"Pop Rock at its finest"

REVIEWED ITEM: Whataya Want From Me, CD SINGLE
REVIEWER: Susan

While this is not my most favorite track from the album For Your Entertainment (which is chock full of great songs), I do really like it. Adam gives a powerful, emotional vocal to this pop rock song. You really feel the song's lyrics, they don't just wash over you passively. Amazingly, if you have seen the various performances he has given of the song (on television and radio, as well as concert footage), he never sings it the same way twice!

Adam Lambert is a master of song interpretation. In the genre of pop music, he is the rare singer who actually pays attention to what the lyrics say, and gets the audience to hear them!

"Great song by a great artist"

REVIEWED ITEM:Whataya Want From Me, CD SINGLE
REVIEWER: Holley

Whataya Want From Me, written by Pink and Max Martin, is beautifully sung by Adam Lambert on this CD. The song opens with quiet restraint and builds in passion and frustration, as a story of a person who doesn't understand what is expected of him in a relationship unfolds. As always, Adam's vocals are flawless. The arrangement is wonderfully crafted and complete to the smallest detail. (Actually, the depth of the arrangements on all of the tracks of the parent album, For Your Entertainment, are stellar - if you can get past the soaring vocals long enough to pay attention to them.) I think this song has a broad appeal across multiple genres. Do yourself a favor and listen to it. Then go listen to the rest of the album.

"WWFM is a great single!!!"

REVIEWED ITEM: Whataya Want From Me, CD SINGLE
REVIEWER: Music Lover

WWFM is Adam's first hit single of many to come off the "For Your Entertainment" albumn.
I highly recommend the whole albumn, and better yet seeing him live in the Glam Nation tour.
There is nothing like seeing this man live. Also, this single can be ordered from the UK
and you get a larger insert with a fold out picture of Adam. They have two versions, each with a different remix added.

"Great singer"

REVIEWED ITEM: Whataya Want From Me, CD SINGLE
REVIEWER: M. Fields

I think Adam has a wonderful voice. He's a real power singer and he knows where his diaphram is and uses it well. So many of todays singers sing from the chest or throat and though the nose. Although they may have good voices, you will never get to hear the full range because they are not good singers technically. Some people are born with the knowledge of good singing and some people have to learn it. Still others just don't get it. Adam uses his skills well and the songs on this album suit his voice well. Whataya want from me and If I had you are the standouts on this album. I'd never even heard of him or knew he was on American Idol. I heard a woman singing these songs in a karaoke bar in LA and I liked them so much that they stuck with me. I sought them out on line and the rest is history. I can understand those who don't like his voice or his music but let's leave his sexual orientation out of it. It has no bearing on the man's talent.

"Adam Lambert Whataya Want from Me Pt. 2"

REVIEWED ITEM: Whataya Want From Me, CD SINGLE
REVIEWER: R.N.

You don't have to like both songs on this two song CD. The first offering and the original version of Adam Lambert's "Whataya Want from Me" will become a classic and you will have to sing it with him out loud no matter how many times you hear it. You will wear this CD out just for this one song.
On the flip side the second version of the same song has a disco quality to it. This style actually takes away from the song and the heart piercing words are cheapened. You can't hear Pink, the writer of this song, and her amazing vocals like you do on the original version. All in all I would purchase this CD again and it will make you hungry for more Adam Lambert music.

"Never disappointed"

REVIEWED ITEM: Whataya Want From Me, CD SINGLE
REVIEWER: Cheryl

I've loved Adam Lambert since I first saw him perform on American Idol. This young man has it all. Voice, range, stage presence, emotion and of course his great looks. Adam can sing anything and he has done so. He has fun with his audience and people performing with him. Whataya Want From Me is a great Cd and makes me want more, more, more.

"The limo shots especially are so smoking hot!"


Reviewed Item: Whataya Want From Me MUSIC VIDEO
Reviewer: Mary102


OMG!!! Friday came early - YEA! :-)

I love the vid! He looks so gorgeous in it - the limo shots especially are so smoking hot! I'm also really digging the "addressing the camera" stuff - very cool. The vid is definitely taking on the multiple levels of the song - about fame, about fans, about personal relationships. Love the understated look in the apartment too.

Typically a vid like this would have some corny love story attached to it - so I love the different route they took with it in this approach!

"Can't believe this was one of the songs I thought I disliked"

Reviewed Item: Whataya Want From Me MUSIC VIDEO
Reviewer: vorona


I really like that. A lot.

Can't believe this was one of the songs I thought I disliked when the snippets first arrived. I love it. Like the video, it's concrete enough on its own but also...adaptable, I guess. You can project your own ideas and experiences onto what we see in that video or just watch it for itself.

When we just had the first piece, I thought maybe it was the two sides of him singing to each other -- celeb versus boyish human. Or that he was singing to the press. Looks like I was wrong. But I do like that we never see the face of who he's singing to.
