Video: Adam Lambert covers Purple Haze – what a rockstar!

Adam Lambert has shown his rocky side yet again.

Another day, another cracking cover song from Adam Lambert. It was just last week we shared a video of the American Idol legend performing a cover of Enter Sandman by Metallica in Auckland, New Zealand, well now Adam has performed a cover of Jimi Hendrix’s Purple Haze at his gig in Paris.

Adam even put his own spin on the song. It just goes to show what a versatile performer he is!

Recently tweeting about how much he is enjoying Europe, Adam said: “I’ve been spending the past few days walking around the cities we’ve been in- so inspiring!”

“Copenhagen, Berlin, Munich and now Hamburg. Europe is sexy.” he added.

Sister Says Jimi Hendrix Lives On Through Adam Lambert Performance- www.rockstarweekly.com/sister-says-jimi-hendrix-lives-on-through-adam-lambert-performance.html

Janie Hendrix (Jimi's sister and CEO of Experience Hendrix), told RockStar Weekly on the performance of her late brother’s classic tune.

"Watching the artists of American Idol (like Adam Lambert) perform Purple Haze confirms once again that 40 years later Jimi's spirit lives on through his music."

Adam Lambert's 'E! True Hollywood Story': 'This is what I was supposed to do'
It's only appropriate that "American Idol" finalist Adam Lambert's "E! True Hollywood Story" aired during the 2010 American Music Awards. One year ago on the AMAs, Glambert made headlines with a controversial performance of "For Your Entertainment."
His THS starts off with home movies and interviews with his family. It's adorable to see Glambert as a red-haired, freckle-faced junior high-age kid. Over shots of his awkward years, he talks about figuring out his own sexuality and how hard it was. But he has the two most awesome parents in the world, apparently, because they were onto it before he ever said a word and they helped him with it. That is incredible. Con't - bit.ly/asvGvI

Some updates regarding the EP from RCA Ed on Adamofficial:

"yes, as I wrote below, they're back-tracking through ALL of the orders to make sure all who ordered get their track."

"The "WWFM" (almost) instant grat download is coming through now, guys, and they're back-tracking ALL order to make sure everyone receives it. Sorry for the delay, but we caught a skip in the file delivered to us and had to re-ingest, blah, blah, blah.

And guess what...orders are SO off the hook that we're already working to print more CDs! I told them to pay heed the Glamberts!"

Adam Lambert Lights Up in A-Dam
Adam Lambert Anything goes in Amsterdam, especially when American Idol hottie Adam Lambert is on stage. During the last two songs of his set at the Paradiso on Saturday night, Lambert smoked a marijuana spliff and open-mouth kissed guitarist Tommy Joe Ratliff, giving new meaning to "Purple Haze" and "Whole Lotta Love."

Adam Lambert is the ultimate rock star! He is eyeliner, spiked hair, sleeveless, douced in glitter, crotch grabbing, making out & smoking weed on stage! He also passed it around to everyone else on stage! Relax…it was is Amsterdam where it is totally legal. Check out the madness below. b96.radio.com/2010/11/24/adam-lambert-smokes-big-blunt-on-stage/

When in Amsterdam, eh, Adam Lambert?
The American Idol favorite was literally smoking during his concert at the Paradiso in Amsterdam on Saturday, taking a few hearty puffs off of what looked suspiciously like a marijuana cigarette during his rendition of the Jimi Hendrix classic "Purple Haze." (Don't worry, though; weed is like, totally cool with the cops over there, and in fact might even be mandatory in some areas.)
At another point during the song, Lambo occupied his lips by laying a wet one on his guitarist Tommy Joe Ratliff after deliberately misinterpreting the "Purple Haze" line "'Scuze me while I kiss the sky" as "'Scuse me while I kiss this guy." www.celebuzz.com/adam-lambert-sparks-up-stage-s279051/

Adam Lambert lights up on stage, creates the ultimate ‘Purple Haze’ experience
Adam Lambert may not have been invited to the American Music Awards, but his E! True Hollywood Story did just well on its own. While the pop star is currently over seas tearing up the stage every night, it seems as if he’s also enjoying their way of life as well.
At his recent show in Amsterdam, Lambert lit up on stage what appeared to be a joint, and then proceeded to kiss his guitarist Tommy Joe Ratliff (no shocker here). Don’t put it past Lambert to use the resources he’s got to create the ultimate experience for his “Purple Haze” cover. No complaints around, joint or no joint, no one can deny that his unpredictable actions are what makes his live show so entertaining, always waiting for….what will he do next? bit.ly/dMdWEq

After being ignored for a few days. 36 videos of the performance on YouTube — and at least 50 on other video sites — I stopped counting at 50. It is all over Asia-Pacific, Europe, Russia news media, all good!!

