About 55 years ago I was in an amateur production of Brigadoon, where I met my late husband. I was Bonnie Jean and he was Charlie. I hope I don't sound disloyal when I say Adam Lambert's version of Come To Me, Bend To Me is unbeatable! Sheer perfection, and every time I hear it, I'm in tears.
Have always loved this song, & now I've heard the most perfect, stunning performance possible. . Thought I'd heard Adam's best already, but no, this is it. What an incredibly talented artist he is.
Adam Lambert rules! What a voice! Simon Cowell (sp) of AGT said Adam is one of the nicest and gracious people he has ever met. He also said he’s very talented as well😄.
Yep, he received his Actor's Equity card for this 2004 performance. Several members of the Houston cast have written me to confirm that this was him and talked about how the entire cast would stop everything backstage to hear him sing this song. Even more convincingly, this video has appeared on many hollywood websites and blogs and been viewed almost 600,000 times. If this were not Adam, someone would have written to correct me by now.
This is so technically excellent it's sort of ridiculous. It's even in timbre from top to bottom, gently placed on the breath, pure clean vowels throughout.
This is a vocal masterclass on tone, breath control, articulation, and interpretation. And it is LIVE without any electronic tricks or tweaks. As close to perfection as we are likely to hear this side of heaven.
My aunt, who had a part in Brigadoon, says Adam's version of this song is the best she has ever heard and she has heard almost all of the professional versions.
This brought me to tears. This song proves how he is such a star: at 22, he not only had the voice, the control, the command over his voice - but he had incredibly mature musicianship and artistry for his age. There are people who can sing, maybe even sing in different genres - but his blend of intonation, phrasing, control, artistry, musicianship - as well as his ability to wring every last bit of emotion from every note - truly set him apart.
I first heard this when Adam was still a contestant on American Idol - I'm a (former) Broadway tenor - well, I'm still a tenor, but no longer professionally - and pretty hard to please. PLUS, I'm in my sixties and quite an old fogie! But Adam can do anything as far as I'm concerned! This is perhaps the most beautiful rendition of "Come to Me, Bend to Me" that I've ever heard; his breath control, his intonation, his range - glorious! And even as the old fart that I am, when Adam brought his first tour to the Ryman in Nashville, I actually found myself standing ON the chair seat, screaming and dancing!! Wow - what a performer, in every genre!!
I'm with you 100% Dan. I too was screaming & dancing when I saw Adam fronting an Adam & Queen concert downunder. One of the most extraordinary performers EVER imho. His version of 'The Prayer' with Noa Dori too is exquisite.
Dan - not perhaps. This is absolutely the best. I am a spinto tenor, from an opera background, and this is absolutely the most glorious lyric tenor voice I think I've ever heard. Perhaps even leggiero tenor.
My mom, who is 78, just had eye surgery and can't read her beloved books. Everyday she's been listening to this song. She says his voice is like warm butter and relaxes her, lessens the pain from healing.
His voice is so magnificent it just leaves me speechless. Adam, we are so lucky to have been introduced to you via American Idol. You will always be the winner of Season 8 as far as I'm concerned. And, I'm sure you will reach greatness....our Rock God who can sing anything to perfection!!!
The sustained, steady pitches at two spots were absolutely spectacular. And this is a live performance. When he performed at the Kennedy Center for Cher's induction, he stole the show.
I so agree with you. After so many years, I still come back to listen to this song. I find it incredible that Adam can use his voice in so many ways. I showed this to my singing teacher, she is a professional Operatic Soprano, has toured the world, and has a succesful career. She wanted a copy and every time we listen she comments on how beautiful it is.
I will never get over how perfectly Adam Lambert sang this song. And at 22. I wonder what he would do now if he was given material like this to sing. Is there a word stronger than perfection?
What a spectacular stunning voice he has, I at 72 am a huge fan. I get goosebumps every time he sings! I can't wait to see him with Queen this October! What an amazing wonderful, beautiful, fantastic man! ❤
The way Adam sings this is just breathtaking. The sound he makes is so pure. No one like him, he is the greatest and will continue to be so whatever he sings.
This just rips me up. I’m a classically trained soprano who’s been around the block a time or two. Adam Lambert is an artist without compare, I love his collaboration with Queen and would love to hear him sing some classical repertoire. I know, not in his lane,,but wow. He could do some very special things with some lieder. Love you, Adam!
