  • Truthiness

    so yeah, missing time due to listening to the single and/or needing to go walk off the bad reaction to it…totally covered under the FMLA, right?

    Is it too late to get some Xanax for tomorrow?

  • dab1234

    My very first SQUEEEEEEE :)

  • Maria22

    OMG! This is amazing, of course I’ll be at work and will miss it but hopefully mj will post a link (please) ?!

  • rblaha1234

    I AM SO HAPPY I CAN’T WAIT. SO EXCITED.

  • http://www.irish-wolfhounds.com Buderschnookie

    So is the single title “Entertainment” or “For Your Entertainment”??

    “Entertainment” – The default title track and statement of intent, masterminded by Dr. Luke (Katy Perry) and Claude Kelly (Britney Spears, Kelly Clarkson), Adam opens this one up, Rocky Horror-meets-Robbie Williams-style, with the audacious declaration: “I’m here for your entertainment!” And he ain’t kidding. This is an ultra-caffeinated party-starter (imagine if Mika, Sam Sparro, and Kevin Rudolf had a threesome that resulted in the conception of a glittery alien baby…if you dare), and it’s just begging to be remixed by everyone from Calvin Harris to the Neptunes to Justice–even though it sounds like a shiz-hawt remix already, as is.

  • Starshine

    Finally!
    If I stay up all night will tomorrow get here sooner??

    CAN WE GET IT ON I TUNES TOMORROW??

  • lorismile

    Really, poor MJ! She puts up with alot.

    After so much waiting and so much teasing, I can’t believe we hear new Adam music tomorrow! I’m so excited! My daughter’s Bday tomorrow so she will think it’s just for her lol

  • Kirsten

    So is the single title ‘Entertainment’  or ‘For Your Entertainment’ ??

    It’s the same song. They just renamed it to synch it up with the album title.

  • bridgeymah

    The overseas people should start a lottery about how many posts there will be here by the time we are awake to check on it…

    but then 6.55am in LA is only 12.55am in Oz so maybe I will still be up.

    So is the single title ‘Entertainment’  or ‘For Your Entertainment’ ??

    Adam keeps referring to it as “For Your Entertainment”, so I’m assuming he knows the name of his own single :) .

  • ravengirl

    Wow, oh wow, oh wow. I haven’t been this excited and giddy since Christmas circa childhood! And yet nervous! It’s hard to believe this day is finally almost here. I. Cannot. Breathe.

    That whole Pink song rumor sounded so fishy. All signs pointed to a crazy hawt dance number as Adam’s first single…

  • Sherena

    Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    So I think I’ll wait until the afternoon to listen. If I listen in the morning I won’t have enough time to react fully before I have to attend to real life. So I will be late to the party. But very excited at the thought of coming home to a nice embedded tune on mj’s…

  • suebrody

    It’s called I AM EPIC.

    No, not really.

    I am going for 1500 posts, bridgey, altogether, and 5000 for the album. Stay up for it. You KNOW you want to. :)

    Thanks for the new thread, MJ.

    Twitter is beginning to implode.

    *flailing and squeeing*

    dab1234, your first squee? Girlfriend, let me show you how it’s done. lol

  • boredinschool

    Oooooh looks like I can listen to the song in the morning when it debuts! Awesome :D
    …and then hurriedly rush off and hope that I won’t be late for school.

    Xanax and Mimosas for all!

    First round is on me, but if it’s not good, than youze all are on your own for the next rounds, because I’ll be concentrating on myself after that point.

  • ilovekrisallen39

    Well tomorrow is the big day for Adam and all his fans am so excited. His also #2 on amazon. Am really interrested on how it’s going to sound. Am so hoping we all fall in love with the song right away. Tweeter is sure going crazy. I hope it makes me want to get up and dance my butt off. Am going to decided to be excited for tomorrow instead of a worry wart. So yeah yeah yeah for Adam. And the wait is finally over.

  • karenw

    ooo great news .. we put our clocks back an hour here in the UK last weekend so I think we’re 7 hours ahead of PST instead of 8 at the moment so that should be 1.55 pm our time .. I think .. I can’t actually count straight at the moment I’m that excited.

    oh god I hope I don’t hate it after all of this …lol

    Can I have some mimosas too since I swear ya’ll are bringing back my anxiety from last year? HA!

    I’ll pick up some more on the way home since I won’t be able to listen until after work.

  • suebrody

    GET UP AND DANCE, BITCHES!

    Okay.

    I totally knew it wasn’t going to be Pink. Nooo. Dance, little sister, dance.

  • FifthHouseSun

    Some things to soothe us:

    It does not matter if it a piece of drekkola song. Plenty drekkola goes Platinum weekly. Anything 2 points better than “Want” is passable. He sounds great singing almost anything.

    And we know, for sure, that it’s going to a have a great beat. And Adam is all about the hot, dancey, interesting bassline.

    There is only one question up in the air: Production values. Will it be an over-produced, electronica laden, auto-tuned, fuzz fest where it could be anyone and you don’t even recognize Adam’s voice through the twelve layers of echo and verb – or will you actually be able to hear him sing?

    Otherwise, Isn’t it exciting to be so passionate about something? Not over-invested. Inspired. Ignited.

    Just giggling at the absurdity of feeling like a kid thinking about going to bed earlier to make Christmas or a birthday happen faster.

  • bridgette12

    Tomorrow is going to be EPIC! I can’t wait to hear this song.

  • Tess

    OK..OK.. I am really, really curious and you guys have all the answers. Has any other idol had their single debuted on Ryan’s show? I’ve never paid much attention so I wouldn’t know. I’m pretty sure he has debuted a number of songs from other singers.
    And I know many idols who have debuted on Kiss New York to a huge audience.

