Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I'm gettin' older, I think I'm agin' well
I wish someone had told me I'd be doin' this by myself
There's reasons that I'm thankful, there's a lot I'm grateful for
But it's different when a stranger's always waitin' at your door
Which is ironic 'cause the strangers seem to want me more
Than anyone before (Anyone before)
Too bad they're usually deranged
[Verse 2]
Last week, I realized I crave pity
When I retell a story, I make everything sound worse
Can't shake the feeling that I'm just bad at healing
And maybe that's the reason every sentence sounds rehearsed
Which is ironic because when I wasn't honest
I was still bein' ignored (Lyin' for attention just to get neglection)
Now we're estranged
[Chorus]
Things I once enjoyed
Just keep me employed now
Things I'm longing for
Someday, I'll be bored of
It's so weird
That we care so much until we don't
[Verse 3]
I'm gettin' older, I've got more on my shoulders
But I'm gettin' better at admitting when I'm wrong
I'm happier than ever, at least, that's my endeavor
To keep myself together and prioritize my pleasure
'Cause, to be honest, I just wish that what I promise
Would depend on what I'm given, mmm (Not on his permission)
(Wasn't my decision) To be abused, mmm
[Chorus]
Things I once enjoyed
Just keep me employed now, mmm
Things I'm longing for, mmm
Someday, I'll be bored of
It's so weird
That we care so much until we don't
[Outro]
But next week, I hope I'm somewhere laughing
For anybody asking, I promise I'll be fine
I've had some trauma, did things I didn't wanna
Was too afraid to tell ya, but now, I think it's time
#AdamLambert #GettingOlder #MusicVideo - Hudba
As someone who's been liking Adam since 2009 this mv made me cry, like literally reminds me of the old days of following his music and touring updates from American Idol till now. And all of a sudden it's 2023 and my fav singer is peacefully singing "I'm getting older". OMG. I was just not ready to see him wearing the old makeup on him and singing and telling his story in such a mature and beautiful way. And the song is soooo good! Still glamorous in his way!🥲🥲🥰🥰
First heard it on Spotify and after second verse' message, tears. Hits home.
Came to check his visual artistry and I love it.
it’s actually a cover of billie eilish’s song getting older!
He literally copied Billie's! Billie put up personal stories & photos while performing this song live. Adam stole her art & mimicked Billie ewww💀
Feeling the same way... "things I once enjoyed, just keep me employed". My eyes teared up. 😢
I agree I cried to I can relate! It is so Brave of Adam to tell his story to all of us Glamberts and to feel safe! Thank you Adam for sharing your story I am very proud of you! You are an amazing person and I mean that from the bottom of my heart! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Crying to see my hero getting older but still rocking out and still himself....Brilliant artistry Adam. Your voice is magnificent.
"despite his age". Y'all - he's only 41 😂🤦♀️
Me too. I adore his voice the best I've heard & I'm 68 yrs.old . love Adam his honesty of self is pure I love you Adam !!!!!
@@itsme1092 when he first came out he looked completely different. And that was around 2009. So yes he definitely looks older and has been traveling the world. So yes.
Adam. You saved me, ten years a go one of you're sings stopped me from ending everything I was only ten years old and had suffer from abuse. Now I'm three years clear from self-harm, you're my hero Adam, thank you.
Please love yourself no matter what the ugly will always be in existence but you are stronger that you think don’t let the ugly win, you have a purpose in life that God gave you , don’t ever think of harming yourself God loves you and I don’t know you but I send you many blessings and a big mom hug 🤗!
I will be 70 this month and have loved Adam since I first saw him on TV. What a beautiful talent!
I'll be 73 next month, and sometimes it truly is 'so weird' looking in the mirror, and at old photos, and remembering when I turned 40 and then 50, 60, 65... And I'm still creative and enjoying - which I'm sure you will be too, Adam, at any age. Thank you, this video made me smile...it's beautiful.🥰😘💖
Turning 50 was hard , but that's life we all get older ! Love your music Adam , you have such a beautiful voice . Forever a fan 🤟
A beautiful lady at any age......❤
Hi ❤ I agree with that happiness, but was also choked up at the same time. 😢 Adam, sensational as always. 🎉❤
Xxx
❤❤❤❤❤
My mom passed away last night. She was a huge fan of his. This song took on a different meaning for me. Love the video!
