So, on the metacritic site, four of the five weakest reviews for Trespassing are from UK publications. So much for the UK critics embracing the album. However, I just noticed that three of the publications (Guardian, Observer, Q) tend to give lower ratings on average than other reviewers. So maybe they are just tough graders? It's too bad, though -- I would have liked to have seen Trespassing's overall score at least equal FYE (overall score 71). |

Just now on TV .... Before They Were Stars (People Mag) mentioned in Inside Edition with Adam as one of them - others mentioned G. Cloney, K. Perry, Angelina Jolie, etc. Adam pictures shown when they were young (high school grad pic) and now, they showed Adam's video of the red carpet from TFM  |

It says August 2012 ? So it's not in the stores or on line yet? Did I understand correctly ? The site says the new issue is the September one so the August issue must be out now? I don't know. |

This is mind boggling to me. No actual beating heart? The heart is beating throughout!

Wasn't it 80 at the highest? And wasn't it the UK that was raving about his album early on? Very disappointing. I've decided not to read album reviews any more because it upsets me so much. |

Well, I ordered Sauli's Fault magazine -- I decided I'd been enjoying his blogs and roadshows (thanks to Mia and Zinnia) and it was payback time. Regarding the word fate or faith, you can live your life having faith that things will go well and if something unfortunate crops up, you have faith in your abilities to navigate the currents. Wonderful! It's good to show some appreciation for Adam's love and muse... Plus your reasons, plus the pics and interview are amazing :D |

Neither BTIKM or NCOE were added to the MTV Video Playlist -- so there was no chance either video would get a VMA. No reason to be angry. Is there a reason why NCOE wasn't added? Sorry if this has been discussed.. can't remember. |

Unbelievable review.. were we listening to the same album? Almost mean in it's remark,because ,IMHO ,critic is deaf to the very emotional and poignant heartbeat that is expressed ,by Adam. on Trespassing. |
