Just watched the Matinee vids. Don't kill me but I prefer Adam with the backing tracks :-[ It's because of the funk and fireceness of the songs. It's why Fever in Glam Nation sounds better. It's not Monte, it's the backing tracks! I would fuckin LOVE to hear Shady just once with a backing track! I would proably die of funky happiness! |

No breaks in singing ( for the first time - I like the unrelentness of it) and there are other differences, too... Randomly picked for the sake of comparison: |

[/IMG] [/quote] Me three. ;D The first couple of performances of BTIKM were done with backing tracks and IMO were pretty flawless and were what I have come to expect from an Adam performance. Those are the times where I can see why "others" think Adam might be lip syncing, because the song sounds so close to the CD. I don't think it has anything to do with the band, backing singers or anything else. IMO, some songs need Adam backing Adam to sound like the songs on the CD. This is especially important when doing promo on TV or big radio promo events like the Jingle Bell Balls, where there are potential new fans listening. The back-up singers can sing along, but I miss Adam's voice in the background on live performances. |

All the single-selling angst is starting to remind me of the presidential campaigns. As if having all the answers is as easy as pie if we had the right people making the decisions. It is a sucky situation no matter how we look at it but I am not sure what magic tricks fans want Adam's team to come up with. I meant to add to my pledge: if Adam doesn't get Idol then I will refrain from feeling like the experts know less than I do about selling songs to radio and, instead, will assume there is a lot going on behind the scenes that I will never know about and they have Adam's and their best interests and pocketbooks in mind. Why would we assume Adam would put up with anything less?
ETA I have always felt that nobody can replace adam--even in backup vocals. His layering is so beautiful. This maybe why I m shocked to find I prefer many recorded songs to the live this era.

OT
I had never heard of Alex Clare who was discussed earlier and on the radio play list Q3 posted. The song Too Close really did take a long time to build on radio. The video was from March, 2011 ( and now has over 21 million views on YT). Maybe his being British added to the slowness of breaking here.
