It’s time for our September chat thread. Hopefully this will be the final relatively quiet month before Adam’s new single is released. As always, please keep the posting guidelines in mind, and welcome any newcomers. Enjoy!

    nkd when I read Eggplant and Laces I immediately sang it to the tune of “My Favorite Things”. Here is a slightly extended version:

    Eggplant and Laces and glitter on lashes
    High hair and dyed hair and black porn mustaches
    Eyes the color of the sky in the spring
    These are a few of my favorite things!

    When he’s absent
    When he delays
    When I’m feeling sad
    I simply remember my favorite things
    and then I don’t feel so bad…

    Okay, it’s early…forgive me….

    OMG !!! adamized !!!
    Love your Eggplant and Laces of “My Favorite Things” tune. Thank you very much.

    Now I can’t get it out of my head. Good thing.

    I was so depressed that I was going to ask nkd and everybody to post any photos of eggplants, zebra pants, peaches pants and tigger pants. And then came your Eggplant and Laces song. Grin

  3. adamized says:

    asifclueless thank you!

    Off to work. Have a great day everyone.

    Please feel free to edit and/or add your own favorite things to the song.

    adamized, that was fricking BRILLIANT! Thank you! Grin

    I so want to get to the point where I can roll my eyes and say enough already with that song when it comes on the radio every ten minutes.

    Yes, and NOT because it is tedious like – ahem – WWFM…not that I ever had that opportunity, given that it didn’t play here. Frown I know a lot of peeps loved it, but it is definitely my least favorite on the FYE album. I think his first single needs to be broadly loved, uptempo; a ballad is fine, but not lugubrious like WWFM. Just my opinion and not intended to denigrate anyone else’s opinion about WWFM, I am only making the point as it concerns new music.

    Okay, someone else will have to write the lyrics, but I totally heard “Crimson and Clover” as the tune for “Eggplant and Laces”…(speaking of which, there is another lugubrious song, IMHO).
    I like adamized’s take on it better, though. Smile

    “Plan, love, create” … exactly. A perfect life balance.

    (nekkid, you don’t have to be 30 if you don’t want to. I remember you told us that you had a hurricane birthday a few years ago, too, so you must have only been actually 28 before, right? LOL )

  5. turquoisewaters says:

    Happy Birthday, nkd!
    Adamized, your song is sensational!

  6. milwlovesadam says:

    Love the song adamized! So funny and so true. Hmmm. Eggplant (ahem) and laces ( bigger ahem) two of my favorite things this past couple of years I’ll tell ‘ya!

    Happy 29th!

  7. Ron says:

    Hello and Good Morning on your special day, nkd!

    HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY :!:

    … and many more!

  8. nkd says:

    Thank you all for the birthday wishes!
    adamized, I love love your song! I’ll never listen to that song again without a grin!
    Roses, eggplant, “Favorite Things”, stairs, what else has taken on new meanings?

    Why the hell do I have to be the one to turn 30?!!! I ain’t gonna!!! Wink

  9. nkd says:

    Yes, I did have a hurricane birthday 3 years ago. Hurricane Ike. Look it up! So I get to take off a year!

  10. cwm says:

    Happy Birthday, nekkid!! I hope it’s fantabulous!

  11. dcglam says:

    Just chiming in for a minute here with a very special birthday greeting for a very special gal…..

    Mwah — Have a beautiful 30th? birthday, nkd! Smile

  12. ultimathule says:

    That song is so clever, adamized – Adam should use you as his lyricist.

    And Happy Birthday, nekkid – hope it’s a wonderful day.

    (I’ve decided not to have any more myself – family has strict instructions to completely disregard that day – this is getting ridiculous.)

  13. luval says:

    JOJOSIE…if you’re around, I’ll post a picture of Adam jr. if you want.

