I'm just going to let this one go and voice my opinion here. Regarding Bruno Mars, if the song has Adam's voice only I would be thrill... but I don't want to hear Bruno's voice in Adam's album. It will be exactly like listening to We Are The Champion with Kris voice in it. Bruno's going to sounds sooo strain in Adam's range... sorry Bruno's fans.. but really do not want to hear strain voice in Trespassing. I maybe a minority in this but I just want to voice my opinion. ;D I am so with you on this. The strain in Bruno's voice that many people like makes me cringe. But, really, who could sing with Adam and not suffer from the comparison? I want a collaboration where Adam is stretched and challenged, not dumbed down. Adam, probably from years of singing in ensembles, just blends his voice with others so as not to disrupt the unity of the group sound. Don't. want. that. Collaborate with producers, musicians, song writers, designers.. that's all cool. Not with vocalists. Or at least not with the vocalists in pop music that I have heard. A vocal collab doesn't have to be two people singing at the same time, though. I think collabs with very different voices are awesome, and it's not a contest of vocal prowess but rather a study in contrasts and a musical conversation. Katy Perry/Kanye on E.T. Eminem/Rihanna on Love the Way You Lie. Natalia Kills/will.i.am on Free. Just off the top of my playlist, lol. When I see Adam's happy/hopeful face and his crossed fingers, I can't help but want this for him, whatever it is. It's gonna be one song out of 12-14. Plenty of other songs where it's all Adam all the time. jmho ymmv

I hope that whomever, or whatever, the collabs are that Adam doesn't have to dumb down the vocals. AND to get ready for the Music Video coming out a look at the wonderful Austria BTIKM performance (did I say I am down the Austria rabbit hole right now, LOL)

Love this video How did they do this ??? George Michael with Mary J Blige ~ Would love to see Adam do something like this with the artist of his choice! We'd have so many Adams to look at. LOL I'd LOVE to see Adam do something like this, where they actually start out with some 30 seconds of full on George Michael singing, where you can actually absorb what he looks like, and what emotion he is expressing ... and then they go on to a more complex scene, but give you enough time to figure it out before moving on again ... but alas I think Adam's vid is going to be like all his others (and nearly everything else out there today) ... the 39 second BTIKM snippet had 37 scene changes, if I counted correctly ... that's just about 1 second to focus and then it's gone ... my eyes have a hard time with that ... 8-(

This is not some choral group. This isn't Broadway or Opera. This is Pop music! Collabs in Pop music are typically two artists taking turns singing different parts of the song. Adam will not have to "blend" or "dumb down" his voice for anyone! He will do what he does best and the other artist will do what they do best. That is why the most successful collabs are singers that don't have the same vocal stylings and usually they are from a completely different pop category. Why do some always think a collaboration is some type of vocal competition? It is not- it is a COLLABORATION of two people with completely different vocal stylings.

I hope Adam gets his collaboration wish to sing with the mystery singer he is crossing his fingers over!

Thanks tigerlily-I have the utmost confidence that if this collab is what Adam wants, it will be incredible. And Bruno has millions of fans who love his voice. I like it too.

Why do some always think a collaboration is some type of vocal competition? It is not- it is a COLLABORATION of two people with completely different vocal stylings. I see your point. Still. do. not. want. This is just me. I find Adam's voice so beautiful, so interesting, so effective, so perfect, that trading lines or trading verses, for me, is the sound equivalent of taking a bite of chocolate mint ice cream --- yummmmm-- then taking a bite of brussel sprouts --- ewww. I prefer just to have the bowl of ice cream and let someone else have my brussel sprouts. Now, if Adam were to collaborate with a singer whose voice I found equally compelling and interesting, it would be more like, chocolate mint ice cream, yummm, crunchy waffle cone, yum. Can happily take tastes of each, and even combine them. Problem is, I cannot think of a pop singer out there whose voice would be as satisfying and complimentary. Like I said, just me. YMMV.
