By singing other people's songs on a talent show...I wouldn't call that a mark.
At least I was hoping you would say he made an impact with his solo music, funny that AI was mentioned by you instead.
Adam makes an impact whenever he performs because he is a natural entertainer. It doesn’t matter if he is singing his own or cover songs because he makes them his own with his unique personal touch!
An example of that for me is his live performances of Marley’s reggae hit, “This Is Love.”
Oops, what happened to the edit function? Meant to say “Is This Love.”

“Queen played as if the lightning struck tonight. ?Perfect guitar solos by Brian May and the incredibly pure vocals of @adamlambert. It was really a thunderous rock show.”

He sure made a not so good impact with that Melissa Etherdge duet. That was awful, a big shame. He sure didn't seem like he even tried to get it done well.
From what I read she didn't want to rehearse it overly much! They were just going to wing it. I am pretty sure that wasn't Adam as he is nothing, if not a perfectionist. Knowing Melissa Etheridge, I can imagine her winging it and I am sure Adam wouldn't argue with a legend!
I wouldn’t say that duet was awful and a big shame! It was fine!

Apparently they only rehearsed it the one time. I don't know if she didn't want to rehearse much, but time was a factor in it. I think AL travelled only the day before.
The duet could have been so much better. I was actually disappointed by it, because I like AL and I adore Melissa. I don't think it was the right song to sing, although I can understand why they perfomed it. It could have been so much better, believe me on this, I've seen Melissa and AL do much better than this.

Everything is fine to you, even when it's not. Like I said in my reply to snifflese, I have seen both of them do much better than this.
I look at it as a big ouch, and a letdown.
Oh my, a big ouch? They chose that song because it was the 25th anniversary for it. Just think how much worse it could have been with a Sam Smith falsetto! LOL

Yes darling. I know it was the 25th anniversary. I'm a big fan of Melissa's ;-).
Given that it was the anniversary and what it was about, yes a big ouch it wasn't better. One of those times rehearsing more, could have made it better, IMO.
SweetCaroline, I do seriously wonder, are you capable of only enjoying one artist? I used to know a guy who only liked the Beatles and didn't listen to anyone else because he'd found "the best". You remind me of that guy. Are you of the belief that Adam is all there is and everyone else sucks? I can't listen to Sam Smith either, but I can at least recognize he has talent and has earned his fame. Adam is great, and I truly do wish him global success, but he's not the greatest singer to ever live, or even living right now.
