You are so lucky Adam in coming to Houston. His tour is winding down, and he has only a few more stops. Also, this may be one of the last times to see him perform in a smaller venue. He has a great connection with the audience, puts on an amazing visual performance, and sings with so much feeling and great technique. It is just epic fun!

Adam has stunned us, amazed us, perplexed us, inspired us, and awakened forgotten passions in us since we heard him sing Bohemian Rhapsody, and some of us became addicted to that wonderful, pure voice he posesses. I felt it in my soul when he did not win, but then watched him accept it with a level of grace and maturity that we often don't see in entertainment industry, and knew then that his talent, and strenght of character will take him as far as he wants to go. I met this young man, and again I witnessed his giving nature when he conversed, hugged, and interacted with fans much more than his handlers were comfortable with. I hear no weak spots in his CD, listen to it everyday as I work, exercise, or occcassionally just sit and dream with it. I will see him perform in several weeks in Florida and I am looking forward to it with the most joyous of anticipation. Thank you a thousand times Mr. Lambert.

All of ADAM's music pre-Idol up to his FYE album is great listening ... especially his Upright Cabaret series & I have made my very own ADAM concert on my computer which I listen to everyday. I've downloaded practically every song ADAM has ever performed both video & audio. Can't go to his concerts but Ytube gives me the joy of watching ADAM at each venue. I'm hooked for life!!

I enjoy a variety of music, but i am addicted to the music of Adam Lambert. I think I have listened to his music everyday since he came off Idol. First his recordings from the show and now the For Your Entertainment cd. I try to listen to other stuff and i can for short periods of time, but I always have to go back to Adam. I love his debut cd, the variety for every mood and time of day. Considering the budget he had to work with and the short time his band has played together, his live show is amazing and oh so entertaining...

This is the only CD where I love every song (except maybe the lyrics to FYE). I've seen Adam in concert and he is exceptional. Very few people can sing live like he can. He has charisma and stage presence that is unbeatable. I've been to all sorts of rock concerts for 30 years (I will see GaGa tomorrow). He is the best I've seen live along with Springsteen and Bon Jovi. I hope he stays around for a long time. Thanks for the review.

I have seen several popular bands and singers in the last 12 months and none of them come close to what I've seen of Adam Lambert. A great voice, and a hot sexy dancer, now backed by a great band and accompanied by amazing dancers and performing great music. I am looking forward to his Houston show!

The article is spot on except for where he says it is "thin in spots" OK, just one man's opinion. I love every comment here for its earnestness and devotion and praise of Adam. We just cannot get enough of this man!!

15 months ago a amazing young man walked into our living room and simply stunned us and the world,his name...ADAM LAMBERT.A artist of such depth and power,you have to wonder if he is human..In a business of autotune and lip movers,we are reminded what a real singer can do when they are able to sing LIVE.Any singer can stand there and sing a song but it takes a real artist to bring it alive before your eyes,that is what ADAM LAMBERT is doing every night he steps on a concert stage...he has greatness at his feet!!

Yup you're right, another great contest comes along and it could revive the show quickly, it still has a huge draw but the tour was dismal, just too boring a group all around. I wasn't even really an AI fan until someone told me to watch Adam and then I just DVR'd and went to the performances, missed all the nonsense they fill time with.
But the season was epic in part cuz of the other good candidates (love Allison! and so does Adam and he has her on his tour with him) but also that Adam was so good he got ppl like Queen and Kiss and slash to go on, just for him, he got permission to sing exciting songs not on the tired playlist cuz the owners knew he wouldn't butcher it (ie: Zep's WLL).
His CD is really good, not as much rock as I would have like and a little over produced but live he's unmatched and his kick ass rocking band add a great rock element to more of the songs. Dont miss seeing him if can help it.

It IS the best CD put out EVER by an Idol. Hope Adam has a long and successful career. He definitely has the voice!
Wow, I'm living in the future. Today is only September 1, article is dated September 2.

