For Your Entertainment - Adam Lambert's Debut Album, If it's *Not* about Adam's album, *Don't Bring It In Here& Options

[claddagh182]

RCA streamed his album on MySpace & Facebook and Internet geeks ripped streamed songs to mp3.

For question why did they decide to stream it this early... I dunno.

I've been wondering what the advantage of leaking an album is. The people who know about the leak are probably already planning to buy the album. I suppose leaks must attract a lot of new fans, though, or else RCA, or any record company, wouldn't do it. Anyone care to shed some light?

Here's one for all the Canadian fans (I'm an ex-pat) ... The first few times I listened to Strut, I thought Adam was singing "let's take a 'maple leaf' vacation"!!! I thought it could be a nod to Canada's progressive human rights charter.

Strut

we're a complicated nation
and now we're in a situation
let's take a make believe vacation
and get yourself some validation

My friend said "of course" they streamed it. I was like and he said "everyone" does it. Albums gets pirated anyway - I was like

And he said: you are sooooooo behind times. I felt old, so old...

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH. I WISH it was "maple leaf".

Holla for Canada!

[Hand]

Could we all go to a maple leaf vacation please?

Bands stream their songs (sometimes even their full albums) on MySpace all the time but very rarely they stream full albums a week before they go for sale. It just doesn't make sense to me.

Leaks hurt the artist because people don't buy what they can get for free. I KNEW folks would figure out how to grab the album from the streams and make MP3s.

Somebody tell Adam about the maple leaf vacation lyric. I bet he will die laughing.
He said he does browse his twitter and is becoming more addicted.

These links are from AO threads. Wanted to post here, because more and more I watch them (such a chore ) more I see Adam's album with his music + pics as "this is me and my music- let's have fun". And his words about songs being fun and *healing* etc.

I just want to jump through my comp screen in Adam's hands

[vesi84]

I love this one! I like it better than the album cover! Like he's saying "Only for YOUR entertainment"!!!

[mercuriehg]

So I got an email today that my pre-order of the collector's edition has been mailed.

Did anyone else get this? My tracking number hasn't been entered into the USPS system yet, but I want to know BAD where they're shipping from! For those of us who live close to wherever they ship from, maybe people will get it in the mail before Monday!!!!!!

So jeeeeeeealous now

FYI, they hate everyone.

Actually I've seen a few positive comments on Adam... and they barely photochopped him while AI was on. They focused on Scott, Matt and Allison.

Oh, and where are all those Michelin Man picture haters now? I'm so glad that picture chosen for the back cover... People even laughed at Adam when he said the leaked picture was taken out of context. And the back cover doesn't look bad.

The pic on the back (although blurry) looks nothing like the Micheline man pic. Even what he's wearing doesn't look the same.

[HollyinCa]

Soooo gorgeous.

IKR? I thought it was kind of an obscure reference, but cool nonetheless. It could have fit within the context of at least one interpretation of the song. In the Strut thread, Sylvia has "maybelline vacation", instead of "make believe" (or maple leaf ).

Let's hear it for freedom of self-expression!

LOL, "maybelline vacation" vacation isn't mine. I had another in Fever I kept hearing "I'll give you my fck for fever" and then I raised the volume and he's just saying "Fuh, fuh fever...".

It was good while it lasted
