I pre-ordered too off his fan club site. There was no mention of the deluxe version. Will I get to upgrade? I definately want the deluxe version! '' cheriemelissa, wal posted this previously.... www.adamofficial.com/us/news/adams-new-album-gets-release-dateADAM'S NEW ALBUM GETS A RELEASE DATE! Time to mark those calendars, Adam fans. Trespassing, the follow-up to Adam's classic debut album For Your Entertainment, is coming out on May 15th, so go ahead and start counting down now! If you haven't yet, pre-order Trespassing now from Adam's Official Store and you'll get an instant download of "Better Than I Know Myself", AND you'll be able to upgrade to a deluxe package once it becomes available.but what if you already have ordered???? I ordered like a while ago! so do I order AGAIN? or what |

Hey guys
Adam's a great believer in Astrology as we know. I just read
Venus goes retrograde on 15 May
This could be a very inauspicious time to launch - if you think this stuff does have an effect.
At the least, I think he should know about that.

OH OH they just figured this out!!! It said today I cannot vote from this region!!! I have been doing it each day thus far. Well folks it is all up to those of you who are voting. Adam is behind now. noangel Sunday essay is bang on.. ..life is a series of checks and balances...we make decisions everyday that we hope lead to the feelings we want to have. We either stick our oar in and won't move or we compromise or we even change our minds and are happy to do so after listening to altenatives. Never BLACK and WHITE...not our place to JUDGE. Adam is doing the best he can do at the time, for the decisions in his control. |

NoAngel when you post on Sundays I most often cheer in the background. Out of lurking on this one as it goes to the heart of it for me. We all want Adam to have the level of success that he wants.
The thing is, life is all about compromise, for all of us says it all for me...
Back to page 1 to catch up on voting ;D
Thank you!

This is in reply to NoAngel on the Art of Compromise. There is a very interesting (and long) article in the Mar 26 edition of The New Yorker magazine which can be found on their website <www.newyorker.com >. The article is entitled "Stargate and Ester Dean...Making Music Hits" and goes in depth into the hit-making machine for pop music today citing Rihanna as a prime example.
Adam is savvy and knows what's involved, and is working very hard to make his presence in pop music happen - however, without compromising his basic integrity. He has a voice like no other and a strong personality making him stand out no matter what. I also agree with Melliemom that Adam will continue to evolve and we will continue to see more and different aspects of his talent and personality beyond the Trespassing album. Checking back on his pre-Idol years we can see the depth of his talent even in those earlier years.
Anyway, while the New Yorker magazine article is not directly related to Adam, it's a good read about the status of the pop music industry today.

NoAngel, I always love reading your perspectives and this one was really interesting as well. I'm not sure that I think in terms of compromise where Adam is concerned or in life in general. I see things more from the point of view of integrity or lack of integrity around principles or beliefs that are core to us. That define us. The rest is more surface stuff. So, for example, Adam being less glitter and glamtastic doesn't affect anything fundamental at all. I could never see this in terms of compromising anything regarding a more toned down version of himself being appropriate for mainstream pop. At a personal level, Adam has displayed breathtaking integrity. I found his comments recently that using same-sex images in his videos to prove a point isn't worth the cost very interesting. And I don't see it as a compromise either, because his integrity remains unaffected by continuing to be honest about who he is. In his music, his integrity is centred around making music that has meaning to him, with themes that resonate to "his community" but also universally, that he has invested himself in, and that he feels he can give 100% to when he is performing it. The genre to me isn't what it about. If he made sloppy music, half-heartedly, with simply $$$$ in his sight, no matter what the genre, then that would truly be a "compromise". So at one level, I don't think he's really having to make hard choices because those choices he is making aren't centred around paying any price around his fundamental integrity. On another topic, I feel so spoilt by these promo "jewels" that we've been getting every day. I was watching the latest cuckoo from the previous page and strikes me every time is how truly generous Adam is with his voice. He gives more than I've ever seen from any other performer at these types of events. That is partly why he fascinates me so much because to me that is real love and respect for an audience. Read this after I posted. I appreciate the time, energy and thougthfulness of your post. It really resonated with me!! Loved it. now back to page 3 |

Dallas Mix 102.9 played BTIKM 5 times yesterday and WWFM 3 times. Each song has already been played this morning. This makes me feel that requesting is helping.  |
