22 C is comfortable, better without the chilly breeze though, what we have now is sticky and uncomfortable...see, now I'm whinging about the weather..  I'll be in the UK next week, hoping it will feel fresher there..  LOL!!!!! Welcome here, we'll have 12C next week, it sure is 'fresh'!  So, willkommen, bienvenue, welcome, ha!

These are my fav tracks off TOH. Seeing I saw someone list their one haha. 1. The Original High (What Born this Way was to Gaga, TOH is to Adam) 2. Lucy (When the bridge drops, and that gap combined with Adams amazing high note, and Brians insane riff incredible, I can also see a lot of ideas for a music video in this one) 3. There I said it (Prob Adams best studio vocal ever) 4. Another Lonely Night (Reminds me of a gaga song) 5. Evil in the Night (Another potential radio single and mv) 6. Rumors (Might be Adams biggest radio hit, its got an immediate hook and that's important) 7. Underground (Always wanted Adam to do rnb, and this song is very solid) 8. Ghost Town (So unique and different, I love how its very folsky, accoustic ballad guitar, thinks its a rock song then drops this house beat really good) 9. Things I diddn't say (Really love Adams falsetto) 10. Heavy Fire ( Really rock n roll) 11. Light (Grows on You) All the BT are solid. I think Trespassing was too stylistic. TOH reflects Adams personality more, loving it. His best work in his career. Career defining. Cool idea I'll try too!! 1. The Original High (Magical, the all-time best combination of lyrics, melody, and production on any Adam song as far as I'm concerned. And I never thought the word "medication" could be so musical.) 2. Shame (Skanky bubblegum pop with campy falsetto and ear worms out the wazoo is all I've ever wanted in life.) 3. These Boys (The best saccharine yodeling indie pop this side of The Kooks.) 4. After Hours (So chill. So sexy.) 5. Rumors (This is a fucking Godzilla of a perfect pop song.) 6. Ghost Town (Probably the most ambitious song Adam's ever done and I love the emphasis on lyrics over bombast, vocally and musically.) 7. Lucy (This is such a simplistic song but it hits hard. I think this one was born for live performance though.) 8. Underground (Adam does dirty minimal R&B and pulls it off, this dude is just full of surprises.) 9. Things I Didn't Say ( GOOD pop song. Bordering on fluff though so I didn't think time will be kind to it.) 10. There I Said It (This is some Daniel Bedingfield-sized balladry right here.) 11. Heavy Fire (Adam does trip-hop. And it's good.) 12. The Light (Good dance song but I don't think the hooks are that strong.) 13. Evil in the Night (I'm digging the funky vibe and the vocals are absolutely on point but that chorus is so damn weak to me.) 14. Another Lonely Night (Nice chords. Other than that I think it's a little bland and predictable.) Oh, what a good idea. My list is solely based on what I love and like, not what might be good on radio. How much fun I have listening to the song. [The production on the album is amazing!!!] 1. The Original High (I LOVE THIS SONG. I could just leave this on repeat. I really want to hear this loud, loud in a club in Ibiza -- I am dancing to it right now. Most artists would use 2 or 3 vocalists to do a song like this. This will be killer live -- hopefully with lasers and smoke!) 2. Ghost Town (This song is one of my favorite Adam recordings ever. Complex and eminently re-listenable.) 3. There I Said It (Adam's vocals and the spare, percise instrumentation. Really simple song, but it has a deep emotional connection with me. It is because of how it is sung. It will probably be my favorite live performance song.) 4. Another Lonely Night (OK I know it is predictable and has little new about it, but I feel good when I sing along to it. Will be a blast live. Yes, I have it on repeat right now. Adam's vocal on this is so smooth and silky. And I love the moo! And I flove the hmmmmmm near the end. Let me play that again.) 5. The Light (This song has some cool vocal tricks in it and is so danceable. It could move up to #3 in a few weeks. Improves after a few listens. I want a great remix of this!!) 6. These Boys (The most fun track on the album -- but the vocal is spectacular. Reminds me of George Michael in a good way -- beautiful sung pop song with an infectious beat. Good retro.) 7. Underground (I hope that Adam does some more R&B music -- another track where his vocals elevate a song that has pretty average lyrics. But the vocals and instrumentation work together so way -- and the production on this is just brilliant.) 8. Rumors (Fun track, made for radio. It has a great hook. And they sound great together. Not sure what he will do with this on live but I look forward to seeing it. Makes me dream of Adam touring with Tove Lo. Could be the biggest single from the album.) 9. Shame (Camp, camp, camp -- Adam as Katy Perry with the Asia themes. Would love to see Adam in a kimono and kabuki makeup singing this. Oh riots would ensue but it would be fun! This is #9 but so much fun -- just too many good songs on this album.) 10. Heavy Fire (Trippy! I feel like Adam build a time machine and let me get in it for a few minutes. And the vocal at the end is amazing!) 11. Things I Didn't Say (This is a pop song that could actually be a radio single. Nothing new, novel or interesting about it, but I like it.) 12. Evil in the Night (This song has some cool clever stuff in it -- for example: Bad, Police references -- but really wish the lyrics were better. This is the track that has vocals on it that remind me of Adam circa 2010 and certain to be a fan favorite. Probably will be fun live.) 13. Lucy (This song will be fun live but I find it a bit repetitive and boring particularly during the "Lucy" chant. Brian sounds great on this but I would have liked more, slightly heavier guitar. I love the "Diamond Dogs" shout out but that seems kind of random in this song.) 14. After Hours (I like this but it is one of the more predictable tracks on the album. I do not love Adam's vocal on this -- it lacks the richness of some of the other tracks. I would actually like to hear him sing this in a higher key. If JT had not already done a lot of songs like this, I would have probably ranked it higher.) >> It is a testimony to how much I like this album that I could listen to my #14 track on repeat and be happy. What a fun album!! |

Brian Friedman is tweeting about The National Lottery show which is live.
The filming seems like it was for something else.
