Well, my lovelies ....I'M BACK !!!!!I heard your request KittyKay At least for the time being....cable/internet is up, but the tech guy said it might be kinda on again/off again for the next couple of weeks....so thought I'd post quickly while I can. I have so much catching up to do. I want to thank you all again for all the well wishes for me and my family....we're trudging along....hope all this "remodeling" is finished before tour # 2 starts. Still no word from any of the insurance companies....fingers crossed on that front. What's all this talk about the rapture? I quickly skimmed the thread. If it occurs later today, I guess I'll see a few of you in heaven (Mayumi & justwishin for sure....needacoke, I'm not so sure lol) The rest of you heathens, party hard !!! (What a crock of BS....HaHa). Happy Birthday to my dear friend MANGOKAT !!!!! Have a great day with that precious Mr. Mangokat......I love you !!!! Not a day goes by that I don't think about you when I put on the infinity ring you gave me. Thanks to Needacoke and Justwishin for posting my updates...I love you both, too !!! And thanks to Q3 for setting up a thread for all my well wishers to post....You're "THE SHIT" !!! I love you !!! Also, I saw the rear of my house at the beginning of the ABC News clip you linked.....thanks for finding that. I'm off to scan the threads.....mostly looking for pretty pics !

I guess I'm physically incapable of NOT commenting on the Beth performance whenever it comes up, lol. For me, it was iconic and utterly perfect. And more so in hindsight, imo. Given that it was Adam's last solo on the finale, I feel like his choice of Beth was a statement he wanted to make.
Based on what Adam said in the RS interview, the perf with KISS was a giant WTF for him. Not sure what the producers were thinking, but as Q3 said, Adam took it and made sparkling champagne out of lemons. I can only imagine Adam doing his research, listening to the KISS catalog, trying to find something to which he could connect.
And brilliantly, he decided upon Beth, a pretty enough little song. When sung by KISS, it speaks to the struggle of a musician torn between the pull of his art and his fellow artists, and the woman waiting at home alone.
When sung by Adam, well, there is that meaning also, but the sparkle in his eye when he looks into the camera, and the little brow lift at the end... It was pretty much a wink at the audience, imo, and an "inside" joke for those viewers who wouldn't be surprised by his big announcement in RS a few weeks later, lol. Beautiful!
Just for kicks, I found a YT of a KISS live perf of the song, and it's actually quite good, but Adam's vocals leave this in the dust. I do love the orchestral arrangement tho:
