www.vh1.com/music/tuner/?p=208677&xrs=share_twitterShearer’s Spotlight: The Dark Shadow Of American Idol Over the last decade, the world of popular music has discovered that most American Idol contestants, though very talented, aren’t necessarily artists: Performers who write their own songs and/or are really good at personalizing the ones written for them. The days of frosted hair and Kelly & Justin frolicking on a beach are over. Other ways to dodge the Shadow include: Pure talent (Jennifer Hudson); writing radio-friendly rock songs with your band (Chris Daughtry); having “Battlefield” and “S.O.S.” in your repertoire, dating a fellow pop-star, and starring in a movie with Whitney Houston (Jordin Sparks); or having the promise of being the greatest frontman on the planet as soon as the right rock band takes you hostage (Adam Lambert).
Yes... the shadow cometh.. whatever your name is season 11 winner.  Wouldn't count him out yet. He just sold 276,000 of his coronation single "Home", comparatively he is one of the highest selling winners. |

I read that article that Q3 posted above. I listen to top40 and that's all I listen to and all I like. I notice the patterns that it goes through. I know that we are now emerging out of that LMFAO super electronic, dance, pop, sound ie. Pitbull, JLo etc. I think that's going to die out as it's super repetitive and the same. I don't like rock or WGWG music or any of the AC station crap. My age demographic is on the upper age of the top 40 target market. In 100% honesty I think Trespassing is the best CD I've heard since I fell in love with Lady GaGa's first CD, Monster (not a big fan of the 2nd). This has nothing to do with being a fan of Adam. I may not publically vocalize anything I dislike of Adam's but at the same time I won't say I like something if I don't. I just say nothing I notice his older fans want the more rock sound but it's just not a sound that's current today. To me Trespassing is the sound of the next stage. I don't know if some realize just how good it really is because it might not be geared to that particular demographic. It's not what's on the radio now yet at the same time it is. It's the next step above. It's way superior to what's on their now. It's much more complex. It's updated retro. I hope the PD's are astute enough to see it. I know my friends who range in age from 22-28 agree with me that it's the best pop album out there. I know a lot of the UK media have seemed to realize it but they always tend to be a step ahead of the US as far as musical taste (We'll forgive them for Cher Lloyd and 1D) - maybe Just wanted to make 1 comment, I'm 57, and do NOT want Adam doing rock. I think it may be a bit of a generalization that older fans would prefer that he does rock. I know that there are older fans that do want him doing rock but I know MANY fans in my age category that feel as I do.  Totally! I enjoy Rock, but I am a Pop girl at heart and love Adam's Pop and most of what is on the radio. Sad that there are so many generaliztions made about people over a certain age. I don't generalize about people under 30, I wonder why the opposite is not true? :-/ |

AMAs þ@OfficialAMAs
VIDEO PREMIERE: Adam Lambert - Never Close Our Eyes youtu.be/u3dkVk3F57c Come on Glamberts! We need much more views for this awesome video!
Did the AMA's tweet "We need much more views"? Or did the poster type that? Do you all know how to make a loop? It's quite easy. It keeps it on constant play. Totally! I enjoy Rock, but I am a Pop girl at heart and love Adam's Pop and most of what is on the radio.

You're right. I think it's because I kept hearing it so much after Idol. The mantra about him doing a more rock edge. I know rock was really popular at one point. But it's not so current anymore. I keep hearing a lot of older fans constantly talking about the crap on top 40, that today's music sucks, etc. etc. I shouldn't generalize that everyone feels that way but a vocal group sure does :D |
