Cassie...or some other type expert :-) Adam's speaking voice often has a slightly 'nasel' sound to me...especially [but not exclusively] in the morning...and we have discussed this. My question is...how would a tonsilectomy/adnoidectomy affect Adam's singing voice? I remember when my youngest daughter had her tonsils and adnoids out, her voice sounded completely different and it was a shock [she was only 4 at the time..but she had extremely large t's and a's and surprisingly, the dr suggested removal. Eeek!! Don't even say it!! /o\ Adam's voice doesn't sound nasally to me at all (of course, I've lived my entire life about an hour from where he's lived almost his entire life, so if it's an accent thing, I wouldn't hear it). Sure, occasionally you'll hear that just-woken-up grogginess of slightly stuffed up tone if he HAS just woken up, but everybody has that. Adam doesn't seem to have any laryngitis, allergies or any sinus issues other than an occasional cold as he was able to do his 118 shows without missing a single one, that would belie that he does not have any chronic issues in that regard. If he could travel at the rate he did between June 2009 and Dec. 2010 and seem only minimally sick (he should have been in a constant state of exhaustion, but never seemed to be), he's extraordinarily healthy. (Not THAT way  – Okay, well, yes, that way too) In the U.S., they almost never take out tonsils anymore. You have to have chronic issues (meaning tonsillitis three to four times in a year as a child and even then, most doctors will advise against it). I've known two people who have had their tonsils out as adults (18 and 22) and they were MISERABLE. The recovery time is very rough for adults and both of them said if they had it to do over again, they would not have the surgery. The thought of any type of unnecessary surgery anywhere near his vocal chords and sinuses is scary to say the least. Oh I wasn't suggesting he needed it or any such thing...I could just see them still 'there' and wondered. I definitely hear a nasaly tone to his speaking voice...not singing though. It is much more prominant in the groggy morning...but to me, it is always a little bit there, very similar to my daughter's voice before the surgery. That is all....not advocating anything nor showing concern. Just curious.....on a slow day your mind can do all sorts of things....:-) eta....I know nothing here but maybe he tends to talk in his head voice predominantly rather than his chest voice....could that make sense... |

It was that Adam tweeted the name of his new single. He seemed real proud and excited. The single name was "Shampoo." |

Hi everybody, just got home and then internet was out so I'm just now getting to post. Thanks everyone for the birthday greetings and thanks to whoever posted that U2 article link for me. :D
I read from my phone during the day but don't usually try to post then so I saw the link and read the article but don't remember now who posted it.