    This is the one time that twitter is KING…no better marketing tool.

    6:55 in LA is prime drive time since it takes 2 hours to go 10 miles on the freeway in Rush Hour (probably an exaggeration) and the younger crowd is tuned in before first class, and the clubbers are just getting home, and I’m always up way before then.

    Please or please let me not croak tonight!!

  • girlygirl

    For once I’m glad I work an early shift on Fridays. Most days I wouldn’t be awake for this, but I will be for this one.

    I’m trying to keep my expectations realistic, but I’m very excited to finally get the chance to hear Adam’s single. From the description, I’m thinking I’ll like it, but some pop/dance tracks can be really repetitive, so we’ll see.

    Crossing my fingers. And let’s hope Adam is more awake than Kris seemed to be when he was on Ryan’s show at the same time a few weeks back. This is REALLY early for these guys to be up. No clubbing tonight for Adam, I’m guessing…

  • Studio57

    Um, MJ? Don’t you mean Fianlly? :)

    I am so scared and excited. I mean we know it’s a dance song, and it’s described as Rocky Horror meets Robbie Williams. That’s some scary shit, people!

  • dsp

    OMG…just got home and saw this….no mimosa for me in the am as I’ll be at work (damn it) bbut I am going to put Ryan on …i may need my asthma inhaler and xanax tonight because i am soooooo excited

  • listen

    My biggest fear (yes, I know I said not to angst in that other thread) is it will be over-processed and we won’t hear Adam’s beautiful vocals.

    I really just want to hear Adam’s voice. I can dance my ass off to any ol’ dance tune, it is Adam’s VOICE that I care about, not the beat.

    So, Adam, don’t disappoint, ya hear ???

    Oh my lord. After all this time waiting, flailing, and pining it is fianlly HERE!!!! I just cant belive after all this time I have been counting down to this unknown date. I KNOW I will love it.

    I’ve said it before, he knows what he is doing. The song will be great and even if you don’t love it first time around keep listening. You will….

  • suebrody

    Yeah, I wrote the prospective student and asked if he could come in at 12noon. Instead. I NEVER do that, but I really had to. I hope no one finds out and he gets the email in time. Please don’t tell anyone that I do this.

    I am 12. No, luv is clearly more mature than I am.

    ADAM IS FIERCE. And dancey. Very dancey.

    I can’t remember ever being this excited for new music. I have faith that Adam will not let us down.

    Indeed. Oh My Ra, Kiss and Tell and the Pop Goes The Camera all were pretty processed…which I was fine with. His voice was distinctive to me, but it was VERY dance/electro/pop so a lot of processing.

  • Cookiebr7

    Thanks for posting this information! I am a long standing reader/lurker, and I have only ever poted once before. I am so thrilled that there will be new music to listen to and hopefully, everyone will move on from the cover discussions. I was not believing the Pink song as the first single. I have read in addition to this blog, that of NYMichael, who had posted that Adam’s first single was likely to be a dance track…and this was designed on purpose so that there would be two very different song sung by Adam on the charts at the same time, each appealing to a different audience. Does this sound right? I don’t know the names for the different markets, some of you probably do. Also, I read an article on the internet today that said that TFM charted for the first time on the Billboard top 100 at #50. Did anyone else see this? The article went on to say that this first time placement was the highest of any idol in the show’s history.

  • CindyM

    Well…remember Lyndsey also said this in her listening blog:

    These freaky-deaky songs, in all their wondrously neon-lit, mirror-balled, future-shocked, robot-rockin’ glory, almost don’t even sound like they were recorded by the same artist, the same human being…except for the fact that that voice is unmistakable, of course.

    Yep, I know. I have all his pre-Idol stuff. Some is really more electronica (is that the right term) than I like, so I am keeping my expectations down to a low roar….

  • oceanarose

    Funny as this sounds this helps calm my nerves. I didn’t really care for these two songs the first few times around. I even *gasp* skipped them on the cd I make for awhile. But now I really like them. So I know that even I don’t like it right away I will probably come to after a few listens.

    I’m about equal parts nervous and excited. I just want to be able to hear the voice. I want to hear the song and have it be immediately recognizable as Adam.

    And I am trying to remind myself that I rarely love a song on the first listen so I won’t be freaked out if it’s not what I was expecting.

    I think all the AI non internet fans watching Oprah today finally figured out that the Idols are releasing their music. Kris is up to #32 from #61. See what a little real life promotion can do.

    1. Please don’t lecture posters: tell others what to think, what to feel.
    2. Please respect other’s opinions. Not everyone is going to like Adam’s new song.
    3. These threads are for everyone, fans who flail, fans who are skeptics and non-fans.
    4. If you’re looking for uninterrupted celebratory flailing, your favorite fan forum is probably your best bet tomorrow morning.

    ETA: This thread is fine, I’m referring to some of the discussion in the headlines thread. I know everyone is excited. Just have fun.

    I’m not a huge fan of Oh My Ra, though it’s aiight after awhile (can be very earwormy), but the Fonzerelli of K&T and the regular PGtC I liked right away.

    And hey, he did that hoary TfM with no processing and a one and half octave range in the song. So now he can do something else this time so everyone has something.

    Hey, guys. I read this blog everyday since season 8. But I never had the courage to comment.

    But after reading the title “Adam Lambert Debuts FYE” I had this urge to talk about it here.

    I can’t even describe how excited I am about this. I’m so happy for him, for us (glamberts) and everyone (outside the Idol bubble) that will get to know this amazing artist tomorrow. =)

    I hope Adam’s tweet about “Egyptian Lover” is random and he is not hinting that his song is similar to that piece of crap. That is crap in it’s purest form. I am scared of his taste in music now. Haha.

