That and Born to be Wild are my absolute least favorite performances from Adam lambert. I dont like him much in general, but yeah, he completely ruined these 2 songs. On a different note, he does a decent job with WLL and a surprisingly good job with mad world and feeling good, both which I really like. Seriously Timi, can you find a version of Change is gonna come which is inferior to lambert's from a song point of view ?

Fuck yeah, One and Cryin were terrible.

Also, Born to be wild is a catchy fun and feel good rocker. lambert ruined it completely, and it was no longer a fun rocker, but an un-listenable something.

Also, yeah, the singing is ok in change is gonna come. but he ruins it as far as a song goes.

What do you think about his live version of ACIGC? That was the one I was defending.

Just heard Shady. Very cool.

Those two are cool. I also enjoy "Trespassing" very much.



I agree.

As far as his new album... I thought the first half of the album was better than FYE, but pretty much all of the "power ballads" were real snoozers.

"Naked Love" and "Shady" are killer.

no one;s judging him technically here though. I said all those performances were terrible, and they were. NOT technically, I dont care about that. As mentioned, Dream Theater are about as flawless and brilliant as a band gets technically, but that's all they have going for them.

throwing this out there, he would look much better with the red hair and a fist up his ass

Not even as a performer, I mean specifically as a guy who can deliver notes and slide up and down scales with ease. His interpretation of a song and stylistic choices are what people commonly use to be like "yeah that was terrible" which is fine but if you're going to use it in a technical sense when ranking him as a singer you're missing the point of the lists. Plenty of vocalists aren't my cup of tea but I won't put them in last place just because I don't think they embody my particular envisioning of a rockstar.
