PERCHED on a stool in a tiny venue, the giant voice of American Idol’s Adam Lambert was given the stripped-back treatment.
While he still looked glam – his sprig of huge hair screams popstar – gone were the usual electro-pumping beats for this showcase to introduce his new second album Trespassing.
And what better way to show off those serious pipes.
First single Better Than I Know Myself is a stirring rock ballad of huge sing-along proportions.
In the video, good Adam battles bad Adam, and on Saturday had more than half a million YouTube views after its first day of release.
But it’s not even the best track in the new batch of material.
Album title track Trespassing, co-written with Pharrell Williams, is a million-dollar smash.
“No trespassing, my ass/Wait til ya get a load of me,” Adam roared in confident, cheeky strides with a lip curl as fine as that of Elvis.
However, it’s the stirring Outlaws Of Love which will push Adam into the next level of super- star status.
Lady GaGa’s Born This Way opened the doors for the lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender community to finally feel good about themselves.
This gorgeous track – about equality for all – takes that to the next level.
