Adam Lambert revealed that he was collaborating with legendary guitarist Nile Rodgers on “Roses” back in January.
The ’70s rock-inspired number finds Lambert asking for his lover’s attention, crooning “You left your hat on the window sill/ You’re coming back, yeah you always will” over Rodgers’ signature guitar licks.
This is not the first time that the Queen frontman teams up with Rodgers, as the pair previously collaborated for “Shady” off the deluxe edition of Lambert’s 2012 sophomore album, “Trespassing.”
“Roses” is one of the 13 “slinky numbers to catch a vibe to” that will appear on Lambert’s forthcoming fourth studio album, “Velvet.”
The follow-up to 2015’s “The Original High” will also feature the previously shared singles “Superpower,” “Comin’ in Hot” and “Feel Something”.
