Unbelievable!!! Firstly Adam's performance here and secondly that no one [NOT ONE SINGLE PERSON] after witnessing all these phenomenal performances, incl at Zodiac, put up the money to sign & record this guy back then! Simply the greatest male singer I've ever heard. End of Story!
always astounds me that he diddnt even exist here, but in 2 years he is one of the most famous people on the planet, in 2 years?? Imagine what he can do in 5 or 10.
I've cried before while listening to a song. Most of the time I was an emotional wreck, that's why I started listening to sad songs. He's the only singer who can turn me into an emotional wreck, only by singing, even when I'm really happy. Well, that's talent.
Adam is putting his guts into this song. You can tell somebody broke his heart. He wipes a tear from his eye at the end... There is passion & emotion in this performance
Magical. This is a young artist (only 26 here) in complete control of his phenomenal instrument, giving a powerful, emotionally raw, vulnerable, and utterly beautiful performance showing an artistic sophistication that is well beyond his years and entirely unteachable. The guy has a natural gift for performing, and is destined to be one of the greats. I love also that he consistently remains true to himself, as he did this week throughout the AMA performance controversy. Way to go, Adam!!!
He poured out his feelings into the song and I feel it. I'm so glad that he finally made it huge in the music industry, he so rightfully belongs in it. THE greatest performer ever!
You can make us all love you....was not so long after this performance that you did exactly that...wonder if the people in the restaurant had any idea you would soon be a super star......
You can tell he feels this song in his heart and soul. How things have changed but I still come back to pre-idol ADAM and I love his idol performances and his CD. Every time I see him perform, I am thoroughly entertained!
this is THE ONLY VERSION of this song...that makes me smile and cry at the same time :) it's so beautiful..love adam's voice...just can't get anough :')
Sooo, sooo moving and beautiful - all his Upright Cabaret songs are gorgeous. I come back to them often, and also put them all on my iPod. "Come Home" is also very emotional, and "How Come You Don't Call Me Anymore" is amazing too. Seeing him live is INCREDIBLE, he owns you when you are in his audience, that voice takes you in.
This is so beautiful, especially what he says before he starts the song. So tender, funny, personable and TRUE. I would cry if I was there watching this.
What a personal song this is for Adam. I hate to think of Adam with a broken heart, but those tears are real. His voice is pure emotion. Beautifully done.
When I listen to him singing like that it's like his voice heals me of every pain I've ever been through-like there's nothing bad or wrong left in me...of in the world...
Aww i just want to hug him at the end when he cries he is so adorable and you dont have to make anyone love you adam cause it just comes naturally to us
I think that with a voice like that Adam could make anyone in this world love him!!!!!Very very touching!There is no one singing and performing the way he does,or at least for me; there is no one that can lift me up as much as I get lifted when hearing him sing!Absolutely incredible!
Oh Adam. How could someone not return your love! Your soulmate will come along, and I hope they are worthy of you! You really do deserve the best that life has to offer!! From a devoted fan for life.
He went from singing at a restruant to hitting it big time in venues across the world, and yet still remains modest. Awesome vocals, Beautiful speaker, Gorgeous man.
I sang this song for talent show. I tried to create my performance just like Adams. I succeeded. People were telling me the whole day afterwards how good I was and how they were shocked I could sing that well. It's all thanks to Adam :)
I saw this video for the first time on February 17, 2009. Yes, I actually remember the date, and it's still as powerful as it was then. Taking time today to reminisce after seeing videos of Adam's first international Glam Nation Tour shows. What an amazing talent! So happy for him that it's being recognized and loved around the world. Congrats, Adam. You've certainly earned it.
Oh my gosh. Every time I watch one of these videos, I come to love Adam more and more - just when I thought that I couldn't possibly love him anymore than I already did, I see this video. Adam is so articulate, honest, revealed. He isn't ashamed of who he is and bears no regrets.. not to mention, the amount of true emotion that goes into his performances is just mind-boggling. Adam is not only an amazing performer and vocalist, but he is also an amazing person. He is the change the world needs.
Still one of my favorite performances of all time. Gets to me everytime right in the heart. thank you ADAM. I rate you with the best like Elvis,, Celine, Michael, Amy Lee of Evenasence and Bon Jovi ADAM you are Awesome.
Everyone has their own peculiar taste & ear for music. You may not be a pop or rock guy but Adam undoubtedly can sing just about any genre and sing it extremely well. Have you watched his performances with Queen in Europe & London a couple months back? Have you heard the tracks off his latest album, Trespassing?
this video right here should be shared with everyone wround the world... he once again took a song that has been sung by so many people, and fully captured the heart of it in a way that they could not... i believe every word he sings and for those who says he's just thatrical and doesn't connect with the lyrics.. you're dead wrong and should listen to this again!!
