I think "Ghost Town" is a great radio single and I love listening to it, but it just doesn't translate well, for me, on stage. The Ellen Show performance was the best for me, so far. I really loved his performance of "Evil in the Night" and feel like that showcases Adam at his best, but I don't like the recorded version as well so I can see why it's not the single for radio. I just wish the two could go together better, meaning the song and the performance. Also, I'm really hating the hand in the pocket thing. I was hoping that wouldn't continue. Is it just me?  For some strange reason I find the hand in the pocket sexy and kind of dangerous... I agree, Krazykay. Reminds me of Dean Martin. It makes him look so relaxed, and, "I got this." Sorry, Jomama. |

Just based on the streaming data, YouTube and Social Media sentiment -- EITN appears to be a core fan favorite, but not a pop music listener favorite. [It is not the favorite of all core fans, just that most of the people playing it and "talking about it" are tightly connected to Adam fan networks.] Setting aside GT, which is being promoted, the most popular of the other TOH tracks so far is ALN. >> I have analyzed a ton of data to come to this conclusion. It is actually related to my day job.  Based on the comments I have heard from a few people who have heard the whole album -- TOH seems to be a great pop song. Seems like it might be single #2 -- just a guess. I am loving ALN, too. I'd love for that one to get some airplay. It has a really great hook, better than most any song I've heard in a long time. I do love EITN, but ALN has a sweetness to it that I am drawn to. EITN has a darker, sexier feel in contrast. I hope Eber is right about the song TOH. That one could be the next treasure. Won't be long now! |

SEXY... Love GT and think it's a great first single. Adam needed something different and outstanding to get him back in the public consciousness and GT is the perfect vehicle for that purpose, IMO. I don't think any of the other singles we have heard, tho great, would have served that purpose as well. |

Saw some responses and wanted to point out that the reason I don't like the hand in the pocket thing is because it doesn't look natural for Adam, imho. |

I apologize to all who were waiting for pictures from me. I took two pictures, when Adam came on stage, then I "paralyzed". I could not do anything other than stare at that perfect man.
Three minutes went by so fast and after that I was like a drowning which had just been offered a straw that allows rescue. And it is not enough to save me. Adam, I need more straws .....
