In discussions yesterday about mainstream acceptance and success we talked about Adam's undeniable talent. At the other end of the spectrum... Here is article on Huffpost about a leak of unautotuned Brittany... listen if you dare. www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/07/08/britney-spears-alien-without-auto-tune_n_5567640.html?utm_hp_ref=mostpopularThe producer claims she was doing warm up vocalisations... #yepsure #myass #yikes While ideally I would love Adam to be all over the charts at #1 if he has to descend into pop pap like this to achieve it then not so much. Fascinating! First off, absolutely NOT warm up vocalizations. There are specific exercises a singer does to warm up. This ain't it. Maybe it is a "run thru" rather than a full out singing for recording. BUT.......... it is terribly out of tune. A good singer, heck a mediocre singer does not sing out of tune when their voice is not warmed up, or when doing a run thru. Any musician with an ear and with technique to play/use their instrument accurately will be on pitch as long as they can hear the backing and hear themselves. For someone with a good ear, singing off key is actually incredibly difficult to do. Your mind just naturally wants to correct for any slight errors. In fact, other singers listening will find their throat muscles tightening up, subconsciously straining to correct the faulty pitch they are hearing. In addition to pitch, there are all kinds of problems with this singing. I knew she was not much of a singer, but, this is actually shockingly BAD. They are not only correcting for pitch, they are correcting to make the voice sound at all good in terms of tonal quality. Even more amazing, reading the comments, there are those who say "it's not really that bad."     Yeah, it is. And then some. Gotta go listen to some Adam and wash out my ears. |

I didn't plan my trip to LA to visit my daughter right. I'm here now. I wish I had planned one week earlier and could have gone to the forum. I will be back east in time for the MD concert. Can't wait! Being here in LA makes me feel close to Adam even when he's not here. My daughter works in West Hollywood. I walked around while she worked and kept thinking that this is his stomping ground. Do any Atop people live in West Hollywood? I'll be killing time there again tomorrow and Friday during the day. Are there any must see Adam related things I should do?

Agree--that recording is really bad. But something about it sounds fishy to me. It sounds like a young girl's voice--like it has been doctored to sound worse instead of simply "au natural." |

His beard looks very gingery to me. No added color. Love the caption by the guy he is with!