@@barbaraburton8914 he did Nessun Dorma during the Queen + Adam 2022 tour....It was almost completely cappella, then Brian and Roger backed him up...Mind-blowing!!!
@@moonlightelf591 it was definitely as good..but in a completely different way. His voice is so much richer now, fuller..and his low notes have such power and intensity. Really hard to compare, because each performance is so different, yet still absolutely stellar.
I have never been a huge fan of this style of music, and yet when I hear Adam's angelic voice I get goosebumps. I am amazed at his control and clarity. He is truly the best male vocalist ever!
When I listen to something many times, I end up finding imperfections in the voice, diction, etc... In this case, the more I heard the more impressed I was. I am convinced I will never hear another version as good as this one. Love the softness in some areas, and the power in others. Adam's voice is just beautiful. After hearing this, I love hearing Adam sing some crazy rock. That combination makes my day, just knowing it's the same Adam singing both makes me feel so good.
Thank you so much for posting this. I am a freelance writer doing an article on glam rock and in discovering Adam and his vocal abilities, found myself speechless when I played this. His talent was long apparent to anyone who was familiar with him prior to Idol and to those of us who now cannot seem to live without his voice in our lives, finding recorded performances like this are like opening buried treasure. Brigadoon has long been a favorite and it is now more so.
Heart-melting. I've said it many a time and I must say it again: Adam is one of those rare artists who not only have a great gift, he *IS* a great gift.
maybe i've listened this more than 100 times....My love for Adam's voice was love at first time in American idol....I searched a lot since then....but this piece is wonderful in his voice....and it's alive....best singer ever!!!
Lynne Everest ... Hi!! Ever since you suggested there might be a video of this performance I've searched everywhere but .. no luck!! I guess we'll just have to be content to hear ADAM without the visual!! ... LAMBERT Outlaw
OMG, I'm dying here. This is the first time I heard this. For all those that say Adam screeches, they need to hear this. Adam you have been blessed with a beautiful voice. Thank you for sharing it with the world.
Every time I hear this song, it brings me to the glam nation tour stop in Houston, Texas. A group of ladies on the balcony level, were holding a HUGE sign, " Bend to me Adam". Die hard Glamberts understood it immediately! ♡ Beautifully performed♡
Adam Lambert can sing anything!Wake up America ! We are so lucky to have him, take note Queen an World Audiences have discovered this talent!Yes I am a fan but what the hell how could you not be . ..... these vocals are amazing!
Just repeating my comment of 3 years ago, every time I hear him sing this it blows my mind……………………………...The way Adam sings this is just breathtaking. The sound he makes is so pure. No one like him, he is the greatest and will continue to be so whatever he sings.
Adam is the King, no matter the style of music. I see him 5 or 10 years from now reviving musical classics on Broadway. I’m a fan since his Idol days. Never had and never will be a contestant as versatile or compelling as Adam. Thank you Adam for auditioning for the show. Your talent has made me longing for every new endeavor . Love You 4 Ever
44 People don't like this! How incredible. I come here every time like I need water to quench my thirst. This is just so beautiful. Adam is so beautiful too, I love him a lot!
I listened to this song again and again. The more closely I payed attention, the more perfection I found. I still can't believe the beauty of his voice. Pure talent, chrisma, emotion, training, giving his best since his earlier years. And his beautiful soul, his giving heart, his courageous strength, his giving personality, his honesty... I just love Adam
I always come back to this song when I feel stressed and need something to purify my spirit. It is just so perfect. In a world of imperfections, this performance, this singer, this interpretation is perfect. We are so used to settling for less than perfect, and it is so rare, almost impossible to find, that when actual perfection comes along, it is hard to believe it's real. I'm so glad this video exists, because it's actual proof that yes, perfection is real and Adam Lambert is a perfect singer.
He can be an opera singer with his voice and the tone that he's singing. This is exactly what everyone talks about that Adam's range, vocabilty, that he can sing anything he want. There aren't a lot male singers that could do things like he does. This is unbelievable!! no words to explain.
This is true. There is a UK opera singer Angelina Kalahari who is a huge fan of Adam's. She said he could sing opera if he if wanted to and he wouldn't need much additional training.
