Looks like he had a fantastic crowd. Comparing pics and google street shots he filled up two big streets about as far back as you could see and sounded like the sound was good even in the back. It appears there were other goings on just blocks away so nothing keeping people out in the cold other than fireworks on the river and Adam fireworks on the stage. I hope the event folks a glambert talked to earlier were duly in awe.

I. I prefer “normal” days to holidays because there’s so much pressure or expectations for holidays to be all super full of love, etc. that anything short of that can feel disappointing. I have a hard time believing Adam didn’t choose that song at least in part because of relating to its bittersweetness,
II. Listening to tonight’s “Stranger You Are” clip makes me feel that that is such a strong song for Adam - I can’t help but think of Jim Morrison’s “When you’re straaange ...” both bold outsider anthems.
III. I loved both his winter-coat looks!
IV. Final thought - It is beautiful to see those pics of fans with Adam.

The multiple tv appearances and the fans in concert seem to be really enjoying him and he is enjoying the response. And he looks great. So thrilled for him.

Good for you that you find "nothing sad" about the song. My reaction was different, and I don't seem to be the only one after reading through comments on twitter and IG. As we discussed here a while ago, different people have different emotional reactions based on their perceptions. I think it is okay for a Christmas song to feel sentimental. For me, "Please Come Home For Christmas" is heart heavy and HOT at the same time. Bluesy and raw sure works well for Adam. What?? Some people find the original version very sad (so do I). I like Adam's better because I don't find his sad. I find his version bluesy but more sexy. And I was only agreeing with those two who found his version sexy too. Like everything we relate to things differently. I just know it is fantastic and I love it. He/Spotify made a great choice. Like most ballads, he killed it and that makes me very happy. Agreed on that

Was Cam performing with Adam tonight? I didn't see her or her keys onstage. I know she has been sick. Definitely heard keys on CTY, but assume that was a backing track? Didn't hear keys on other songs.
