WOW  I loooooove Cuckoo! LOVE IT LOVE IT! I love chokehold! Tresspassing is awesome! THE NEW ALBUM IS AWESOME! It's got THE COOLest groove. So excited. I'm so happy! I can't tell you how happy it made to to watch Adam performing Cuckoo! I have to admit something--there was a time where I was a teeny bit worried about Album 2, not from any perspective other than my own selfish one. But in the Before Pharrel era (I think of everything as Before Pharrel and After Pharrel, lol), when all the talk was of real, understated, organic, honest Adam, I must admit to little moments of mourning for the ridiculous campy Adam. *smacks myself* I was a FOOL. I shoulda known betta. (Hell, Cuckoo probably even came from the BP era. : We all know Adam can emote the heck out of songs like Outlaws of Love and BTIKM. And it is wonderful to watch him do it, it really is. But I love me some hammy-Adam, I TOTES LOVE HAMMY ADAM, and to watch him ham it up there on stage with Cuckoo just made me soo soo happy. You know that moment (of course you do) where Adam is so completely ridic that he cracks himself up and breaks out of the pose to give us all a goofy grin? Well, that moment is alive and well in the Trespassing era. HOORAY! Cuckoo is so damn fun. It's a shitty recording (although MAJA props to the recorders  ) and not a single person in the room had heard the song before (other than the band) and yet even that first snippet before bed last night had a sing-along quality to it, and today's vids, for me, are quite spectacularly accessible and fun. This song includes you in it's party. I love a good song that includes you in its party (hell, I even love a crap song that includes you in its party, and this ain't a crap song in the least.) I do hope it's the next single. I'm sure the Bruno Mars song will sound terrific, but this is something I want for Adam--His own song, that speaks so much of him (though I'm sure he'll OWN the Bruno song), and that invites us all into his party. I see this song having the kind of success that Party in the USA and Party Rock Anthem have (to compare it to two songs I like far less). People love music that wants them to be happy. And all I've heard is a shitty-ass recording. Imagine what the album version sounds like!!  ps--what kind of balls does it take to play a bunch of unfamiliar songs to a room of mostly newbies and to sell it the way Adam is selling it?--Boy was WORKING WERKING HARD out there! And he blew that room away. Respect. EXACTLY MY THOUGHTS! EVERY WORD OF IT! Cuckoo is AWESOME! A.W.S.O.M.E.!!!! Every party and dance floor will want to have it! like I said before - LOVE ALL THREE! The album will be HUGE! |

I'd like to add one more thing.
Remember when BTIKM was released and we all reacted and felt differently about the song? And then it was concluded that it wasn't ripping off the charts, as expected since it wasn't hittish enough, among other things?
If this radio promo showed anything, it's that BTIKM is a beautiful song, firstly, and secondly, what a true artist Adam is, and of an amazing integrity.
Yes, he wants to top the charts. But you won't catch him dead singing 'moves like jagger' or 'umbrella-ella-ella' type of shit.
If Adele sang BTIKM , it would rip the charts.
There's something off-putting to some people seeing a guy being so emotional and wearing his heart upon his sleeve, I think. I don't know what the real reason is, but as Adam said, there's something polarizing about him. The needle of his compass can show either North or South.
But to me, as W.H. Auden would say:
" He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last forever, I was wrong."
except that I reserve the right to change it a bit, the 'wrong' is "right" in my world:)))

Cuckoo is fucking amazing. It's Adam in song-form - funky and fierce and adorkable. I'll put money on them going with the Bruno Mars song next but this will be a hit whenever they get around to releasing it as a single - hoping it's sooner rather than later. Yeah - I wanna hear Adam singing NCOE before I decide which I like best or what I think will work best for the next single. It has to sound great for radio. If it's the Bruno song - I think that's great cause when Adam sings it, it WILL be an Adam song. Can't decide on a song just because he wrote it or he is sooooo hot singing it on stage. heh. They will choose the next one with the most chance for big success - Grammy? :D Then maybe even a third - or fourth single off Trespassing! 8-) |

YES!! There's something about it that is familiar yet new at the same time!! I really really like it... even with the ghastly sound! I can really see Adam changing this song up during live performances... drawing it out... making it almost more bluesy... Now I'M DYING TO HEAR SHADY!!! It was driving me crazy what part of the beat in the verses was reminding me. I knew it was a song I had heard of as I found myself wanting to sing different lyrics. I think I finally figured it out, which is what it remind me of "Light my Fire" by the The Doors. |