Listening to Adam sing this song is so soothing. His voice is angelic and his control is unbelievable. I'd listen to anything, any genre that Adam wants to sing. I've been following him for 5 years when I first became aware of his amazing talent and don't intend to stop ever!!!
Back again for my nightly 'lullaby' .. can't go to sleep without ADAM's sweet voice flawlessly singing this song. Thank you for keeping this here. I need to hear ADAM sing this to soothe away the cares of the day. LOVE YOU ADAM, dear!
I adore Adam, and now my mom, who is 78yo adores him too! This song hooked her. How many types of amazing is he?? Now she's following his concert vids with me daily! He's just too hott...
Terreyn . .I saw Adam this pass weekend . . . and I told my daughter . this is what he wants . . pop . . but his talent is so much, much more . . I support him in every way. . . I hope some day he comes home (theater) even for a short time . . but now the world is his oyster and I want him to suceed big time because he is the most talented singer out there! I will love and support BB no matter what road he takes...
BestArts, it bears repeating: You have given pleasure to so many people - if not hundreds of thousands, then thousands of people hundreds of times! Thank you so much for all the pleasure you have given us by creating this page.
You are so beautiful, Adam.. Your voice, your face, your whole body and most of all, your heart... This song makes me feel like I'm ascending to heaven...!!!
Beyond praise, utterly angelic -- the loveliest rendition of Charlie Dalrymple's ballad I've ever heard. Would love to have seen him do this, and he must have soared in "Come Home With Bonnie Jean." Lerner and Loewe would surely approve. Thanks ever so much for posting this gem.
I just finished watching the movie Brigadoon. I watched it all the way through just to hear this song and it wasn't there!! Was this song only in the play but not the movie?? Maybe they had no one who could do it justice - at least not like Adam could.
Terreyn .. The same thing happened to me the other day .. I watched the movie all the way through but this song was not in it .. I thought I had dozed off or something but my husband said he didn't hear it either!! I can't imagine why they removed it ... seems strange to me!! I just checked Amazon movies & apparently the song was cut from the movie because it was sung by an unknown who outsang Gene Kelly .. that is a shame!! Now I know why it wasn't in the movie .. only the stage play!!
@@tatubert8210 thank you! I didn't hear the song in the movie and I couldn't understand why. Gene Kelly's massive ego is the answer. There was a version for TV with Robert Goulet as the lead. The song was in that. I don't remember the name of the singer but he was great. Guess Robert Goulet was sure of himself and didn't need reassuring.
How many years, how many times do I come here simply to find sublime beauty....countless times and forever. All the Blessings of the Universe to this fine man who brings so much perfection...and Joy to our lives.
Love this guy. I know he's all into his rock albums now and his concerts....I just ask that, please Adam, don't leave your musical theatre fans in the dust. PLEASE consider doing a Broadway album too. I could listen to Adam sing songs like this for hours on end. :)
rock is not what Adam loves ,he was under contract after idol and sang what they wanted ,listen to his Velvet album that's more like the stuff he wants to sing .no one does a ballad like Adam
Astonishing to think Adam was showing this much talent 5 years ago, and wasn't immediately a superstar. Maybe now is his time...this recording really demonstrates the beauty and range of his voice. Magnificent.
I keep coming back to hear this, again and again. It never fails to move me. As much as I enjoy his new album, Trespassing, and wish him enormous success with it. And as much as I loved For Your Entertainment, and its accoustic EP, and was thrilled by the GlamNation Tour - twice :) I come back to this, and can't help thinking - the musical theater really missed out when they didn't acknowledge what they had - they lost a real star when Adam decided to express his artistry in recording pop.
THIS... is the Adam Lambert I like! Pure, no amplification, or studio technicians making him sound good..this is a LIVE performance..and THIS man should have won AMERICAN IDOL!! brilliant brilliant brilliant vocal performance on this classic Lerner & Lowe melody!!!
I've listened to this song since Adam was a contestant on AI. Ater all these years it still gives me goosebumps. He is truly brilliant. Paula said he would be "iconic." He is more than that!
