I think Sosh took over updating Adam's wiki page some time ago. |

I haven't posted for a while...been very busy you know chasing around "Blighty" after a certain Young American Boy (Oh and Paris and Milan too)..... Had a Ball. Not come down yet but am pretty exhausted. I have been to 9 concerts each with different people and in different areas of the Arenas. The best for me was doing GA with the lovely SophieB and her sister in Liverpool. For the first time after seeing Adam 14 times I got close to him...close enough to touch his hand. What a stunner he is up close and personal...mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I have met so many different and interesting people...another group of great American Girls in Milan..memories of Las Vegas for me. I would have said Adam just could never get any better ...better looking...better moving....better singing....etc. but he did....he was better than perfection each time. The man is amazing. He was on fire in Liverpool...really CRAZY...I loved it. He could not keep still. Sheffield too...what a finale....just beautiful. Great feeling in his deliveries...great anticipation in the audience. The end a bitter sweet moment. So my thanks to everyone who has made this episode of my life so memorable. Firstly to the classy SophieB (and her lovely sister) who has made me feel so welcome at her home and helped me so much..my lovely husband who has come to 4 concerts with me and loves Adam, to my daughter who alerted me to Adam all those years ago and came to the 02 with me and met some of you lovely Atoppers, to my other friends who came with me and couldn't wait to see Adam...to the lovely Irish girl I slept with in Manchester (yes I know)....think what you like...and would not let me contribute towards the room....even the girl outside the NYE concert who gave Sophie and me such a laugh when she lost her front tooth(temporary crown)in the road in the dark !!!! to the nine year old girl who came and sat on my lap in Birmingham in the front row so she could see better....I could go but I know you have all nodded off now..but last and most certainly not least to our GFG AFL you are brilliant man in every way..you give so much of yourself and we just soak you up and up and up.... sounds like I am leaving somewhere re reading this...I am just still so emotional. will it go away...I hope not. So good! I enjoyed every word. Hope you don't mind if I tuck a link to this post in my playlist. |

Wonder how all these new Billboard rules will impact Adam's new music? twitter.com/mmadamimadamm/status/573276103730716672Big Sean Opens at No. 1 By BEN SISARIO MARCH 4, 2015 3:46 PM The 26-year-old rapper Big Sean is a protégé of Kanye West, and gets plenty of paparazzi attention as the boyfriend of the pop starlet Ariana Grande. Now he has another claim to fame: a No. 1 album. Big Sean’s new album, “Dark Sky Paradise” (G.O.O.D./Def Jam), opened at the top of Billboard’s latest chart, with 139,000 copies sold, according to Nielsen Music. By album sales alone, “Dark Sky” barely beat the next-best seller, Kid Rock’s “First Kiss” (Warner Bros.), which opened at No. 2 with 137,000 copies sold. But recent changes to Billboard’s chart rules widened Big Sean’s lead.
First, “Dark Sky” was far more popular on streaming services like Spotify, with songs getting 17 million plays in the United States; “First Kiss,” on the other hand, had only 580,000 streams. Billboard’s rankings also reflect how many individual tracks have been downloaded from an album, and Big Sean had the advantage there, too, with 218,000 tracks, versus just 85,000 for Kid Rock. In Billboard’s new rules, 1,500 streams or 10 track downloads are each equivalent to the sale of one complete album. So by that formula, “Dark Sky Paradise” ended up with 173,000 “album equivalent units” and “First Kiss” had 146,000.
As a sign of just how many streams it takes to make a difference on the new chart, take a look at Drake’s latest album, “If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late” (Cash Money/Republic). The album continues to be a huge success online, this week racking up 34.6 million streams. But that was not nearly enough to push the album toward a higher position on the chart. With 59,000 full album sales, “It You’re Reading This” fell two spots this week to No. 4, just behind the “Fifty Shades of Grey” soundtrack (Republic Records), which holds at No. 3 with 67,000 sales and 13.3 million streams. Also this week, Taylor Swift’s “1989” (Big Machine) falls one to No. 5 in its 18th week on the chart, and Imagine Dragons’s “Smoke & Mirrors” (KIDinaKORNER/Interscope), last week’s No. 1, fell eight spots to No. 9. |

Just saw TV line Motown songs selected by contestants. Clark Beckham singing "Tracks Of My Tears" Maybe big mistake me thinks I don't think it's likely Clark's take on TOMT will even remotely resemble Adam's. Adam's version is just not in Clark's wheelhouse vocally (or visually for that matter) at all IMO. |
