Single Cover Art for Adam Lambert’s Next Single – If I Had You

April 30, 2010 11 comments

ETA : Well, Adam himself just tweeted this! If this turns out to be the official single art, I LIKE!!!

This cover art was up on the AOL Radio blog post – Adam Lambert, ‘If I Had You’ — New Song!

If I Had You‘ is Adam Lambert’s third single off his debut album ‘For Your Entertainment.’ Penned by Max Martin, Shellback and Savan Kotecha (who have all written hits for Britney Spears, notably ‘If U Seek Amy’ and ’3′), the dance track is heavy with synth back beats and a catchy chorus…

Can’t say I’m too fond of this cover – Adam looks like he’s one of the Vampire overlords from Twilight or something ;-) What do you guys think?

Listen to “If I Had You (Album)”

*

ETA: Hey, Q102 has the radio edit of ‘If I Had You’ playing!!!

Listen to “If I Had You (Radio)”

*

Speaking of the song ‘If I Had You‘ though – I do hope this becomes a summer hit – I’m a bit iffy on this one – it has a great beat and is a fun song to dance to – and I liked it on first listen, but boys don’t do well with electronic dance tracks like this in the US, right? I can see it hitting in Europe, so hope Adam’s 3rd single does as well as Whataya Want From Me!

P.S. You can catch Adam’s video for People Magazine’s Beautiful People photoshoot HERE (YouTube version)!

Adam Lambert in Germany! (Part II)

April 29, 2010 2 comments

Next stop on Adam Lambert’s European promo tour is Germany! Adam greeted all his fans himself early in the morning with “Good morning Koln!” It’s a crowded schedule again for Adam, and you can check out his Germany comings-and-goings on this site!

For his Apr 29 promo, Monte has already tweeted that they had “played on Ard – Morgenmagazin” (a German morning show). Adam’s interview and performance of Whataya Want From Me is up on the station’s website! (FYI – Adam mentioned in his interview that he’s shooting the music video for If I Had You next week!) Adam is also scheduled to visit several radio stations (Radio Eins, Radio NJoy, Radio NRW). Then it was off to Berlin! (Adam – “Back in Berlin! Woohoo!”) – Adam was spotted arriving at Tegel Airport in Berlin by paps (via celebrity gossip).

For tomorrow, Adam will be visiting BB Radio, Viva Live (another Interview & Performance on TV – you can watch LIVE where he sang Whataya Want From Me), Radio 104.6 RTL, Radio Energy Berlin, and hold a web Chat (www.habbo.de). Longineu tweeted that they were also “ready to Rock OUT MTV Berlin Germany“! AND Monte tweeted that they also “pre-recorded yet another one of a kind version of Whataya Want From Me for NRJ Radio”.

Be sure to bookmark this post as I’ll be updating as media come in!

FREE E-Book Download – Star Wars: Lost Tribe of the Sith #4: Savior by John Jackson Miller

April 29, 2010 Leave a comment

So, how many of you have bought a Kindle? Well, time to fill it up with freebies!

(If you don’t have a Kindle, don’t worry, you can still read the free books! Just download the Kindle for the PC, Kindle for the iPhone/iPod Touch or Kindle for BlackBerry!)

So how about this freebie for Star Wars fans out there? The movies may be over, but the books based on the Star Wars universe are forever it seems. For a limited time, ‘Star Wars: Lost Tribe of the Sith #4: Savior‘ by John Jackson Miller is available for FREE download on the Amazon Kindle site. Just click here to download and save yourself $1.00.

If you don’t have a Kindle, ‘Star Wars: Lost Tribe of the Sith #4: Savior’ is also FREE for download from the Sony e-bookstore. Note that you would need the Sony Reader or the FREE desktop Sony Reader software to be able to read it. The book is also available on Barnes & Noble as a FREE download!

Book Description:

Twenty-five years ago the survivors of the marooned Sith ship Omen bloodlessly conquered the native population of the remote planet Kesh, installing themselves as overlords and transforming the primitive Keshiri civilization into a new Sith society. Letting nothing stand in his way -including his own brother’s life – Omen commander-turned-Grand Lord Yaru Korsin has ruled unopposed ever since. But now his days, and those of the ruthless Sith order on Kesh, may be numbered.