    I don’t expect everyone will like it. What’s the point of having different music genres / styles if everyone liked the same thing.

    But, I am very excited for new Adam material. Reminds me of Tuesdays during Idol. What’s he going to sing? How is he going to twist the song? Is he going to go for the high note or tone it down? How is he going to top last week?

    I personally don’t expect to like every single that my favorites put out each year. I remember alot of mixed reactions to LO last year. It went on to do well and the fans survived.
    If I don’t love this single, there will be other songs on the cd that I do love. If I don’t like the single, I’ll move on to the next thing. (late-night shows,AMAs,album,tour,etc.)

    I agree with Adam…It’s really not that deep. It’s music-it’s meant to enhance our lives. Following Adam is like a roller coaster ride. I don’t always LOVE everything he does, but I LOVE the ride!
    ETA: I’m expecting to love it. I love THE VOICE. I like BEP,Gaga, Pink, Muse,etc. Plus, I’m easy when it comes to Adam.

    Reminder:

    1. Please don’t lecture posters: tell others what to think, what to feel.
    2. Please respect other’s opinions. Not everyone is going to like Adam’s new song.
    3. These threads are for everyone, fans who flail, fans who are skeptics and non-fans.
    4. If you’re looking for uninterrupted celebratory flailing, your favorite fan forum is probably your best bet tomorrow morning.

    ETA: This thread is fine, I’m referring to some of the discussion in the headlines thread. I know everyone is excited. Just have fun.

    Can you add something like: Not everyone is going to hate Adam’s song, so those opinions should be respected too.

    I think that sentiment gets overlooked too.

  • happycat14

    Yeah, that Space Cowboy song is dreck, but that girl is gorgeous and the video is all up in its own attitude.

    Ryan Seacrest is a cute Adam fanboy. I’m hoping at least some of his 2.5 million twitter followers decide to check out the song. Perez will be all over that shizz.

    Um, if “FYE” is all over youtube and dl links start flying around asap because it’s not going to be on itunes tomorrow too (because that’d be expecting too much from RCA), won’t Adam’s sales be really hurt?

    And I actually really like “Party in the USA” hate to say it, so fingers crossed for some Claude Kelly/Dr. Luke magic. I have NO CLUE what this song will sound like.

  • Squirrely

    Can you add something like: Not everyone is going to hate Adam’s song, so those opinions should be respected too.

    I second that

  • Truthiness

    Well, good luck to Adam in the morning on Seacrest’s show. Considering my history with post-AI music, I’m not even expecting to like it. So, anything better than mediocre will be a pleasant surprise for me

    I so agree. As I have said many times, most post AI work is dreck. I haven’t been proven terribly wrong yet, I don’t expect that this will be too terribly different. I just want it to be somewhat enjoyable crap that I think has a chance of commercially succeeeding, oh and that I can bop to. That’s it. I just want bop, fun, dancey music others might buy. And no, I don’t expect it to go to number 1 or whatever, Not even close, not after the last time, ha! If it does well over the longhaul and I like the tune, I will be happy.

    Okay, must go off to buy some champers for everyone’s Mimosas for tomorrow.

    Um, if ‘FYE’  is all over youtube and dl links start flying around asap because it’s not going to be on itunes tomorrow too (because that’d be expecting too much from RCA), won’t Adam’s sales be really hurt?

    Ryan will probably run his little jingle through it.

  • Tess

    I hope Adam’s tweet about ‘Egyptian Lover’  is random

    I think the synth beats and the “music” is exactly what Adam’s musical background will be. I don’t think his voice will be altered, but he’s going for “Ring of Fire” sped up 100 times. This isn’t going to be classic guitar and drums.

  • Summer

    But, I am very excited for new Adam material. Reminds me of Tuesdays during Idol. What’s he going to sing? How is he going to twist the song? Is he going to go for the high note or tone it down? How is he going to top last week?

    and What’s he going to wear? oh, nvm, it’s radio… and it’s a call in…..

  • FifthHouseSun

    …butterflies in my stomach.

    dyg1, imagine how Adam feels.

    This Is It ain’t just a Michael Jackson movie. Everything up until tomorrow very early has been prologue. Even TFM was still just another kind of covering someone else’s song.

    Tomorrow is for real.

    So, maybe, dietcoke, Adam is tweeting about bad songs – and Britney(!) – for the same reason I’m posting like a loon and we’re all considering Google searching recipes for Morning Mai-Tai’s – nerves. He’s got to be nervous.

    Sending the man some big beams of thanks and light. Been magical fun so far. No matter what happens next, like tomorrow morning, going to be there assuming more magic on its way.

  • Summer

    RT @MrLaBryFYP: MY NEW SERIES ‘THE WORLD IS YOUR OYSTER’  shwoing november 18th maybe 17th’ ¦763 seward ave. los angeles. VERYVERY SEXY.

    That’s weird, even going to Adam’s twitter page and not just my feed, I don’t see that tweet at all.

    He prob deleted it so he wouldn’t be mobbed with fans at Drakes
    opening.

    Well, it’s time to get down and boogie.

    There are no boundaries
    This is a great song
    This will not suck, it
    Will be right, not wrong
    We will all love it
    At least I know I will
    I’m so excited,
    I kind of feel ill

    There are no boundaries
    To what Adam will do
    Just come along and
    Be part of it, too.

    :)

  • oceanarose

    Glad I have you guys to hang out with. No other Adam fans in close proximity. I would go nuts without you.

    (BTW ever tried to type with a 2 yr old laying across you arm? Not easy!)