So sorry for your loss! 🙏🏻 💛
Im so so so so so sorry ma'am
I'm sorry for your loss friend ♥️🌹🙏
Donna, she had good taste and maybe was ahead of her time? This song is fitting upon her death…I hope you have wonderful memories of your mother. X 🐑🐑🇳🇿🇳🇿NZ
So very sorry, my most sincere condolences x
I don't think I've ever heard the influence of his work with Queen coming through as much as in this. I love this. It's thoughtful, witty and packed with his trademark amazing vocals. We're lucky we have Adam Lambert. I hope he has good people round him. I would hate to think of him being or feeling vulnerable, he has such a rare talent - I hope that he, and it, are both being protected. I would love to be able to enjoy it for many, many years to come!
Exactly 💯
I heard the Queen influence immediately. I adore this version of the song. Hope he sings this live in concert ..
💖
Aha, yes! I was like “We got a funky poppy UK pop-rock influence here” and that explains it perfectly
I also like Lucy 3rd album.
@@doloresweatherspoon-bb4ul yes! It’s the icing on the cake that Sir Brian is playing guitar on that track, too! X
@@melanieweston3565 did you see Q+AL 2018 Concerts? They performed Lucy.💝
You can hear the influence Queen has had on him. The intro sounds very Queenish. Love Adam!
Verdade!Me soou muito o Queen Comentei isso com o meu filhol Cantar com o Queen aprimorou a sua voz,a sua interpretação!Queen e Adam são incríveis!
I also want to say that this song really struck a nerve with me (in a good way). My 48th birthday is coming up in just a few days, and I am "getting older" myself. I am fast approaching 50. I find myself looking in the mirror and checking my face and neck for lines, wrinkles, bags, sags, you know, all of the typical aging things that we worry about. I love that the message of this song is that it's ok to grow older. We become wiser with age. The lines on our faces are ok, because they are a sign of maturity and wisdom. Just really loving the message of this song. And I just pre ordered a signed copy of the vinyl album. So excited. Happy birthday to me!
Embrace your young age. I'll be 60 this year and still dance like no one is watching every time Adam graces us with his beautiful voice and soul 💜💜💜
@@babyyoda2186 keep on dancing!
Happy Birthday to you. Getting older is nothing to be ashamed about, it's looking forward to new wiser more accomplished you.
@@ashifaahamed1111 aahh.. thank you!
Jennifer, stop worrying about the wrinkles, etc. It's going to happen no matter what, unless you die young. 😊
Yes!!!! My favorite music man, singing again! More to love!👍🤗♥️💕
Well, he's clearly STILL one of the greatest voices in popular music today. His technical prowess, range and control continue to blow my mind. Scary to think it was nearly 15 years ago he first appeared on American Idol....time really does creep up on you faster than you realise! Long live Queen Adam!
❤and so say I.xxxx
I am a 78 yr old widow and fully appreciate these lyrics and sung so expressively. Love you Adam❤xxxx
My sister-in-law died suddenly last week and I wound up an antique clock and keep it ticking as a constant reminder that each second that passes is one we won't get back. Remember to LIVE.
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I'm so sorry to hear that and so sorry for your loss dear friend
Adam has the best vocals out of any current male artist in the industry.
The best of the best
I agree 💯 Percent!
yes but freddie mercury is the best
He is amazing. A true artist!
I’ve never watched American Idol except for the later part of his season after visiting my mother and heard him as she watched and I was enthralled by his exceptional voice. I watched the documentary about him joining Queen and he is hands down one of the most phenomenal singers in the history of male vocals I’d say. He’s perfect for Queen and just as good of a singer as Freddie Mercury in all honesty. That puts him at the top😊👍
As a 61 year old fan, this is so thoughtful and amazing, didn't think I could appreciate your artistry any more than I do at this moment.
I am also a 61-year-old fam. I also love Adam.
I appreciate him covering this Billie Eilish song. I just kind of hope he would have acknowledged that it’s not his original song. It’s a cover.
