YES!! for numbers, and the climb!!
I did this "Pick the Sureshot" once yesterday, then decided not to do it again as I was unsure due to having to repeat my demographics. Does anyone know...is this a repeat vote???...or should it be a one time vote? I did not wish to spam the site with repeated votes if not appropriate.

The Darkness' Justin Hawkins praises Adam Lambert's Queen workThe Darkness singer Justin Hawkins believes Adam Lambert is "one of the few" singers who can do Queen's songs justice. The US star toured with the British rockers last year as they travelled the globe. Speaking to Pressparty today (May 29), Hawkins - who wrote Lambert's 2009 song 'Music Again' - praised his work with Queen, who are a big influence on The Darkness. The Brit said: "He's one of the few people out there that could do that sort of thing. He's got the range to be able to sing the more demanding Queen songs. "I do admire his talents. I wrote a song on his first album, so I've known him for a while now. I'm really happy for him." The Darkness meanwhile will release their new album 'Last of Our Kind' on Monday (June 1). Check back on Pressparty for the full interview with Hawkins next week.

We know the sequence: 1. The day after Adam announced he was parting ways with RCA, WBR CALLED him. He was not signed until later. This has been mashed up in the press a lot since then. 3. DMG/Adam were in discussion with a couple of labels and some big producers in November 2013. He was not signed to anyone then. Based on your 1 and 3 comments, I had never thought of this ...WBR was probably not a label DMG had contacted for discussions??? Or WBR had been contacted, made their decision behind the scenes and were waiting to jump on board when there was a formal announcement of Adam's departure from RCA. (Interesting to wonder about, but ....may never know the answer.)> Max Martin/Shellback agreed to be EP for Adam entire album before he was signed to WMR WHEN Adam was signed to a major label. So it happened at the same time -- MM/S were attached to the project but not working on the project until WBR signed Adam.> WMG (the label) put up the money to pay MM/S, the writing camp, create and promote the album, etc. So MM/S would not of proceeded with anything without Adam signing with a label. Q3...WOW.. for taking the time to outline the factors/decision/points in a timeline. Seeing the history/ evolution in one place versus thought gathering from articles over the past years solidifies in a cohesive way, my memories of posts/articles. The concepts I highlighted in red REALLY helped me wrap my head around this A3 work, and brought more clarity to the fact there was an agreement in principle "to work with Adam" when he had a label in place. That fact was not in my brain, I forgot that point. That answers my first question in my previous post. He was not really "pre-working" with MM/S...that is, he was not paying out of pocket for work with the Swedish team prior to signing with WBR.
Funny how my mind is more at peace when the jigsaw pieces start fitting. You got it. The part that seems difficult for the writers to get is that DMG (representing Adam) brought a package of Adam + Max Martin/Shellback to WMG and some other label (I assume some label within UMG). The deal was for the package. That package is far more attractive than "just" Adam. Getting Max Martin on board as EP was a huge coup. It is similar to the way movies are funded - you have a director, draft script and a big star on board then you pitch the package. >> No matter how the deal went down, the real thing that matters is so far we have 4 excellent songs. Adam worked with two of the best producers in the world and some of the best songwriting collaborators in the world, he had time to put together an excellent album and it is definitely an Adam Lambert album -- everything I love about him is there without all the production crap. >> NOW I WANT BIG SALES so we can get Album 4 with MM/S.