Every time I hear Adam sing this is takes my breath away. It is just fantastic and amazing. It makes my heart feel so good. What a versatile and brilliant singer he is. Love you Adam. xxxxxx
How? could there be 52 haters?????? Adam is AMAZING. I would love to hear him record some classical arias just because he can and he has the training. 'Come to me, Bend to Me' is as close to a classical performance that I could find on UA-cam. I've seen him live with the American Idol tour and most recently with Queen. I will go out of my way to see him live anytime he's within striking distance of where I live. I am a professional singer/teacher and unequivocally state he has prodigious technical ability (there have been naysayers re his AI performances...'screaming'....NOT.....)....nothing short of amazing, superb technique in all genres.....combined with his natural showmanship and down to earth personality is a recipe for super stardom!!!!! I would LOVE to see him on Broadway!!!
I love this performance for many reasons, one being it was the start of Adam's fabulous singing career! Yes, he has done many genius performances, but this song soothes my soul and reminds me where Adam came from. I adore him!
Truly breathtaking. Once again he has blown us away with his incredible range and ability to sing anything. His versatility is standing him in good stead and we can't wait for his new album to show us more of his amazing voice.
It's not only this song - once Adam sings anything all other versions are found wanting! But this... this is simply the most beautiful and heartfelt song ever recorded.
I still fail to understand how a singer this incredible needed American Idol to get a record deal. How come? Who the fuck ignores this amazing talent? How was he not discovered? Meanwhile 'singers' these days that cant sing live to save their lives get a record deal when they're 12. And yet after 6 years, he's still underrated.
I'll never figure that one out. He should be a global icon by now, even singing with queen I thought he'd have that much more recognition. Just seems like he isn't getting the respect he REALLY DESERVES. He's #1 to me and that's all that matters.
+Riley Green yes I agree! Maybe it just needs time! I mean no matter what music he makes, no matter how handsome he is no matter how much of a great personality he is, hes still going to be underrated because hes gay :( there are many many people on the internet and real life who just label him as 'the gay singer'. Sad...
I'd guess it's partly the gay thing. But probably more that he's so versatile, and so much of a chameleon, that the marketing types can't pin him into one of their little boxes.
If he had chosen to pursue a career as an opera singer, I think he would be world renowned by now. Trained, classical singers recognize how extraordinary his voice is. And how rare. But, he chose to be a pop singer. A great voice is not necessary, not appreciated, not noticed in that genre. Sigh.
I knew he was amazing on American Idol, but when I heard this the first time, his perfect voice brought me to tears. This is in my favorites list and I have to listen at least once a week. Why he is not more appreciated in the US is totally beyond all comprehension.
I am back again, rejoicing with this song, the weather is warm and everything beautiful, the song is glorious! Life is GREAT, Thank you Universe! Adam going with his TOH Tours, see you soon!

Hes not that good he is good but ur saying as if he is the best male singer ever
Yeah, he is.
I haven't listened to this in awhile. His brilliance still stuns me.
I don't usually like this type of music, but this one was simply beautiful
This is the most beautiful voice ever on the Brigadoon song, "Come to me; Bend to me."
Listening to Adam sing this song is so soothing. His voice is angelic and his control is unbelievable. I'd listen to anything, any genre that Adam wants to sing. I've been following him for 5 years when I first became aware of his amazing talent and don't intend to stop ever!!!
Me too CRT Troflie. Now seeing him sing with Queen is the best time in his career in my opinion.
Back again for my nightly 'lullaby' .. can't go to sleep without ADAM's sweet voice flawlessly singing this song. Thank you for keeping this here. I need to hear ADAM sing this to soothe away the cares of the day. LOVE YOU ADAM, dear!
that last "day" just before "give me your lips" slays me every time. How is that even possible
I adore Adam, and now my mom, who is 78yo adores him too! This song hooked her. How many types of amazing is he?? Now she's following his concert vids with me daily! He's just too hott...
What a lovely rendition of an old Broadway classic.
think I have been back here quite a few times...he is amazing here and forever since.....
+Denise Marcucci Me too! I just came back today after hearing him on American Idol 3/17/16! Love this song!
Terreyn . .I saw Adam this pass weekend . . . and I told my daughter . this is what he wants . . pop . . but his talent is so much, much more . . I support him in every way. . . I hope some day he comes home (theater) even for a short time . . but now the world is his oyster and I want him to suceed big time because he is the most talented singer out there! I will love and support BB no matter what road he takes...