@@sandraversteeg1259, ❤to Adam from Ukraina. I'm have 55 years old. 😊
I am 62 now and when I see you're sparkling eyes.......I smile❤ but I also know: the eyes are the mirror of our soul. With love from Amsterdam again ❤
Adam, you never fail to surprise me. A true artist.
Adam is brilliant, really. Adore you Adam. 🌹😘
I will always "enjoy" your voice, Adam. It just doesn't get any better than hearing you sing.
You make this world better. Love U in every way.
Oh yeah.... I'm not getting any younger!!! I'm ageing getting older yet gracefully!!! Beautiful song...
Age is a number, Adam’s voice, his looks and those sexy eyes will live on and on ❤❤❤❤
I agree!
Adam is not just a human, he is an angel, his voice so incredible ! 🤗 thank you for your hard work !! I’m always impatient to discover what’s come next 🩷
This man, is hands down the best vocalist I've ever heard! I've been a huge fan since his AI audition!
Yup, me too! When Simon Cowell said his voice was "too theatrical/musical", I think it was only because he knew that his talent was amazing and he wanted to keep his cards close to his chest about that. But it was SO amazing that we could all see it! Do you remember his outrageous version of "Ring of Fire" in Country Week? OMG! I wasn't sure that he would get the votes to stay in that week! But when he did Sam Cooke "A Change is Gonna Come" in the final, well... I have never heard a finer vocal (male or female) before or since. His vocal folds better be insured for at least a billion dollars!
Me too he is the best ❤
Same ,he was effortless in that audition!
Glambert forever 💚💙
OMG Adam! This video is pure GENIUS. It brings out all the different emotions. Love it! Love you!
Watching Adam play "old man" made me giggle more than I thought it would! No matter what age, he'll still have that magic twinkle in his eye, and magic aura radiating from his heart to everyone. (And he knows damn well he'll age like fine wine, just like his dad!)
Hitting 50 last fall was a milestone, and this song, like most of Adam's songs, came right on time. It's okay to feel wistful about the years past, but keep moving forward in strength and wisdom. We should all be so blessed to grow older.
Thank you, Adam, for this song and for all your years of making us feel everything. And for making me giggle! ❤😂
I'm pretty sure that when he'll actually get old, Adam will be one of the senior citizens that refuse to take crap from anyone. You know the type - "Don't you tell me what to do, young ones, I've seen sh!t in this life you can't even imagine!" And he will be completely accurate in that...
This video makes me realize what a brilliant actor Adam is in addition to being a brilliant vocalist and performer. His expressions are simply priceless. So expressive!!!!
His voice is still as good as when I first heard him on Idol
No, it's gotten better since Idol
I still think he's beautiful I just love looking at him and his voice is absolutely outrageous!
Those eyes have hypnotised me from for your entertainment to now love Adam Lambert ❤️❤️❤️
Adam has quite literally saved my life, in my darkest moments I can throw some of his music on and feel completely at peace.
Same bro.
Glad we made it. 🤜🤛
He has a way of just soothing your soul.
Your so very talented my darling boy in so many ways xxx
I’m getting older. 50 today! I’m an Aquarian like Adam! 🎉 gotta love him ❤
Adam just keeps getting better and better 💙
First time I heard him sing on tv I knew he was a super star. Best male vocalist in years.
Wow his vocal range is incredible!
This beautiful man and his beautiful music are ageless .. . 🌹
I'm 64 and finally you're my age! LOL - great song and video by the best vocalist. Thank you, Mr. Lambert!!
Thank you so very much for being so talented and gifted. Seriously thank you
God, what a beautiful voice! Mmm love 💘 Adam! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🎵🎵🎵
16 years later and I’m still a die hard fan! I just wish the concert I got tickets to didn’t get cancelled, hopefully one day I can afford to see you again❤
Another masterpiece from the king of vocals 👌⭐
What a very lovely voice 💜
He is amazing looking
You look so gorgeous and I can’t wait for your new music video and I’ll see it on time 🌹💝💖🎁🎉🍾🥂
Adam Lambert is my favorite American Idol alumni since I listen his cover songs on the High Drama album it was outstanding!!
