Unfortunately I can't get into this site at work. So it is multiple acts? Okay, that takes away the desire. Not worth a few songs to me, even if I only live an hour away. Thanks!

On another topic, way late too respond, but in answer to your question from earlier, rabbitrabbit: I guess my thought is if someone doesn't want radio play to be part of the discussion, why worry about the single choice at all? Just talk about your personal favorite album songs and the ones you aren't as enamored with and forget about that whole side of it - it's not like core fans could (or even should many would argue) influence the choice anyway as aloha drolly pointed out. Singles are meant for radio, that is their sole purpose in life pretty much IMO -- though a cool video is a nice side benefit. Like juniemoon said, it's really two separate discussions, though both can be interesting. I guess the reason I care about single choice even though I don't care THAT much about radio play--the reason the single question is still relevant to the personal preference question--is because I care about which songs Adam is most identified by by the general public. I want non-fans to see something of the same stuff in him that I do. And right now (setting aside the obviously awesome Idol times), based just on his singles, they don't get to see all the incredible charm we get to see. Their picture of Adam is very different from my picture of Adam. I'll be very happy with NCOE as a single if that's what's chosen--I like the song--but what I'll mourn just a little is that NCOE doesn't exploit Adam's wicked sense of humor the way that Trespassing and particularly Cuckoo do. None of Adam's singles so far have. And if Cuckoo is the next single then THAT's what I'll celebrate--the idea of Adam being his wonderful wicked witty self on TV. NCOE will showcase his spectacular vocals, and that is an eternal thrill. But peeps already know he has pipes. I want non-fans to know about his cheekier charms, too. Does that makes sense? Still, not bitching and moaning, and def not wailing like a banshee, at least not yet! Bring it on Adam--I'll cheer whatever you have to offer! I hear you, I was nodding reading your post yesterday as this is in the back of my mind too. I guess it's figuring out the line between having an artistic identity to casual listeners that maybe doesn't show his full quirky creativity, and humorous spark right away, and not being heard at all? If the perfect artistic identity single doesn't get airplay does that help? If a tree falls in the forest but no one hears....etc. Luckily there is a lot of gray area and unknowns in the middle, hopefully not everything necessarily has to be resolved in the next single choice (I'm crossing my fingers for a third one), and we aren't the ones who have to make the choice, canvas the PDs and draw the line, because I sure would have a hard time. Eeeeee! the songs on the tracklist! and all of the ones we'd heard about and were hoping for got included! So curious about the others!!!!!! gimmmmeeee

Congrats to all that are going to the taping of the NNN Awards tonight!!!! So happy for you!! I have a little request if you don't mind. I know it will be different that what we see on TV on Monday, but if you could kind of let me know what part of the show Adam is in, like the 1st or 2nd half, or even 1st quarter, 2nd quarter, etc. I know it won't be exact or anything. And, if he closes the show it will be perfect!! (for me, anyways) I'm watching my Grandson that night and need to decide if I watch him here or at my sons house. Way easier to go there as all his *stuff* is there and more room. And, it's more convenient for me to go there as it adds about 30 min. to their driving time to come here. But, they won't get home until about 9:30 pm (central time), and I don't really want to leave to come home and miss Adam. It's a 15 min. drive to my house. And, I might just stay there and make them all watch...hehehe!! Who knows, might just make a fan outa my son at last. DIL likes Adam, but just pretty much knows only what I tell her. Son was impressed that he was going to sing with Queen at Sonisphere. He's just not interested in listening to him.....yet. Well, as usual, I have rambled on. :-[ The 4 from here that I know are going are: mys*&@^#r, susiefierce, 8toinfinity and Mayumi. So, if anyone could just try to get an idea on the timing, I'd sure appreciate it! TY!! And, have a wonderful time!!!! YAYYYYY!! oops...almost forgot..... YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO for the track listing. I went to bed just 15 tweets (yes, I counted...lol) before Adams tweet last night. Go figure!! Can't wait to hear this album!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just starting to catch up but I'm soooo happy to be able to celebrate the new track list with all of you!!! I can't wait to hear this album - is it May 15th yet!!!!
Its weird because the same time Adam was tweeting the new track list we got our electricity back. Our fire alarm went off breifly and my husband said "What was that - why is our fire alarm going off?" I said I think our electricity is back - but if I would have known I would have told him it was a notice that Adam's new Trespassing track list is out. LOL He may have thought I had gone COCKOO.
I'm so happy for all of you that are going tonight. Have a great time. And also happy for all of us - it looks like we may be getting a unplugged performance of Trespassing. I just love that song!!!
Mayumi I hope your son was safe this week.
