Never Close Our Eyes!
Never Close Our Eyes!
Soundcloud from AO
‘Never Close Our Eyes’ feels like an Adam Lambert song, but it also reflects the talents of his collaborators, Bruno Mars and Dr. Luke, who wrote and produced it. The track features a hint of Luke’s up-tempo dance sound while retaining Mars’ melodic pop sensibility. The pulsing beat and hand claps give way to an acoustic guitar during quieter portions of the song, while Lambert pushes into the upper reaches of his vocal range throughout the track.
verybody stop what you're doing, we've got a new Adam Lambert track that written byBruno Mars!
"Never Close Our Eyes" appears to be the next single off the highly anticipated album"Trespassing" and it's a HOT track. I wasn't allowed to talk about this one after we heard the album a few months ago and keeping my mouth shut about it has been difficult (but I did, because I'm afraid of Adam's publicist Shoshanna)! "Never Close Our Eyes" is without a doubt one of my favorite tracks from the new album and it has "summer anthem" written ALL over it! This song perfectly showcases Adam's powerhouse vocals and has a beat that will drag you out onto the dance floor and keep you there all night.
Give Never Close Our Eyes a listen and remain super excited for the album!
This is exactly the kind of energetic track we've come to expect, nay, demand from the vocal gymnast. Although its excellence should come as no surprise since Never Close Our Eyes was written and produced by a pair of hit-makers (Bruno Mars and Dr. Luke). And while it will be available April 17 on iTunes when you pre-order the deluxe version of Trespassing, you can give the song an official spin here!
The pulsating dance beat is provided by in-demand hit-making producer Dr. Luke. Grammy winning singer/songwriter Bruno Mars penned the song’s honest lyrics, and Adam makes them all soar with his impeccable vocals.
Adam Lambert released his new single “Never Close Our Eyes,” which is from his new album Trespassing. And honestly? We kind of love it! We had to stop listening to actually write this post and get the song up on the site. The track was written and produced by Bruno Mars and Dr. Luke, and will be available for download on April 17 via iTunes. It will be an instant grat for anyone who pre-orders the deluxe version of Trespassing.
"I wish that this night would never be over, there's plenty of time to sleep when we die," Lambert sings. "So let's just stay awake until we grow older—if I had my way we'd never close our eyes." And then his voice goes into the stratosphere like some sort of glam rock bald eagle.
Since the release of Lambert’s debut album For Your Entertainment in 2009 it has sold nearly 2 million copies worldwide. Lambert was nominated for a Grammy for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for “Whataya Want From Me” in 2010 and also released theGlam Nation Live CD/DVD and Acoustic Live! EPs. He is first American Idol to ever tour the world in support of their debut album in the year following their IDOL season. In November of this year, Adam took to the stage in the finale of the MTV European Music Awards to sing lead vocals with Queen, who were being honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award. Their captivating performance is widely regarded to be the highlight of the entire EMA ceremony and an indication of the outstanding years ahead in the career of Adam Lambert.
"Never Close Our Eyes" masterfully combines Lambert's powerhouse vocals with Mars' knack for writing catchy pop melodies and Dr Luke's crisp production effort. Mixed to perfection and produced to a tee, the track is a flaming pop romp that will surely rule top forty radio all summer long. What's particularly compelling about this new Lambert smasher is that Dr Luke's energetic production stylings don't compete with the strength of Lambert's performance.
In fact, Lambert's rock vocals add a gritty dimension to Luke's glossy soundboard work that fit the song's narrative perfectly. "Never Close Our Eyes" ultimately is a song about losing yourself in the moment without second-guessing, fear or regret. "Forget about the sunrise, fight the sleep in your eyes. I don't want to miss a second with you (. . .) If I had my way we'd never close out eyes," Lambert sings, aptly pointing out that life's beauty is everywhere and should not be missed.
