Whole Lotta Love

This probably won't be up for long. It's Adam Lambert's studio recording of Whole Lotta Love.
Warning: bad guitar solo at midpoint, but just listen through it.

For those of you who don't follow Idol, Adam's performance on Tuesday was the first time that Led Zeppelin had given permission for a song of theirs to be used on Idol. I would love to know, but suppose we never will, if LZ approved it specifically for Adam or if Idol was willing to pay the high pricetag for the song for Adam (and hadn't been willing to for anyone else). Or maybe LZ has come to the realization that exposure on Idol brings sales of the original recordings.

The story of what-is-Idol-to-do-about-Adam's-gayness creeps forward. For the show, he sang the line "WOOOMAAAAAAAAN, you need love". In the recording, he changed "woman" to "baby" and de-emphasized it. (So far this season, he has avoided lyrics with female pronouns or changed them to something neutral.) In the results show Wednesday, when he was asked how he enjoyed Tuesday's performance, Adam said it was a thrill to sing Led Zeppelin and "I liked my outfit". Bless him and that lack of filter.
