I'm kind of curious about when Adam decided the original album shoot, with the shaved sides, was not the look he wanted and switched to Lee. I am guessing, that after he saw the EMA performance, he said something like, "Ooooooo, so that's how it looks from the side and back!!!!" ;D LOL..and YAY! for us. Me too curious about that. Maybe he thought after picking the title track, trespassing and that looks didn't go well with it. And he saw how people reacted to the pic on the single track, and decided to go with Lee's direction.

IMHO,Adam is the Jackie Robinson of the music industry at this point. As Adam said there aren't many gay folks in music right now. He is alone ,during a huge push back against LGBT civil rights. Adam explained that movies and TV are a bit better now for gay performers,music not so much.He doesn't even have great support from his own team. His fans are his supporters and whether we want to admit it or not, when he said if it were't for us he wouldn't be making this second album. He meant it. He is telling us what is happening,are we listening? Is it too painful for us to see the up hill battle Adam has to be an artist in this country?I know ,I thought it would be easier to get Adam on air this time,but I believe it may even be harder. Look at the candidates running for president,listen to how Rick Santorum wants to reverse all gay rights,reverse all rights women have won, and take the vote away from the blacks.Our country is in a war of ideals. Adam sings of love for all ,trying to say I am you ,you are me,half the nation isn't buying it. Someday when there is actually equality in America ,I hope Adam receives all the recognition he deserves. He only wanted to be a singer,but he is 'Trespassing' and some may want to stop his music. This really resonates with me. I am Dutch, live in England now, but have also lived in New Orleans (and other countries too) and I find it incredible what is happening really all over the world. It almost feels as if there is a final push to go back to the old (ideas) before we as humanity can move forward and people like Adam are in a way there showing us what could be if we only let go. Interesting times to see the least. (whoops, did not get the quote thingy right first time, hope it works now ITA with you both. I think we're in a bit of a bubble and sometimes forget how tough it is out there for Adam doing what he's doing in a decidedly pre-gay industry. It's hard as hell to be first and the Jackie R analogy is a good one. I could easily become discouraged by all the hate but I look back on the last couple of years in the U.S. and we've actually made significant progress. And as you say, Dutchie, there is much resistance to social change. The tide is turning, and change is happening, and it scares the hell out of some people. So they fight even harder, like cornered animals. But I have hope, and I'm so proud to be a fan of such a brave person who isn't afraid to trespass into places where others haven't dared.

Hmmm, interesting...
From twitter: Brooksy @brooksyonair I talk on the radio..Starbucks kid. Kylie is the queen of pop..The West Wing is the best tv ever.. Interested in NLP..Radio all the way.Views expressed are mine
Brooksy @brooksyonair Amal Lambert fans.. I would exepct Adam to be in the UK to promote the next single (2nd) from what I've been told!. Thats all for now!
Michelle @baking4fun @brooksyonair Hi! Could you clarilfy your tweet about Adam? Is he promoting the single on the 2nd or promoting the 2nd singe? I'm confused Brooksy @brooksyonair @baking4fun Second single from what I'm being told.
JB @flyteness1 So let me get this right @brooksyonair said that when Adam is over here in Feb, he'll be promoting his 2nd single?. Cuckoo, Trespassing? Brooksy @brooksyonair @flyteness1 I was told it would be later than Feb and the second single is the one they are promoting! Know nothing else I'm afraid

I wonder if they decided to push the second - more uptempo - single in the UK market?
Of course, this is just one person, so grain of salt and all that. This is like 3rd hand info LOL

That was hilarious! Thanks for sharing. Funny how it seems that the book he is most known for is the one he likes the least. Kinda sad.
