Late last night, Cassie made a great post and Glampoon made a little Glampoon-snark post :D. I then got carried away on a dead thread with a response about what draws me to different songs. In case you are interested or bored: adamtopia.com/post/616392Just read it, and it is wonderful. I am bringing over the TedTalk video about how musicians' brains work, as I found it fascinating. It reinforced much of what I have thought about learning to play an instrument. Adam does not play an instrument, but....actually, he does. He is not like the average singer who just opens up their mouth and sings, like they open up their mouth and talk. His voice is an instrument he has studied, practiced, developed techniques for, and which involves all areas of the brain that they talk about with instrumentalists. I am sure if the scientists extended their study of musicians' brains to include highly trained, formally trained singers, they would obtain similar results. Check out this video. At less than 5 minutes in length, it presents a powerful argument for providing music education to children. www.youtube.com/watch?t=23&v=R0JKCYZ8hng

Yes I think so too. It was changed on the 5th of May (right after it got mentioned here I gues?) with a reference made to the 2nd link you give here. I didn't get changed in the text yet though.

What about "I Don't Need A Map" and "Take Back". Along with "Runnin" these are my favorite songs that I can't live without. I would love to hear him sing all of them live.

That could well be it, it needs to be corrected I guess, do we have anyone on board in a position to do that? How do these things work?

Add me to the "Runnin'" on repeat crowd. There is a reason why it is one of the top tracks from Trespassing in sales and streams. ... and me to the "Runnin" crowd. On my Spotify list as well. I still don't understand why he didn't perform live when he performed other bonus songs on tour. Yes I put "Runnin'" on my Spotify play list as well today. Ghost Town will soon have more views on Spotify than Runnin' though. I guess it will take about two more days for it to pass. Great version of Runnin' that got posted here before is: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WggwD655iFEIt keeps getting stuck in my head when I listen to it.

Yes, I think he may well have limited his listening to the singles. Re WWFM, I thought it reached #10 too but the the Wiki for Adam's discography states #24 so I'm not sure now - perhaps someone else will confirm one way or the other Adam's Wiki Discography says WWFM was #10 Billboard. Maybe someone just corrected it. Q3 brought this up a couple days ago. There was a Billboard list that said it was #24, but the original charts back in the day said #10, so 24 seemed like an error that crept in. Someone who doesn't numbers can remember this story better. Not just the Wiki but on Billboard.com it now says #24. I do not understand this at all. I have not had time to research it. I know that WWFM was #10 on the BBHot 100 after the Idol performance. It had a huge sales spike that coincided with his radio peak at #13 on the Pop chart. *** ETA -- I found it: Apr 21, 2010 at 6:03pm Quote Post Options Post by krisella on Apr 21, 2010 at 6:03pm BREAKING NEWS: ADAM LAMBERT's "Whataya Want From Me" breaks into top 10 on Hot 100, rocketing 23-10 for new peak position. 5 minutes ago via web BREAKING NEWS: ADAM LAMBERT is also #1 on Billboard's Hot Singles Sales chart, where "Whataya Want From Me" enters at the top. 14 minutes ago via web BREAKING NEWS: ADAM LAMBERT scores his first Billboard #1, as "Whataya Want From Me" enters Hot Dance Singles Sales in pole position. 18 minutes ago via web Link: pulsemusic.proboards.com/thread/93953/adam-lambert-whataya-me-hot100?page=79I sent a note to Billboard's Chart Director.
