Taking a moment to appreciate that Adam has the good sense not to bemoan his success... (and go Frank). A very thought provoking letter. On one hand you wonder how anybody could complain to finally have achieved what has been wished for but on the other hand not everybody is in a perfect position to navigate fame. Personality matters too. I think Adam has it, plus he reached his level of stardom when he was mature enough to handle and appreciate it.

Also on his FB: He looks like a mixture between a cockatoo and a unicorn. Gorgeous.

I think Adams peak success in terms of I guess you could say Hysteria. Was 2010. I Think since then Adam has found steady success. Prob the best kinda success. OF course Queen has given Adam an all new platform. PPL talk about his solo career. But without Queen, their is no solo career post Trespassing.

I think you are selling Adam's fans awfully short. Sure, Queen has boosted Adam's career in countless ways. It's a Godsend for him. But Adam's fans are loyal. And he has fans all over the world. He has never been an arena filler with his solo tours. But I would guess that he would have been selling his music and touring after Trespassing without Queen in his pocket. He would still have a solo career.

WBR signed Adam in 2013! They hadn't even done the 2014 QAL tour yet! I guess TOH, Gold and Platinum GT and a worldwide sold out TOH Tour didn’t happen?! Several soundtrack songs and TV shows and a movie?!! << All had nothing to do with QAL. If anything, there is a contingent of solo Adam fans that have had it with QAL. They are hanging on by a thread!

I guess TOH, Gold and Platinum GT and a worldwide sold out TOH Tour didn’t happen?! Several soundtrack songs and TV shows and a movie?!! Yep. Warner Bro records did not sign Adam to their label because of Queen. They signed him as a solo artist for the purpose of making albums and singles. He had a good lucrative worldwide touring record before Queen and during Queen. Thankfully, Queen has given him a lot more but my guess is his solo touring would have been a little more frequent without Queen. I have heard some non-fans make the claim that without Queen he would have no career. But they have been discounting his success, for one reason or another, from day 1 so nothing new for them. But if they were to look at his solo worldwide achievements they would see they are wrong. He has 27 top 10 albums in US/and various countries and 20 gold/platinum/2-3X platinum singles in the US and other countries. Have some done a lot better? Of course they have. He was on the list of highest earning Idols for every year except his first one out of Idol. He and Daughtry tied for the number 2 spot in 2010 and he was number 1 in 2015. His achievements are solid.
