Wow -- Adam KILLED it on Jimmy Kimmel last night! He looked amazing on my big screen TV, and all the other songs were amazing. Broken English--who knew, indeed? It was sexy, hot, compelling, beautiful, haunting, etc.... What an amazing start to this era. I think that this next tour is truly going to be epic! And of course he looked so happy--it must be so empowering to finally be doing so much music you wrote, you shaped and you truly love (and of course being happy doesn't hurt).
BTW, I didn't hear any backing tracks either, and I think that having the divas and Brian as back up are a fabulous addition. As a singer, it is really freeing to have live back-up because it lets you go places you can't go with tracks--and we know how Adam likes to "take it to church"! AMEN!!!

I haven't read all of the threads, but is that really the bridge of Naked Love? Love it, but it is definitely from Crystal Water's 100% Pure Love. Definitely a 90's sounding song.

AMEN SISTA!!!
I love the divas and Brian as backup. They were needed. 8-)
Well, Kimmel was amazing and a nice start. And this is the first time I have really loved Naked Love. It could be a single; I hope that's the recorded bridge.
When do you think we will start hearing about what's planned for Adam's drop week promo? Carrie's schedule is out, and it looks massive (of course, it is Carrie Underwood. I'm not expecting anythingquite like that, I would be happy with about half her stuff). Maybe late next week?

Yeah, I think it's more of a silly reference than a rip-off though

It's a straight quote, Adam mixing fun with clever ... oh my, having so many thoughts about how clever he is, when I basically just had my mind deep down in the gutter.
I love how he mixes all those different levels of smart, beautiful, sexy, horny, over the top-innocent, great vocals, music business savvy, fun, love, professional show, "don't think what you see is all you get" ... etc. pp. and much more ...
ETA: Take listen, its worth it!
ETA2: ok. reading comments below I feel I need to express myself better: I think he quoted for the fun of the occasion, not that it will be on the record. Just Adam improvising on a song that is not even out there yet ... that doesn't stop him though ;D

It's definitely a sample, just wondering if it's really in the recorded version or just having fun on stage. I just think its a great use of sampling. Adam is always doing these thingses.

I hope it's really in the recorded version, I loved it.
Guys, I'm so sorry to do this, but I had the craziest day yesterday and this morning (buying a used car after my own died in the fast lane on I95!--so frickin stressful) and while I was able to catch NCOE on Kimmel last night (KICKED ASS), I haven't seen anything else yet. Is there somewhere I can easily go to find the best versions of the vids? Thank you sooo much in advance!!!
You do not have to shout but if you want to chat....
maitospf: crazyladym...happening to me too!

ayleim: Just checking - so there were NO Adam-sightings in the performance show right? Then I don't have to worry about being near the TV later tonight, I can just listen from the kitchen. :D

blueberry: A tech question. When I post, I'm stuck in BB Code, can't get back to Preview. Any ideas? I have Preview as default in my profile, but that doesn't help.

Q3: blueberry. there should be a two labels on tabs at the bottom of the REPLY box -- one labeled Preview and one labeled BBCode. Can you see these or are they gone?
May 19, 2013 2:08:40 GMT -5
blueberry: Q3, I can still see the labels, but when I click on the Preview label, nothing happens. And every time I start a new post, it automatically takes me to BB Code. Otherwise it doesn't matter, but posting pictures would be easier in Preview (copy+paste).