If only there was a video as well. I've never heard this sung more beautifully. He's just amazing.
BestArts, it bears repeating: You have given pleasure to so many people - if not hundreds of thousands, then thousands of people hundreds of times! Thank you so much for all the pleasure you have given us by creating this page.
You are so beautiful, Adam.. Your voice, your face, your whole body and most of all, your heart... This song makes me feel like I'm ascending to heaven...!!!
Beyond praise, utterly angelic -- the loveliest rendition of Charlie Dalrymple's ballad I've ever heard. Would love to have seen him do this, and he must have soared in "Come Home With Bonnie Jean." Lerner and Loewe would surely approve. Thanks ever so much for posting this gem.
I just finished watching the movie Brigadoon. I watched it all the way through just to hear this song and it wasn't there!! Was this song only in the play but not the movie?? Maybe they had no one who could do it justice - at least not like Adam could.
Terreyn .. The same thing happened to me the other day .. I watched the movie all the way through but this song was not in it .. I thought I had dozed off or something but my husband said he didn't hear it either!! I can't imagine why they removed it ... seems strange to me!! I just checked Amazon movies & apparently the song was cut from the movie because it was sung by an unknown who outsang Gene Kelly .. that is a shame!! Now I know why it wasn't in the movie .. only the stage play!!
@@tatubert8210 thank you! I didn't hear the song in the movie and I couldn't understand why. Gene Kelly's massive ego is the answer. There was a version for TV with Robert Goulet as the lead. The song was in that. I don't remember the name of the singer but he was great. Guess Robert Goulet was sure of himself and didn't need reassuring.
How many years, how many times do I come here simply to find sublime beauty....countless times and forever. All the Blessings of the Universe to this fine man who brings so much perfection...and Joy to our lives.
Such a versatile singer Incredible voice. Can sing any Style Would love to see him on Broadway in anything
I wish there was a 'love' button, not just a 'like' button. It would be worn out. I never tire of these flawless vocals. Sublime.
Love this guy. I know he's all into his rock albums now and his concerts....I just ask that, please Adam, don't leave your musical theatre fans in the dust. PLEASE consider doing a Broadway album too. I could listen to Adam sing songs like this for hours on end. :)
Susie6432 I would buy that album
I have seen a clip of him singing nessun dorma acapella ! would love to hear him do that again to music
...
rock is not what Adam loves ,he was under contract after idol and sang what they wanted ,listen to his Velvet album that's more like the stuff he wants to sing .no one does a ballad like Adam
Gives me Goosebumps…… So much more than a Rock Star..
Wow, this song gives me shivers when he sings it! He has so much talent and technique
Astonishing to think Adam was showing this much talent 5 years ago, and wasn't immediately a superstar. Maybe now is his time...this recording really demonstrates the beauty and range of his voice. Magnificent.
I keep coming back to hear this, again and again. It never fails to move me. As much as I enjoy his new album, Trespassing, and wish him enormous success with it. And as much as I loved For Your Entertainment, and its accoustic EP, and was thrilled by the GlamNation Tour - twice :) I come back to this, and can't help thinking - the musical theater really missed out when they didn't acknowledge what they had - they lost a real star when Adam decided to express his artistry in recording pop.
never have I ever heard anything so beautiful in my life and my family are all singers and 1 famous actress-singer in Mexico!
Adam Lambert has such a beautiful voice. Thank you so much for sharing this.
I am sobbing....angelic and powerful and the control IS insane, INSANE
Look at him now, best voice ever!😄❤❤
THIS... is the Adam Lambert I like! Pure, no amplification, or studio technicians making him sound good..this is a LIVE performance..and THIS man should have won AMERICAN IDOL!! brilliant brilliant brilliant vocal performance on this classic Lerner & Lowe melody!!!
I've listened to this song since Adam was a contestant on AI.
Ater all these years it still gives me goosebumps. He is truly brilliant.
Paula said he would be "iconic." He is more than that!
He gives me chills when he sings this, just magnificent vocals. He has so much God given talent, it's unreal. I could listen to him day and night.
