Adam Lambert’s performance with Queen at Sunday night's Oscar ceremony isn’t the only thing we have to look forward to from the singer.
The "American Idol" runner-up dropped a new song, “Feel Something,” on Thursday night. It’s his first new track since last summer’s “Two Fux.”
Lambert’s been hard at work on a new album, a follow-up to 2015’s "The Original High." He previously revealed on Twitter that he has written “35-ish songs” so far.
“I have been working really hard on it!” he wrote. “The album is gonna be yummy! It’s basically all of my influences rolled into my own special blend.”
In addition to the new song, Lambert opened up Thursday night in a very real, raw way about his mental health, including a recent "dark period."
"I'm coming out of a dark period of second guessing my own artistry and having my mental health suffer because of it," he admitted in a lengthy note to fans. "I put all my focus on my work and started to feel detached in my personal life. My self-worth was suffering. I was lonely and becoming depressed."
The Queen singer said that with "professional help" and the support of family and friends, he pulled himself out of that dark place.
"Feel Something," he said, is "about me climbing out of the low period, defying my disillusionment, owning my needs, and opening my heart."
"Between frustrations with my career and many lost connections, I felt numb - and though I wanted to fall in love, I knew I wasn't ready. That's what inspired me to cry out, 'I don't need to feel love, I just wanted to feel something!' It was in this realization that I took my first step toward self-care and nursing my spirit back to health," he added.