  14. nkd says:

    Thank you for the birthday wishes, Kradamour, adamized, asif, turquoisewaters, mils, Ron, cwm, dcglam and ultimathule!
    I love our little family here!

    dcglam, thank you for the picture! I knew that he was blowing that kiss to me! Smile

    Well, ummm…. that was pretty wild.
    I’m surprised Adam hasn’t tweeted about it, yet. Maybe he has, and I’m just not aware. Wink

  18. JOJOSIE says:

    Luval, yes I’m here so bring on little Adam. Happy birthday nkd. Just remember the alternative to having birthdays isn’t great so enjoy and embrace each one. I wonder if Adam even realizes how much fun, friendship and of course music he’s brought into our lives. I know I’m having more fun and adventures than my friends. None of them have lots of 29 yr old friends and one who has a life sized Adam or one that writes cute songs or one that makes list or several who write epic reviews and one who dress in a fashion that rival Adam and so on and so on.

  19. luval says:

    Ok, JOJOSIE…for only the second time here is always 27 year old Adam Jr. for our visual (and listening if you play WLL from AI while viewing) pleasure…

    oops..sideways…but he’s 6foot 2 inches!!

  20. nkd says:

    This is too funny! Remember how Tokio Hotel fans kept complaining that Adam is copying Bill Kaulitz…?

  21. cher says:

    Happy happy happy birthday Nekkid!!!! Enjoy!!! Still thinking about the fajitas and wondering where I can get some here. Frown

  22. nkd says:

    Thank you jojosie! Thank you cher!

  23. luval says:

    nkd…that pic is a hoot! It doesn’t look like Bill Saulitz but Chunky says it is.

    And may I publicly acknowledge nkd’s birthday too! Hope you’ll get a party and celebrate. If not there’s always a party here! Smile

  24. floridagirl says:

    Happy happy birthday nkd!!! I hope that your day so far has been an extra special one and that it keeps getting better!

    And yes, nkd, in dcglam‘s picture, he is blowing that kiss to you. I was there and he told me so… Smile

  25. dcglam says:

    @floridagirl….. LOL!

  26. luval says:

    Wait a minute…he was blowing the kiss to me!!!!! Smile

  27. floridagirl says:

    No, no, no, it was me actually but I never wanted you guys to feel bad. He saw me first! Smile

  28. floridagirl says:

    But since it’s nkd‘s birthday, we’ll tell her it was directed her way Smile

  29. luval says:

    ok floridagirl…shhhhhhh…she’ll never suspect…. Smile

  30. floridagirl says:

    yes, she’ll never see these posts. my lips are sealed! Smile

  31. Ron says:

    Dear sweet & silly luval and floridagirl. Of course it was me. Wink I might be a little, ahem, over-seasoned for Adam’s taste, but we do share the same gender. LOL

    P.S., BTW, OOT,: In case anyone who watches “True Blood” liked the closing credits song, here’s the full version below. Something about it … the beat?! … I can’t tell you how many times I’ve listened to it over and over again!

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bx-H9OcD9oE

  32. luval says:

    I somehow have to start watching True Blood. Am hoping A&E or some other station will pick it up like they did with The Sopranos.
    Yeah, Ron…it was you..NOT!!!! Smile

    Little blurb mentioning Adam in TVGuide. It says in regards to Majors & Minors. “There’s no pesky elimination in this new singing contest for kids, who learn the ropes while being mentored by a plethora of pop stars, including Adam Lambert, Avril Lavigne and Sean Kingston.” ….nice

  33. nkd says:

    I leave to have dinner and y’all are trying to steal my kiss! Shock

    I got my hair done, had lunch by myself, and then my husband took me to dinner, nothing really special, but this is one of the best birthdays I’ve ever had. I have never had so many birthday wishes from so many friends in so many different places. I love you all! Smile
    But don’t take my kiss!

  34. nkd says:

    Thank you for the happy birthdays floridagirl and luval! Smile

  35. jlurksacto says:

    nkd, knowing you are having a great birthday, and wishing many more for you! !

  36. nkd says:

    Thank you jlurksacto! I am so deeply moved by all of you today. Smile

  37. nkd says:

    Haha! These guys are on a roll today!

    I love the gif included below the video.

  38. Northern Spirit says:

    Boy, I feel as though I’ve been gone a long time from here. It’s good to be back amongst you all, although I haven’t been too far away, really, just in the other thread, Ste Agathe, which I finally finished reading in its entirety last Friday. What a joy to read and re-live the fabulous weekend we had. I’m still debating if I should leave my own recap (of what?) there, but the longer I wait, the fainter the memories become, but perhaps that’s the best way to filter out the noise.

    nkd: I hope you have had a wonderful birthday today. I’m a virgo, too!

