I can understand release date of 9th....Adam is in Uk that week for Queen concerts but I really don't see the logic of releasing the single the day before ??

I think that Pressparty article is wrong July 22 is a Sunday ...Graham Norton is on Fridays i.e June 22 The show has a good sized audience but can't see why they would delay release just for that ! Anyway we have known he will be on it for 2 weeks...why wait until now to delay the date ? ETA They tape the day before airing Never known them to wait a month !! I opened the link again and they fixed it. June 22nd . It was a mistake. www.pressparty.com/pg/newsdesk/adamlambert/view/48713/ |

Time to build up radio play and it's just as Queen picks up, and would keep picking up into the next week of Queen. |

Capital FM @capitalofficial Ok so what do you think we used for 'A' in #AdamLambertAToZ Correct answers get a follow... #ThisOneIsEasy  www.capitalfm.com/artists/adam-lambert/photos/a-to-z/The A-Z Of Adam Lambert As Adam Lambert unveils new single 'Never Close Our Eyes', Capital takes a look at the former American Idol star's career alphabetically - from a to z. A is for American Idol The star rose to fame after he was named the runner-up on the eight season of the music reality series.  B is for Beginnings The star scored his first job on a cruise ship at the age of 19.  MORE ETA I think you should watch these pictures, they did a really good job and they have Eber too with really nice quotes for each letter This is fun! We could make this our own game, coming up with something for Adam for every letter. I like most of their choices, but would have changed a few. I think there would be better choices for K,N and O |

Oh good. Because a delay of a month would make no sense at all. Thanks gelly. |

I don't have a way with words, that's why I spend most of my time lurking  And I will do my best to make this short and sweet. I've been pondering the sense of unease that can be felt throughout fandom... whether it's fear, worry, or just plain battle fatigue. We've chosen to support a man who's path is difficult on many levels. Change doesn't come easily, Adam knows this and we know it intellectually, but I think emotionally we wish that wasn't so. I think we need to savor our victories, Grammy nomination and a critically acclaimed 2nd album to name just two, but accept that it's going to be a long process. I'm stubborn and Adam deserves success and I'm not going let the difficulties he faces wear me down or take the joy out of supporting such a deserving individual. |

A question.. What does it take to get Adam's Never Close Our Eyes On Vh1 top 20?? VH1 24,930 views... Come on already Trespassing was # 1 album in U.S. and Canada, being played more on radio stations,sexiest male singer on Billboard.Great video..Jim are you reading this ? Did you see this video. Patience my ass. This question has been answered several times, over the last week. It takes a combination (that no one knows for sure) of a song moving up the charts, a presence on iTunes, fan votes and most likely the most important factor is MONEY from the label. There are no hard and fast rules for what makes it on VH1 and they certainly aren't going to care about some fan-driven award on Billboard. It doesn't matter if the album was #1, the single from that album needs to be doing well on the HAC or the CHR chart. |

I don't think we should be surprised that "gay" is a large part of the dialogue for the Trespassing era. And I do think that most of it IS favorable. After all, Adam DID make music history with his #1 placement of Trespassing. This IS big news and worthy of commentary. What would have been bad if Adam, openly gay singer, released his sophmore album and failed to chart. That would have been bad news. I'll take this commentary anytime. And I think that Adam, whether he chose this role or not, is a brilliant attractive compelling figure for gay progress in this time period. Perhaps I am in the minority in the fandom, but the "gay" dialogue doesn't offend or anger me at all. I just feel so proud when Adam speaks. 8-) I agree. There were a few journalists who tried to make fun of the "gay" issue and were just vulgar IMO, but I think the vast majority were respectful and genuinely interested. After all, if the public wants to know about it, it's the journalists job to ask about it. And the public does want to know, it seems, and I'm glad they do. Not talking about it keeps it "mysterious" and doesn't help anyone; ignorance begets bigotry IMO. Only when people are informed (and see that gay is just as boring as straight  , will they be able to move on to the "post-gay" phase, and just not care any more. Telling people now not to talk about it, won't help their perception and way of thinking. That's how I feel. Now sure it isn't fair that Adam is the one that has to carry the bulk of this burdain. But I must say I enjoy this era's interviews much more than last era's, when it was all about how to apply eyeliner the right way, and what it was like meeting Madonna. |
