Lovin’ on Adam Lambert

I’ve not been an American Idol “fan”. I started watching for the first time ever about half way through last year, and did much enjoy David Cook. This year I thought I’d give the audition rounds a try, and they were everything I thought they’d be – and worse. They bothered me so bad that when they finally got to Hollywood, and brought Tatiana along for another week of “Let’s make crazy things happen for ratings and forget about the music” I stopped watching the show.

But that doesn’t mean I’ve stopped watching Adam Lambert. Because this boy (man? I think he’s in his 20’s) man can sing.

So I love Wednesday mornings, and this site, because on Wednesday mornings I get to see what other amazing, sometimes outrageous, and always entertaining song Adam has pulled out of his soul to sing for us this week.

He didn’t disappoint this week. Mad World (I prefer the Gary Jules version to the Tears for Fears) is one of those haunting songs that I never get tired of. It’s been on my “fav songs” playlist for about 3 years now. I think I have a new favorite version of it though. Click through and listen (Mad World is at the bottom of the page, so scroll down) for yourself and tell me if you agree.
