TOH is my #1 pick for an Adam should-have-been-a-hit single that was never released. So I will also never forgive OZ radio for that one. Regarding the music video -- it always seemed likely it was TOH but the hashtag could have been for the album. In any case, I want to see the video footage. I am sure that if they put all the footage online, fans would be willing to do some very creative, professional edits. Guessing I am the odd man out here but I never thought and still don't think that the song TOH would have gone anywhere on US radio. Maybe they would have taken a chance with it or at least pushed something else to follow ALN if the DL summer tour had worked out, once that was off the table everything changed as far as logistics and longitity of supporting the album. That being said, I would like to see the video though just because he looks so stinkin' cute in these photos. Wait -- are you both saying that TOH did poorly? what i really want to know is this: is the record company going to drop him? i thought TOH had been doing better than you both seem to indicate, so now i'm worried.

No BB, we are talking about the song not the album, discussing what we thought about its viability as a single would have been. Who knows what label may or may not do, that IMO, is not even worth worrying about.

THat shirt is sheer....nice....I can see some nipples! :D He looks fabulous and it never occurred to me we'd get bare chest so not disappointed. These Italian guys seem nice and fun, glad he's expanding his circle of friends. They get to travel all the time, Adam is so busy that he doesn't have that luxury. Have to admit I often wonder what a lot of these guys do to actually make a living and pay the rent. Wonder that about "he who shall not be named *TJ" too. Just curious. I asked awhile ago for a pm re TJ...no response ...so maybe most do not know. But...if ...a pm would be appreciated. Hard to know what all these fellas do ..a few we found out about by checking Instagrams... bamafan and a few other Atoppers ( cough cough ) seemed to get a handle on a few of the Italian fellas, Suffice to say...not what you might expect from one or two, but then I have also never been a fan of MM who introduced Adam to an Italian contact Will Pm you

IMO, they don't need to chase the WWFM success anymore. Now they would want the success of GT. I think GT is a bigger success than WWFM. Maybe not in the physical sales, but it's replaced by online streaming and look at how huge GT is.

I bet he was more disappointed than anybody about the lack of interest for TOH, his hopes were so high that he even got it tattooed on his chest. He had the album name tattooed on his chest. I think his excitement for the album and songs prevailed no matter what the singles were. GT did its job and Warner has learned a lot about marketing Adam, I am sure!

I think Warner is thrilled to have Adam. He's a worldwide superstar who is rapidly gaining fans all over the world without Warner having to spend a dime. Every time he performs with Queen, he has an audience he never would have had and new fans are born. A lot of Queenies went to the TOH Europe shows. When he dazzles the crowd on XFactor with his charm and wit, he gains new fans who will want to go to his solo concerts and will support his next album. He's getting all kinds of great publicity from RHPS. Warner just sits back and smiles at all the great exposure he's getting from all these other ventures knowing that when it's time for him to do an album, he belongs to them. WIN/WIN

Not just the album name, but a lyric line....... 'chasing the original high'. Also I think the idea at the centre of the song was partially responsible for the tattoo as much as the song title or album name. Plus it got Max and Shellback committed to working with him.

That lyric is personal and meaningful to him. He might have had that tattooed even w/o the song or the album title!
