Fact: Adam has one of the best voices I have ever heard. Period. Across all genres. His voice makes me feel good.
Fact: Adam is stunningly good looking.
Fact: Adam, from all appearances, is a genuinely nice guy. Plus he is articulate, witty, funny, fun-loving, outgoing, compassionate, caring, and joyful.
Adam is a delight in my life.
Fact: Adam's goal at this point is to be a top 40 radio pop star. His song choices, his singing style, and his fashion sense are all geared to that goal.
Fact: I, personally, find much of the top 40 pop music and performers not to my taste. It doesn't make me feel good. It irritates me.
Fact: I don't get many of the hot, up-to-the-minute fashions. The look is not attractive to me.
Do you see my dilemma? I love Adam. I don't love what he is currently focused on. Whose problem is that? Mine. Should Adam change his goals and direction, his clothing choice and song selection to please me? Of course not. Am I frustrated that I cannot get exactly what I want from Adam, the artist? I confess I am. Again, MY problem.
While ATop is known for its inclusiveness, and its diversity of opinions and perspectives, perhaps here is not the place to express my frustration and discontent. Perhaps, here is the place to gush about Adam and rejoice in what he is currently doing artistically.
It is good to see so many Glamberts thrilled about every song, every outfit, every performance. I wish Adam every success and hope all his dreams come true. (And I secretly hope that during another stage of his career, he will produce and perform the kind of music that feeds my soul, too.)
