My highlight: "There I Said It"  - wonderful, breathtaking.
And it's good to hear Tove Lo together with Adam. They match really good. Quite a hymn.

To me there is not a single bad song on the album.

I did a quick listen: the Ali Payami house infused tracks are BRILLIANT.

Sterling Fox Covers Adam Lambert's 'Ghost Town': Exclusive Video Premiere

After working with Adam Lambert on cuts from his upcoming third album The Original High (June 12), singer-songwriter Sterling Fox hit the studio to record a live rendition of the LP's lead single "Ghost Town," which he co-wrote with the American Idol alum.
Fox initially wrote the track with Karlsson after he became inspired during a drive through the Mojave Desert outside of Las Vegas. "I stumbled upon this old ghost town near Needles, Nevada, and the song idea kind of popped up from that," he explains. "Parts of the song were also inspired by disillusionment with Hollywood and the kind of fame factory approach to music that exists there."

Fox originally wrote the demo with writer Tobias Karlsson before working on Lambert's version with Max Martin and Ali Payami. "I've been playing the song live for some time at little gigs around New York. I [shot] a video for my version of the song to just give people a different take on it."

I love it. And "world" is way more depressing than "heart".

[ShockdioN]

I like his version

[B Steady]

I was just listening to the stream, very good!
I'll buy the CD in a few hours

Except for the songs we knew about, Max has also produced "Lucy", so that makes it an extra CHEIRON song on this album.

After Hours is the only song without MXM/Wolf Cousins involvement.

Rumors (my baby Ebba killed it <3) reminds me of Lil Wayne's Lollipop in spots while Evil In The Night's (instrumental) chorus sounds like a mix of Duck Sauce's Barbara Streisand and Charli XCX's Break The Rules.

[j.fco.morales]

To me, Evil In The Night is like a Rudimental song.

[B Steady]

WHAT AN ALBUM ! ! !
That's all I can say for now.

Fav tracks: Ghost Town, There I Said It, Rumors, Things I Didn't Say

My secret favorite part is the build-up to the The Light-chorus. Brilliant production in general. Hats off, Lulou!

Amazing background vocals by Max Martin btw!

The Light is my favourite so far.
Reminds me a lot of Gorgon City though.

Whoever decided to throw in that "Moo" is a genius. Now everybody's gonna talk about it! Wouldn't be surprised if it was Shellback, haha.

Also, anyone noticed Shellback and Max didn't write together on the album? According to the credits posted by B Steady.

After reading the Cheiron interview -thank you hitmkr for the transcription, amazing work- it makes sense: Max mentoring all these talented dudes and just getting things together and suggest things to make it better.
