Best of 2011: Music, Movies and Books
12.28.11 by Q3

The topic for today is music -- plus whatever news comes our way.

Now, I love numbers -- but let's leave that for the Numbers thread.

So as we come to the end of 2011, let's pick the best music, moves and books.

What is the best single released in 2011?
What is the best album released in 2011?
What is the best movie released in 2011?
What is the best new book released in 2011? (can be paper or e-book)

I'll take the best nominations and create the official Adamtopia "Best of 2011" ballot.

[I am pretty sure I know the best single released in 2011 --

Bonus question: What other "Best of" categories should we include on the ballot?

Another TMZ Report about Adam and Sauli
Broadcast 12.27.11

Caution: Harvey makes a really unfunny Adam = OJ joke, the mock Finland, and IMO watching it will not improve your life. But it is TMZ and this is the kind of totally OTT celebrity “comedy” bits they specialize in. In other words, no one takes TMZ seriously and that is just what they want.

OK sorry bout yesterday's TMZ tirade. It is definitely best for me to ignore TMZ along with all the other negative stuff and focus on the positive and the music. Force field officially up. Thanks for bearing with me.

Will have to think about best of 2011 stuff!
