In the continuing analysis of the minutia of the BTIKM video, have we chewed on the chess knight symbol yet? Adam has a decorative one (sometimes bookend) on his shelf - and it gets quite a bit of air time. Then when light Adam pushes the game board forward - he's not offering to start a game - it's a game already in progress (though it seems like light Adam has gotten more moves lol) and apparently while LA is deploying his pawns, Dark Adam has played his knight - the wily knight. And DA's large decorative knight is white isn't it? Purely aesthetic decision or recognition of LA as respective shadow self or acknowledgement of presence of dark/light in both 'rooms'. (No, I don't think it's that deep but I enjoy the guessing game.) This video is like the book 'Animalia' both lovely and providing hrs of entertainment searching for things. They made the large white knight on DA's side very prominent at the beginning of the MV. Amongst all of the darker, sharper imagery on DA's side, why the white knight? My take on that is that it forshadows DA being the savior... the 'white knight' if you will....  Good pt. I wondered that too - when Adam kicks in the glass he seems to me a rather classic anti-hero - the troubled hero who often wreaks havoc but can also channel that energy/aggression to save or protect others. |

What's the white pendant on DA's neck? Looks like an upside-down knight, but I'm not sure, can't see it clearly. |

I KNOW WE HAVE SOME SWEDISH SPEAKERS AT ATOP--WISH SOMEONE WHO SPEAKS THE LANGUAGE AND IS ON TWITTER COULD TRANSLATE SOME OF THE TWEETS IN @megamixpol FEED--LOTS ARE ABOUT ADAM, AND LOOK LIKE THEY'RE EXCITED, IF !!! IS ANY INDICATION, BUT I CAN'T READ THEM! ;D Like these: LundqvistEmelie Emelie Lundqvist @mixmegapol försöker ta in att jag faktiskt såg @adamlambert hos er nyss \o/ AlexanderMorner alexander morner @mixmegapol Önskade att ni skött er bättre så att fler kunnat se Adam Lambert. Först ingen 18årsgräns, sen är det en, sen släpper ni in iaf? I may have missed some fine points in these (quick translation), but here's the gist of these: Emilie says:"I'm trying to take it in that I really saw Adam Lambert with you just now" Alexander:"Hoped that you did this better so that more people could have seen Adam Lambert. First no 18 year old age limit, then there is one, and the you let them enter in anyway?" (This is criticism towards Mixmegapol) I'll go and check the feed to see how the tone is in general. Will be back... ETA: Actually very few tweets in Swedish; everything was positive. |

Oh, btw, my last post was in no way a criticism of anything you said, noreaster. I actually agree with most of what you said. That was me having a pet peeve, bug-up-my-ass moment. |
