Misquotes and errors in translation have caused many a problem in the past. It is widely held that an error in translating a word from Japanese to English resulted in the US dropping atomic bombs on Japan. www.cracked.com/article_19120_6-mistranslations-that-changed-world_p2.htmlMoral of the story? Always read translated quotes with a large amount of skepticism. However, in the case of the mistranslation of Adam's comments about his popularity in the US, I don't think Adam needs to seek out the nearest bomb shelter. |

Don't delete, Viv! The vid is good, why would it be blocked in Montana? Because it's Montana??? I knew I lived in the boonies, but this is ridiculous! Seriously, I can't view it but members outside the US can..lol.. Anyone have a working link to BTBW US??? I checked archives, no luck. I truly love this performance. Appreciate any help.

Dear Moderator, I value your forum and have read many valuable posts over the last year on it. I also appreciate all the time that is put into supporting Adam. I'm very frustrated as a die-hard fan to see so much negativity. I really believe that many others (those that want to hurt Adam)also watch this site so it is very frustrating to see so many negative comments from the members. I think a lot of the members don't think before they post and don't really think about what will truly benefit Adam in the long haul. Expressing incorrect posts about Adam's comments in the Vietnam interview makes it look like his career is a failure and I'm sure those that want to discredit and destroy him will have a lot to say outside of this forum. Thanks for listening. Don't you worry. Nothing that's said here can hurt Adam's career so true but by that same token none of the negative energy helps his career either. Adam is a big believer in positive energy and putting good things into the universe in order to get good things back in return. I completely understand thebean and agree that there are those that only wish ill towards Adam who watch this site and take great pleasure and fuel from the negative comments by the members here. They take those comments and spread them around and while it does no damage to Adam's career it certainly does damage to the fandom. Obviously nothing is all sunshine and roses but fans shouldn't be the most negative voices in the crowd and sometimes it seems that way. |

Quoting myself here because I haven't heard from any of our talented techies. puleeez??? Calling on any computer/YT techies. Here's what I would love to have. First, the clip from Behind the Music of Adam singing at age 18 and saying if he can be doing this for the rest of his life he will be a very happy man. Then, flash forward 12 years to the China interview starting at 23:17 where he says he now knows he will be able to be performing for the rest of his life. Anyone have the skills to blend those two clips together? I think it would be very touching. Thanks in advance to anyone willing to attempt it. |
