KathyK.Jan 1, 201010More good songs on this CD than most. Some of the songs are very clever and catchy...good to dance to. Some are slow and tender. What a nice variety!

ConnieBJan 7, 20109Wonderful but not as good as it could have been. Next time make sure his voice shines and is not covered up by the background noise, please.

SharonDDec 2, 200910It's the first music I've really liked since the 80s. And I've been around a long time (70 years).

JonNov 23, 200910An eclectic mix of sounds, ranging from pop, rock, dance, retro glam, etc. Lambert is a musical chameleon here, which is part of why this record is so brilliant. There's something here for everybody, and not many people can pull off such a record with such an amazing voice.

SarahKNov 24, 200910My favorite CD in a long time. Definitely entertaining!

MandyWNov 25, 20099OK, but everything I was hoping for but wildly good. My guess? The people who Zero the album are people who just hate the guy - who has, nonetheless, enormous vocal talent.

dougNov 26, 200910I love Adam's amazing vocals that's at the core of this eclectic album.. enjoyed all the songs!

ColleenDec 1, 20099I wish "Mad World" had been included on this CD. Although I like it, I would've liked something along that line that was less "produced" and more just Adam's amazing vocals featured. (This is why I gave this CD a 9 rather than a 10).

AnzalF.Dec 11, 200910It was extraordinary for his first album. Usually ppl in their first albums have only two or three good songs. It was different and shame on the people who aren't ready to accept different bit you soon will you learnt to accept lady gaga...it's a matter of time you do Adam!!!!

AlexandriaHDec 1, 200910The album feels like a playlist, a song for every mood, and it works wonderfully. His soaring vocals and the blend of rock, pop, electronic, and glam elements makes "For Your Entertainment" really fun.

jordanhDec 2, 200910This is a highly eclectic collection of sounds, rhythms and off the wall vocals that only an artist with the creativity and talent of adam lambert could produce. i applaud his versatility; as well as the artistic and vocal sensibility to be able to elicit the full gamut of emotions from the listener.

AFanDec 2, 20099Incredible debut. Eclectic and fun and emotive all at once, representative of the artist Adam really is. A good indication of even better things to come on future albums. I've been off music for some time now since there seems to be less and less real musical and vocal ability in the charts. Cliché as it may sound, this album honestly makes me want to listen to music again!

PiaEDec 2, 200910I was leaning towards a 9, but since several people have given it a 0, which I don't think anybody deserves, I feel inclined to give it a 10. It really is a great CD. Who cares if it isn't cohesive, I like to listen to great songs, and this CD has many. I absolutely loooveee Sleepwalker, Soaked, and Fever, and I don't dislike any of the songs. Great debut CD!

RoseJ.Dec 2, 200910I love every song on Adam's album. It is so refreshing to listen to an album that includes a little bit of everything. Adam's vocals are outstanding. I cannot stop listening to it everyday. Way to go Adam you did not disappoint your fans. I Love Adam Lambert!

chrishDec 2, 20099Seems like this rating cherry-picked every negative comment from each review while ignoring the good ones. Adam did a fine job on this album- It is the music he enjoys. His vocals are excellent as usual- the songs are eclectic as he promised- something for everyone. Would like to hear more of that glorious voice- don't hide it in the music Adam.

CookieSDec 2, 20099This is the first CD I have ever purchased that I like every song. I think Adam is right on when he said we are in an itunes-playlist era when people purchase singles rather than albums, so he wanted to create a variety of genres on the album. A variety platter, is what he called it. Some critics dont get that point. There are a number of top then hits on this album....that's exciting.

SinanADec 4, 200910It's a fantastic album, channeling good ol' 70s rock, queen, and even scissor sisters! Honestly it's such an enjoyable album to listen to.

LindaDDec 7, 200910I love about half the songs and really like the rest. There a song for whatever mood you're in. Today, I can't get F-f-f-fever out of my head!

MattyH.Dec 7, 200910Adam Lambert has released the most diverse record from an "Idol"-alum. From dance tracks like "If I Had U" to ballads like "Sleepwalker", all the songs are great. There's not a single skip.
-
-
DawnDec 7, 200910*Love* this album. I've noticed that critics pick and choose different songs that they favor. Obviously, Adam got something right in creating the mix - something for everyone, and it differs from person to person.

DeniseNov 24, 200910Can't stop playing this album. Every track is terrific!

MelissaNov 24, 200910Love this cd. Every day I get up humming a different song. There is a song for every mood and Adam's voice shines through beautifully.

ShariENov 24, 200910It would be impossible for me to actually choose which song I like best on this album. Adam has done an amazing job, delivering exactly what he promised... it makes me want to dance, and cry, and sway, and laugh and smile... it just envokes every emotion. And his voice is so amazing. My score? Perfect.

The songs sound great but feel strangely stuffy--Entertainment seems like a disc that was overthought.
-
Lambert sounds larger than life on these, just like he wants to be, and if there’s no sense of danger here, at least there’s a lot of pure pop pleasure here, more than any immediate post-Idol album has ever delivered.
-
Lambert’s ambition and undeniable vocal chops make it easy to forgive an occasionally over-reaching record that ultimately feels like a rough draft for an interesting career.
