I really enjoyed that review - appreciate how much it analyzes the lyrics.

I really enjoyed that review - appreciate how much it analyzes the lyrics. Totally agree! I appreciated his perspective/honesty--on the often incoherent vocals. ( comment quote below) Yes...it is exactly what I commented on as well as a few others upon the first listens...that we needed to see the lyrics. Once I read the lyrics it was much more satisfying to listen. Overglow in particular I had to read the lyrics to realize how genius they were. "While the production and instrumentals can criminally overpower Lambert's trademark powerhouse vocals at times, perhaps some flaws with mastering, it somehow still gives the finished product an appreciated raw edge. Possibly purposeful, that lack of sheen symbolizes an artist taking over the reins and following his creative intuition."

www.itemlive.com/2019/09/27/new-music-breakdown-jonas-brothers-diplo-collaborate-on-lonely/--another great review...mind you --she was very positive about all the new works she writes about. “VELVET: Side A” an EP by Adam Lambert Three weeks after blessing us with the edgy track “Superpower,” Lambert drops an EP. I’d say he finally found himself musically, because the man doesn’t miss a beat in any of the six tracks. “Loverboy” starts off with a cowbell, introduces a dark guitar strum, and provides us with seductive Lambert vocals. What’s one word to describe the song? Fun. In “Stranger You Are,” the former American Idol runner-up gives all us weirdos an anthem. He samples nearly every decade of music throughout the track and makes me want to dance. Where are my go-go boots? We have our necessary ballad with “Closer to You,” where Lambert gets vulnerable and nearly brings me to tears with his emotionally powerful vocals. “Overglow” is so 80s-synthetic pop that it hurts. It needs to be on the soundtrack for the next season of Netflix’s “Stranger Things.” Halfway through, Lambert picks it up and brings back the edge he does so well. “Ready to Run” has soul, funk, flawlessly high-pitched vocals and sets the tone for more new music, which I would bet all my money is coming soon.

MSNBC is in full promo mode for the GC and as a result QAL is mentioned and always first! I LOVE hearing Adam’s name from the people I would’ve never dreamed of! Joy Reid just did! Awwww!
