Morning musings I have been a fan of Adam and his music for almost ten years. In this span of that time.. I have heard,read,etc..some fans wringing their hands over Adam's lack of A status on POP charts ,on radio,etc. Much moaning and quite honestly to me, unnecessary worry about Adam's ,in my estimation, incredible career. The music business sucks ,I think we all know this to be true.. YET Adam is a very respected and loved singer in this business. Longevity was his goal and look at him.. after ten years he is mighty Ok.. a Multimillionaire,with two careers , many solo performances all over the world.. (like Cher,Elvis,) a boyfriend,etc. He is thriving without radio play,without a number one pop hit.. It would be so wholesome if some folks could see all the positives ,rather than focusing on some negatives.. It's a bit tiresome,leading some fans to march over to other sites.. Just saying. Adam is not a victim. we should all be so successful.If Adam was totally worried about being a hit ,he wouldn't have gone independent..Neverthless fans can do their part by streaming his music,playing it on Youtube ,etc.. I mean if you are really worried you can actually do something to make yourself feel better.. support your favorite singer.. Wringing your hands will do nothing but get you chapped hands,I think. I love Apple and have been streaming there....Three months free.. doesn't hurt a bit.Let's get" Coming in Hot to Two Million".. That's productive,don't you think?BTW Adam helped open the flood gates for other gay singers.. He is not only a singer but a mover and shaker..I'm just soooo proud of being a fan of this man. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9h-vd8QiLLwI am not disagreeing with you, however it may help to remember how the discussion yesterday and the day before started. It is the low streaming numbers and the lack of enthusiasm from within his fandom. Adam clearly would like more support and the question was why he isn't getting it. Some fans rightfully mentioned that they aren't feeling the new sound. Most fans here are still very supportive, each in their own way. I am not criticizing you, but thought to make a point that sometimes discussions are needed to understand. Yep, the discussion started, not as a complaint of Adam's career, but as an encouragement to fans. I thought it was an interesting discussion and, IMO, it is ok to state that we're not crazy OTT in love with every single song by Adam. Thanks for the reminder, Sizzling.

It's a good interview (from London early in June's PR stint) and an interesting way to devise questions. Adam was talkative, including some paranormal experiences in with his why I did the music this way this time discussions. He said NE was really easy to perform, didn't have to plan his actions step by step as in some cases. Of course imo that could be why the Ellen performance was nice and easy as the first actual performance and maybe he figured it was so easy that he did that more contrived Idol performance. (can you tell which one I prefered? lol)

RE the latest discussion about Adam and his level of success. It looks like the bottom line is that we just stream and view and stream and view and on and on. He cannot do this by himself. The way it's all set up now is that fans have to do this for their artists. We may not like it. It may seem manipulative and unfair and sometimes burdensome. And it is. But it's currently the strongest mode of support.
He puts out the music and performs it. Apparently the world at large will not hear it unless we stream it. And view it. But streaming is the thing. The onus is on the fans. So stream.
