I'll wait for a good video. We often hear how bad something is only to find out that the people there loved the performance. And often the video is much better that what we were first told. I think it was the space. The instruments were loud but the vocal mic didn't sound like it was hooked to a speaker. Seemed that way in the rehearsal vid too. However I think in the control room vid sound seemed normal. And since it was being recorded for youtube release then the sound going into the recording booth is the most important.

Just to say....I have seen Adam record a couple of tv things and his voice seems, at the time, to be ‘lost’ in the mix....but when the performance is aired, the balance is there. Not sure how it works but there is something different about the way a for television (or for YouTube?) performance is produced...not the same sound for the live audience as if intended for the live audience. Even his performance at the last GMA - from the audience his voice seemed a little thin and quiet - but watching the TV performance back, it was neither. Edit: and as per Jablea above...

Someone asked about backing tracks. Yes, he is using them on NE. His falsetto has always been weak, and he backs it up with additional voice tracks to make it sound fuller. Cassie is not happy. Nervous about GMA tomorrow after hearing or not hearing the performance today. But after listening to the backstage professional mix, his voice came in loud and clear. Fingers crossed for an astounding youtube recording.

I'm betting they only feed his ear monitors with the TV stream sound and since it's not his setup he goes by what they give him versus having someone out in the room. I remember he had to work with Idol when he was one to give more full bodied sound to the tv stream. He built clout with them to let the group performances be live etc and the tv sound mix was never better for actually hearing the singers before and since his year.

Not really sure why these Ken Templin reviews (in this case of Mad World from week 8 of AI 2009) are finding so much support. Ken Templin is a huge MM fan, has stated on multiple videos that MM should be singing with Queen and not Adam, and he goes on and on about how pitchy Adam is, and how brilliantly pure MM is in those review vids. Once he started about 'pitchy' here again, when all Adam does is sing in an angsty, vibrating tone, I had to turn this off, cannot watch this guy, he has an agenda, and along the way, he is collecting hits on the back of our fan community. He just says enough good stuff to get the Glambert hits, but otherwise, in other videos, he totally disses Adam. Sorry, but I feel this guy should be ignored. I know he has an illustrious music career of his own, but his agenda is too one-sided and obvious for me. Sorry. Not a fan. I haven't seen any other of this guy's videos and don't know anything about him. He is absolutely correct about the "pitchy" comments in "Mad World."

I remember from previous Atop posts, a long time ago, that Adam hit the big held note a little flat but quickly corrected it. Are there other notes in the performance that were off pitch? Was it badly off pitch or just a very little?
