I thought only the winner was absolutely committed to AI-- that's one of the prizes after all, the recording contract. Makes sense that they also try to get the runner-up, but as to actually being bound?
Even if they are, they probably have more freedom than the winner.
I thought everyone had some kind of contract that remained in effect whether they won or lost?
tiggy knows this stuff better than I do, but a whole slew of the competitors are now bound to the 19 production company and ... is it Sony? Whichever label it is.
For me, I really only got Adam last night, when I saw him doing KISS and Queen. That's something I'd listen to him do. But ... aside from those groups specifically, which are absolutely iconic, how much glam rock is out there? Th Darkness was a flash in the pan.
He just comes across as a stylist to me -- one with incredible pipes -- but not someone who's going to write songs I identify with.
I liked his version of Black or White.
basically? anyone who gets camera time has signed some sort of contract that 19E gets first dibs with them. that's why Josiah(from last seasons audition rounds) has been taken to court for trying to sign with another label to get out his cd.
so, yes, i'm 100% positive that 19 is well aware of what a potential goldmine Adam Lambert is and have snatched up his contract. he won't get the same amount of press and such that Kris will, but yeah.
He'd have done fine either way. And singing the schlockfest song wouldn't have mattered.
