Thanks Silvia

So uhm.. I'm Nick from Sweden and I'm kinda ashamed of how I discovered Adam I actually watched Season 8 the first time because of Danny since I thought his audition was really good but ended up kinda disappointed as the season went along. What's more wack is that I didn't notice Adam at all during the first time(how I managed that I don't know)

About 2 years later I turned on a music channel over here and they played the IIHY video and I thought this is some good ish, I should look him up. So I googled him and noticed he was on AI Season 8. I decided to download the entire season all over again and this time I was paying attention to the right guy After his Satisfaction performance I was completely sold on this beast of a guy. I could really enjoy that season because I knew how it all turned out in the end. Just watching this guy hit it out of the ballpark every week

That's my short story

LOL, I noticed Adam the first time he opened his mouth to sing in the SF auditions. I'm ashamed to say Gokey was my 2ed favorite going into the show

Did you like Adam's RoF?

I thought it was alright. Don't love it, don't hate it. Probably my least favorite of his performances though

That performance made me the crazy Adam fan I've been ever since.

Men don't like that performance

Should I, shouldn't I, should I... Oh, what the heck, let's finally stop lurking. I've been reading the posts on this forum daily (if not hourly) for about a year, so... Here goes:

I follow the showbiz news somewhat actively and had heard of Adam Lambert, too. I didn't watch AI, but remember him being the runner up of some season. Anyway, one morning I was driving to work with my husband and they played WWFM on the radio. My husband turned the volume up and asked "who's this?", trusting I would know the artist, like I usually do. I told him "I think it's Adam Lambert" and I thought I should look him up and hear what the other songs sound like. Before I did that I heard Aftermath on the radio. A major wake up call for me! Whaaaaat, listen to those vocals, are they for real??!! By that time I had gotten so fed up with all of these autotuned and lip-syncing artists on the charts that I had my doubts.

During the time I didn't actively look Adam up I had realized that he has quite a strong fan base in my native Finland. Apparently a lot of people had watched his performances on AI. I was still very surprised to hear that he was coming to Finland for a gig. And then, there suddenly were rumors Adam had a fling with a certain Finnish guy, called Sauli. I didn't think much of it at first, but then I saw the pictures of Adam and Sauli together in LA and the look on Adam's face when he was looking at Sauli... and I realized it was for real. I got totally hooked on their love story and it also made me more interested in "Adam the Artist", too.

I think it must have been the WWFM live performance on Ellen, after his Grammy nomination, that made me look up all of Adam's American Idol performances on Youtube, you know, to be absolutely sure that the guy can really sing as well as it seems. And boy oh boy, could he ever! A Whole Lotta Love sealed the deal for me. I couldn't believe what I was hearing, his voice is absolutely phenomenal! I bought his album, been watching videos on Youtube over and over again - and have completely fallen in love with his voice and charisma.

So, that's my story, so far. I've set my camp here firmly and have no plans to leave.

KarDa welcome Nice story

I like this story too. I am like Silvia in that I fell in love with Adam the second I heard him sing. DAMN. Sometimes real life gets in the way, and I fall out of what is going on with Adam a little bit. Then I will go listen to something of Adam's (or his album) and it's like WHAM! it just hits me all over again. His voice is so amazing. I cannot comprehend how anyone can assert that he can't sing. His glamnation tour was amazing to see in person. I was so blown away - I will never forget hearing him sing Soaked in person - now there is a song that showcases those vocals. DAMN again

Welcome to all the new people

It's so exciting to see new faces in here!!!

Been listening to Adam for going on 3 years now and am more in love than ever. His voice soothes me like no other.

Stick around....this is a great group of people on this forum and we all adore Adam
