Why nothing on touring with Queen, and the tour's success? Hmm.... They opened the door and Adam blew it. He could have said much more re world tours etc. I liked this version ...like the sound ...that fading noise in the background...last night was more similar to ...well I do not know waht you call it ...kinda like a dry feed (as some who know music have said about some performances). The outfit...lol...like all but the shirt ...still laughing over that. His movements and dance were the best he has done...more authentic and it used the space when not singing. The camera kept us entertained with clips of the band to fill the void etc...for those watching for the first time the song seemed to have less down time. Onward with ALN!! IMO, Adam is in Solo mode now. Remember his tweet right after the Santiago show to thank the fans for making GT a hit? He noted the YT views and Spotify plays? It was him telling us to focus on solo career now!

ETA: and theosgma, I agree about the right touch and may I add a great photo too!

Adam the solo artist,but mentioned Queen and tour .. also loved the snippet of Another Lonely Night.. I think this song has become my favorite and I love them all on TOH..I listen to the album, in bed, before going to sleep..IMHO so much better than watching TV. Terrific performance On TODAY

maybe they are looking for this to be a sales push using the hit single? After all they've done successfully to relaunch Adam I am hopeful all will fall into place with the next single. I am sure that it will all fall into place. Looks like they are doing two things -- 1. Pushing the album ahead of the holiday buying season. (clear objective) 2. Using GT (which is a hit song but has low burnout) to push to social media teasing the new single. (seems apparent when you look at Snapchat and Shazam). Also, it appears they have some GT-Halloween promo in the works. It is all very tightly coordinated and I think we will have to wait until the end of the week to see what they are up to. Also, looks like ALN radio impact date no sooner than 10/20 and maybe later. Could be after Halloween? I was expecting 10/20 -- and that is still possible. Yeap, thinking along similar lines. Let me just throw another aspect into that mix. a) The European markets are ready to move on and have had GT for a long time, and they don't have 2 weeks of Halloween music on their radio coming up. WB might be using October to start ALN in Europe and run with GT in the US for one more month. b) By connecting GT and ALN and the album, they get ready to promote ALN in the US in November, which fits the mood of the song, and they probably will be using the anticipated success in continental Europe as fuel. Now, if we could just get the UK on board. I think, the only issue they have, is to get three rather difficult titles (TOHalbum - ALN - GT) straight in the various talking points. You could see that confusion going on a bit during that Today Show segment. They were not quite sure how the pieces were fitting together. They knew they were supposed to promote GT, but it was still a bit convoluted.
