Adam-Idol14ab

September was a month full of surprises – Adam on Idol, Adam out and about and then to wrap up the month, the announcement of the UK and European Q+AL tour in early 2015. Can’t wait to see what October has in store! In the meantime, we’ll continue with the weekly walk down memory lane and revisit the summer’s concerts.

Enjoy the chat!

    Here is a vocal range chart that includes Adam. As you can see, his range is higher than Freddie’s, and most other male singers. Here in the US (!) he is known as one of the greatest singers. Shame the people who run BrianMay.com didn’t look for the range of THEIR OWN CURRENT FRONTMAN, but then, being higher than Freddie, maybe wouldn’t appeal to them. Shock Frown

    Also, some EXCELLENT reading here. This thread, started by a guy from the DDD who used to be a terrible enemy of Adam singing Queen, but was completely turned around by Adam’s lovely WWTLF in Kiev
    and is now a fan. Go figure!!!

    Good, ulti! You know, I’ve never understood why Adam is so little known in India, while being so loved in China, Vietnam, Korea, Japan and other Asian countries.

  6. HK fan says:

    I don’t really get that DDD chart…it looks to me that Adam has one of the smallest ranges according to that..am I not reading it right??

  7. ultimathule says:

    Looks like Freddie’s and Adam’s are the same number of solid colors, except FM can go five notes lower and Adam five notes higher?

  8. ultimathule says:

    See on the list – highest notes – Freddy Curci – do any of you remember him – from Toronto of Italian descent – sang for Sheriff and Alias – his recording of When I’m With You – one of the longest sustained notes – love his voice – have many of his songs with both bands.

    Adam’s “Red Velvet Diva” pic is on this if you can wade through all the other stuff. Saw her on TV live – not very good –

    Actually, HK fan, per The Range Place, which is more up-to-date and accurately documented, Adam’s range IS greater than Freddie’s.

    Adam Lambert
    Voice type: Tenor
    Sung vocal range: E2-B♭5

    This would add 6 squares to the left (one lower than Freddie) and 1 to the right, 4 higher than Freddie. A little over 3 fully usable octaves. WOW!
    Disregard all those shaded squares for some, they represent “unusable” or undocumented.
    Going to research what they have listed for Freddie.

    ETA: Freddie, from The Range Place
    Voice Type: Mercury Tenor
    Vocal Range: F2-F6
    HOWEVER, and this was a BIG however, almost all of the higher notes above what the DDD has as Fred’s documented range are in blue at The Range Place, which means non-modal, i.e. either non-sung or so different in tone as to be unusable. Clearly the creator of that thread trying to “embroider” the truth and add to the myth (according to a Q&A thread on the same site.)
    So, in truth, Adam has a greater documented usable full range than FM.

  18. riskylady says:

    What a shame! It took Brian’s guitar to make Love Kills palatable, but Adam’s version is so infinitely superior.

  19. luval says:

    Agree with you,

    riskylady

    about Love Kills. Wonder if RS ever heard Adam’s version. First there was Adam doing Rhiana’s Stay, then Adam doing Freddie’s Love Kills. Maybe others? Can’t remember. Don’t know what to say anymore. It’s like nobody but the “bubble” ever hears the ultimate, amazing, stunning versions.

  20. luval says:

    lol, “riskylady” is supposed to be bold, not b-quote. I’m tired. (that’s my excuse). Wink

    Looking at the vids posted here – that STL was a hoot – loved it all over again –

    Laterally about Adam: Jessica Lange sings Life on Mars (American Horror Story episode):

    http://www.vulture.com/2014/10/watch-jessica-lange-sing-life-on-mars-on-ahs.html

    Very Marlena Dietrich.

    Another indication of how much Ryan Murphy totally gets Adam.

  29. TLKC says:

    WITWIAL? Is there a particular reason you think Adam’s on vay-cay, ulti? Work is so busy at the moment, I hadn’t noticed that there are no daily pics.

    Maybe he is in the studio.

    Maybe Roger not coming? It only says Adam and Brian

  33. riskylady says:

    I would think Adam is getting ready (rehearsing) for his performance Monday at the ATT Live Proud event in the Highland Ballroom. (Of Kradison lore!)

    ETA: AL, shouldn’t this and the Nov. 4th Rock event be on our list of upcoming events? (Oops, Mrs. PITT intruding on my comment! These alteregos are hard to suppress!)

    Exciting that he and Brian will perform in LA! I’m thinking they must have won (fingers crossed) which will make some heads explode!!!

  34. ultimathule says:

    No reason to think vacay, TLKC – just noting his long (relatively) absence from twitter. Yes, probably working.

    And, luval – thanks for that great HuffPost article with the terrific vids – gonna send that one out to the troops. The tech one is so interesting, too.

  35. ultimathule says:

    TLKC – you said that Ryan Murphy gets Adam – is that because of the song Lange sang? Rarely watch TV so not up on any of the shows.

  39. luval says:

    Not sure what’s happening but twitter is saying the site adamlambertevents.com was deleted.

  40. ultimathule says:

    Yes – saw that, luval – no one seems to know what’s going on –

  42. luval says:

    I remember that the events site was gone once before…a couple of years ago? But then it came back. Maybe I’m dreaming???

    eta: was always going to print off all the events he’s had to show people that say “where has he been”? Never did, though. Hope it comes back.

  47. HK fan says:

    Has anyone brought the new Queen album…I haven’t….I just don’t have any interest in hearing old stuff with Freddie anymore, I just want Adams versions of the songs.
    What I would really like in my christmas stocking is a double album of all the covers Adam has done in concert with professional in the studio” sound…i.e shout, stay, IWBTLY, Love Kills, Red House, STL, Is this love etc etc…

  48. HK fan says:

    too right!!

    Jared Braden ‏@JaredBraden 6h6 hours ago
    If I had to say which pop singer has the most loyal fan base, it’d be @adamlambert. Hands down.

  49. ultimathule says:

    Agree about Neil, HK fan – and his personality didn’t help much. So different from Adam.

  50. ultimathule says:

    I’ll probably buy the Queen album – Brian seems so enthusiastic about it. And should be somewhat interesting – especially how Brian has guitared it up to make it more palatable musically.
