Another month has arrived, the last one before Adam’s new album “Trespassing” will be released! February will hopefully see Adam’s lead single “Better Than I Know Myself” continue to gain airplay and sales. There should be a bump from the music video which is expected early this month. Meanwhile Adam will likely continue working on promo events in preparation for his upcoming album release, which is slated for March 20 here in the US. Perhaps with more promo being done ahead of the album release this time around, the next tour can begin by this summer? Enjoy the chat!

Update 2/4/2012: BTIKM music video was released Thursday night, feel quite certain we’ll be seeing plenty of it on VH1 in the next few weeks!

    The BTIKM is at 12 overall…YAY

  2. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    Those Byron Cooke interviews are so cute – and they both look so much better than in their first meeting! Byron really holds his own with Adam, which is hard to do, in the cute and witty department. High Five!

    Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! As Charles Schulz so eloquently said:

    “All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.”

    Happy Valentine’s Day!
    BTIKM video is holding steady at #5 on iTunes. I’m crossing my fingers that it can beat Queen Adele and LMFAO!!!
    Do we know in what other countries BTIKM vid was available for download?
    ….
    #2 in Canada!! Yay!
    #1 in New Zealand! Yay,Yay!

    Yes, HKfan – I sometimes get the underlying current from some in the music biz that he’s still not quite a legitimate performer – think that attitude has dissipated quite a lot (especially since the EMA’s), but it lingers – will take more time for some djs/pds to come on board, I believe.

  8. JOJOSIE says:

    Thanks gals for the Byron Cooke clips. Those put a smile on my face that’ll last all day. Adam really is looking good these days, like he said in a prior interview that this is a time in his life when his career and personal life are both on the same level. He’s excited about both. Haven’t downloaded the video yet but will later this afternoon as DH and I are doing lunch at a nice restaurant for Valentines day. Heart Happy valentines day to you all. Celebrate with love.

  9. Oksana2000 says:

    I think that we will get second single sooonish….
    And no album on March 20.
    I can wait.
    I have a patience of an elephant..

  10. Oksana2000 says:

    Do you remember how high other Adam’s vids went on iTunes? I’m pretty sure that WDYWFM and IIHY hit #1 spot.

  11. loveroftalent says:

    YAY!!!!#3 on iTunes…So happy it’s doing so well….

    I will be waiting very patiently for the album too….Must be a good reason if there is a delay….

  12. Kradamour says:

    Sigh. Byron Cooke interview posted and I am in a school with every interesting site blocked. I have no idea how this website slips through the net, but I am so grateful to at least know what is waiting for me when I get home! Heart

    Happy Valentine’s Day, peeps! I really, really loathe Valentine’s Day but am so amused by the new “anti-valentines”…saw one the other day with a photo of a plumber leaning under a sink with the expected buttcrack shot, he has a heart tattoo just there, and the caption was something like “Don’t you just hate it when Valentines day is in your face no matter where you go?”. Smile

  13. loveroftalent says:

    Does someone have the link to itunes to see where BTIKM stands now…Thanks

  14. Oksana2000 says:

    loveroftalent, no link, you have to open iTunes.
    Still #3

    Hey Hi Oksana2000

    Did you see Adam had on fingerless gloves at Priscilla last night?

    Just bought video!

  23. nkd says:

    Adam was on with Larry Flick this morning. Some tweets.

    @CindyM421: Larry Flick.said 3/20 and then corrected himself to Spring. Adam said still working on some late additions to albums

    @CindyM421: Larry Flick compared him to Adele. Adam talking about peeps trying to take advantage

    @CindyM421: Playing acoustic music again. Adam says he’s learned so much, so many people wanting things that he’s become more wary

    @CindyM42 he didn’t go into specifics, said that a few things had come late and he was really excited and they will make the album even

    @CindyM421: greater. Larry Flick heard some songs and said they were amazing and he was so relieved he didn’t have to lie

    @CindyM421: Asking about Queen, said he promised to keep a secret and something is on the horizon. But he has his own album.

    @CindyM421: A said it has nothing to do with that, are you in kindergarten? Talks about last album some songs were how high can I sing

    @CindyM421: This one isn’t that, its all coming from the music. Talking about idol and LF says you didn’t win but won anyway

    @CindyM421: Talking about Simon that its the talent that rules the show. Talking about idol stigma and grocery store patrons kinda stuff

    @CindyM421: He’s creating music from the inside out. They’re working on some stuff in the next few days with Adam for fans.

    @CindyM421: Interesting that he talked about getting some level of success, its hard cuz even social situations become business ops for

    @CindyM421: People and sometimes just going out, he’s like really? I don’t want to tweet about your product, I just wanna chill

    @CindyM421: Said songs are universal but his community is definitely part of the songs. Talked about Nile and Sam Sparro.

    @CindyM421: Oh and LF at the start kept saying how gooood Adam looked. Smile

    @CindyM421: LF also said be people excited about the Queen thing cuz Adam is the only singer that could do the songs justice

    Adam Lambert News @AdamBertDaily
    Mapril is real. No release date yet. Album is not finished

    So I wonder if the collaboration that he was hoping for came through.
    He seriously needs a set done by date or we may never get this album! Sheez!
    I want him to have what he wants on the album, but this could be endless.
    But I’ll wait. I have no other choice, huh.