    Not really. Either they’ll buy it when it comes out on itunes for better quality. Or they’ll find another better quality dl link after it comes out on itunes and still not pay for it.

  • Chicagolaw

    I am bracing myself—I remember last year hearing LO for the first time, loving it, and then rushing to the message board to see reactions and finding they were mostly negative, lol. I know I won’t love everything on Adam’s CD, but I REALLY want to love this first single. Picking a first single is pretty huge, I am sure RCA took their time and made a smart decision…

  • fearbear

    Gah, I’m so excited. This better be kick ass for all the waiting you’ve made me do Adam!

  • mikas

    Thank you all for such a nice welcome. You guys rock!

    I hope too that Adam’s voice don’t get “crushed” by overproduction on the song. And I think that this won’t happen.

    Adam is a very smart singer. One of the smartest Idols that have ever been on the show. He knows that his success is in showing his powerful voice. ;)

    I have to go to sleep now. It’s 12:12 am here and I have work early in the morning. But as soon as I got home, I’ll come here to (hopefully) freak out in a good way about FYE with you guys.

    Good night to everyone.

    And that we all have a good day as an Adam fan tomorrow.

  • lorismile

    Wow that Egyptian Lover girl singer is not very good. I mean she sings better than me but ain’t saying much.

    I do think that is probably the sound he is going for. Personally I can’t wait to shake my ass with Adam.

  • Tess

    Remember for every 1 paid download there are 20 illegal ones. People who pirate a copy would pirate a single from everyone…so in the long run it won’t matter…every Artist has their stuff nabbed illegally. Sad, huh? Except Adam won’t get his 7cents for the illegal ones….not quite as many dimmers.

  • lydia

    I fully expect Adam’s first single to be as “entertaining” as his album cover. I enjoy popcorn with my mimosas.

  • Sherena

    The Egyptian Lover singer looks bored out of her mind. lol. I like 3 though, even though the overprocessing makes it painful for me to listen to it more than a few times in a row.

  • dsp

    BeckyMD…thanks for the Adam pics…I had not seen the two with brownish hair. He is sooo amazing…..Trying to figure out how I can listen to Ryan uninterrupted at 0855CST in an elementary school. And with this kind of excitement who the hell needs antidepressants…..

  • dyg1

    Oh, good, dyg1, I thought I was the only one who rescheduled meetings. lol

    We need to have priorities in our lives ;-)

    I am so excited I cannot sleep. 4:12 am now. I am very glad that Adam ´s song will be first aired on Ryan ´s program. I hope that it is immediately posted online. Ryan should stream it live, though.

  • ravengirl

    Thanks BeckyMD for the pretty pics. Isn’t it amazing how he knows how to play into the camera and come off with such a wide range of looks? He is amazing.

    And Fifth, you are so right: Tomorrow is for real.

    CindyM, thanks for reminding me of what Lyndsey Parker said about the songs and being able to hear Adam’s voice shine through. That relieves my fears of over-processed, mostly …

    SueBrody, love your song. Revive that mouse!

  • alaadam

    It is funny to come on here and see all of the expectations lowered after the last week or two. That’s a good thing though. I had to get realistic in my own heart after TFM, etc. Maybe this time, we can have our expectations exceeded and party and dance all weekend after we hear the song! It would be nice to be going on the fun side of the rollercoaster for a while again. But, now I am so nervous and excited I can’t sleep. Boo.

  • Bowie1

    BeckyMD–Thanks for all the great pics of Adam. Those eyes….you just can’t stop looking at those beautiful eyes!

    I’m not going to be able to listen to Ryan’s radio show in the morning but I’m not worried because I know MJ will post it up so I won’t have missed anything when I get to the thread!

    Welcome mikas..so glad you joined us at this really exciting time!

  • suebrody

    Won’t it be streamed live? MJ did that for the announcement of the AMA’s right?

    I cannot believe my mouse died. Epic FAIL!!!

  • Adamme

    Just get here and found this special thread. I haven’t read all the post yet.. but just want to say this:

    All the people that’re around Adam & RCA and pretty sure have heard this song for at least a week, are really good in keep the lid tight…. or mabye RCA made them signed a legal form so they won’t leak it.. LOL.. We didn’t hear any leak for this single before the offical debut in Ryan’s tomorrow…. WOW

    I bet Ryan’s already heard FYE when he twitted this yesterday

    “when do we get it? RT @adamlambert: Debut single is called “For Your Entertainment” get ready to shake yo asses. It’ll make ya dance

    Ohh.. I’m going to open my mind and won’t expect anything.. it’s more fun like this. Whether I like it or not, I will still be happy for Adam. And I promise my self that I will ignore all the trolls that come to Adam thread tomorrow to ruin my happy happy day … ;) .. :grin:

    squeeeeeeeeee

    off to read all the postings..

  • listen

    BeckyMD – thanks for the photos. Those are all new to me. Loved the ones on the boat. So cute.

    Sure hope Adam slathers on the sun block, he is after all, a strawberry-blond, blue-eyed, freckled-skin guy and those people never. tan. They just don’t. He probably just sunburns and peels, bummer.

    Okay, that took my mind off the single dropping tomorrow, for all of 5 minutes.

  • suebrody

    Thanks, ravengirl. I can’t, and believe me, I keep trying

    Guess I will be going to work extra early tomorrow! ;)

  • Chipmunk

    Oh fuck yeah!!!!

    Bring it!

    I’ll take a peek at lunchtime to see if its any good

  • jill16

    LOL at all of us….we’ve waited so long for this day to come, and now that it fianally has, we’re nervous and worried! If the single doesn’t meet expectations, I’m sure there will be other songs on his album we’ll love. Keep the faith!

