Adam did say in his last twitter party that he had picked his first single. I have to believe that Adam feels he has a better song to release as the "official" single. Better is of course subjective, but Adam also made it sound like he gets to choose (or at least gets more input than previously). He will choose how and when he wants to present his music, and as fans we get to enjoy the ride!
Like everyone here, I would love nothing more than for Feel Something to catch on, and go viral on youtube, spotify and eventually hit radio and blow up. But radio has always been an uphill road with Adam sadly. Without the big label push a ballad like Stay With Me or Bruno's Just the Way You Are had, not sure how possible this is for a ballad. Both of those songs were pushed big and were introducing newer artists (I think they were both pretty catchy and both had grammy noms).
Adam has such a versatile and dependable voice, he can sing almost any genre, which is great for us fans, but maybe hard to market his music as he doesn't fit in one of the "boxes" - I think many articles have alluded to this issue in one way or another. There is no "formula" for Adam, he needs to be himself.

He has always been diverse with his music and art and had more to offer. Pop/pop-rock/rock/soulful/ballads. So if it is Queen exposure, or his other high profile gigs, or songs like "Feel Something" it is wonderful to see people seeing all/more of what he has to offer. Can only mean more fans in the long run. I really like all the exposure his team is getting for him and of course Queen too.

That’s awesome! I have a friend coming over later today, and I’m excited to play it for her, too. She bought some QAL tickets off of me a few years ago just for the fun of taking her hubby to Detroit for an adventure and wound up loving it and Adam’s voice. For some reason, though, she’s never connected to his individual work. Knowing her tastes, I think she’s going to love this one. Plus, she’s a counselor, so I think she will appreciate the heartfelt expression. Thanks for sharing! It’s always fun to hear when people are won over!! No matter what the taste in music, it’s difficult to deny his unique vocal talent. This song, more than most of his, I feel, showcases the beauty and subtle nuances of his gorgeous voice!! Yes, for sure it showcases the beauty and subtle nuances of his unique voice as you so eloquently put it . How wonderful and brave of him to bypass the demands of the music industry that thinks of profits and not artistry, and this first song from the new album shows the power of following one’s inner truth. How wonderful it is that his partnership with Queen gives him the financial freedom to do this All us fans are in for a real treat as the rest of the world discovers this treasure hidden in plain sight

I was just thinking that Adam could be part of the 2020 Oscars IF these projects get nominations: TSMGO for Best Documentary Feature Playmobil the movie for Best Animated Feature Film Best Original Music Score (Playmobil emperor Maximus song if it excists) not to jinx anything... TSMGO Documentary is airing on television, so it would be eligible for an Emmy, not an Oscar. Even better though - he can appear on both the Emmy’s AND the Oscars!

Right on! I 100% agree with you! It’s why we were smitten from the beginning: he has always dared to be true to himself!
