
duration: 42:34 genre: Pop/Rock styles: Pop, Pop Idol
Three years removed from American Idol, Adam Lambert is finally allowed to shake off the pageantry of the televised talent competition and dive into glitter on his second major-label album, Trespassing. There's a distinct lack of ballads on Trespassing -- they're clustered toward the end of the record, sometimes given a spangled once-over by producer Dr. Luke so they don't feel staid, sometimes hinting at the chilly, austere vistas of Ryan Tedder but sounding grander, warmer in the hands of Lambert. Here, the distance from the stuffiness of Idol is apparent but the heart of Trespassing lies in the first two-thirds of the album, when Lambert is strutting like a glam-disco diva, sparring with Dr. Luke and Pharrell Williams, belting out his hooks with an easy confidence. And he's got some great hooks here, too: big, bright, insistent hooks powering songs that revel in their sleaziness. Lambert matches their appeal, singing with an untrammeled joy suggesting that he's relishing an opportunity to make modern dance music. Williams is his greatest foil -- "Trespassing" and the Michael Jackson-via-Justin Timberlake "Kickin' In" grab immediately -- but that's not to slight the rest of the record, particularly the pulsating Nile Rodgers-fueled funk "Shady" and mirror-plated pop of "Cuckoo." Even if these songs never grace the charts, they sound like inevitable hits and prove that Lambert is a genuine pop star who has now left American Idol far behind.

ETA: This is used by Metacritic in their score.
