Stoned Mary in the Garden 6,787 Posted February 24, 2023 You guys are so negative lmao Adam is one of the best male vocalists. I love the rock elements and how he made it is own while still staying true to the melody and feel of the original song. Love him. What a cool dude. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You said you did find him (his arrangement of West Coast) boring with the analogy of a pot calling the kettle black 1 Quote Last.FM | Discogs | JOYRIDE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrippieHippie 69 Posted February 25, 2023 5 hours ago, The Siren said: You said you did find him (his arrangement of West Coast) boring with the analogy of a pot calling the kettle black No, I didn’t! I said others would view Lana and Adam as boring, socially. Lana fans calling Adam boring is like the pot calling the kettle black. Ironically, Lana fans are called boring due their support of Lana. Our society deems Lana to be less valuable in comparison to artist like Beyoncé because she isn't shaking her ass, showing her breast and body in sexually provocative clothing. Adam Lambert is also considered less valuable due to his sexuality, and his style which is considered to be old-fashioned. Adam Lambert isn't a trendy artist that teenagers with short-attention spans can enjoy. He's cultivated for those who find value in the past. This is where Lana Del Rey and Adam Lambert share subtle similarities. . At the end of the day, To call Adam boring is just a cop out. Adam is preferred when it comes to groundbreaking performances honoring groundbreaking artist. They’ll call Miley Cyrus before they’ll inquire Lana to honor the greats. That’s just the honest to god truth. She’s been complimented by the greats of our time which is amazing but Lana must develop more as an artist in order to reach those heights. As far as excitement is concerned, Adam Lambert is provocative in his approach. He's bold, fearless, confident, fierce, strong, independent and unwavering. Lana fans are upset because someone as experienced as Adam Lambert dared to interrupt the status quo of their community. Personally, I don't like that the tempo wasn’t respected. The overproduction and vocal layering resulted in an overpowering performance. I'd rather listen to Adam Lambert sing his own material. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marryingkind 2,492 Posted February 25, 2023 I hated what he said about this song in his interview. It sounded that he only likes it bc Dan produced it. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IanadeIrey 62,021 Posted February 25, 2023 Bold move to fuck with a song like West Coast - nothing beats the original. That’s all I’ll say. But he is clearly talented. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CinnamonGay 10,527 Posted February 25, 2023 @TrippieHippie no one denied that Adam has an extremely wide and beautiful voice. Its when you said "Lana has no vocal range" Lana's vocal range is still rare for a woman, considering how low her voice can go-(vs Halsey - 2Octaves+2 notes, Taylor- 2 octaves 4 notes) And her voice has just gotten better and stronger in the last couple of years. I don't think the info in the website has been updated. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

saith 1,185 Posted February 26, 2023 I'm not a big fan of him and I didn't like his cover of West Coast but I still liked the fact that he made it and made the song his own. The tempo change is still there, just more subtle. I did surprisingly like his cover of Getting Older by Billie Eilish tough. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
