On the weekend I picked up my pre-ordered vinyl copy of Bohemian Rasphody at Target...love it ! Now I can frame it and hang it up on my vinyl LP wall!! It wasn't cheap but worth it.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised because the source is Wikipedia, but I still am. I was reading a bit of the history of The Show Must Go On”, and there is one mention of Adam performing it with Queen in 2011, making it sound like a one-off. Yet there are a couple of paragraphs with their own sub-headings about “Celine Dion’s Version”. Will Adam receive the same for “his” version of “Believe.” Just saying.... But back to this info for TSMGO: it is one of Adam’s best loved and most vocally praised songs, and he gets a sentence? I think even Paul Rogers might have gotten two. And perhaps there might be a mention that Adam has been their frontman since 2012, or 2011, I have read it written both ways...a long time. I don’t know who updates Wikipedia, but sheesh... Like it or not, that is the source that many people make their first and only stop. Sorry to sound so irritated, but i haven’t had a wink of sleep for 22 hours (my sleep is worse than Adam’s), and that combined with this scant mention just got on my last nerve! I do hope everyone has a nice day. Celine Dion released a single of TSMGO with Lindsay Sterling on electric violin. That is why it gets its own section with several paragraphs. And it is significantly different from the usual Queen and QAL versions. Adam's 2011 performance is under the heading "Live Recordings" as the MTV EMA show was live recorded and broadcast on TV. The Rock Big Ben Live performance of TSMGO should, and could, be added to this list!!! I can't think of any other time Adam performed this song on a live TV broadcast. To include other Adam performances, there would need to be a heading called "Live Performances", or wait for another televised performance of the song or for a DVD that includes the song. In general, unless the wiki page has limited edit access, anyone can edit a Wiki page. I suspect Adam's page is limited to Sosh, but I suspect that the TSMGO page can be edited by anyone. But if you do edit the TSMGO Wikipedia page, you MUST reference reliable sources!!! Which should be easy since the Rock Big Ben Live show has its own Wikipedia page and the set list is included. Since the 2014-2015 tour also has its own Wikipedia page with set listings for each leg of the tour, one could also mention that the Rock Big Ben show was a prelude to the UK/EU tour leg, and while TSMGO was not performed during the UK/EU tour leg, it was performed during the NA tour leg. So, would anyone like to volunteer for editing Wikipedia pages? You could run the edits by the group here for comments and suggestions. See Wikipedia editing details at: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:AboutAnyone can edit Adam's page. So go ahead and edit if you don't like it. But as Dancy already mentions you have to have a source for what you put in. Especially in the English version. Also sourcing within wiki is not allowed. So saying it's on the Rock Big Ben show page is not enough. You need an original source. I have edited some pages and I follow quite a lot to see what get's changed. Sometimes I correct or even undo an edit. It's not rocket science, but what I do know is that Adam's page is not monitored by his team. The Dutch page is very outdated, but I just didn't have the time to update it.

I'm Glad Adam is sending support to Sam. He supports and praises many things that his friends or other artists may do. But I for one am glad that Adam does not feel the need to show his body for validation and acceptance. I love to see his pretty and sexy pictures with his clothes on. I'll be glad when we get another nice photo shoot from him. There are not many artists out there who are as gorgeous. Don't need or want another Adam Levine, lol.

Good for Sam! We've all seen celebrities you struggle with weight, and some of them virtually starve themselves into very unattractive bodies. Neither Sam or Adam are naturally thin. They both seem to work hard at keeping a sensible weight. I love Adam in all styles of clothing. He wears clothes really well. No need to show a lot of skin. Same with Sam. I've always believed that the vast majority of people look better with clothes on.

Before my first surgery i didn't like my musclar legs, now i wish i still had them lol...wished they were and some other stuff...i wouldn't say it was really body issues, it wasn't like that, no insecurities...but just some things you wished were different...then during my first semester something clicked and i was like "you know what? I'm gonna rock this shit!"...through my surgerys I've learned to love my body for what it is and what wonderful things it does for me and let's me do everyday...
Sometimes showing skill can contribute to a song, if the song channels a sexy side, it just irritates me when some acts seemingly never never find a proper full outfit...it gets kind of inflationary.

I've always believed that the vast majority of people look better with clothes on. Exactly! And it is cool if it is for a photo shoot or you are on the beach or whatever. But with the selfies way too many are now just posting random shirtless pictures of themselves or in their underwear from someone else's expensive home. Geez, Bieber who was a star, and had a reason to think his fans would be interested, used to do it all the time when he was 19 or 20 but even he seems to have grown out of that. I remember when our Adam beat out Levine in some contest about sexiest man in music or something and some of the reviewers had a grand time pointing out that Levine, with no shirt on, still came up short behind Lambert, lol. It was just a fun contest but it was still pretty funny.
