Shortly before he achieved global superstardom Adam and Madonna's guitarist, Monte Pittman, collaborated in the studio on a set of songs which give us an unfiltered view of an artist entering his prime. That material is now commercially available for the first time as the album "Beg for Mercy." Sometimes referred to as the "Citizen Vein Sessions," all of the songs on "Beg for Mercy" are originals, co-written by Adam and Monte. Adam's raw, honest vocals are perfectly supported by a superb pro team, including members of Madonna's band. Review: Excellent Album - For those of you bent out of shape about this release, Adam made his deals, it's legal so get over your righteous indignation. Having said that, this is a great album. It has a harder edge than his other post-Idol releases and it gives some glimpses of his developing vocal acrobatics. More importantly, it exhibits the passion and personality you heard during his Idol competition that has been sorely lacking from his post-Idol releases. This is the Adam I hope we see in his official March release. One more thing, everyone worked up because this may have been promoted as a "new" album need to realize that this is a common marketing ploy used by EVERYONE. There are hundreds of releases every year of a mega star's "new" album that is simply a compilation of old hits. At least this is previously unheard music. Review: These Songs Are Good! - I confess . . .I went ahead and bought this CD despite all the warnings that I should not. And I LOVE it. The songs and Adam's voice are great. I'm glad to have something different to listen to from Adam while waiting for his real new CD "Trespassing" to come out.

These Songs Are Good!
I confess . . .I went ahead and bought this CD despite all the warnings that I should not. And I LOVE it. The songs and Adam's voice are great. I'm glad to have something different to listen to from Adam while waiting for his real new CD "Trespassing" to come out.

Good rock album
As it's been pointed out, this is not Adam's new CD, but an album of rocks songs recorded prior to American Idol. Those who enjoyed what Adam did on AI and prefer rock to pop songs (especially those with a lot of electronic music) will likely enjoy this album. I personally like to hear the power in his voice, which is more obvious in rock songs (like when he sang "Whole Lotta Love" on AI) than pop songs, as well as the pure beauty of his voice in ballads. If you really like Adam's voice, you can't call this album "crap", even though Adam didn't want it released because he has apparently moved on from this style of music. I have pre-ordered Adam's new CD "Trespassing" and got his new single as well, but I wasn't impressed by it (although I am warming up to it after many listens) because of the electronic sound. I'm one of those fans who miss what he did on AI, and therefore can appreciate his old songs. On this album, my favorites are "Turning On" (where he "screams" at the end like he did on AI), "The Circle", "Pop Goes The Camera" and "Crawl Through the Fire" (this last song was even better when he sang it live as seen on "You Tube", but he often sounds better live than on the original CD, just like his live GNT "Sleepwalker" version is much more powerful than the original. Like another comment said, this CD should have been presented as "songs from a band that Adam used to be a part of" instead of as Adam's current songs.

This CD Primarily Rock
Adam would be better off if he mixed ballads and rock on the same cd. This cd is primarily all rock. His previous cd was primarily all ballads. We have purchased every cd by Adam Lambert up to and including this one. Not sure if we will buy any more cds by this artist unless he goes on tour. We saw him about a year ago in Philadelphia. He put on an unbelievable show!

Diese CD finde ich weniger rockig als Adams anderen. Aber wer seine Stimme liebt, der sollte diese CD sich unbedingt kaufen.