French review- www.evous.fr/musique/Adam-Lambert-en-concert-a-Paris,11428.html
Translation:

Adam Lambert in concert in Paris: We were there!
Carole Bouchard translated from the original French by Satisfied


It’s a phenomenon. There’s no other way to describe Adam Lambert, much less Adam Lambert live. Many came because they were curious. Curious about a man who scandalized and fascinated America for the past year, curious about the first contestant on American Idol to embark on a world tour. Curious about his reputation for being, at 28 years of age, the offspring of Freddy Mercury and Elvis, godchild of David Bowie. Tonight, we’ll count the octaves but also the uninhibited moves. His album is true to what he likes and who he is. He totally masters the classic hits of rock, is a fan of inspirational pop singers Lady Gaga, Christina Aguilera and Madonna, and electro beat. He’s a singer for our time with a real musical culture.

Once the hall is full and the audience impatient, Adam comes on stage. Let’s be clear from the start – the only thing that won’t garner unanimous agreement are his outfits! The first outfit in particular, consists of a top hat and a purple coat which even some hippies wouldn’t have dared to wear. But the eccentricity, although sometimes over the top, is also one of his defining characteristics. All of this is quickly forgotten once the first notes are heard: as they say in English, they are “crystal clear”. The Voodoo/Down the Rabbit Hole/Ring of Fire medley creates a mystical atmosphere. In the time it takes for him to remove his hat and coat, the audience is won over. We follow his large blue eyes, ringed with eyeliner and glitter, as well as his half-open shirts and rock-style pants – the tighter the better. With Adam Lambert, we take him all in as his charisma is undeniable. That night at the Trabendo, we saw mature women transformed into wild groupies, rock fans, people with leather jackets on their backs singing until their lungs exploded, a gay community who came to admire one of their new ambassadors, and young awestruck girls. All ages, all types: the Glamnation Tour, as he calls it, is for everyone.

At the heart of all this is the voice. While we may well know his studio album by heart, it’s a shock to hear him live. People shake their heads in disbelief when he performs Sleepwalker. How can he sing those notes? The emotion he conveys and his incredible vocal prowess give you goosebumps. Shifting from the lower register to the high notes in a matter of seconds, Adam Lambert is simply phenomenal. The song, one of the most rock on the album, is just as much of a hit as the single Whataya Want from Me, performed acoustic style with the audience singing along. Aftermath also defies the laws of vocal gravity. Soaked, a song penned by the band Muse, is also a winner. It is sung almost a cappella and the audience dares not breathe lest the moment be disturbed. This is in fact the only quiet moment since people otherwise sing, dance and jump all over the place, getting into the sexiness of this American singer. Fever, penned by Lady Gaga, is a free-for-all with provocative poses – let’s enjoy for a moment the suppleness of this singer who belts out mind-blowing notes while bending himself in half on the floor – and flirts with his bass player. Things have reached a cult status for the fans who at every concert, wait for the famous “kiss”. They are never disappointed. Lambert has the class to go with his talent and is never vulgar. A smile here, an impish look there – he’s enjoying himself. He is inspired by Paris. “It’s gay Paris here, no?” he asks, before declaring “OK, well now it is!”. Everyone laughs. Like the woman who grabs his leg or the pretty boys he searches out. “I see some very pretty faces tonight… That inspires me!” Although American Idol is not known to be very gay friendly, he knew how to captivate millions of Americans and make them his fans. Adam Lambert is proof that talent, combined with sincerity, is a winning combination.

The last song, If I Had You – a club hit – closes the show. The audience won’t leave and demands more. After 6 months of touring, The Glambert, as he is known, has had a tendency to forego encores or performing 20th Century Boy. His voice is not a machine. Monte Pittman – who played with Madonna – is his guitarist and the following day is his birthday. His fans are holding signs which he says are very touching. He will therefore perform an encore which on Friday already made the news in American media outlets.

