I think that the problem that I had with FYE, IIHY, and WWFM, which I really think, well I think I can say, I know that Adam probably won't go through with this Adam #2 is that, for those singles Adam was mainly trusting in and listening to the proven hit makers, ie. Max Martin, Dr. Luke, in whatever formula of what was proven to work with other artists, instead of listening to his instincts as well, as to what works for him.
Wow that is a bad run on sentence. But anyway, yeah, I think that when he was able to Adamize and tweak these songs, it sounded better then it did initially did in the beginning for some performances.

I remember all of us being on line watching this either via TV or for us West Coasters, a stream on the computer. We were all stunned at the performance. Stunned in a good way! I think I may have been speechless! I had 2 friends, who knew I was a big Adam fan, call me afterwards and tell me how impressed they were and how he really showed up the talent for that year. |

This is one of my favorite performances, except for the excess smoke, mainly because it was so unexpected! I remember all the amazing write ups that came right after that too...some of the best I've read I love that bedazzled jacket...wonder why we've not seen it again. |

I agree he definitely Adamized the songs I wish Adam would just release a snippet the 5 week wait is tearing me asunder.  |

Another great pop-up video!! Oh this song, I remember that I really loved this song, still don't know what he wouldn't do for love but yeah, the pop up videos are nice. At first I thought that they were like the videos from the Canadian show, Video on Trial, with the commentary. |

I finally figured out that the white thing on the top hat is an animal skull. Am I the last to know this? lol

I agree! On U.S. TV, I think we got 2 really good performances of IIHY on Ellen and The Tonight Show (and an awesome performance of Sleepwalker on the Tonight Show, in full Romulan garb!). There were a lot more performances of WWFM, of course, because Adam was on tour shortly after IIHY was released. I can't remember all of the WWFMs (Letterman, SYTYCD, Tonight Show, Ellen, etc.), but this is one of my favorites, from Grammy week this year: I'll never forget this performance..the acapella..  No words. |