    Oh and Becky, thank you for posting those pictures!

  • Bowie1

    Adamme–don’t worry! We won’t let anything ruin our Adam day tomorrow. We’ll just throw some glitter dust around and dance our asses off!!

    And “suebrody” I love your poem!

  • alison8701

    that’s really early. That’s like 9:55 here. I think.

  • Tess

    Alrighty then BeckyMD…I don’t usually get all worked up over this but I just have to say that the great Creator sure frigged things up. My eyelashes are barely visible even with caked on mascara and here sits Adam with lower lashes thicker than my hair..and it looks like a double row of top lashes. And this seems to be a truth throughout the universe…men just have better eyelashes. Bummer…bummer…bummer!!

  • suebrody

    Still no mouse, and Best Buy has closed. Sadness…I will go tweet and come back in a bit. Happy New Adam Year! Woot!

  • MelP75

    Yay!!!!!!! I’m so excited to hear the new single but unfortunately I’ll be at work and won’t be able to listen until the evening. I’m going to try and sneak a listen during lunch. I’m so nervous to read everyone’s opinion on it but hopefully it will be mostly positive! :) So ready to dance my ass off!!!!!!!!

  • alison8701

    Will the 6:55 be for east coast also..i live in SC?

    I think it’s 9:55 for us, Shayna.

    Target carries mices, or if you dare WalMart. I’m going to be hating life if WalMart has an Adam CD with a bonus tract…to have to go there and shop (especially at 12:01 on the 23rd of November) will be hell for me…gag and gag. What I won’t do for my space alien.

  • sylverine

    “I hope Adam’s tweet about ‘Egyptian Lover’  is random and he is not hinting that his song is similar to that piece of crap. That is crap in it’s purest form. I am scared of his taste in music now. Haha.”

    Do you think he was giving us a clue, or mischievously trying to throw us off and scare us LOL?? Hope the latter, since this song is really awful…..

  • http://twitter.com/cara_lee pj

    I’ll eat a good brekkie if it’s really played that early! ;-) I’m guessing not. Ryan will keep us waiting. I’m hoping to listen. Either way, I’m sure I will hear it by lunch!

    Truthiness - ITA. I’m keeping the expectations grounded, and, in all honesty, I’m hoping for something in the vein of what I listen to everyday on the Top 40 stations – Britney, BEP, Lady Gaga, etc. Those songs are hardly the most brilliant or revolutionary or even good, but they are fun, and made to get people shaking their asses. I will be very happy if the song is able to make some traction on the radio and catches on beyond the AI bubble. It doesn’t need to be a smash, especially right off the bat.

    Wow – the day is fianlly here. It’s been a long wait. Wow.

  • alison8701

    I have a feeling that the song will be really shallow, poppy and overall, pretty crappy. But if it has a good beat… I still think it’ll do well. Really well, probably. Lady GaGa has had a meteoric rise, and all of her songs sound the same and are super dumb. but that’s popular right now.

    Oh Sue! I thought you had an actual pet mouse that died!! I’m so happy now that it’s just an electronic one!

    You folks are all making me very happy, because, yeah, i’ve got the “gosh I hope its good” butterflies too, but really I just think its moving and wonderful to see a bunch of grownups get so eager and excited about something–something that is completely self-less, and not tangled up in complicated grown-up RLives, but just pure fun. It is kid-like, like FHS said, to feel this uninhibitedly excited about something, and I think we’re all very delightful in our squeeing, because it really is as much about excitement for Adam as it is about our own excitement, and isn’t it just nice to have something coming up to look forward to that offers such untainted pleasure? Good, bad, or entirely frivolous, I’m just looking forward to it!

    I have a feeling that the song will be really shallow, poppy and overall, pretty crappy. But if it has a good beat’ ¦ I still think it’ll do well.

    I am not selfish, I know the best songs will be in the album, so I will be patient. A poppish radio-friendly, even dumb, song that can do half as well as lady gaga on radio and sales will be more than great! Thats all i can hope for him.

    Besides, he loves gaga. If his single is as shallow/dumb/insert critics as you wish, but has a beat like hers, at least he will love it. I know I will too.

  • SpenserJ

    Um, if ‘FYE’  is all over youtube and dl links start flying around asap because it’s not going to be on itunes tomorrow too (because that’d be expecting too much from RCA), won’t Adam’s sales be really hurt?

    It saddens me that we’re raising a nation of thieves with no respect for the intellectual and artistic property of others. Ugh.

    LOL, don’t be surprised if Adam’s call-in comes closer to the end of the show :)

  • midwifespal
  • alxsavage

    I’m so excited, we’ll finally get to hear what Adam’s music really sounds like! I really have faith in him.

    Tomorrow already was an exciting day for me, as I’ll be celebrating the closure of a month that has meant a lot for my career, now Adam’s single will be like the cherry on top! (Just like Adam likes it).

    On the other hand, that’s 8:55am central right? I’m in class at that time, and it never finishes early. I could pretend that I’m going to the bathroom, but it would be kind of weird to take my laptop with me, wouldn’t it? I guess I need a better plan…

  • Truthiness

    Those pictures of Adam in the sun definitely did NOT distract me from single nervousness. Yikes. Painful, just painful how pink his skin looked and I swear, his freckles looked purple. Baby needs to realize once and for all, the sun hates people with pale skin and red/blonde hair. Hatesssss them it does. Now besides feeling very ~nervous about tomorrow, I also want to send him a lifetime supply of SPF 60 sunscreeen.

