Does Anyone Really Care About Adam Lambert?- Page 2

I do. I think he's amazing (his range, his voice control, his showmanship, etc.) and definitely hope he'll end up in musical theater again. All the Idols end up there, so he probably will too, even though he doesn't know it.

I care about him. clearly he has amazing charisma which almost equals his talents. Unfortunately, AI chose to play games with him by putting him in the bottom 2 last night. Good ratings ploy to get even more people to watch (and vote, lol) next week. Like the voting actually means a thing.

The whole scam of AI is despicable, but I still watch for the entertainment value of it. There's no reason to worry about Adam having the career of his choice.

I think he looks scary without all the makeup.

I don't, personally, care for Adam. I don't care who wins AI. I have no idea how they would market someone like Adam. He is very caberet. Of the four left, Kris is the most talented, in my opinion. He can play different instruments, can arrange and write music. He sings pretty, and he's cute.

He's going to make a cd I would buy. I wouldn't buy any of ther other's cds.

My favorite has always been Danny. I'm not a fan of Adam at all. I also think Kris is an excellent contestant.

"I have no idea how they would market someone like Adam."

either Pop Rock (today's glitz glam hard rock) or Alternative Rock (less mainstream - though it would play to his extremely unique arranagements and range/voice)

Well hello, Charleston
Hello, Charleston
It's so nice to have you back where you belong
We thought you left, Charleston
When you were called TooDarn
And you almost destroyed A. Tveit's career
Oh...
What an obvious name, Charleston
Do you think this is a game, Charleston?
Looks like you'll never go away for good!

I just want Adam Lambert to miraculously enlist Craig Wedren to write his album for him. Then I'd care for sure.

Yes, BWW should seriously stop posting Adam Lambert news. We need more updates on Susan Boyle!!!!

Adam has also done techno/electronic/hip hop, surprsingly enough.

ala 21st century Boy George stuff. very odd stuff...

I had seem Adam perform a few times at a club/restaurant here in Los Angeles called Marks. He is excellent. He is the best thing on that Idol show right now. What I don't get is how that boring Goakey is on week after week. I always doze when he is on. He is so boring.

I hope Adam has a successful career doing what he enjoys. It just so happens I don't enjoy what he does.

I care about him He's amazing!

[RippedMan]

Posted: 4/30/09 at 12:33pm

Ew, I'll past. He has that look in his eyes like he knows he's great, and that's a turn off. I'd rather take someone humble over someone who thinks they're awesome because they can screech.

[DAME]

Posted: 4/30/09 at 12:37pm

He is great. He should have that look in his eyes. That Goakey has that look in his eyes too and he is boring. Actually.. that Goakey is the only one left of them I can't stand. If he wins he will be the worst selling recording Idol ever becausr there is nothing to him. As soon as his dead wife shtik got old.. so did he.

"It just so happens I don't enjoy what he does."

Singing?

Singing that will make him (along with the other AI finalists..) millions of dollars?


You're crazy, Mister Matt.

I think Adam is brilliant. I also really like Kris, followed by Allison.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Posted: 4/30/09 at 1:05pm

How is he crazy?

[broadwaycat3113]

Posted: 4/30/09 at 1:09pm

i also happen to think adam is brilliant.

He would have been huge in the early eighties, maybe fronting a New Romantic band from England. Now he just looks anachronistic.

[DAME]

Posted: 4/30/09 at 1:54pm

Maybe thatis his appeal to me? He is defintely the only one I will remember a year from now.

For AI, it's all about the money. They are not going to want to produce an alternative rock/glam rock sort of cd. They are looking for another Carrie Underwood/Kelly Clarkson/David Cook/Daughtry type that can sell a million copies of a cd.

I just don't think of Adam as the type that can do that.

Even David Cook's is more commercial than he would have liked.

Worst selling would have to be Taylor Hicks.

They should have quit with last year's winner.

Gokey is so boring he has to shout-sing to keep waking people back up during his performances.

"Gokey is so boring he has to shout-sing to keep waking people back up during his performances."

Well.. int THAT we defenitely agree.

[JazzSquare55]

Posted: 4/30/09 at 2:54pm

I beg to differ --- I acknowledge that Gokey is NOT a performer, but he is a brilliant vocalist and I'm honestly not sure how you can disagree.

His range (for someone who has such a darker tone) is outstanding and his voice sounds very mature. This is a good thing. He is also a brilliant improviser with melody manipulation; not always the easiest thing.

He will release a random Funk Rock/Pop (ala Tower of Power) album, enjoy some success, and then fade into the depths of Christian Praise & Worship music which is where he belongs. and will do very nicely!!

just like Matt Redman, Robert Seay, and MercyMe's lead singer., etc. etc.

I don't think he is a good vocalist at all. He is screachy and has some serious diction problems. His phrasing is also very dull.