Love this! Love u Adam! I could listen to u sing anything, after you Adam-itize it! LOL I look your style, your voice is just beautiful. Best of Luck to you! You have my vote on A.I. Wish you were discovered sooner! Where have u been, A. I. / music lovers need you! Love, Gina
He can be anybody you want him to be. He can sing anything you want him to sing. Why shouldn't he keep movin and reinventing who he is. The sky is the limit for this talented young man. Passion on many levels oozes from him. AMAZING
I loved you Adam From the very beginning!!!! You made me fall in love!!! You are the best artist i have seen ever in my life...other then Elvis..& Baby u got him beat!!!!!!!! You Go!!!! Straight to the Top!!!!You will win many many AWARDS!!! lOVE PENWILL
Adam seems to have the Golden Touch when it comes to putting his "own" to the music. This is an emotional song and he does it great justice. Amazing performer. Vote Adam!!
People who attendted to that show is soooooo lucky, what an amazing songs. I envy toward them. Adam you are unique!!!!!!!!! Best from Ciudad de Panamá, Latin America,
oh my goodness he is so amazing. he has a lot of lung too. i really love adams voice. he can make one million ppl fall in love with him every second when hes singing and he really gets into what hes singing and thats good. i love him..^^ YOU GO ADAM!
SO BEAUTIFUL THE SONG AS SUNG BY ADAM!!!!! Listen to this over and over never get tired of ADAMS beautiful vocals, interviews, or his Hot performances. He has that IT factor!!!!!!
I have come here many times to hear Adam sing this song and every time it takes my soul to the skys and the tears fill my eyes.....it just does that to me.......even now with his new cd FYE, I cant get enough.....nerver been like this about an artist before. Thank you, Adam
It's been so long since I've seen a singer who can express raw emotion like this. I knew this was a beautiful song, but hearing him sing it, is like hearing it for the first time. It makes me want to cry. He's so gifted.
Adam was singing alot of heart wrenching songs at that period in his life. I believe he did feel pain of a broken heart. I was so touched that he wiped a tear from his eye at the songs end. He is such a professional...just kept performing. I love him so.
"I Can't Make You Love Me" Turn down the lights; Turn down the bed. Turn down these voices Inside my head. Lay down with me; Tell me no lies. Just hold me close; Don't patronize. Don't patronize me. [Chorus:] 'Cuz I can't make you love me If you don't. You can't make your heart feel Something it won't. Here in the dark In these final hours, I will lay down my heart And I'll feel the power; But you won't. No, you won't. 'Cuz I can't make you love me If you don't. I'll close my eyes, Then I won't see The love you don't feel When you're holding me. Morning will come, And I'll do what's right; Just give me till then To give up this fight. And I will give up this fight. [Chorus]
this one of all time favorite adam lambert covers. Really, I can feel his pain, my eyes are tearing up every time I hear him sing this. no words for how gorgeous he sang this song ... my tears says it all.
I disagree. I think his voice keeps getting better, as well as his performance skills. His outstanding technique is still there, his vocals are unbelievable, and his charisma is something to behold. His performances with Queen wowed the band die-hard fans in the audience, and his new album is incredibly good. Perhaps he isn't tapping into the musical theater background as much when it comes to vocals, but that doesn't mean that he's worse now. Not at all.
This young man is full with charisma like Elvis, different voice but the look. I am sure Adam Lambert will be another Greatest Artist who can sing, dance and is loved by all
Oh boy, Adam, does it again! My heart has just been torn ou and left me cryingt. Never in all my life have I seen ANYONE like Adam and how he connects to his feelings in each song and takes me right in along with him! Oh, and the incredible vocal range too! Ive seen 100's of musicals, bands, singers, etc., and none can match this boy! He's a sweetie too! .
this is so beautiful, just beyond words. This would be a great song for him to sing on American Idol to show his diversity and that he can sing ANYTHING!!! We love you Adam and are all rooting for you!!!
this is probably THE MOST BEAUTIFUL song i've EVER heard! and i'm not exagerating... no one can move me the way Adam does! he captured all the emotions of this song... sadness, anger, desparation, love, loss, pain, and giving up. these are all the reasons why Adam Lambert is the greatest performer in history
Unbelievable!!! Firstly Adam's performance here and secondly that no one [NOT ONE SINGLE PERSON] after witnessing all these phenomenal performances, incl at Zodiac, put up the money to sign & record this guy back then! Simply the greatest male singer I've ever heard. End of Story!
always astounds me that he diddnt even exist here, but in 2 years he is one of the most famous people on the planet, in 2 years?? Imagine what he can do in 5 or 10.
There is nobody better than Adam.. His voice is golden
Almost eight years, and I keep coming back to this.
I've cried before while listening to a song. Most of the time I was an emotional wreck, that's why I started listening to sad songs. He's the only singer who can turn me into an emotional wreck, only by singing, even when I'm really happy. Well, that's talent.
I love his vocal and expression. Just love him to pieces. Never once have i admired a singer so so much. He is Entertainment Royalty to me.
Adam is putting his guts into this song. You can tell somebody broke his heart. He wipes a tear from his eye at the end... There is passion & emotion in this performance
I am so heartbroken watching him falling apart.....😢😢😭
Magical.