When you get to experience Adam live, you can actually "feel" his voice. Then when you come home and watch videos or listen to the CD, you can remember what it was like live and kind of relive it. But somehow you "need" to see the show again....and again. He also makes it a little different each time. He is that great of an actor and entertainer. I also agree with Bill that Adam is still the chubby redhead who doesn't fit in. This is very evident when at the end of his performance his fierce face comes off, he comes out of his character and flashes that million dollar 8 year old boy smile. Look up "20th Century Boy" from Indianapolis from August 31. Watch til the very end if you can get through it without backing it up a few times. He was in rare form.

I am soo happy his Glam Nation Tour is coming to Texas. I have tickets to the show at the Hobby Center next week, Dallas and OK. My only regret is that I did not buy tickets fast enough and had to settle for so,so seats!

Adam Lambert is one of a kind artist, I am hooked since AI8, have not stopped looking up news about Adam since then. He got angelic voice,stage presece,very handsome and oh so down to earth,sweet,charming personality. I have never felt this way before for anybody, er his spell and loving it.

sheba 09/01/2010 11:17:00 PM
Yes, Adam is a TRUE champion. I have been to his glamnation Tour and he was badass AMAZING!!!! I want MORE, so I will see him 3 more times in FL.
I agree, He is the ONLY artist that is WORTH talking about from this show. I think Adam marks the END of AI. They had to end the show last year. oo sad for the AI tour.

You have to experience this man live and you will leave as a different person, no kidding. Adam Lambert puts you under a spell from the beginning and the magic stays once you are back home after the concert and listen to his cd. The way he performs and conveys all sorts of emotions goes deeper than you anticipate.
Adam Lambert's album is filled with catchy pop tunes, sexy dance songs, thrilling rock vocals and beautiful ballads as well. There is a song for every mood and I have not been able to pick a favorite yet, but I can tell you this, after seeing Adam in concert you leave with a new appreciation for his music for sure and you are likely to be hooked forever. He is this good.

Love your bizarre and electrifying description of Adam!He is that and so much more.I got his disc the day it came out and never tire of it. I know I better make room for his next album soon tho.My family said they are going to help me with my withdrawal from FYI.LOL.

Jim Sykes 09/01/2010 10:45:00 PM
I haven't picked up the CD yet - it's on my list. Queen is my all time favorite band and there is not a band out there today that can give Queen a run for the money. I did see this kid perform with Queen a few months back on YouTube. I checked it out after reading Brian May's comments on him. My thought: if Brian May considers this kid's voice as good as he does and actually compared him to the all time great Mercury than I'll check him out. I never been to the Hobby Center but I'll check it out next week.

Bill Mitchell 09/01/2010 10:19:00 PM
Besides being able to sing so well, I think Adam's appeal is due to the fact that underneath all the style and flash, he is still that chubby redheaded kid who wasn't popular in school and realized he was gay at a young age but couldn't tell anyone.
I think this is why his music has a certain "corniness" to it - he doesn't have the benefit of having always been cool - it's almost like an act. Most of us can relate to that internal struggle, trying to be something we fear that maybe we aren't and it endears us to Adam. In a way, we see him up there on that stage and we imagine ourselves becoming who we dream of being.
It's more than just the music. He mirrors us - we relate.

Actually, this album received very good reviews when it came out. Also, well received around the world. I personally think it's a top album, as are the 3 singles. My favorite single, For Your Entertainment did not get enough air play--yes, I kinda, sorta understand. Adam Lambert has the voice and performance of our time.
-
Deb 09/01/2010 10:05:00 PM
Absolutely love Adam's free spirit. He is "weird" but in a good way. One moment he's a dork and the next moment he's the sexiest guy on the planet. Love his album.

Laurence 09/01/2010 9:36:00 PM
There's something about his voice, coming at you through airwaves in 000s and 111s, that finds receptors in your brain and whether you want to or not, they're gonna be there for hours or until the next day which leaves you craving to hear his voice once again. Never had this happen to me since Arrowsmith's Love on an Elevator or MJ's Thriller. He's the real deal in a great-looking package and a trip to see in person not to mention that when he gets a good night's sleep, he witty, funny, and fun.

MaryL 09/01/2010 9:34:00 PM
I love Adam's debut album. It's the only album that I've ever bought where I listen to every single song. I can't wait for his next cd. It will be amazing!