  • http://kristentheyellowlab.blogspot.com/ Zsus

    You aren’t blind, eyeliner! #1 again. Thank you, Oprah! What’s cool is he hasn’t been any lower than #11 since his first day on the charts. So, he’s spent over a month in the Top 10, with a good run at #1 or #2. It must be awful to be so full of fail.

  • weareallinnocent

    If the single doesn’t meet expectations

    Expectations? Ha! I prefer to leave the canvas blank. That way, Adam can fill it however he likes and need not worry that he’s not painting inside the lines or by the numbers. And I save my brow the furrowing that naturally would occur if he were to miss my pre-painted mark. :-)

    Worked for the album cover, I’m sure it will work for this single too!

    I can only imagine how Adam feels right now. Wow! All the light in the world coming your way… Good luck to us all~

    Re: Amazon #1 – wonder how Adam feels about topping MJ? LOL j/k But it does surprise me that this has happened during the opening days of TII…. Very impressive, Mr. Lambert.

  • HotHotHot

    Um, if ‘FYE’  is all over youtube and dl links start flying around asap because it’s not going to be on itunes tomorrow too (because that’d be expecting too much from RCA), won’t Adam’s sales be really hurt?

    Which is why I would think it would be best for these songs to be released on a radio show as close as possible to having it avail on iTunes. Sure people will still steal it, but if it’s immediately available legally, maybe slightly less will.

    Just my non-music industry savvy thought on the subject.

  • Cate

    If Adam’s music turns out to be crappy, he can always cover Jordin songs at the fairgrounds.

    But I am very hopeful that his music will be everything he said it would be, especially given all the props from music peeps.

  • alaadam

    Has Adam been in the top 10 for Amazon sales for all 33 days? I thought he may have dropped to 11 for a couple of hours but not a whole day. Does anyone know?

    I posted the link to the article about digital downloads several days ago when I was looking up digital sales. The quote is representative, I believe, of 2007 so I imagine it has gotten worse.

    That is why the industry is taking such a hit right now…and if Kissfm is smart tomorrow they will put a blurb over the song at some point to discourage peeps from copying and downloading. I know they do this a lot with full songs that they stream.

    Life is so much easier when you don’t give a crap what other people think. I LOVED tfm. I LOVED the album cover and I’ll probably LOVE fye but I’ll reserve judgement until after I listen a few times. Do I care what others think? nope. Will anyone else’s opinions sway me one way or another? uh no. Adam is an artist whose vision and musicality really affects me. Only one other artist has affected me the way Adam has and that’s Freddie Mercury. I never doubted Queen’s artistic vision. Never doubted their music or their message. I’ve loved almost everything they’ve pressed into vinyl and what I haven’t loved I’ve liked. Freddie Mercury was a brilliant entertainer, singer and songwriter and Adam is my 21st century Freddie.

    Actually Adam’s appearing on Oprah seems to have helped Kris and Allison too as both their Albums have made huge gains on the Amazon Charts.

    Adam is #1 in Movers and Shakers, Allison #6 and Kris #10. Adam #1 in sales Kris #32 Allison #52

    Nice of Ryan to provide a time. I’ll be sure to tune in!! I really hope its a hit.

    Lots of songs are available for streaming before they go on sale. Live Like Your Dying was streamed well before it was up on iTunes. I had downloads of every song on DCTR before the album was released. I still bought it when it came out because I wanted to support David. (Indeed, I bought 2, to get different bonus tracks).

    Of course, that doesn’t mean casual fans would do that. Given the interest in this single, there would doubtless be a lot of downloading even if the single were to be up on iTunes within hours. Hopefully, enough people will like what they hear and buy the song anyway. Or at least buy the album when it comes out.

    Not going to happen. He’s committed to doing the first performance of his single for the AMAs. Since his album drops the next day, he couldn’t do Oprah before that and also do a performance on her show. So it’ll be after the album drops, hopefully a good few weeks before Christmas.

    Stop being logical. Pfffft. I’m trying to distract myself from ~nervous feelings. And he will probably be on Ellen the week following Thanksgiving. Oprah probably takes the week of Thanksgiving off as well, but if not, I wouldn’t mind that week after AMAs, album drops and before Black Friday. Yes, I know it’s just an impossible dream, but it’s mine, gosh darn it.

I don’t expect the bestest song ever, cause Idol rarely renders such, but I expect to like it as I have liked at least a few of the debut songs. Good luck Adam. I am sure he is stoked and that is just really cool to imagine the smile on that very beautifully handsome face.

    In every one of Adam’s songs/performance, there is always something I FLOVE. Sometimes it’s just a word (or a rawr).

    Like:

    “Nervous” in Mad World
    “that line” — you know the one I mean, in Feeling Good
    “and I told em about E-qual-i-ty” in live performance of Black or White
    “c’mon, c’mon, c’mon” and “rawr” in perf. of Play that Funky Music
    Ring of Fire in it’s entirety :-)

    I could go on and on, but I know you all get it!

    For Your Entertainment might be my new favorite song tomorrow… might not be. But I know without a doubt there will be moments I can live on until I discover which songs on Adam’s album really connect for me.

    However, I am freakishly excited to hear, as Lyndsey Parker describes… “Adam open the song with the audacious declaration: “I’m here for your entertainment!”

    I’m betting on — new favorite song… just for the record! :-)

    This is the “Movers and Shakers.” It’s based on how much they’ve moved up the chart. In other words, if you are at 1,290, but move up to 210, you can be #12 on Movers and Shakers. Adam is currently #1 all around. Kris is somewhere around 35, and Allison is still pretty low. But, she had a drastic move-up. Kris still isn’t doing well on Amazon.

    I am always optimistic before I hear new music for every artist — well except for Miley! It makes life a bit more fun!