I Love Adams version of this song...Apart from George Michael`s version, this is my favourite....

I love how tipsy he is...so freaking loveable. So talented. gorgeous. I will love this boy forever, I swear.
I keep coming back here to listen to listen to this beautiful performance. He made me cry too.
good god man. that range is outrageous.
He poured out his feelings into the song and I feel it. I'm so glad that he finally made it huge in the music industry, he so rightfully belongs in it. THE greatest performer ever!
You can make us all love you....was not so long after this performance that you did exactly that...wonder if the people in the restaurant had any idea you would soon be a super star......

so beautiful, tenderly....i was crying with him....i love you Adam..you are so talented!!! the pianist is very talented too and he is awesome!
He is the best! I have been a fan since 2009!!! Awesome !!

I love Adam's version. He really can sing & lay his emotions bare on the stage. I love his sophomore album. Hope he'll make an R&B album next :)
Sooo, sooo moving and beautiful - all his Upright Cabaret songs are gorgeous. I come back to them often, and also put them all on my iPod. "Come Home" is also very emotional, and "How Come You Don't Call Me Anymore" is amazing too. Seeing him live is INCREDIBLE, he owns you when you are in his audience, that voice takes you in.
Such amazing voice and connection. Love to watch these. But feel so much joy that he is singing for the world now.
This one still gets me the most -- so much naked emotion.
This is so beautiful, especially what he says before he starts the song. So tender, funny, personable and TRUE. I would cry if I was there watching this.
Stunning! Amazing vocals, and beautiful person - inside and out.

