After announcing the official release date for his highly anticipated sophomore album 'Trespassing' yesterday (Dec. 15), Adam Lambert's lead single 'Better Than I Know Myself' has hit the web.

The 'American Idol' star's new mid-tempo track is a Dr. Luke and Claude Kelly production about a lover who knows you inside and out. "Cause if I wanted to go I would have gone by now/ But I really need you near me to/ Keep my mind off the edge/ If I wanted to leave I would have left by now/ But you're the only one that knows me/ Better than I know myself," Lambert belts out on the epic piano ballad.

Glambert's gifted vocals soar on the new song. It's no wonder legendary rock band Queen is making moves to make him their new lead singer!

Way too mello!!! What happened to the Adam that "Rocked it out" on Idol??? I want more screming and head banging like you did on the show. Then come and tour the U.S. so I can buy tickets to see the Adam I loved and voted for every week a million times!!
