Dear Adam.
Please, please, please, please, please, please, PLEASE pick a first single that is completely in the "sweet spot" of your range so you can sing the shit out of it live every.single.time.
My blood pressure thanks you.
-HSM

Why?????????? Adam has had a dozen live performances since the AMAs! Plus, Adam is a smart guy. I'm sure he learned from his mistakes from his AMA performance. I agree with all that BUT.....my mind knows it's illogical to have those feelings, but that will not stop my body responding in panic based on the memory of past experience. Even tho I'm sure the pr would be incredible, just the thought puts that sick feeling back in my stomach. :-/

Nah - I want dancers, choreo, the works. He just has a significantly better song and sings the fuck out of it. Yeah that would be nice, but I want him to make a statement with his VOICE. To do a total 180 from last time when it was all antics and LOOK MA I GOT DANCERS AND A BUNCH OF STAIRS! YEEHAW!! To just come out and slay a song this time without all the accoutrements. Well, I am not saying he has to sit on a stool under a solitary spotlight, but something significantly more toned down. IDK, YMMV. Nah. I want flash. I want leathery glam. I want him to put on a spectacle. I want him to put on the kind of performance that he meant to do the first time, but pull it off perfectly. THAT would be the statement. But most of all, I just reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally want him to hit the notes. ETA: And I also want whatever he sings at his first televised performance to NOT be the first time he sings the song in front of an audience. The first debut of any song Adam sings isn't his best. He typically needs about 2-3 outings before it reaches the level of OMG. Add Adam's now-admitted nerves before televised performances, I want this song to be sung at least twice in front of some audience before sung on tv. I volunteer to be part of the test audience.

The thought of the AMAs puts my stomach in all sorts of turmoil. My first thouht is to join many in whimpering under the bed and waiting until the performance ends. But, if it happens I will watch.
For whatever reason (well, Adamptopia has been known to take strange tangents), this scene from Henry V is what came to my mind. YMMV. It's Shakespeare and Kenneth Branagh. You might want to scroll. Hey!! Sometimes I need chunkeymonkey and sometimes the bard.

That reminds me that after Pink did her sexed-up crotch smoosh a few years ago at the AMA's (I think it was the AMA's) the next time she appeared on an awards show (maybe the AMA's again) she simply sat on a stool with her guitar and sang a beautiful soft song. It was quite amazing. I think it would be the same for Adam.

However, IIRC that she had that song as part of her tour set for a very long time, and - while not many people outside of her fans knew of that routine - the song and the crane work was second nature to Pink at that point. She could focus on the song. Not the lyrics, not the choreography. The song. As I said, I really want Adam to have performed whatever his new song is a batch of times BEFORE its get debuted on tv. So he can sell the song (and, yeah, himself too! ;D )