What a personal song this is for Adam. I hate to think of Adam with a broken heart, but those tears are real. His voice is pure emotion. Beautifully done.
whoa! such an amazing voice... i can really feel his emotion..
i love him.. yeah!
Amazing! This is my absolute favorite version and singer of this song. Adam should cover it on one of his albums.
The emotion he expresses is unbelievable! Love him so much!
After all this time, this still brings a tear to my eye.
When I listen to him singing like that it's like his voice heals me of every pain I've ever been through-like there's nothing bad or wrong left in me...of in the world...
poor Adam, cried at the end of the song! so sweet
I love how much he likes to talk :)
Stunning performance!
Adam is amazing!! I love this song and the way he sang it! He put equal effort into vocals and emotion. I hope someone in the Voice covers this song.
Aww i just want to hug him at the end when he cries he is so adorable and you dont have to make anyone love you adam cause it just comes naturally to us
When they said allison was going to sing this i shouted "ADAM SANG THIS!" lol i love this. I love adam.
Really, I have tears in my eyes and goose bumps! I had never seen or heard this video! He is awesome!
Perfection.
Adam, you already made me love you. When I first saw you. And you are now giving me chills. My god. That voice.
Adam is such a sensitive soul and it comes through in his voice and music. Just beautiful.
i love him! hes fantastic i cried in this
I think that with a voice like that Adam could make anyone in this world love him!!!!!Very very touching!There is no one singing and performing the way he does,or at least for me; there is no one that can lift me up as much as I get lifted when hearing him sing!Absolutely incredible!
Oh Adam. How could someone not return your love! Your soulmate will come along, and I hope they are worthy of you!
You really do deserve the best that life has to offer!! From a devoted fan for life.
He went from singing at a restruant to hitting it big time in venues across the world, and yet still remains modest. Awesome vocals, Beautiful speaker, Gorgeous man.
he puts such emotion into it, sings from his heart, its brilliant.
He pours so much emotion into all of the songs he sings. He is a truly amazing artist, and person.
I sang this song for talent show. I tried to create my performance just like Adams. I succeeded. People were telling me the whole day afterwards how good I was and how they were shocked I could sing that well. It's all thanks to Adam :)

Did you hear what he say & listen to the lyrics of the song? The lyrics depicted what he went thru.
This is one of my favorite songs ever.
This made my day...
I love Adam in 2009, loved him last year at Gridlock, and love him this year in 2001. Can't wait to see what 2011 brings.
when I think I cant fall in love with him more...
ADAM's beauty never ceases to amaze me. His voice is so tender and touching here. I NEVER get tired of this! Sigh!
He can be anybody you want him to be. He can sing anything you want him to sing. Why shouldn't he keep movin and reinventing who he is. The sky is the limit for this talented young man. Passion on many levels oozes from him. AMAZING

SO BEAUTIFUL THE SONG AS SUNG BY ADAM!!!!! Listen to this over and over never get tired of ADAMS beautiful vocals, interviews, or his Hot performances. He has that IT factor!!!!!!

Oh yes, you can Adam! We love you already. You are fantastic, just incredible. Please Adam, do us a favor and never stop singing!
Love him to pieces. Can't stop watching and listening, I'll never get tired of him.
It's been so long since I've seen a singer who can express raw emotion like this. I knew this was a beautiful song, but hearing him sing it, is like hearing it for the first time. It makes me want to cry. He's so gifted.
I've seen this about a gazillion times but it never gets old. My favourite of his!
Adam was singing alot of heart wrenching songs at that period in his life. I believe he did feel pain of a broken heart.
I was so touched that he wiped a tear from his eye at the songs end. He is

I cannot get enough. ADAM is sheer perfection. I cannot believe the emotion he shows here. ADAM is so beautiful. I want to hug him!
"I Can't Make You Love Me"
Turn down the lights;
Turn down the bed.
Turn down these voices
Inside my head.
Lay down with me;
Tell me no lies.
Just hold me close;
Don't patronize.
Don't patronize me.
[Chorus:]
'Cuz I can't make you love me
If you don't.
You can't make your heart feel
Something it won't.
Here in the dark
In these final hours,
I will lay down my heart
And I'll feel the power;
But you won't.
No, you won't.
'Cuz I can't make you love me
If you don't.
I'll close my eyes,
Then I won't see
The love you don't feel
When you're holding me.
Morning will come,
And I'll do what's right;
Just give me till then
To give up this fight.
And I will give up this fight.
[Chorus]
adam this what we need to hear on idol your soft side. love your singing.
I hope he has all the love and light he has ever sought, right now. He deserves the world.
this one of all time favorite adam lambert covers. Really, I can feel his pain, my eyes are tearing up every time I hear him sing this.
no words for how gorgeous he sang this song ... my tears says it all.
why is this man so perfect in every way?
I love you, ADAM! I can't help but love you! To heck with whomever doesn't!!!
only his voice without words could make my cry ...
I disagree. I think his voice keeps getting better, as well as his performance skills. His outstanding technique is still there, his vocals are unbelievable, and his charisma is something to behold.
