I finally got to hear Harry Styles' single on the way home from work. I wasn't impressed, sort of wished it would get to some sort of aural point. My nieces who love 1 Direction will love it. I was bored.

I'm with you girldrummer. I so want Adam to get great radio play. If he does I believe the award show performances will follow. I think the label has to pull out the big guns to get him massive play. I'm so tired of hearing excuses that he just has to have that perfect song. Meanwhile, others get massive play without some perfect song and using the same writers he has used. A4 is my hope. And as you said "it would be long overdue." Well to be fair Adam is a different kettle of fish to typical pop artists. He is pretty alternative. So when ppl say he needs the perfect song. Not neccessarily about other artists song. But Adams own songs. I mean In FYE era Sleepwalker should of been a single. TP Era Runnin should of been a single, Cuckoo, Shady e.t.c. TOH ERA After GT TOH should of been a single definately. So I don't think it is about other artists and their blueprint. IT is about Adam not having one, and being a genre all of his own. I just think Adam and his team need to pick the right single, they got it right with GT. So have confidence, they well get it right again. And Adam just needs a mass audience, that is all. His music is as good as anyone in music right now. And have a feeling A4 well be a departure from his last work. I am liking the idea of Bluesey, Earthy e.t.c. I would be surprised if their is any EDM in A4. I love your comment, "Adam being a genre all his own." I remember one time he was on Ellen and she said to him, "No one is doing what you're doing." He doesn't fit into a genre. And his persona still doesn't fit into a stereotypical "pop" slot. Lots of people think he has a great voice, but they somehow just don't feel like they fit in his niche (like we do.) His music is great. Better than a lot of top hit music. That's not the issue. It could be a simple " I think he's cool enough to like, so I'll like his music." There is still an unexplained barrier there. Hope A4 breaks it down.

Yes, it's doubtful........but Adam pimps his friends...like Sarah and Ferras ......that's what he does. I imagine they appreciate it. I actually listened to almost all of Ferras' album and really liked it. Adam has such talented friends!