Revolt – and revenge – have been brewing in the hearts of the two women closest to Korsin. One is Adari Vaal, the once-outcast Keshiri who rescued the stranded Sith, aided their domination of Kesh, and now leads the secret resistance against them. The other is Seelah, wife of Korsin, widow of his murdered brother, and mastermind of the plot to assassinate the Grand Lord and seize power.

But have the comforts of a king and his own arrogance blunted Korsin’s cunning Sith instincts? Or is he ready to deal swiftly and mercilessly with treachery from any quarter? Enemies themselves, Adari and Seelah are unaware of each other’s destiny-altering gambits. They only know that there can be no turning back – and no escaping the consequences if they fail.

Allison Iraheta Performs at the Highlands I Create Music ASCAP Expo

April 29, 2010 1 comment

Allison Iraheta was one of the performers (with Chantal Kreviazuk, Raul Midon and Gordie Sampson) at the I Create Music Center Stage at the Highlands for the ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers) Expo last April 23. Watch as she sings her heart out for ‘Just Like You’ and ‘Don’t Waste the Pretty’! (although the vid / audio quality isn’t ideal)

She’s feeling pretty blessed and lucky these days – what with turning 18, moving into her own place, making lots of her own money, and a summer tour to look forward to with Adam – I would be too! I mean, what were you doing when you turned 18? (I was, am, a starving student!?)

Currently Listening to Adam Lambert’s ‘Can’t Let You Go’

April 28, 2010 13 comments

Listen to “Can’t Let You Go”

So, we’ve all been waiting for a leak of Adam Lambert’s last bonus track ‘Can’t Let You Go‘ from the international (UK) release of his album ‘For Your Entertainment’. And we have it finally! I love the vibe of this song … Adam’s vocal range (!!!) is to die for! And when he starts wailing like his heart is breaking … wowza! It’s a break-up song that we can all drink to, right? right?

… And I am still wondering why this or Voodoo or Master Plan or Down the Rabbit Hole all ended up bonus tracks. I’d have much preferred them over Sure Fire Winners or Aftermath for example…

** You can get your own legal copy by ordering the For Your Entertainment (EU Edition) (Incl. Bonus Tracks) [Import] (Amazon) **

ETA : **Apparently it’s cheaper to order For Your Entertainment (UK CD) (Amazon) from Amazon UK!**

LYRICS!

Guess it was not meant to be

It’s not as bad at it seems

It only burns when I breath

You saw the way that I felt

I’m better off by myself

That’s the tale that I’d like to tell

But it’s not that easy for me to say goodbye

Everything in me wants you back in my life

Can’t let you go

Can’t let you go

It feels like dawn of the dead

Like bombs going off in my head

Never a moment of rest

Nothing kills more than to know

That this is the end of the road

And I know I’ve got to let go

But it’s never easy for me to say goodbye

And everything in me wants you back in my life

Can’t let you go

Can’t let you go

Can’t let you go

Can’t let you go

Wish I could just run away

To have all your memories erased

Their constantly there haunting me, me, me, me, me

It’s never easy for me to say goodbye

And everything in me wants you back in my life

Can’t let you go

Can’t let you go

Can’t let you go

Can’t let you go

I can’t let you go

I can’t let you go

American Idiot (Broadway) Stars Perform ‘Wake Me Up When September Ends’ on Regis and Kelly!

April 28, 2010 Leave a comment

The Regis and Kelly Show is having a week-long promo for Broadway plays, and in this episode, they featured the newest hit on Broadway – Green Day’s American Idiot broadway musical which recently opened to rave reviews from the New York Times! The three stars of the show – Michael Esper, John Gallagher Jr. and Stark Sands – came on and performed a ballad from the show ‘Wake Me Up When September Ends‘. Very cool performance – liked it!

I’m planning on catching the show on Broadway one of these days, but in the meantime, I already snapped up the cast recording – Green Day’s American Idiot (The Original Broadway Cast Recording) and I LOVE it! Sure, it gets some getting use to with someone else singing Billie Joe’s songs – but these Broadway singers are really really talented. And these don’t come across as show tunes at all – preserving that rock opera aspect from the album. I’m very happy with this cast recording.

Check the Original Cast Recording out on iTunes and Amazon! Totally worth it!
