I've limited myself to only listening to Let Me Down, which I can't stop playing and am still convinced should be the lead single. What a missed opportunity if this song isn't taken advantage of! It's the PERFECT transition from All I Ever Wanted to something more introspective and harder, yet still pop and catchy. I don't even care that I have a LQ demo - it rocks my world.

Do we have any clue when this album is coming out? All we've heard is October but at this point November wouldn't surprise me. Personally I'd love to see it out by the week before black Friday.

Don't You Wanna Stay has been gaining a lot of momentum on Adult Contemporary lately. The bullet has been increasing or decreasing a lot day by day so that worries me a little. At this point I think top 3 is very possible and wouldn't be surprised if it reached number 1.

So we have Lambert rumored to be Nov 8th, I thought I read a Daughtry rumor of Black Friday, where do we squeeze Kelly in? Or should I say, who is going to get the squeeze? If it were me, I'd keep Lambert at Nov 8, release Kelly around BF and Daughtry early Dec or Jan maybe. I don't know what to think, it looks tight. Well, I actually would rather Kelly release in Oct, but since that doesn't look to be happening and with a Sept single, Nov looks likely.

I am generally a day or two behind everyone with the leaks. Not because I don't have my sources...I do. I just forget to synch my iPod or add them to my iTunes...but I totally LOVE Don't. Apparently I need to watch the live version too. The last choruses with the harmonies/background vocals....just :'( :'( :'(

It's been over two years since Daughtry and Kelly have released an album. Lambert's can wait. Neither of those albums are finished anyway.

Kelly should get the November release, PERIOD. Everyone else can fight for another month.

My thinking with Lambert IS because he's on his sophomore album, which is for the most part make or break time. So Nov would be more beneficial for him and for RCA in the future if they can make it a success. He's also got some promo in August and it would be stupid to let that go to waste, so maybe a lead single is coming then. If not, then it's really for nothing.
Kelly and Daughtry have well established fanbases and careers, not to mention good track records with radio play. I don't see any issues in that regard whether it's Oct or Dec album releases for either of them. Kelly will be CHR first, Daughtry HAC. And their singles should chart well before the album drops.
I DO think Kelly will get a Nov release based on the Sep single and the Iheart radio concert gig. Daughtry is recording right now, but I don't know how long it usually takes him to complete an album.
All that being said, I think there is room for all to play in the sandbox, it's just got to be well coordinated and I don't have a lot of faith in RCA's CHR radio team at the moment, unless you are Pitbull.
ETA: I love 'What Doesn't Kill You'

Late, but I really like "What Happened Here." It has a great, bluesy vibe, even in demo form. Other than that (and "Don't," obviously), I could live without the others.

I like What Happened Here too. I think it's cute that Kelly's voice is so distinctively different during different eras. I love the soulful, sexy voice during the Thankful era, which I believe is the time when WHH was recorded.

As much as I love this whole new song a day thing that's been going on, these songs aren't very good. They were all cut for a reason. The only ones I think I like are Getaway and Too Much, and I think I'm getting used to Racehorse. Don't is nice to have as well, but otherwise I'm not too impressed. Not that I'm complaining though, most fan bases never get this kind of opportunity.

Not that I'm complaining though, most fan bases never get this kind of opportunity. I really like Slamming Doors. It's probably the best leftover after Too Much and Racehorse, for me. And of course Don't. I think the reason why they aren't amazing is just that they're unfinished. I could imagine some finished album versions of a few of these songs being great. It is awesome to hear the songs anyway, regardless of the form. I wish I could hear leftovers from my other favorite artists' albums.

I'd love to hear both of these songs finished. Drowning has such a cool No Doubt vibe to it!

I honestly have heard very little of the new (old era) demo leaks, but I have to say that I am now obsessed with 'Dark Side', 'What Doesn't Kill You', and 'You're Breaking Your Own Heart'. Honestly, they are A or higher quality material. The vocal on 'Dark Side' is rather interesting: creepy instrumental opening, chilling yet tender, gorgeous head voice-laden verses (and bridge) which flow into a HUGE, confident, powerful vocal during the choruses. That juxtaposition is truly brilliant, as one does not expect such a powerful vocal during the verses. Finally, the final pre-verse and verse is filled of HUGE F#5s- perhaps moreso than any other KC recording to date: this will be mind-boggling live. There is honestly not a single mainstream female gal who can so effectively perform this song with the different voices and such range required in one song.
Once again, the vocal chameleon has struck again.

Post here more plz. <3 Judging from his past tweets, it looks like he's a mixer or something, so he could just be finishing what's already been recorded. Even if she's going back in to record new songs, there's still plenty of time for a fall release. I'd be fine with it.
