Don't know how to reply to a specific person, but you'll see this anyway. Thanks everyone for the warm welcome! I've become an Adam fan quite accidentaly. Let's say around six months ago I saw WWFM on VH1( or MTV), I liked it, but nothing more than that. To this day I can't remember what prompted me to Google him and I found his AI stuff. Man!!! I was ...shocked,delighted,awestruck...all at the same time! I kept listening to it over and over again, simply adoring every tone of his voice, every word that came out of his mouth, every expression on his face, the way he moved his body... everything about him appealed to me. I haven't felt that for anyone in a looong time. That was followed by months of watching and downloading every single GNT, FYE or interview video which gave me such pleasure that nobody in my surroundings could stand me anymore. I was criticised by my husband ( he got used to it eventually, still a little jealous,I think) ,my children (who started feeling seriously unloved), my parents, and my best friend who's ,I'm proud to say, recently caved under my ministrations and is on the best way to become a Glambert herself.
One of the good moments was joining Twitter, where I luckily found a bunch of Adam addicts. It felt so good, knowing that I'm not crazy, that there are other people who loved him as well.
Need I say how scarce are Adam fans in my country. I'm not even trying to find them. Twitter and internet in general help me feel like a citizen of the world.
I've stopped cleaning the house/picking up after kids/watching TV/socialising(almost) because of him:))) To describe my feelings more elaborately would require much more space and time.
Finally, I have to say that I'm so sorry I haven't been there from the very beginning. I can't imagine how it's been for the fans who've been there from the get-go. Because waiting for Trespassing is killing me! Need to stop now, before I scare someone off. I'm not crazy, I just love him so much and it's not like some passing fancy, I have very specific and concrete reasons for loving him. But some other time about that:)))
I LOVE stories like this because I think most of us hear went through a similar epiphany when we first heard Adam - or at least heard the song that turned our lives upside down. I thought Adam was all sorts of adorable and talented from the fist time I saw in on TV, but Ring Of Fire on AI sent me "Down the Rabbit Home" as we say and I've never come back pout. - for me it was on AI. It's make you part of a discerning group who knows a once in a lifetime talent when we hear it.
Very cool to have a fan from Serbia. Ill be in Croatia this summer but don't think I'll make it to Serbia.
BTW, if you're on Twitter, I'm there with other Atopians probably more than on the board because it takes less time. Twitter name is @melisendepf . A lot of us have PF behind our names because this board was originally called Planet Fierce. Like: @noangelpf; @shadowpf; aloha; @didilynnpf; anthrogeekPF among others.
