By streaming do you mean downloading the single? -- or does it mean listening to something like Pandora or a radio station and waiting for his single to be played? When they play it, is that when it counts? I'm getting confused.

Thank you Adam for this wonderful pic from M&G in Warsaw - one of the best TOHT concerts ever!

I enjoy Empire a lot! It's definitely must-see TV for me. Taraji P. Henson is terrific! I've never liked Terrence Howard. Ugh. But he plays an unlikable character, so that works out. Jussie Smollett is adorable and so talented. Most of the cast are great. I'm crossing my fingers that Adam and Terrance can somehow end up with guest roles next season! Back when the show first started, Terrance posted a photo on Instagram referring to Jussie as "homie," so I think they know each other. Maybe Adam does too? (I just did some Twitter snooping, and Jussie replied to a congratulations tweet from Terrance.) And Terrance has worked with Debbie Allen over the past year or so, and she's directed the season finale of Empire. So I'm hopeful! It would be so great if Terrance could get a role as a singer/dancer or family member on the show. And of course there's the Idol/Fox/music connection for Adam. They've had a huge variety of exciting guest stars so far. It's definitely the show to be on for ratings and demo, especially if you're a musician. When (I'm thinking positively) Adam guest stars on Empire, I will flip out!

So, if I understand, us core fans, many who bought multiple hard album CDs in the past, aren't gonna be able to get Adam to a #1 position this time around...like for Trespassing. So, in addition to buying the physical albums, we need to stream, buy digital versions, hope his lead single or 2nd pre-album single...one or both blow up big to really big....and then hope that other artists during that week don't have bigger total numbers than his. I will do whatever I can do to help when album time comes. I will need instructions on when to pre-order albums for maximum effect, how and which stream sites to DL and how to best use those. I have never streamed any music, so I'll need help/info. Bottom line, seems he needs a hit song that produces purchases and streams from way beyond current Glambertland.
As far as impacting the first upcoming April single....I'll buy from itunes and Amazon and I suppose start the streaming regimen. I will eagerly await my instructions...lol.
I'm so glad Q3 and other numbers people have knowledge on how this works.

Streaming is using something like Pandora, or Spotify, or Rdio! I DLed Rdio last night and it is pretty damn easy to use!

I want another #1 for him so badly because that will make him the #1 and #2 Out and proud artists to get a #1. No other gay artist has gotten a number since Trespassing!

TALCvids @talcvids 37m37 minutes ago As time approaches, some info to consider: requestadamlambert.com/fan-guide-tips/ & requestadamlambert.com/shazam-the-song/ … OK....I don't understand Shazam. Does this site count as a stream site? If so, it seems that you have to listen to a radio station and when they play Adam you have to connect to Shazam which knows to pull up Adam's song....where you can buy it on itunes, hear part of it or get the lyrics, etc. From the above link: "So listen to your local/favorite radio station, and then once you hear Adam’s song, Shazam it! A convenient way to listen to your favorite station is via the iHeartRadio app on your phone." I doubt I'll be listening to music on my phone all day long just waiting to hear them play...or maybe not play....Adam's song. I hardly ever use my phone. Hopefully, with the other sites like Pandora or Spotify, etc. ...can you not just pull up Adam's song and play it? I have no idea how it "records" that you've listened to it...and would you listen over and over for more impact?

Shazam is just an app program to identify the song and singer. No streaming.
