Wasn't there an Australian interview from an official (not tabloid) source during when QAL was in Australia that said that new album will be released 2019? From Adam's later interviews I understood that he will release at least one single, maybe two before 2018 ends. He was sure he'd have some music out before the end of the year. I too hoped for a single before Vegas but maybe better not to mix it with QAL. Unlike Two Fux which was a separate song, this single will be part of the album. Since Adam said "full circle" and such in recent interviews - might mean around the anniversary of the release of "For Your Entertainment" Released: October 27, 2009 and/or the FYE album released on November 23, 2009. So I hope we get something end of October or a least in November Fingers crossed!!!

Audio Game - Day 4 Song: Somebody To LovePlease give the following feedback in the thread: 1) Which version do you like best & 2nd best? And why? 2) Which format did you listen to, FLAC, M4A, or MP3? 3) Did you listen on a PC or on a Smartphone? 4) Did you listen using speakers, headphones or earbuds? If speakers, was it the speaker on the PC or a better speaker? If you want to guess which recording is mine, Nick's, or the mix, please send that to me in a PM. I'd like to get everyone's reaction to the recordings before saying which recording is which. M4A - Play and/or DownloadSomebody To Love - ASomebody To Love - BSomebody To Love - CP.S. This is the 4th out of 8 songs in the game. At the end of the game, I will give a full review of the feedback, including which recordings A, B, & C refer to. 1) B -Vocals front. In all I prefer to hear Adam's voice in these recordings because I've already seen all the concert videos (some of which have great sound) with all the instruments. In fan videos we can't get Adam's voice like its recorded for tv. One of the reasons I love that Rock in Rio TV recording cause the way Adam's voice sounds up close too. As it does in these samples we get to listen to. A- like second best, cause one can hear instruments more. C- is too far away and too much echo. 2) M4A 3) On a PC 4) Headphones - top quality ones.

I was trying to quote this post but somehow my fat fingers on the phone managed to hit the report post button, so disregard if that happened. Downloads of the video set should be at @devonlane website. I could try to find it for you in the evening. Thank you! I hoped someone still had it saved somewhere. cassie Would love to get another video with Angelina. Love listening to her talk. It will be interesting to hear her "dissect" the techniques Adam uses, unless its a professional trade secret which she can't share . But maybe we can get a description of what we hear, in technical terms. The way Adam's voice sounds "3-D" by comparison to other singers - is that called resonance ? That effect when the voice can fill the auditorium so to speak. Would love to hear what that effect or other is called - which Adam does in a song like Love kills as well as when is he singing head voice, chest, mixed, falsetto etc. during one song. Seen some vids on utube that do that but Angelina explains it so much better. I often re-read & re-watch the videos/articles she wrote about Adam.

Does anyone have the whole E True Hollywood Story ? I only seen pieces of it on the internet. I remember people giving links in PM to download the whole thing, don't remember it being posted on utube or it was blocked. At that time didn't have the possibility to download from such websites like mega...smth, would be interesting to see the whole video again.

cassie Is it possible to analyze Love kills with Angelina? Thank you bamafan for the suggestion! When Adam sings at 4:40 that " drills you through your heart"...he sounds like in Brigadoon and it just melts me. And that intensity -its not just that he sings louder at 2:08 "...cold steel" right? He makes his voice sound sharp in unlike it sounds when he sings at 1:04 "pays no bills" where it sounds so very gentle and pretty. I'm a fan of Muse and before Idol my favorite cover they did was of "Feeling good" from their album in 2001. Matt Bellamy uses those tricks with the megaphone which made the song sound cool. When Adam sung it on Idol what blew my mind (beside the long note at the end which was downright perfect) is that part at 1:28 when he goes "from me" to "yeah..." at 1:30 www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSZCCM_j5u4Another example was in Mad World when he sings "look right through me" www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrIUU2JU65I When I first watched all the Idol performances what I kept thinking is how does he make his voice sound so very pretty and gentle in parts of the songs and sharp in others and its not the change in volume...that he sings louder...its that what Adam can do to make his voice sound different, right?
