Haven't commented on the snippets, except for Underneath which is so good and real, it kind of physically hurts to listen to it. In short I have really nothing more to add than has not already been said, but if the album is not up for some major industry awards like Album of the Year, then there is no justice in the world what so ever! It is that amazing to me  Shady =   |

The fact we're getting vinyl is such a great thing! It's analog vs digital! Analog is best - digital samples analog at different bit rates & that determines the sound quality!! HELP explaining Kanadie! Please! |

Oh good, Cassie, you're still here, I've got a question for you, if you don't mind. Do you think Adam can perform "Underneath' live? 'cause he said some songs were just too hard to do live, like CLYG which I absolutely love! thx! I can't stop listening to "Underneath", it's just so painfully beautiful! The challenge to Underneath is its emotional intensity and vulnerability. It is not rangy for Adam, it doesn't have any exceptional demands for breath or phrasing. It is very exposed because the vocal is so up front without lots of backing support, but, Adam has dealt with that in all his recent radio appearances with just an acoustic guitar backing. But, the real exposure is emotional. In contrast, CLYG has stratospheric high notes with lyrics required to be articulated, not just "AHHHH" or "ooooo". IMO, if Adam can handle the emotional rawness, he can sing this live. |

Like everyone, I am overwhelmed with the greatness of the new songs. I have the individual downloads of the longer snippets, but was wondering if anyone knows of a Soundcloud of all of them in order. I like the Scorpios4Music Soundcloud that runs 16:58 but these are the original shorter snippets of the songs. Does one exist of the longer versions all together? Thanks in advance |

IMO, one of the most exquisite qualities in Adam is his sense of vulnerability and raw emotions, which just naturally oozes out of him when he sings. Good night! |

"Now she puts the shot glass down...
She asks for another round....
She wants to hit the clouds....
Honey...are you up there now?"
Work bitch....You don't gotta stress this...
God I'm feeling restless...show em' how it's done.....All right!...
Get down!
No I ain't broken but I need a fix......
Turn it up! Turn it up! Turn it up! Turn it WAY UP!!
Don't stop the beat. Come on...turn me ..turn me on..
because I'm feeling so SHADY lately!!
(Taking off headphones while shaking my ass as I leave my computer and say...Good night!) ;D

Adam just said he wrote on 12 of the 15 tracks, but we know that he did not write on BTIKM, NCOE, Naked Love or Underneath. Are his math skills as bad as his spelling, or was there a co-write we missed? Also don't see much love for Pop that Lock, which I adore. Remember way back when we when we trying to guess the name of the album and Unlocked kept coming up? (that was around the time he got the skeleton key tattoo.) Wonder if that's when that one was written. My favorite lyric of all the songs so far is from Kickin In: "The sweetest seeds make the best trees!" Love that one! I think that Adam may be right about co-writing 12 tracks --- there is at least one more track for the UK that we do not know yet. And I adore Pop That Lock. But honestly -- if you set aside BTIKM which is just OK, I love the whole album. Chokehold and Broken English and Shady are high on my list. And we still have Nirvana!!!! |

I just ordered the deluxe TP CD with DVD and got a free download of BTIKM. I know we are all celebrating this phenomenal CD's snippets, but I sat back and listened. BTIKM still sends shivers up my spine and I wish it hadn't been swept under the rug. BTIKM will always be on my playlist..Adam's vocals are impeccable. And I love the video, wanna give it a big hug too. This whole CD is stellar! (including my buddy, BTIKM..  ) I'm thinking about ordering that one too... So does anyone know how long it will take before they send it to me?? I saw some talk about september?? ??? ??? |

If the bonus tracks for FYE got released in UK only ( I'm not sure if this is correct?), and this time bonus tracks can be ordered everywhere as a part of deluxe, I wonder what songs, if any, will be included in UK edition of Trespassing? Answering part of your question. FYE with bonus tracks and a different cover than the one that was released in the US, was not only for the UK. It was for Europe in general (I bought mine in Greece) but also for Japan (I bought a Glam box from Japan with the bonus tracks) |