Check out his Velvet album.its a masterpiece
@@Elisa-nc5et I did listen to Velvet.
I was a loyal idol fan after Adam it ruined idol for me because he set the bar so high!
@@lbabytutorials4852 Me too I got a noticed by him in HOFAH music video I’m emotional
You are WONDERFUL, inside and out! This 67 yr. old white widow woman living with her cat LOVES watching your videos and listening to your music. THANK YOU for sharing your gift with us!! MUCH LOVE!! Deb.
Thank you for being there.And thank God that he gave you to the world. Adam your voice is beautiful!!!
Adam, I’m a deranged stranger who wants you!!!! ❤❤❤ This video is everything.
This definitely pertains to me, because on the 24, I do get another year older .....🐨💜💥so excited for some new Banger music....😉😉😉😉
I love this work. "Things I once enjoyed, just keep employed now" breaks my heart. Highly relatable. Each line and the final "Meh, walk away." Hits the nail on the head!!! Keep being you, Adam.
Exactly. I've seen literally this behavior in old people in real life. "I'm a senior, I lived a long and eventful life, I don't have to take any crap from anyone. Screw you, I'm out of here. Meh, walk away." Absolutely believable.
It’s a cover of a billie eilish song. 🙌🏽
@@akaLids77 High Drama is an album of covers. We know
Wonderful video 🥰. Adam, your eyes are just so expressive. Beautiful man with an amazingly brilliant voice. 🤗❤️
The sassy older Adam had me laughing and tearing up. We are all getting older but I'm glad I got to see Adam at his beginning. Cheers to more years that will come!!
We all get old. When i think 15years Back and future. I stop thinking🤓
Wonderful! I’ve got 30 years on Adam & he’s the best vocalist & performer I’ve ever seen, and that’s been a lot over the years.
I have 39.👩🦳
@@doloresweatherspoon2727 I have only 10. I bow to you both.
I would just like to thank Adam Lambert for making my childhood so thrilling with his amazing songs, lyrics & style. They were & still are a true inspiration to me, & i still listen to his songs daily❤🔥
I’ll turn 70 next month. Yikes I can’t believe it. That thing about the older you get the faster time goes by really is true.Can’t figure out where the past 20 years went. It’s good yours will be documented. I mean I know what I did the past 20yrs and it was very worthwhile but 😮 just went so quickly. Love 💕 ❤ you Adam. Your music, your interviews & your comic relief has gotten me back into listening to music again. You see, my husband passed suddenly and very unexpectedly nearly 6 years ago. It had been very difficult to listen to almost anything. We were together almost 40yrs,so many memories.We actually still liked and loved each other. Anyway,Thank You so Very Much for drawing me into your music.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Getting older and even more fabulous!! You are amazing Adam and I love this song!
I appreciate him covering this Billie Eilish song. I just wish he would have acknowledged that it’s not his original song. That It’s a cover.
Love this… and you! Adam, you are such a special person. Your talent is indisputable.. but your personality, thoughtfulness, and kindness is what makes you the amazing person you are. Thank you for not losing ‘that’ - which most of us saw in you during your Idol days, and have followed since! You are adored!
Omg i love you Adam
Would love to meet him in person and here him sing🥰 gives me chills and tears of happiness
This was a beautiful cover sung by one of the most beautiful men to have ever walked on this earth. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
honestly, adam lambert ages like a fine wine
Exactly 💯
Ditto and ditto and ditto ❤😊
He is just amazing and appreciated so much 💖 💗
I totally agree the older he gets the more sexier he becomes 😉❤️❤️❤️
Also he’s not afraid of pushing the envelope
I love him
Seeing my childhood favorite singer "getting old" makes my heart sink ❤
This was wonderful! Thank you Adam for the smiles. Loved the pulse check on “Grandpa Adam”.
Gorgeous Adam.
Love, Love live this!
Thank you Adam Lambert love your singing and songs have wonderful holidays.
The song just ended and I'm sitting here in silence a minute later, still waiting for the goosebumps to subside.
Me too.
I absolutely love this! Being 73, I can so relate. HIs humor is spot on! Can't wait for my CD to get here. Love you Adam!
