Lol. Yep there could have been better praise for Adam but I'll always take the rock star cred and recognition for him with the men over putting him in a group with the divas who mostly rule pop and pop/dance. Selena, Camila, Madonna, Katy, Jlo, Taylor, Gaga, Ariana, Beyonce, Janet. They top the pop charts, now or at one time, but some of them lack any real vocal talent. But they dance and have dancers and put on big shows. But I doubt many of them could hold an audience with sheer vocal talent, charisma and stage presence. And most, after they enter their thirties, have to make room for the younger divas, at least on radio and the pop charts. I'm a rock fan at heart and I'd love to see Adam do more rock-oriented sounds. Not holding my breath, though. I hope he keep himself flexible and open to other projects, too, like the animation voice things he's been doing (which he gets great praise for, BTW). And as you said, lurleene, even very successful singers always have the newer, younger versions nipping at their heels. Adam is a niche artist. A very successful one, with a loyal fanbase, but still a niche. I love how the UK and Australia, etc. have embraced him 100% and give him the much-deserved royal treatment. I would love to see him get to do another US solo tour, but he still has new music to put out. I hope it's strong and gets some attention. Adam once said, "There's room for everybody." True, but it depends on what level you're on. I remember once when someone said in an interview with Clay Aiken that Adam was a successful artist. Clay said oh he is only a "niche artist" and not mainstream. Sounded like pissy sour grapes to me, lol. I think Adam is mainstream and recognized worldwide even without massive radio play. He has a very diverse career. I think he excels with rock, pop-rock and ballads (my favorites) but he loves pop and dance/pop so I expect to see more in that direction too. But he is still often referred to as a rockstar in the press so sounds good to me. And they are not hung up on age and the divas. HA. |

So, Adam is one of the special guests at Live At The Greek? Fantastic! Some pretty big names there on the list! Wonder what Adam part is like?
lurleene. you always make very good points about Adam's career. You and I agree on just about everything. And you remind me about things I have either forgotten or never knew, like that Clay Aiden comment. Whether he's called a niche artist or not, My hope for him is that his new music gets some sort of label promotion and actually gets heard beyond us faithful fans. He has had such great success in so many ways. His own music deserves to be heard and appreciated. It's as good as anybody's out there.

Did anyone catch an Adam song at the beginning of tonight's episode of Ghosts on CBS? I was in the other room and it only registered at the end. Was before show intro so like in the setup section. Not sure it was Adam either, my ears just perked up.

Wow! Glitterini is sure getting great praise in Fraggle Rock! What a perfect role for Adam, and he is delivering it perfectly. Can't wait to see Adam's performance at the Greek!
