Adam Lambert Collaborates With Muse and The Darkness
Yesterday we unveiled the covert art for Adam Lambert’s debut album, For Your Entertainment. It was appropriately glamorous, edgy (Lambert style), and striking – three things we’re sure the American Idol runner-up had requested as necessities.
Well, now we’ve got a little more info on the actual album, itself.
Thanks to the world of Twitter, Lambert recently shared a few details about a few tracks. Apparently, his people have been able to grab Muse and The Darkness for the boy!
Yesterday morning, Lambert revealed his collaborators in the following tweet (via Consequence of Sound):
“There is also a song called “Soaked” written by Muse! Also a tune called “Music Again” written by Justin Hawkins of the Darkness!”
Okay, The Darkness just seems like a perfect match in regards to the aspiring pop star. There’s no question about that pairing of over-the-top performers. However, Muse is a huge rock band that people of all genres seem to enjoy. What do Muse fans think about this?
Many have compared Muse to Radiohead because of the vocals but we do think there is a certain “glitz” to Muse’s style.
No matter how huge Radiohead gets, the DIY hipsters will always love them. Muse, on the other hand is somewhat associated with Stephanie Meyers (Twilight author)… so maybe their cred has been knocked down.
Whatever the two tracks end up sounding like, we already know one thing: It’s going to be scream-tastic (or scream-awful)!
Which track are you more excited for? “Soaked” or “Music Again?”

It makes sense to me. The song fits Adam and even though it has been leaked on youtube by Muse, Adam will make it his own. I love Muse. they are my favorite rock band these day and I love Adam Lambert so that these two should have mutual respect and some collaboration makes me down right giddy!!! Adam has a voice from the gods and Muse are the gods – LOL!! So yeah!!!

I love Muse (well-known in Europe), and The Darkness; and of course, I flove Adam´s voice. So, this is a WIN for Adam. Cannot wait until today´s air of FYE on KISS FM with Ryan. Adam´s album is now #1 for bestseller, pop, unrealeased album, and movers and shakers on Amazon. Way to go BB!

The number of top musicians, producers, and songwriters that Lambert is working with is unprecedented for a new artist. Just shows how talented he is and how highly he is regarded by many in the music industry. I can't wait to hear every song.

I've heard the demo version of Soaked (done by Muse) and it's haunting – Adam is going to tear it up and spit back another Ring of Fire. This is the one I can't wait for.

I like Muse but I have to think the Darkness song will be a better fit for Adam; I mean he really can sing just about anything and make any song sound awesome but when paired with the best material, he’ll be mind blowing!
