Random thought, Adam has the bendiest/curviest thumbs I ever saw. I noticed it first when he finished his "chair interview" on Idol and made it into the Top 36. He gives the thumbs-up and I kind of chuckle every time I see that shot. This shot reminded me of that. Susie I read palms for fun and a thumb like that suggests a person who has a very flexible side (they are not rigid). So i love his thumbs! LOL I wish I would have saved a Sauli gif I saw. The way he cracks, twirls, and moves his thumbs is unbelieavable! Maybe a Finn here knows what I 'm talking about and has saved it. |

Just my take. In North America, there is not that much variety on Top 40 radio right now -- Pop and Dance Pop with some Urban/R&B tracks. Occasionally, a country track crosses over but these tracks are usually just pop tracks from Nashville. Here are the current US Top 10 on Pop/CHR radio: 1 KELLY CLARKSON Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You) Pop2 THE WANTED Glad You Came Dance-pop3 DAVID GUETTA Turn Me On f/Nicki Minaj House/dance-pop4 GYM CLASS HEROES Ass Back Home f/Neon Hitch Pop/alt Hip Hop5 FUN. We Are Young f/Janelle Monae Pop6 KATY PERRY Part Of Me Dance-pop7 ADELE Set Fire To The Rain Pop8 DRAKE Take Care Alt Dance/R&B9 JESSIE J Domino Dance-pop10 CALVIN HARRIS Feel So Close House/dance-popOf the four possible singles, I think Cuckoo fits in best. NCOE is also a great choice. Adam gets airplay on HAC and Pop stations -- his biggest success has been in Adult Pop -- mainstream Top 40 and HAC.Seems unlikely Adam is going to have an R&B/Urban cross-over hit with Trespassing. And if they want to go HAC+Pop, there are just better choices. I can't see an easy radio path for Trespassing. And I really can't see RCA taking any chances when they have less risky choices. --- Regarding getting a third single -- there are no simple rules like Adam needs to have single #2 go to #5 on HAC. --- No matter what is released as the next single, Cuckoo is going to get club play and will sell -- I JUST KNOW IT. I think it has the potential to score on the Dance charts and the Pop charts. And if it is not released as single #2 in North America, there is a good chance it is #3 here. Regarding Trespassing, I think most people who love Trespassing will be purchasing the album. But all just my opinion. Setting all that aside -- it is a fact  that all 4 tracks are great!! So I am really happy any way they do it -- as long as he gets tons of airplay! |

Adam isn't exactly getting a week off after a grueling March, is he? More promo Monday, and I guess he'll have to schedule some rehearsal time for the NNN performance. Who knows what else is on the schedule?!? :  Nope, he has a pretty crazy week. The L.A. radio performance is on Monday at noon that NO ONE any of us knows has passes for though we jumped through multiple hoops trying.  Actually, I now have heard about a friend of a friend who won, but that's it. So bizarre though, after posting about that dream I had where I was at an M&G and we were sitting on the floor ... this is the venue (never saw a pic before today) (Will have to embed...)  content.clearchannel.com/cc-common/gallery/thumb.php?src=/export/home/cc-common/mlib/3889/03/3889_13309904653.JPG&wmax=600&hmax=450&quality=80Looks like they may have room for full band. He also has LA Weekly interview on Monday. He might be doing other L.A. press as well. I imagine full band will be rehearsing Tuesday and Wednesday and they'll be dress rehearsals and sound checks for NNN starting early Thursday, so no, it would not appear he has any rest in the near future. Today and tomorrow are about it, I imagine.  ETA: That's really interesting, anjalee. Mine aren't curvy at all and I'm quite flexible. I'm one of the weird people who doesn't resist change, I usually love it. |

No typo. Boy George's tweet said, "How's it going, kid?" And Adam replied, "Going great!" Oh  I'm sorry but my alibi is that I'm not a native speaker :-/ No apology necessary!  He could easily have said "Doing great" too, but since Boy George used the colloquial phrase, "How's it going?" it made sense for Adam to respond in kind. I thought I remembered that you were one of our non-native speakers but didn't want to make the assumption if I wasn't remembering correctly. Those of us who don't speak a second language are put to shame by those of you who communicate so well in a language that isn't your native tongue! |

It can, however, also mean someone who over accommodates - boundary issues at times. Depends a lot on the length of the thumb and some other factors. In a short thumb, it is more of a problem. I need to study more pictures and figure that one out. |

youtu.be/fMFAiCuxVrsOkay, who would not die to have this exact attitude, enthusiasm, and performance on A I come May? Would we get the same neutral response from STyler as last time? If so, screw him!
