My two cents is Adam Lambert is a genre all on its own. In 2009 at the AMAs. He could of find a ballad and that’s that. But he would of just been another David Cooke, with all respect to David. The risks he took that night made him an international star. The way he blends genres makes his artistry. So I do understand Adam connects better with emotive songs. I just personally don’t think the genre has anything to do with not charting better. Of course GT went triple platinum in Rome countries. And it’s Deep House. ... except DC never got a chance to close out the AMAs

Sizzling63 and Lurleene, I completely agree. I believe if Adam had sung Closer To You on TV, it would have made a bigger impact than SP. He just delivers power ballads like nobody else. And he blows everyone away each and everytime he sings a ballad. In a ballad, there is nowhere to hide so his talent shines even brighter.
I do understand why he picked SP as the single though vs Closer To You. SP is shorter, more fun and makes a statement. Love the video as well, thought it was perfect. I think it is a great radio song. Closer To You would be great as well, my only concern is that it might be a bit too long for radio. Would be the perfect second single.
Was not too impressed with SP on Kelly & Ryan though. Thought it did not translate that well live. Maybe it is because Adam still did not feel well? Or because of the mike issue? I thought the same with Ghost Town live. Always thought the live performances of it, especially during promo was kind of awkward even though it was a great radio song.
I think Adam might need a bit of choreography for SP. And Closer To You would be perfect live on TV.
That CTY live session is just heavenly. Have been watching it on repeat! Adam is so into his performance, heart and soul. Such a timeless song with a universal theme that will appeal to anyone, reminds me of Aerosmith.

Wow, that would be very, very exciting if we got live sessions on all or most of the songs on Velvet.
Can't wait.
