10.22.12 Five concerts in Japan Feb 2013

It was not one of the better performances on the show. I thought the young lady was better. Adam Levine didn't say anything about the song itself. I hope he now knows who sang the song--this year.

That's the direction that my thoughts are going too. Not narrower profile, but rather wider profile for Adam. Overall artist, performer and entertainer, rather than focusing only on the classic album recording and then touring and then album recording path. But that is not a short term plan, that is a long term plan, because for now albums are the expected direction based on present contract agreements.

I think that Adam's music lends itself splendidly for film. I thought that about DTRH and Voodoo, but also in a different way for Broken Open and on the second album I can see so many tracks used in such a way too.

I hope that DMG is fully exploring those avenues for him.

I am not sure how much Adam can go into the full blown acting career. He clearly has some talent, but it is so raw and untrained that at least I cannot judge how much further he could take this at this stage in his life with obviously only part time attention to that area of his career. Maybe yes, I just don't know.

I was also astonished to see how much artistic talent Adam has when it comes to drawing (i.e. Berlin picture). If he has the ability to sketch an idea visually, like he supposedly did at that radio station in Berlin, then he could make use of that talent artistically.

He could have his songs visually expressed on stage, some in dance, some in theatrical performances, some by supporting them with visual art. Adam tends to have so much going on in one song, so many symbolic meanings and topics and thoughts that are all hidden and layered in his lyrics and also in his very colorful melodic interpretations and arrangements, that a visual interpretation could take it even further. This is not something that has a natural outlet or medium already developed, it is something that he would have to develop around his own art.

But I think that his core audience is willing to eat up whatever he artistically creates and others will become interested, if it is meaningful to them. This has nothing to do with the classic pop artist direction, but I think that there is unexplored territory there for Adam.

I do think that radio - at least in the US - is just too crude and primitive to even get Adam and the audiences left who are still listening to radio are not used to anything of quality either and it is just pearls before the swine, as the saying goes.

In other countries that may still work, but I am not hopeful that it will work here in the US. That said, I don't think at all that Trespassing as an album is done, perhaps it is done on US radio pretty soon, whenever Trespassing peaks, but TV, film, touring and one-off events, I think that Trespassing has still much to give and hope that many new folks will detect it this way.

And if we may dream, it even gets a Grammy nomination, then it could have a whole new lease on life too.
