HAPPY BIRTHDAY SusieFierce and shewolf!!I'm lovin' the China videos/pics. He's just so damn CUTE!! ...and to everyone who's wished me luck and best wishes for my naturalization interview and test...thank you so much, really appreciate it. It's been a long and tedious process....getting our green cards was particularly heinous, haha!. This step isn't as complicated, just drawn out and a tad stressful. anyhoo....thanks again guys, your support means a lot. Back to Adam - I wonder what he'll sing tonight? Old stuff, new stuff?

I haven't posted in a while, because I started ending up w/ serious headaches after having skimmed&scanned through all the pages of the blog.
There are all sorts of personality "types" here, and I particularly enjoy picking up the characteristics of certain fans through their posts. I don't like impersonal, bland posts. I like it when I can recognize who posted something w/out looking at the name:) Some of you I can tell "blindfolded" ;D ;D ;D
Finally, it pleases me that some of the guys posting here are very educated, judging by what they say and how they say it. So it's not like a bunch of horny, carefree teenagers cutting their veins over an equally horny and carefree ( underaged) celebrity. Idk, somehow it feels legit.
Better Than I Know Myself. I loved it on the first hearing. Actually, I loved the snippet to begin with, and not the soaring, high-notes start, but the bit after it, when he sings "All along, I tried to pretend it didn't matter" because his voice there sounds so powerful, so raw that it gives me chills and goosebumps and all other kinds of skin manifestations. Combined w/ the heavy beat, punching through my ear drums each time w/ such force that I thought I would develop hearing disability if I didn't turn the volume down ( and I'd never dare commit such a blasphemy) , I was so thrilled w/ the song, so happy that I LOVED it, it felt like a bona fide RELIEF:)
And that was just the snippet. The full version starts, and the first 10 seconds leave my mouth dropped to the floor! It's a synthy sound all right, but it's the sound of the church organs and I knew he meant serious business, and I wanted to know what he was so serious about. Imo, it's the lyrics. They are hauntingly beautiful and very direct in their simplicity. I love the angsty undertones, and the promise of a happy end, and the fact that this is a longer relationship he's singing about, they already went through thick & thin. I just love relationship Adam, I believe him when he sings the words, he's been there, done that, like most of us, so we can corelate. There's nothing more satisfying than corelating w/ Adam.
The beat/voice combination repeats in the song, w/ the same effect. It blazes through me, electrifying the nerve endings in a very pleasing fashion. It leaves me excited, thrilled and buzzed.
The high notes of the refrain are very appealing to me, although I can't singalong, and I keep thinking how the heck he's going to sing that live. They remind me of Enya, or the Cranberries lead singer, very resonant and imposing. NOT many people can do that.
Can't talk much about the bridge, I don't know anything about that except that Claude Kelly rewrote it to suit Adam's voice better. And that I like it.
Better Than I Know Myself is a radio candy. It should be a # 1 smash hit. But much more importantly, it's a good song, the one you won't forget after a few months when a new tide of track-packed/produced/ready to go hits invades the radio waves. Like all Adam's music, it's here for us to muse over it, revisit it, change our feelings/opinions about it over and over again.
It's also an intriguing interlude to Trespassing, and it promises that even greater stuff will wait for us on that album.
Imo. Js.

I want a pop friendly song for Adam. And this is going to do it. My hope was for an album that was more in line with marketable ...help Adam be successful. Support through thick or thin.
My concern was the opposite of my love for songs like TSMGO. I actually thought BTIKM was a bit too much like "rock" with the higher pitched parts. With all these comments and squeeing it seems my anxiousness was unfounded. Have to warm up more...keep playing it....
At first listen of the last album IIHY stood out for me....and VOODOO...I loved. Most others were "fine" and I "heated up" to them, after a zillion plays. lol So we all have "likes" that are varied, and I can hardly wait for the album and LIVE performances/concerts to rev up. (X Factor- please)
One way or another he captures me.
EDIT: no harm And just skim by my bland short post
