Move over Bocelli. Adam Lambert’s rendition of “The Prayer,” which he sang on the holiest evening of the Jewish calendar (Kol Nidre) may send Italian tenors back to training. Listen to his duet with Temple of the Arts’ cantor, Illysia Pierce here.

Adam is so much more talented then most singers/dancers in the professional world today.  Why has he been overlooked?  If he is not elected this year’s AI, I will never ever watch AI again for then I will know it is political and corrupt.

ADAM DOESN’T NEED TO WIN, WITH THE EXPOSURE HE’S HAD HE WILL BECOME A HUGE STAR IN NO TIME.  I WOULD GIVE IT TO ONE OF THE OTHERS, TO START THEM OFF WITH ALL THE HELP THEY CAN GET.  ADAM’S BEEN AROUND, HE WILL GET A CONTRACT WITH A RECORD LEVEL IN NO TIME.

Adam has proven his talents to millions of fans not only in America but all over the world. i will always continue to support hi because i believe that he’s good with his craft

I would hope that he might sing this song this week….but it probably will never fit rock and roll.  The man deserves better than he is getting in the press.  Why do we always want to intrude in peoples personal lives?  That he is an incredible entertainer along with his amazing vocals should be plenty for all of us.  He lays it out there every week.

Adam Lambert has an Angels voice. He truly is awesome to listen to. I can not wait for him to come out with a CD.
God bless you Adam.

Comment by Allison on 5/02/09 at 5:55 pm

Is anyone having trouble playing this?  I get a big empty screen.

Comment by David on 5/03/09 at 12:50 am

It would really be great for all the vote for him. At the end of the day, american idol is a voting show. Yes, he can have a great voice but it doesn’t count if he doesn’t get the vote. This is a contest, wherein only 1 will be chosen a winner. He entered this competition to win and i hope we can all support him.  I for one don’t want to see him in bottom 2 again.

Adam is the first true original singer and all around entertainer to be seen on Idol. I predict he will be the biggest success from this show to date. Win or loose he will be BIG. Those who judge him on his sexual origin should be watching some other show like a Nazi move.

So frustrated! I also got the big blank screen - even after a few failed attempts to download Adobe Shockwave update - then what I thought was finally a successful download. Why is nothing on the computer ever easy? :(

Some have said they are having trouble accessing “The Prayer” hosted at Temple of the Arts’ website.
The direct link is above, but if that doesn’t work try the address below:

You can also go to their homepage and click on the link there.

Adam is the most talented guy ever on this show.  He should record this song the Prayer, it is so beautiful

Comment by Gail miller on 5/19/09 at 5:43 pm

Comment by lexsis on 5/20/09 at 12:29 pm

Adam Lambert is truly gifted. The best singer ever on the American Idol stage!

Comment by Brenda on 5/20/09 at 4:53 pm

awesome,awesome,awesome. adam send goosebumps up my arms every time he sings.

Comment by wayne on 5/21/09 at 8:14 am

Adam didn’t win “American Idol” because he is more than that , he is a “World Idol”!.

Comment by Patty Ann Smith on 5/21/09 at 10:52 am

I am sook dissapointed that Adam didn’t win! I will buy all of anything he records. People should demand a recount! I am angry that a talent like him was. Outdone by Allen. That’s the last Idol season I will ever watch. Please let us know that he is ok and he is loved by many fans & please record soon as I love to hear his voice.

For whatever reason, DIFFERENT always threatens others. Why does that have to be ? It is a pitiful shame.
Hang in there Adam, work hard on your first CD, for we truly do love you for just being you, and what a total package you are. See you on the “Idol” tour this summer - I can’t wait ! Love your simmering blue/green eyes, and your little bit dirty, flirty smile that just melts my heart. Just keep being good and being you ! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this season and all of the music that you made, and for your hard work, great imagination and your slammin’ dressing style (all Adam ‘traces’). You are truly THE ADAM BOMB !!
(( Warm hugs to you Adam ))
Sorry, a girl has to try!!!

Greetings:  It sure is anoying - there are so many journalists out there who are just down right dumb.  Ugh !!! They don’t ever make a point of researching data and finding out what’s behind a music star or singing star they are writing about - they depend upon other knowledgeable people to keep them informed.  Bummer - it isn’t a bit right.  That’s my $.02 two cents worth.

Adam Lambert has made me laugh, cry, swoon, listen, and think. His gift is God given - absolutely no doubt about that. I would like to see a calm CD for us over 60 crowd.
My kids think I am obsessed…..Just an extraordinary talent - doesn’t come along all that often.

Comment by carol on 5/25/09 at 5:39 pm

Adam is just great and if anyone should be singing a duet on a CD with him it should be Cantor Ilysia Pierce the singer he did “The Prayer” with.  Together there sound is awesome, talk about getting goosebumps.

Comment by Dorothy from L.A. on 5/26/09 at 8:33 pm

I too, am getting nothing but a big blank screen.  I can’t wait to hear “The Prayer”.  I’m also wondering if Cantor Ilysia Pierce is related to the famous Cantor Pierce from years ago.  p.s. I’m not that old but my grandfather was a lover of cantatorial renditions so the thought crossed my mind.  I hope by tomorrow I can hear “The Prayer”.  It’s very late and I’m usually in bed at 9:00pm and here it is 11:15pm and I’m still searching and reading more and more about Adam Lambert.  Goodnight and God Bless the music industry for giving us much to ponder.  Phyllis Felcher Sarasota Florida

Can someone please fix the link.  I can’t wait to hear it!!

Comment by Jayne on 5/29/09 at 10:25 am

Most creative singer I’ve ever heard! One of the best ( or the best) out there in many, (many) years! Mad Mad world song was astonishing as were others. I didn’t know a person could sing like that! Best Wishes Adam! RT

Comment by RT on 6/09/09 at 2:52 pm

I love Adam.  I am his number one fan.  Enough said.  Just listen to him.

Comment by Hallie Prest on 6/09/09 at 9:11 pm

i love adam so much smilesmile

Comment by jihane on 6/21/09 at 12:36 pm

If you want to hear him sing The Prayer go to youtube and search adam lambert the prayer.  It’s well worth he.  He is amazing!!!  He does it better than Josh Groban.

Comment by CharliGirl on 8/04/09 at 8:20 pm

Oh, this song is so amazing.
