TOH IG snippet from last night - 433k Twitter followers on this account quicksandjesus quoted: Not sure if I am reading the intent of the observer correctly, but I am a lifelong Elvis fan. As much as I love him, to my mind he couldn't even begin to hit the TOH note above. I think the Elvis comparisons more rightly belong in the "looks like" and the "has moves" and the "sex on a stick" categories. Also, great but very different voices, I think. And, as I said, I love me some Elvis. Just harder to get comparisons when they are not comparing like to like, imo. Never noticed in the beginning of this video, Elvis does a volume up gesture. and for those of you who are, as I am, a fan of Adam's lower register, I would love someday to hear him do this song. I think he could have such a fun time with it. And yes, I think he could do it. I pretty much think he would slay any song he sang.

It is weird, but yesterday my 'Adam live' playlist on shuffle kept jumping back to this one. Normally it shuffles through my 30+ favorite songs one by one before starting over. Not that I minded. It is still beautiful. "Outlaws of Love" is one of my favorite songs of his.

Thanks for the welcome adamrocks and augenpoesie.
I’ll try and post more. I have opinions about everything but I’m not one for sharing (introverted personality).
FYI, after the ‘Girl Crush’ performance I thought I would go spy on a Leona Lewis forum and see if they said anything about Adam and what they thought.
Not many mentions but some comments here and there. Generally they know that Adam is a good singer, performance almost universally liked, one or two thought Adam went a bit OTT at the end. That made me LOL because Adam was fairly restrained for him. It was my fave bit too, does anyone know what notes there were at the end?
Also, did we ever find out how 'Girl Crush' came about? Honestly, it just seems so random and out of the box. I mean Adam doesn't even get asked to do duets on pop award shows.
When I was spying on the Leona fans, one of them mentioned how they liked that Little Big Town had added Leona on Twitter but not Adam. I’m not on twitter, do we know if Little Big Town added Adam eventually?

"If I Can Dream" is my favorite Elvis song of all time. I have always wanted to hear Adam sing this song - I think it would be forever memorable and breathtaking. I love Elvis, so I take that concertgoer's critique as a huge compliment. heh.

What a lovely positive interpretation, FanofTheMan! I took it differently, maybe it was the "acted like" that made me look askance. Thanks for the different perspective.

Thank god for these videos - I know I was there and I drank it all in but it's a blur I've had the same experience with the shows I've gone to and really appreciate being able to watch them again.

Bringing this poll up yet again: Adam lost more tan 6% over the last 10 hours to Rob THomas. This is for a SINDICATED SPIN, which means over a hundred spins count... PLEASE VOTE IF YOU HAVE TIME! www.at40.com/pages/who-will-be-number-1

Does anyone know what the high note is at 6:07mins, also what are the pulsed notes at 6:12 and then 6:13 which seem to be slightly higher? I can’t tell. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYG94i7jUK8