This guy must be the most talented man on the planet. Really handsome as well. Love his singing.
Why it makes me sad , it makes me cry 😢😢😢😭 i love you so much adam lambert since 2009-2023 here coming from philippines 😭😭😭 takecare always by yourself and always becareful 😢😢
ABSOLUTELY BRILLILANT!!! Seeing your emotions throughout the song made the lyrics even stronger for me. (Haha - When I first saw the video snippet for this song, I guessed the older guy was your dad with further aging makeup. Wow, I am amazed that it is really you! Great work!)
I appreciate him covering this Billie Eilish song. I just wish he would have acknowledged that it’s not his original song. That It’s a cover.
I cant think of one song that has a bad mv. They all have amazing messages and of course great vocals to go along with it. No matter your age Adam we will still be here to celebrate all of your accomplishments and songs. We love you!
I appreciate him covering this Billie Eilish song. I just wish he would have acknowledged that it’s not his original song. That It’s a cover.
Absolutely love ❤️ love this video. Adams voice is so incredible. He literally can sing the dictionary and make it sound awesome. Best male vocalist out there. But also a very compassionate man. Love all his videos.
The way you've developed your voice over the years is a tremendous gift to all of us. Thank you!
I just watched getting older what can you say it is truly beautiful this man is a beautiful genius no one can ever match him in my eyes perfection ❤❤❤❤❤❤xxxxxx
Awe Feb. 23 is my 66 birthday. I love adam Lambert and had the privilege to see Adam And Queen come to BC Canada 2015. When they came back to Canada a few years later, the floor tickets were selling at $500.--- Way too much for my budget. I get my pension now so I hope they come back to the West Coast of BC, Ca
Such a beautiful song! We love Adam Lambert and all his songs and videos!!! He is absolutly AMAZING!
This is a cover of a billie eilish song 😁
Amazing!!! Song choice? Voice? Makeup? Yes! All of it!!
Honestly, this man makes me so happy and his music makes my day EVERYDAY!!!
The painful honesty through laugh this is so Adam's. Such personal. ❤️
I love this guy.. he is a hard worker.. his voice is like a machine. I appreciate his talent. ❣️
Such a Queen-like opening! Love it!
@adamlamber this song is giving emotional and that’s so special for me ❤️❤️❤️🥹🥹🥹
Lovely version of Getting Older 🥰Adam🥰 my heart is smiling and dancing while getting older🥰
I never knew this song before. After learning this is Billie's song, I listened to her version and although each version has its own flair, Adam's version is for me. He is a true artist!
Adam always makes others song is his song in another level
Truly a talent of the century. He is such an amazing vocalist and can manipulate his voice to ranges others only dream of!
OMG! I'm going on Amazon right now to order this CD. So good. The songs, the INCREDIBLE voice. Just so good.
I don't even know where to begin with the compliments. IDK he's a genius, his talent is above and beyond and of course an absolutely beautiful star 🌟
Adam is a beautiful person and a beautiful heart❤❤❤l
He makes me feel it's ok to be me. 65 years old and he taught me.
Adam. I loved this video. It's really ingenious. Whoever did your make up for when you're older (pardon the pun) is amazing. I loved seeing your home videos from when you were a small boy. Yet another slam dunk for me. You are a beautiful and insanely talented man. I count myself lucky to be one of your devoted Glambert's 😄
Finally the wait is over…I’ve always loved his style, music and literally everything about him…One of the American Idols to have made it so big and famous in his career 😍😍😍
Oh my god....that voice!!
Ty for filling my ❤️ heart
Good love!!!!!!!!! 🌹 💕 🌹 💕 🌹 💕 🌹
The negative comments comes from people who are jealous of your talents and your beautiful personality and that you're able to be yourself and say to hell with it all I will AlWAYS be a fan of yours
You have a long way to go. Don’t rush it. Time goes by fast enough. I opened my eyes today after I slept and realized I’m 56 and i felt like it was only yesterday i was 21.
One of favorite songs of Adam's of all time. Grew up watching A.I. & loved Adam from the beginning.
I appreciate him covering this Billie Eilish song. I just wish he would have acknowledged that it’s not his original song. That It’s a cover.
