Hello I'm thinking of going to GMA last minute did we ever get confirmation of how many songs he sings, I think only one is aired, but will he sing more during the commercial break or after the segment is over. Also does anyone recommend a hotel that is near the entrance area where we have to line up by that part of central park? Don't want to be too far away since it sounds like we will have to be there kind of early in the am waiting.
Originally was going to go up Wed.-Fri. night to do B&N & GMA, but personal issues have come up now best might be to see GMA concert.
I appreciate any help with this, not that familiar w/ NY City. I know Central Park is pretty big so don't want to have to hike miles & miles to get there.

www.apple.com/itunes/charts/albums/. Here's the link showing top albums-I'm in U.S. WHY no sign of him maybe the pre-sale hurt him too much. Very sad by this. Trespassing was on this chart when it came out.

I hope I'm posting correctly and that it's ok to post here. I love LOVE this album-so many songs I truly love!!!! The Original High & The Light, ALN, & There I said It are my favorites. Then I also love Evil in the Night, Lucy, & Rumors, but do wish Adam's voice was more prominent then Tove Lo's. I hope The Original High is next & released soon as a single because it makes so many summer references that it could do awesome this summer. Pissed about how the album is charting on ITunes US POp albums however. As of 2:20am Eastern time zone on Wed. Am, it's not even listed in the top 100 at all-how is that possible?James Taylor, Nate, Hilary are all listed in the top 15, Adam is nowhere on that list-How in the Hell is that possible. What makes no sense is Adam & Hilary each have around 960-970 reviews on ITunes for their albums almost the same & all 5 stars. James Taylor has 130 reviews & Nate has 200 so how are they outselling Adam when clearly more people have bought his on ITunes. Also Adam is getting way better reviews in the media than Nate. Can anyone explain any of this? I don't understand- someone said it was listed as the top 5th album on some chart but I went on ITunes directly & the others albums are there his not even listed in 100. Even if he's 5th I still don't understand how all these people could be selling so much more when they have old have 100 or 200 reviews, that's a huge # less then Adam who's almost at 1,000, seems only Hillary Duff could maybe be higher she has maybe 10 more reviews. The album is awesome but I want Adam to get the respect he deserves for this amazing album. Everyone agrees he's an amazing vocalist so why isn't he # 2 at least!!! Last time it charted well at least was #1 on billboard even though radio didn't play it. This time U.S. Radio is playing it a bit, so why aren't sales way higher. People need to re-discover his music I think, a lot of people, will love it but they have to hear it. Just very frustrated. Somany other countries LOVE & respect him & it's charting well but his own country shits all over him for no reason. It's embarrassing how his own country doesn't back him. Only other theory is someone who updates the iTunes charts hates Adam so they take him out or skew his sales numbers somehow. I don't know where you were looking, but I just checked iTunes, and TOH is #5 on the overall U.S. chart, and #3 on the U.S. Pop chart. Why is Adam not at #1? Adam had a large pre-sale on iTunes; the pre-sale is not reflected in his ranking (however, the pre-sale will be included in his 1st week sales total for Billboard ranking). Hilary Duff had no pre-sale, so her iTunes ranking is based on sales starting yesterday. Nate Reuss had a limited pre-sale. Q3 explained this in more detail in yesterday's thread, so you might want to take a look. No one is cheating Adam. If anything, blame the odd way that iTunes treats pre-sales. And note that everyone is affected by this, not just Adam. Really, Adam is doing well. No need to worry. So I went to Apple.com directly-they list the top albums-as of 11:23am-1-Hilary, 2-Third Eye Blind, 3-NaTe, 4-James Taylor. I did see those other charts that claim they are ITunes Charts but are not on Apple they are independent sites claiming they are saying the "ITunes Charts". Go to apple directly that is the only true chart, NO SIGN OF his album anywhere he's not in the top 100 anywwhere. I wish I could copy the image & bring it over but I don't know how.

Spotify update: 6,108,893 streams! Almost 100k update again. Another Lonely Night: 253,435 (from 241,643) Underground: 244,908 (from 240,237) Evil in the Night: 129,214 (from 117,494) I confess to feeling a little 'taste' validation at the distribution of streams. I see all this pr going to Evil in the Night but I much prefer Another Lonely Night..and clearly, I am not alone. I wonder how much attention is paid to things like this? Adam has commented a couple of times that he misjudged Runnin... and ALN has the same appeal that Runnin had...a good melody Makes you want to sing along.... I agree 100% I loved Another Lonely Night the first second I heard it & have replayed it about as much as I did with Runnin. I love both of those two songs the most. I like pretty much all of them but those two are stand outs for me. However, hearing him sing (through You tube) Evil in the Night I really LOVED it the way he did it LIVE!!! So have been listening to that one now on repeat a lot too. It was awesome!!! I think the recorded one is good but I think there are parts where there is just too much background going on for me, (layering-sometimes too much) which I think is why I lOVE the live one at the KTUphoria concert. I like Ghost Town but don't love it as much as Another Lonely Night, which I think of all 4 of them I've heard so far I think should have been the 1st Single. However, he sings "Evil in the Night" so well that I hope he performs that one on GMA & the other shows. I LOVE his lower register. Slash told him on Idol that his lower register was awesome & he should use it more. I'm glad he's using it more now because it really shows his sick range & it sounds so good. LOVE his lower register. Also glad he's getting some dancers for Ghost Town for (I'm hoping) his TV appearances. I was surprised to see his performance on Ellen w/ out dancers just because the video is everyone dancing. I would also like to see him doing some moves w/ the dancers in the non-singing parts & some singing parts of the song because he does dance well. He just lacks the confidence to do it. With some basic choreography that he is comfortable with I think would be awesome. I loved the subtle dancing he did in the For Your Entertainment video, very cool. I really love that video. He's just so strong & powerful & in control in that video it's like a mini movie too, really cool.

I was there too w/ my husband it was an amazing concert. He was on fire that night he had some amazing dance moves that night too. I think he's tried to re-create those moves in other concerts, they were still good, but not the same level. We waited afterwards w/ a bunch of people outside on the side of he building for him to come out. He finally did & I swear he truly gave off this aura, what's crazy is my photos picked it up. All my pics of him have this strange light in them literally as if the camera was able to pick up the energy he gives off. He seemed super happy when he came out & he signed my iPhone case it was such an amazing night.

Just start your comment below the quote in the box. Make sure your below the box, then press create post! If you have trouble getting your cursor beneath the quoted comment, click the BBCode tab at the bottom. Then you will see the code for the end of the quote [ /quote] or something like that. Place your cursor past the last symbol, hit the return key and then start typing your response. To see how it will look when posted, you can click on the Preview tab. Thank you so much Cheriemelissa for the tips, testing it out on yours now but they are still going to the end of the thread with the whole post. Shouldn't it just add my line to yours & leave it in your spot in the thread or does it always re-post all of it & put it at the end.

So trying to post to KAT111's post & my post actually went inside hers, , sorry KAT111, now I don't know how to get it off. I will have to keep trying to learn how to do this. Ok I got it off hers & I think I figured this out now. Hitting the BBC button & preview was key thanks so much to whoever posted that, sorry can't remember who.