He only rehearsed it once for fun but Adam has decided to reprise Purple Haze by Jimi Hendrix. The purists are already afraid. Not to worry – this guy’s voice is a match for anything. Not only is the performance successful, the crowd goes wild. The response is mutual – Lambert doesn’t want to leave. “We should do another one!” he tells his band. After some hesitation, he embarks on one of the classics he’s often performed and which helped build his reputation – Whole Lotta Love by Led Zepellin. The new drummer is in a bit of a panic but Adam knows his stuff. It’s a triumph. “Merci beaucoup!” No, thank you, Mister Lambert. Thank you for the demonstration, the breath of fresh air midst a pop/rock market where risks are rare. Thank you for succeeding in raising in one single voice the rock stars as well as modern divas of pop. Although most of Europe is already at his feet, the French market is just starting to get on board this train. It would be a shame to let it go by.

Adam Lambert tops Robert Pattinson for Flecking Records’ Sexiest Male
Adam Lambert has been touring over seas performing to sold out shows in Europe and it seems as if his hard work is finally starting to pay off for the former “American Idol” contestant.
Lambert has just beat out Robert Pattinson, James Franco, and Leonardo DiCaprio, among others to snag the title of Flecking Recrods’ Sexiest Male Celebrity. With Lambert’s edgy style, rockstar hair, and sexy attitude, it’s no wonder that Lambert has won over the public. bit.ly/gqdrym

So You Wanna Be an "American Idol"
Since the popular music reality show “American Idol” has appeared on the television schedule, hundreds of thousands of singing hopefuls have auditioned for the show. But is it really that simple?
“In nine seasons only two winners have topped the charts on a consistent basis and sold millions of records topping the 10 million mark in total sales – the original winner Kelly Clarkson and country girl Carrie Underwood. Many of the more successful contestants have been eliminated short of the finals – Chris Daughtry and Adam Lambert who has been making his mark all over the world.” bit.ly/hQ0Orm

"Adam Lambert makes me gay – as in happy." (funny)
I, for one, being a hetero married male can honestly say I have a platonic man crush on Lambert. He’s the perfect entertainer. So I guess you could say I’m a Glambert. If nothing else, Adam Lambert makes me gay – as in happy.
Or am I just brainwashed? bit.ly/h2GCH5

Wednesday marked the 19th anniversary of the death of Freddie Mercury, arguably the greatest frontman (and showman) in rock history. As this article points out, Freddie is still influencing artists today, from Lady Gaga (who may or may not have been named after the Queen classic “Radio Gaga”) to his heir apparent Adam Lambert. Adam has a long way to go, though. For starters, he needs to start wearing full length body stockings. lol bit.ly/ifPEgN

Freddie Mercury’s Musical Stepchildren, Darlings.
Mercury is in the Top 5 pantheon of rock front men. He had swagger, appeal to both sexes, the voice, charisma, and an inherent talent and need to entertain you. Everyone, from Axl Rose to Lady Gaga is in his debt. Seriously, "November Rain" and "Speechless" are total Queen rips.
We can only imagine what kind of sassy old man he would have been like. Maybe he would have been the bitchiest American Idol judge ever, or the star of the best reality show ever. Can you imagine him decimating Adam Lambert for copping his hustle, darling?
These are bands and artists that still do Queen’s legacy right.(They include Adam in their list of artists “doing it right”) bit.ly/gVaWna

Excuse Adam Lambert While He Kisses the Sky (and, more importantly, This Guy)
One of many differences between a pop star and a rock star is that a pop star puts image first and a rock star puts the emotional core of their music first — many expected Adam to “clean up his act” after the AMAs, like a pop star would do, but he didn’t. After creating television’s first live, unplanned male-on-male kiss, Adam responded to the backlash responsibly but unapolagetically. No shield of publicists, no censors.

Ultimately though; it’s not the boy-kissing and theatrics and genderf*ckery that makes Adam’s performances so meaningful for his fans. That’s just part of it. The other part, I think, is that when Adam struts up to the edge of the stage and gushes, “you’re all gorgeous, and beautiful,” you believe him because he’s looking at you when he says it. And somewhere in that crowd is an awkward, lonely, singing/dancing kid (or his Mom) like the kid Adam Mitchell Lambert used to be, who for one moment realizes that he is, really, gorgeous, beautiful, and definitely not alone. bit.ly/gj2WDf