    Valentines night meal with @shoshannastone. Pasta, wine and @adamlambert new album as the soundtrack. It couldn’t be more perfect.

    @MeganCarver
    For all the #glamberts, I’m listening to Adam’s new album; It’s properly brilliant. Outstanding tracks are Cuckoo, Trespassing & Shady.

    He laughed when I told him I dispense adam crack on my blog. He said “I like that adam crack”

  29. eywflyer says:

    Album delayed further. Well.

    There are a few different ways to interpret this.

    – RCA has realized that BTIKM is not going to be a big enough hit so they need time to push a second single before the album release.

    – RCA has decided that the album needs more radio friendly material and therefore is making some changes to the track list.

    – There are amazing additional collaboration tracks that are just now getting done.

    – Adam and/or his management and/or RCA has cold feet about releasing the album, realizing how crucial this album is to Adam’s future prospects.

    Amazing to think that at one time we thought the album would be released in time for the holiday shopping season.

    If we optimistically assume a mid April release, it would seem that any tour could not start sooner than late August at the earliest, after the Summer Sonic event in Japan.

    BTIKM adds – with half 2/3 of the monitored Top 40 panel reporting (104 of 156), just one add so far (WKZL Greensboro). The remainder of the panel should report by this evening.

  30. luval says:

    Whatever happened to RCAed?

  31. luval says:

    Maybe Bowie contacted him and wanted to collab with him. Smile

  32. dcglam says:

    I must tell y’all that my new favorite radio station is B101.5.
    They played BTIKM today for me to hear without my even having to request!!! I swear the DJ must be a Glambert. After playing the song, she went on to pimp Adam’s new album entitled Trespassing. She also made the statement (and I’m doing my best to get this just right) that American Idol has definitely released some superstars from its show. This lifts my spirits and gives me a bit more hope for BTIKM and radio for Adam.

  33. dcglam says:

    Oksana, I went over to Charity Water to read your very sweet
    (and pimping Wink) comment. LOL
    I am hoping you have a happy Valentine’s Day as well! Heart

  34. luval says:

    anyone know how itunes is doing?

    Maybe RCA is waiting to see if the song picks up after VH1 & itunes video release. And eyeflyer, didn’t you say the next couple of weeks will probably tell?

    I called to request BTIKM on my local cumulous (spell?) station yesterday. The dj said “a new song? I’ll see if I can find it.” Of course never heard a thing.

    And listened to Byron Cooke interviews, I thought Adam seemed “out of sorts” and of course Cooke was a fanboy wreck.

  35. dcglam says:

    eywflyer… As always, your analysis is right on the money. I feel that your #2 and #3 options are the ones that are especially in my mind right now. Yes, they may be thinking that the album needs more radio friendly material and is making some changes to the track list. I would like to think that the delay was totally caused by “amazing additional collaboration tracks that are just now getting done.” Smile

  36. Oksana2000 says:

    BTIKM vid is currently #2 on iTunes!
    Crossing my fingers and toes for video reaching #1.
    Do we know sale numbers for videos? I hope that this and Vevo payout will offset cost of making that vid.(At least part of it) I found it mindboggling how much does it cost to make the simplest video.
    dcglam,aww, thank you … Heart

  37. dcglam says:

    nkd…. Thank you for all the goodies you brought to us today (and always). There are so many that I truly have a tough time keeping up all of them. Mwah…. Kiss

  38. dcglam says:

    Last post here for now…..

    I’m noticing that Adam’s picture location on the VH1 voting site keeps switching places. Any meaning to that???
    For today’s voting….

  39. eywflyer says:

    The Top 40 panel has now fully reported, and BTIKM only received two adds this week Frown

    WKZL Greensboro
    WXLK Roanoke

    After a total of 13 Top 40 adds during the previous two weeks, to get only two adds this week is disappointing.

    The song is actually tracking ahead of WWFM’s pace on Hot AC adds, but is far behind on Top 40, and I don’t think the sales numbers have been very good so far either. Perhaps that will change with the video now on Itunes.

    Luval, yep I think we are at a crucial moment for this song now. Momentum is clearly not there on Top 40, it’s going to have to perform very well in the next couple of weeks on Hot AC at the minimum.

  40. Oksana2000 says:

    I’m noticing that Adam’s picture location on the VH1 voting site keeps switching places. Any meaning to that???

    dcglam,I don’t think picture location has any meaning. This morning, when I was moving from browser to browser location was all over the place.

    As Charles Schulz so eloquently said:

    Sure hope you received some of that chocolate,Texas! In Love

    Thanks for your input, Oksana. That was pretty much my thoughts as well. Wink

    Happy Valentine’s Day everyone. Don’t love the day but love that we have such fun things to watch and hear! I loved the z100 interview and think that the Adam’s performance of WWFM and BTIKM have to be the best I’ve heard so far. He seemed so happy and comfortable and in the zone

  44. luval says:

    Hi Adamized! How did I miss it…the z100 interview? Is it posted here?