    But since it a Dr. Luke track with some vintage beats on it, and based on Lyndsey’s description, I am expecting it to be electro/pop/dance.

    “Entertainment” – The default title track and statement of intent, masterminded by Dr. Luke (Katy Perry) and Claude Kelly (Britney Spears, Kelly Clarkson), Adam opens this one up, Rocky Horror-meets-Robbie Williams-style, with the audacious declaration: “I’m here for your entertainment!” And he ain’t kidding. This is an ultra-caffeinated party-starter (imagine if Mika, Sam Sparro, and Kevin Rudolf had a threesome that resulted in the conception of a glittery alien baby…if you dare), and it’s just begging to be remixed by everyone from Calvin Harris to the Neptunes to Justice–even though it sounds like a shiz-hawt remix already, as is.

    By the way one of the performers at tonites concert was smokey robinson and.he sang tracks of my tears. I know it is sacriligious, but I like adams version better

    I liked the bits we got to hear when Adam was in rehearsal with Smokey best of all. Is Smokey even able to really sing this the way he used to? I would think he would have lost the upper end of his falsetto as he got older.

    if you have an iPhone, a Blackberry or an iTouch, you can use the iheartradio free app to listen to Ryan’s show. After download the app, go to All City and select Los Angeles, you’ll find KISS FM.

  • alxsavage

    Well, let me try to be more positive about Adam’s single. Y’all’ll like it. I’ll try to listen to it with an open-mind. I don’t really like electro music.. but.. it’s exciting for you guys. A taste of what’s to come. I remember when the Killers released ‘Human’  at midnight’ ¦ exciting times. but I don’t really care for that song.

    You’re right! I guess few fans keep the first single of an artist as their favorite tracks from an album.

    I had this same kind of expectations some months ago while waiting for U2′s “Get On Your Boots” at midnight, now I don’t really care that much for it either, but it made me happy then, even if it wasn’t the greatest thing, so I’m just expecting to feel the same kind of simple, pure joy, just for the sake of it, in a few hours courtesy of Mr. Lambert :) .

    I think I’m going to watch Adam’s performances from AI to celebrate this moment. :-)

    There is quite a contrast in covers between the two. I bet some peeps like Take One better-just for the cover. Hopefuuly. they are buying both!

    Hello guys, just wanna wish you all a great day with FYE looming over your ears today.

    I’ve been a proud mama exhilirating the last few weeks (eps so the last few days) for the good things happening to the other guy, and the feeling was divine, so here I am wishing you all the same feeling.

    Looking forward to Adam’s FYE and your reactions.

    Enjoy – have a blast.

    I hope Adam’s keeping a journal. Many exciting things have happened
    to him this year. There are so many “behind the scenes” things I’d love
    to know about. He needs to write a book that I need to read.

    BeckyMD. thanks sooo much for the heads up on the iheartradio app. How did I live without this? I’m listening now.

    Also, like someone posted above, I won’t be shocked if the single is dreck, I’m just reeeeally hoping it’s at least “commerically viable dreck”.

    Yep. Optimism as a revolutionary act.

  • Squirrely

    Britney’s 3 is very catchy

  • aa618892

    Gurys I am not going to be able to listen to Ryan’s show. Will this be recorded or Youtubed here? I can’t believe I am going to miss it

  • Dallas

    What to expect from this first single… dancey, poppy, electro perfect for remix? I think there will be many who are not prepared for this sound. I just listened to a snippet of Space Cowboy’s My Egyptian Lover. Wondering if this is the direction he went with this first song so that it is current and will run up the charts. If so, I see pearl clutching ahead.

    I remember when I first heard LGaga’s Poker Face, I did not like it at all. But, after I heard it played 500 times in one day, it became like OMG I LOVE THAT SONG. LOL. So peeps, just be prepared for a Top 40 type of single that you may need to listen to a few times before you FLOVE IT!!!

  • nnadinola

    I’ve noticed that Luv has not been online..she did say she had swune flu, I hope she is okay

  • lucy

    OK..OK.. I am really, really curious and you guys have all the answers. Has any other idol had their single debuted on Ryan’s show?

    Well, it’s been a long time, but I don’t think anybody’s answered this, so … I’m pretty sure that several have. I know for certain that Elliott debuted Wait for You there. Really helped that song get traction, without a doubt (which was a whole different ball of wax in his case, because of his indie status — he really needed the boost — and Wait for You became one of the top pop songs of the year, an amazing feat for an indie single.)

    Timbaland Moves ‘Shock Value 2′ to December
    http://showbiz.peacefmonline.com/music/200910/30328.php

    Powerhouse producer/rapper Timbaland has pushed back release date for his new album “Shock Value 2″ from November 23 to December 8. There hasn’t been any explanation in regard of the pushback just yet.

    The album was supposed to go head-to-head with Adam Lambert’s “For Your Entertainment”, Rihanna’s “Rated R”, Lady GaGa’s “The Fame: Monster” and 50 Cent’s “Before I Self Destruct” in November. On the new date now, it is set to face off Snoop Dogg’s “Malice N Wonderland”, Robin Thicke’s “Sex Therapy” and Usher’s “Raymond vs. Raymond”.

  • heartforadam

    Good morning, everybody…wow, it’s less than two hours before we get to hear the new tunes. So exciting, yet nervous. I just hope, like Adam always said, that everybody will like it. Yea, at this point, I don’t care if I like it or not, I just hope everybody else will.

    I love the single cover !!!!!!! FIERCE!!!

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/Valilac1 VAlilac

    Presenting’ ¦.

