Do you all think radio would play NL? I mean, it's a suggestive title, and it's not from a female pop singer, it's Adam Lambert. I have my doubts. *sigh* I hope I'm so wrong. :-/ Hard to say. JMO, NL is a much better song. It's just catchier and full of personality. If NCOE ultimately flops, radio may just think people aren't interested in Adam, no matter what he puts out. That's why it's really important for RCA's people to get on the ball. I know the gay issue has been discussed to death but something happened a few days ago that made me look at things a little differently. I still don't think that most radio execs personally care if Adam is gay or not. BUT, when someone like Mo' Bounce, from Z100, tweets what he did the other day. He tweeted he didn't understand why women offered sexual favors to Adam on Twitter cause "Don't you know he's gay?" Since so many female fans of these big male artists, whether they be Bieber, the current boy bands, even the Chris Brown's of the world, they all have something in common, they just go all crazy for the heartthrob of the minute. I don't think the radio execs, who are primarily men, understand that, yes, many girls can get into a gay male artist. Just like Mo' Bounce didn't GET it. There will always be some who won't get into Adam for that reason but they're really underestimating his appeal to a lot of others who don't care. I wonder if this has anything to do with what's going on. |

I wonder if this has anything to do with what's going on. DJs were tweeting and saying this kind of crap during the WWFM and IIHY era. It didn't stop those two songs from climbing the charts. There will always be assholes and people that don't "get it". They were around two years ago and they are still around, so I don't see how these few idiots can be making a difference now when they didn't two years ago. |

I've got everything crossed for the success of NCOE.
I think that's important for the success of Trespassing. Just like WWFM meant so much for FYE. I'd like to see some more Grammy noms for Adam and I think that no matter how great a CD is, radio and sales make the difference in winning nominations and awards.
I hope that the fans who hate NCOE put aside their personal feelings and do everything possible to help it succeed.

In today's news I posted the Billboard story. Adam said very specifically this album is either going to make or break him.
We have got to be sure he is not broken!!!!I request, I vote, I do whatever, to make it all happen. Spins aren't enough yet !!!!
If fans do not make NCOE succeed, I doubt there will be a third single that gets played on the radio in the US.

I really think getting NCOE on VH1 top 20 will help his numbers, Adam is such a great visual artist. I think there will be another single.. maybe next time one of Adams. He just recently said there would be another single.. I hope,I hope.Fans are keeping ,keeping on. So that's really good. Sending you a  loving Adam is wurk.. LOL |