    Had dinner with Ron, KDD43, Milkywayfairy, Doreen and TLKC on Saturday in Toronto. We always have such a wonderful time together. And you should have seen Ron!…he looked mahvelous. Stunning suit.

    So we have to wait a bit longer now to hear Adam’s new album. I’m okay with that. I’m enjoying the downtime, but hope that doesn’t meant that his next tour will run in the winter time. It will be difficult for many of us in the north to travel during this time.

    eywflyer,this obviously reveals my ignorance but with regard to what you mentioned on the previous page:

    I still think this can only hurt album sales, because of the passage of additional time since FYE (now guaranteed to be over 2 years between albums which can really hurt Idol alums), and releasing it in the slow winter sales season. By the time this album drops, there will have been two full AI seasons since Adam was on the show, with a third season underway. That’s an eternity in AI terms –

    why does Adam’s next release and success have to be compared or discussed in terms of AI. Can’t he make a clean break from AI?

  39. Kradamour says:

    Damn he’s adorable (Adam, that is). I’ve watched that gif about a dozen times…okay, back to go watch it some more….

    (So glad you are enjoying your birthday, chérie! Very hard to believe that someone only 29 years old is going to be a grandmother in less than two weeks!)

  40. ultimathule says:

    True Blood – “And When I Die” – the brilliant songwriter, Laura Nyro – this song and so many more. Love her own recordings as well. Hope you all do, too.

  41. nkd says:

    (So glad you are enjoying your birthday, chérie! Very hard to believe that someone only 29 years old is going to be a grandmother in less than two weeks!)

    Shhhhhhhhhhhhh! (I am over-the-moon excited!)

    Thank you northern spirit! I’ve had a great day!

  42. Kradamour says:

    That was my thought, too, Northern Spirit. Adam’s career seems to have taken a turn onto its own route quite a while ago. I know that to the uninitiated, he is still that gay guy from Idol, but those people had a chance to be fans and passed on the opportunity. His headlining tour, the lengthy international leg, his hugely extensive charity work…these things are all very un-Idol (IMHO, but I don’t really know anything about Idol. And maybe that is the point. I am a loyal Adam fan, but Idol doesn’t mean anything at all to me.)

    Another member of the virgo sisterhood! Welcome, Northern Spirit!

  43. Ron says:

    Hi nkd, it’s 10:20! Too late to phone you?! I wouldn’t want to wake Mr. Nkd. Smile

  44. Ceddies says:

    Happy Birthday, nkd. Hope it’s been a great day.

  45. Ron says:

    Hi Ceddies!! Good to see you! Hope all is well!

    nkd is busy not talking on the phone with me. Grin

  46. nkd says:

    Hi Ron! It’s ok to call if you like. I’d like! Smile

    Hi Ceddies! Thank you so much. I’ve had a really good day. I’ve felt loved, what’s better than that?!!

  47. nkd says:

    Ron, I was on my phone looking at the thread, and thought I posted a response several minutes ago. Guess not! Grin

  48. Ron says:

    Never mind, nkd. The mood has passed. Wink

    Call you in 1 minute.

  49. Ceddies says:

    Hi Ron and nkd (Waves to you guys)!!!!

  50. cgesq says:

    Hi All,
    I feel I’m late to the party, but I too want to add my birthday wishes to Nkd!! I hope you are having a great day.

    Funny story. My sister in law (who knows I am a giant Adam fan, and who has accompanied me to one Adam concert (Luval, she isn’t the problem companion!)) has a good friend (I’ll call her Ann.) One day last year, they were talking and Ann happened to mention that she had a good friend (I’ll call her Beth) who was a huge Adam fan. My sister in law immediately said said they had to get us together. Beth and I were each given each others’ email addresses and we contacted each other have gotten together a few times to compare Adam experiences and fangirl together. Anyway, this evening, the 4 of us got together for dinner and had a great time connecting over Adam and life. Its amazing to me how much we all have in common. Now the 2 non-uber fans (my sister in law and Ann) are going to join us for at least one concert on the next tour!!!
    Can’t wait Smile Smile
