Well, Aleks, I love it when you "gets to thinking" and get "all wordy" on us! Wonderful post. In contrast, my love of Trespassing sounds a bit trite. Of course, I love the music; but what still makes me smile is my box set and the memory of how I seemed to be the first in the fandom to receive it. It was a little moment of fame for me and Adamtopia.
I remember this very well,
happy! Everyone went cuckoo when we discovered you were the first and only person to have the box sex in your hot little hands at the time. You were a very generous Canadian
glambert that day, sharing what you could with the rest of the fandom.
Hope you don't mind but I've copied a small sampling of your (and your techie's) posts for those who missed it - it was such fun! Here they are:
***********
- I got my box set of Trespassing today and I absolutely love it. So happy!!!
- I was wondering if other people have received it too?
- It is beautiful. It is metallic around Adam and his eyes so that when you move the box in the light, his eyes change colour -- yellow to silver to blue. There are two records with the songs lyrics on the back of two new pictures. There are 6 lithos -- good quality -- some new pics we haven't seen. There is a space in the bottom of the box for the cd/dvd to fit into.
- In the liner notes he thanks us GLAMBERTS (in big letters) all over the world: Without you, my fans, I wouldn't be making this album. You all pour out so much love and support. I always feel safe and sound performing for you because I know you have my back and share my vision. My sincerest thanks... Then he thanks Sauli and it goes on and on.
- I've got to go but my daughter is home and I will ask her if she can send you a picture of the liner notes. I don't want to desribe the new pictures because I don't want to spoil the surprise.
- This is happy’s tech support. My apologies for the size of these images, the print is so tiny.
- I'm back for a bit. Would you like a photo of the lyrics? You know, I only got an e-mail yesterday that it had shipped and then there it was this afternoon!!!
- I can give you the lyrics from the album and then I won't spoil the surprise of the other pics.
- My tech support is working on this now.
- I'm back for a little bit. I don't have time to read whole threads and had no idea that I was among the first to receive this. I thought I had missed the squeeing. I am very, very excited and so glad I can share it with you. I see Misha asked about the Naked Love/Pop That Lock lyrics and he is right. In the cd liner notes Pop That Lock starts with Left. Right. Step Up.
- I can't believe that I seem to be the only one with this box set until tomorrow. I'm glad I could share the notes and lyrics, but I would never leak the music. It is all so good and I love it. Adam has put together a fantastic album!!!
- Got to go for the night. Thank you all for squeeing with me. I love Adamtopia!!!
- Hi Guys, I had such a hard time getting to sleep last night because I was so excited. I felt like the cat that swallowed the canary, the goose that laid the golden egg, ... Am I really the only one with this box set??? Anyhow, it was such fun to share and I'm glad you are enjoying it.
- The lyrics posted are from the album liners -- the lyrics are correctly identified in the cd liner. I just didn't want to post those pages because they have some fun pictures of Adam and I didn't want to spoil the surprise.
- The box set is wonderful and I would definitely recommend buying it. I love it.
- Hi Guys, I just looked through the thread. Am I still the only one with this box set??? I had to laugh that someone thought I might be Adam leaking the liners. Far, far from it!!!
- My daughter suggested that I change my avatar to one of the new pics in this box and watch how the fandom erupts. We laughed because we both knew exactly which one to use. But I won't. I told her his official site is publishing the pics.
- Did I mention that it is a double album with four great pics on the covers and two on the liner notes. For all those waiting at the mail box, it came in a really big box, so you might have to watch out for UPS man.
- The Cukoo and Never Close our Eyes pics are Adamusing!!! in the cd liner. And one of them is in the album liner. You are going to laugh.
- Finally you guys have the music. I am beyond HAPPY!!! I've been feeling badly since Friday that I could not share. I've been blabbing on about the box and the pics and they are great but it's the music that is AMAZING!!!! I feel so much better now that you can hear it too. I've had very mixed feelings this weekend and now I feel great. ENJOY!!!