Listening to Adam is always a pleasure for me... This performance in Brigadoon gave me goosebumps... the man is amazing, will ALWAYS be a fan :)
This is live. This is perfection. This is why Brian May and Queen asked Adam Lambert to sing with them again.
astonishing breath control, not to mention pitch, everything, insanely talented man
Every time I hear Adam sing this is takes my breath away. It is just fantastic and amazing. It makes my heart feel so good. What a versatile and brilliant singer he is. Love you Adam. xxxxxx
The voice of an angel, God it just gives me CHILLS,an American treasure, wish more would appriciate this amazing talent!!!
Thanks you
Adam Lambert is so "Perfect"! Beautiful Man...."Exquisite Voice" .....Much Love to You, Adam,......from California....
Beyond Brilliant! He is so gifted!!!
How? could there be 52 haters?????? Adam is AMAZING. I would love to hear him record some classical arias just because he can and he has the training. 'Come to me, Bend to Me' is as close to a classical performance that I could find on UA-cam. I've seen him live with the American Idol tour and most recently with Queen. I will go out of my way to see him live anytime he's within striking distance of where I live. I am a professional singer/teacher and unequivocally state he has prodigious technical ability (there have been naysayers re his AI performances...'screaming'....NOT.....)....nothing short of amazing, superb technique in all genres.....combined with his natural showmanship and down to earth personality is a recipe for super stardom!!!!! I would LOVE to see him on Broadway!!!
There can be so because they are himophobic
@@vicikrzyzanowski7012 Sad
Year 2023, jealous people can't stop trolling his solo career videos as well as his videos with Queen.
I love this performance for many reasons, one being it was the start of Adam's fabulous singing career! Yes, he has done many genius performances, but this song soothes my soul and reminds me where Adam came from. I adore him!
adam would make a great phantom xx
yes ,he would
Wow. Just wow. I sing along to these, as I hear them, and I Can. Not. Even. Come. Close. to matching his purity, notes, and emotion. Wow.
Such sweet notes. Awesome vocal/breath control.
I wish the people that always say he screams to hear this. He can pull it back when he wants. Beautiful.
Wow! His voice, the accent is beautiful, his voice just melts. So beautiful!
Truly breathtaking. Once again he has blown us away with his incredible range and ability to sing anything. His versatility is standing him in good stead and we can't wait for his new album to show us more of his amazing voice.
It's not only this song - once Adam sings anything all other versions are found wanting! But this... this is simply the most beautiful and heartfelt song ever recorded.
I still fail to understand how a singer this incredible needed American Idol to get a record deal. How come? Who the fuck ignores this amazing talent? How was he not discovered? Meanwhile 'singers' these days that cant sing live to save their lives get a record deal when they're 12. And yet after 6 years, he's still underrated.
I'll never figure that one out. He should be a global icon by now, even singing with queen I thought he'd have that much more recognition. Just seems like he isn't getting the respect he REALLY DESERVES. He's #1 to me and that's all that matters.
+Riley Green yes I agree! Maybe it just needs time! I mean no matter what music he makes, no matter how handsome he is no matter how much of a great personality he is, hes still going to be underrated because hes gay :( there are many many people on the internet and real life who just label him as 'the gay singer'. Sad...
I'd guess it's partly the gay thing.
But probably more that he's so versatile, and so much of a chameleon, that the marketing types can't pin him into one of their little boxes.
If he had chosen to pursue a career as an opera singer, I think he would be world renowned by now. Trained, classical singers recognize how extraordinary his voice is. And how rare. But, he chose to be a pop singer. A great voice is not necessary, not appreciated, not noticed in that genre. Sigh.
Seems to me anytime an auditioner impressed Adam as Broadway material
I knew he was amazing on American Idol, but when I heard this the first time, his perfect voice brought me to tears. This is in my favorites list and I have to listen at least once a week. Why he is not more appreciated in the US is totally beyond all comprehension.
Adam is such a wonderful singer and person. He is the best. :)
I am back again, rejoicing with this song, the weather is warm and everything beautiful, the song is glorious! Life is GREAT, Thank you Universe! Adam going with his TOH Tours, see you soon!
I'm back again, too!
Chills & tears, 9/20/19.
Hauntingly Beautiful!
NanaAnn
Absolutely stunning! His breath control at the end beginning about 3:21 is unbelievable. Thank you so much for showing us the artist in Adam!
Adam Lambert sings like no other person on this planet...