Hot, hot, hot! A glistening synth meets dubstep single produced by the master Doctor Luke finds Adam Lambert sounding better than ever. Even though his very impressive first single "Better Than I Know Myself" didn't catch on, Lambert's newest single "Never Close Our Eyes" sounds like a hit.
Never Close Our Eyes is an upbeat dancefloor smash written by Bruno Mars that will get even the most reluctant on the dance floor. With it’s high energy chorus, and Lambert’s impressive vocals, it’s sure to be a summer smash.
Adam Lambert tweeted a link to his new single today and I fah-reek-eng love it! Never Close Our Eyesshowcases Lambert’s incredible vocal range and strength and sets his sophomore album Trespassing up for big, big expectations.
Infusing the track with a high energy dance bassline, Lambert’s single was produced by hitmaker Dr. Luke and written by the incomparable Bruno Mars. The only thing that would have made this song even better would have been to hear Lambert and Mars singing together. *Head explodes*
It was announced today that Never Close Our Eyes will be his official second single offTrespassing, and I think it could be the biggest hit of his career.

Queen To Play Hammersmith
Queen with Adam Lambert – Despite Cancelled Sonisphere, UK Concerts To Go Ahead
Just two weeks after the shock cancellation of Sonisphere 2012 where they were due to headline with singer Adam Lambert, rock band Queen has announced they are to go ahead with a UK concert appearance this summer after all.
The band today announced that the highly anticipated pairing of Queen and Lambert will instead take place at London’s HMV Hammersmith Apollo over two nights, July 11 and 12.
In the announcement the band also promised to endeavour to give priority booking to those who had held tickets for their Knebworth concert.
Tickets will go on sale next week, first to Queen fans and Sonisphere ticket holders and then on general sale.
Says a band spokesperson, “Queen acted immediately in looking for an alternative venue in an aim to avoid disappointing all those fans who had so desperately looked forward to seeing them at Knebworth. Coming in the lead into the Olympics, most of the venues they first approached were unavailable, being taken as official London Games 2012 venues. As the setting of some of the band’s best remembered concerts, the idea of returning to this historic Hammersmith venue really appealed to them.”
Said Brian May: "Somehow this feels right - The Odeon is a big part of our history, and its atmosphere is second to none. It's the perfect place to acknowledge our faithful fans, and will be a fitting return to our roots!"
Roger Taylor adds: "We had made up our minds to play in the UK this year, so play we will ! Following the collapse of the Sonisphere organisation we didn't want to let down all those people expecting to see us live!"
Speaking from the US, Adam Lambert said: “I’m so thrilled that Queen found a way to ensure that the fans will get to see this event this summer. I can’t wait to be in London to perform with Queen for these incredibly special shows!”
Originally known as the Hammersmith Odeon, the venue was the scene of four sold-out Queen concerts in late November/early December 1975, as well as a special Christmas Eve show; and the band returned for a triumphant end-of-tour show in December 1979, playing the opening night of a series of UNICEF concerts for the people of Kampuchea. Amongst fans, the Hammersmith shows continue to be regarded as some of Queen’s most exceptional. Broadcast live on national radio and TV, the Christmas show has become one of the most heavily bootlegged in the band's career, and an edited version of the show has been recently shown by the BBC. But a high quality official release DVD is now planned, unedited, which will include the audio of all of the songs which were not originally transmitted on TV.
Tickets for Queen + Adam Lambert concerts at HMV Hammersmith Apollo on Wednesday July 11 and Thursday July 12 will first be available on a 24-hour presale to Queen Online subscribers, Queen Fan Club members and Sonisphere ticket holders from 9am on Tuesday April 17. Pre-sale details will be sent on to these communities separately via e-mail.
General sales start Wednesday 18th April at 9am atwww.hmvapollo.com and through Ticketmaster. Caller lines: HMV Tickets 08432 221 0100 / Ticketmaster 08448 444 748.
Tickets are priced at £65.00, £70.00 and £75.00 plus £6 booking fee on all prices. For tickets by post an additional charge will apply.
