Me, too, MyS*&@^#r. You’re always one of my “go to girls” so speak up and each of us can take it or leave it, just as we always do. In real life I am way, way, way more outspoken than I am on here, so I for one appreciate your honesty. MyS*&@^#r..I'm very disappointed and worried about the timing release on Adam's second album. I can't help it, I'm invested and want his career to be what he wants it to be. I have certainly said how I feel and think we all should be able to be honest with our feelings. WE are here because we love Adam and support him, IMHO ,we also want him to grow a bigger base world wide. I know I've been waiting to buy tons of cds ,ready to face book everything he sings,etc. Maybe it's my fantasy ,that I feel part of the PR process .We're his fans.. how should we feel when there isn't much to fan over?If Adam reads some of the fan blogs,he will at least know just how much we miss him and his new music.. Just sayin.At least we really care,is that so bad??  Yeah. The news IS disappointing. For crying out loud, everyone deserves a chance to vent without being scolded. Isn't that part of what having a board is for? There was a great quote once from Texas Longhorns coach Mack Brown that seems appropriate here. Mack once said, "We do have one of the few fan bases that get on suicide watch after a win."  |

Suddenly the words from NoAngel's essay a couple of weeks ago don't seem like just a joke anymore: Oh dear. But, that was supposed to be a joke, not a premonition... :-/ LOL! I'm thinking March, so maybe you were only off by a month |

Sigh. Oh, well.
I am desperate for new music from Adam. I NEED new music from Adam. But, I have needed new music from Adam all of 2011. The thing about my obsession is, I am so enamored by the man and his music that I am insatiable. I can barely remember when I wasn't. When the new single comes out I will play it excessively for a few weeks and then look around and say, "Okay, what's next?" When the new album comes out (in Jan, Feb, March, April???) I will be in seventh heaven and play it non-stop on my iPod for a month or two, and then look around and say, "Okay, what's next?" Wait ANOTHER two years for album #3? I'll never survive!
The plain truth is I cannot get enough of Adam. There is no way that he can give enough interviews, appear on enough TV programs, release enough music, tweet enough twats to satiate me for more than a short period of time. The problem is entirely mine, not Adam's. So, I will have to find a way to deal with my addiction. I am not willing to go into rehab or enter a twelve-step program, as that would require me to give up Adam completely, like an alcoholic has to give up drinking, period. Nope, ain't gonna do that. Instead, I am gonna give myself a good attitude adjustment.
Three years ago my life was looking rather dull; black and white. Adam sang "Mama" and the world changed to technicolor. That's a good thing. I'm gonna enjoy the new music whenever Adam graces us with it. In the meantime, I'm gonna take my paint and brushes and maybe a little glitter, and find other stuff to glamorize.

Hello everyone, Busting out of lurking to deal with "2012" I work on Wall Street and know nothing about this business except what I have learned here, but it seems to me that what we need most is a single and that seems to still be on the "in about 8 weeks" time range. Once we have the single we will see Adam everywhere....debut, talk shows, radio interviews etc.,. We will have an album title and presumably a pre order on Amazon and other places. More importantly tHe rest of the world will see him too....and hear him. If there is one thing that has been made crystal clear to us all t is that the first single is critical and this will give Adam and the team the time and focus on the first track that it needs. It's not as if he will sing anything else than the one song on TV for months anyway, even if he had 10 albums out that would be the plan. As for sales, I think for Adam the first week being in the high sales black Friday time frame is just a bit less important as he has us to give a boost to week one. And he will have a chance to chart higher than he would in November. Add to that, the fact that this album will have to last us, and him, for a long time. This timing means he could have had two smash singles and a still high charting album on people's minds just as he starts to tour for the summer... So, bring on the single, and let the games begin! OK, cooler heads MAY prevail by the end of the day:-) I was thinking this too... more Adam exposure over a longer time. The single promo going into the holidays, and then the Album promo in the winter/spring - ish... whenever that will be. I secretly hope he will release more than one single. Perhaps one in the US and another internationally too... so in the end/beginning we have two out there in the glamosphere... One can dream... |

I'm just starting this thread. Been reading all the angsty (and non-angsty) stuff on twitter. Need a moment (3 days?) to process.  |

But what does Eber's tweet mean? What is Adam trusting and defending? Is he the one that wants a later release? Is is about what songs are on the album? Single?
Inquiring minds want to know!

Profound, Cassie. Adam has enriched our lives and introduced so much excitement, anticipation, and new friends into them that we’ve become dependent on him/it. I’m the worst offender. However, things are going to happen in their own time, no matter our feelings and wishes, so maybe we should take a step back and try (really hard) to remember how we filled our time and maintained our lives BEFORE “Mama.....” I just yesterday told my son I couldn’t make use of his beautiful, secluded, peaceful lake house for a few weeks (all to myself after 2 months of hustle and bustle of visiting my daughter, sil, and 3 grandkids with all the happy mayhem that entails) because it doesn’t have Wifi. Three years ago, I would have, and sometimes did, jump at the chance. Still not sure I can be away from Adam and y’all for that long, but maybe I’ll compromise and drive the 18 miles to the nearest civilization (McDonalds) every other day. I’m taking a deep breath and considering it. |