    The cover for Adam Lambert’s new single, which will be premiering today.
    This image is noticeably different from his ultra glam album artwork, which was met with some harsh criticism.
    The single cover is definitely less campy and much more edgy.
    It’s very Rihanna Russian Roulette.
    We like it!
    What do U think????

    http://perezhilton.com/2009-10-30-new-glambert-2

  • Squirrely
  • larchcat

    just checking in . .pretty sure Adam tweeted that the Rabbit Hole song would be an itunes bonus track hence not listed here.

    @LaurelG
    And I hope it’s infinitely better than Space Cowboy’s My Egyptian Lover. That song is siiiiick, but in a swine flu kind of way.

    LMAO

    Yeah, but AL tweeted yesterday how much he loved it… just thinkin’ ahead here, preparing for the new sound, just in case

    WOW. If that is the single cover I am stoked. ( At first I thought it was a play on Rihanna’s cover by some jokester over at PZHilton.) But I love it and that is what I call fierce, edgy and a big F YOU if you don’t like my music!!! LOL

  • LaurelG

    The single cover is total WIN!

  • larchcat

    Yes single cover is excellent. YAY

  • Squirrely

    Actually, re reading Adam’s post – I think DTRH will only be on itunes

    and ‘Down the Rabbit Hole’  (iTunes bonus track)

  • ilovekrisallen39

  • jill16

    I love the single cover! Why oh why Adam, couldn’t that have been your album cover??

    Wow, some of those songs are really long.

    I can’t wait to hear the song, how much longer??

  • larchcat

    Wait a second, Perez Hilton got the single cover before anyone else?

  • Studio57

    If I Had You and Fever are new!

    That cover IS HOTTTTTT!

    It just reaffirms my belief that Adam knew exactly what he was doing with the album cover. The guy knows the difference between camp and avante garde.

  • Kirsten

    The single cover is 10 gazillion times better than his album cover. That is fierce.

    Granted, I’ll deduct a couple of points for that “Bubble-Gum Vending Machine” set of rings he’s wearing (I don’t care how expensive they are in real life) and it does end up looking even more like Rihanna’s cover than his cover does, but it least it looks somewhat artistic and not tacky.

    If that’s his single cover, it’s a thousand times better than that album cover.

    I can’ believe I’m listening to Ryan’s show on KISS.FM. I think I just lost a few more brain cells.

    Good luck Adam.

  • TXArchitect

    “I’ve noticed that Luv has not been online..she did say she had swune flu, I hope she is okay”

    When my DD who is Luv’s age had swine – she NEVER RAN A TEMPERATURE – but had a deep hacking cough. She sleep NON-STOP for seven days … I had to wake her to force fluids…

    65% of the kids in her private school were out with H1N1 at one point … and the symptoms were all over the map (but NO ONE seemed to have the full set of “typical” flu symptoms – yet all tested positive when given the nose swab test for influenza “A” – 95% of which are swine).

    Every single Mom I spoke with noted the ONE SYMPTOM they all shared – they slept like the dead for at least Five Days. Some don’t appear that ill – but it saps their strength.

    If Luv has swine – she’s sleeping it off.

    Hope she’s dreaming of Adam and when she wakes up – it will be just like Sleeping Beauty -

    Except she’ll get her first single – instead of a kiss – from Adam.

    Seemed like people will like the single cover much more than the album cover, it will be compared to the album cover a whole lot. But will it be talked about in the media? Will it generate all thouse buzz? Compare to the album cover, I guess it is kind of tame? To clarify, I like it, it is fierce! Can’t pass those eyes.

    They both have FYE on the front so it can be interchangeable on an ipod. I want both myself.

    It’s a much much better cover to represent Adam Lambert and his music. However, controversy is what attracts attention and many times drive sales.
    In all cases, the music is what counts the most. If it’s good enough then I will buy his CD and promote it to my friends.
    Can’t wait to hear his first single. Looks like TFM is just a bonus track.

    Interesting thing about the cover: I’ve heard several people who barely know of Adam (never really watched AI) telling me about hearing about the cover on the web. It definitely got people’s attention who wouldn’t even be following Adam otherwise.

    One friend of mine emailed to say “the cover is weird”. Two emails later she said: “But it’s made me interested in what his album will be like.” I think it has done its job :-)

  • http://mamadeb.livejournal.com mamadeb

    The single cover is, indeed, beautiful and fierce and iconic and all of that. I love it. It’s what I would have expected from an Adam album cover.

    And if it had been the album cover, it wouldn’t have generated 300 news articles, much less made the WSJ or CNN. There would have been some in-bubble squeeing and that would have been that.

    Love it or hate it, the real cover did its job well.

    FYE is Number one on Amazon in Bestsellers, and Rock and POP AND Movers & Shakers AND New Releases !!! It’s up 700%! Thank you Oprah! I guess that cover is really hurting sales.

    mamadeb: I read that somewhere about the album cover. 300 news articles AROUND THE WORLD! A video was on my comcast home page for 24 hours. It was POSITIVE! At the end the reporter said, “That’s Adam Lambert for you”. It’s funny how Adam’s name is standing on it’s own now. (no American Idol or runner-up title)

    The single cover is great! It only accentuates his contrasts – its the opposite of the cover.

    It doesnt standout in a shelf or in amazon page like the cover. Perfect for the single! Cant wait for the music!

    Nah Perez sites her cover cause she’s wearing the same type of ring things, but I think hers are COVERING her body. IDK I haven’t looked at her cover very hard but when I saw the ring things it reminded me of her cover too.

    The single cover is soooooooooooooooooooooo much better than the CD cover, even with its resemblence to Rhianna’s. But I am a little bummed be cause I was hoping against hope that they would make the CD cover into the single cover and launch a better one for the CD.
