Quote :: Even though Adam Lambert may not have yet cracked the coveted section of the Top 40 airplay chart with "If I Had You", he is certainly making movement in the right direction. In looking at the latest "American Idol" airplay numbers courtesy of USA Today, one thing is immediately apparent -- the third single off of "For Your Entertainment" is starting to pick up a little momentum.

After ending last week at #42 among songs performed by "Idol" alum, Adam this week is all the way up at #32. Not only is this good news, but Adam could also be set to jump up four or so places on the Top 40 chart, bringing him ever-closer to that coveted #40 position (though those numbers won't be known completely until Sunday).

Of course, Adam is still leading the "Idol" airplay chart with "Whataya Want From Me". How are other alum faring? Carrie Underwood is starting to close in on the top spot with "Undo It", and Kris Allen's "The Truth" moves up six places this week to #25 (which will also probably show up on the Hot AC chart).
