ETA: AND NCOE IS HEADED TO PASS BTIKM IN SALES RAPIDLY IF IT CONTINUES TO BUILD THE WAY IT IS. This is the best of all the news. It is easiest to kick off a new album with a song on the radio and selling on iTunes. It is too high for the purchases to just be from the "core OTT buy everything Adam" fans. (Not like I know any of those types.  ) I wish for this of course, but I don't see that NCOE is doing as well YET as BTIKM in the initial itunes charts, possibly because of the focus on album pre-ordering/free download?If anyone wants to gift or recieve a gift of NCOE as a download there is a gifting post for the single at hooplamagnet: hooplamagnet.livejournal.com/127168.htmlExcept the free download is of BTIKM, not NCOE.. |

If there was one concern I had about Adam it was that because he comes from his strength so much, i wasnt sure there would be a song in there that would be truly vulnerable.
But of course he's smashed by concern with Underneath.
I havent heard a song that is that raw and deep before.

I had forgotten that underneath was almost the title of the album because Adam connected to the song so much. See here in this Byron Cooke interview youtu.be/VmPlVFLMrV8Does anyone have the link to the youtube that loops underneath from the beginning? oh wow, thanks for that. I remember viewing that when it first came out but not having a clue how Underneath would affect me, it didn't mean as much as it does now. Thanks for resurrecting it.  |

I just checked out my "touchstone" viseral-reaction vid for the first time in 2012. Yes, it still makes the very top of my head tingle...and draws a whimper from me. Emote away, bb...I love everything before this moment and since. (And a special awww for his turned up toes!) TAKE THE TINGLE TEST! (1:09-1:17 are particularly orgasmic for me, don't really get it, but love it nonetheless...) OMG. I've re-listened about 8 times now and it happens EVERY TIME whether I'm watching him or just listening. How can a voice or a certain note elicit an actual physical rush?? I need to go back and read about quarks and stuff. Or, just be grateful and enjoy it! Check out this video on ted.com on "Making sound visible through cymatics".. shows you how sound affects matter.. relating it to Adam.. how Adam's voice can profoundly affect us on the deepest level. www.ted.com/talks/lang/en/evan_grant_cymatics.html |

Wait. Its interesting how the two album titles were "Trespassing" and "Underneath". One is so bold and strong, and the other so so so vulnerable. And both are true about him.   8-) |

No, she is correct. NCOE is a free DL on i-Tunes when you pre-order the deluxe album. So, we have no idea how many people are doing that and NOT DLing NCOE as just a single. That's why comparing the BTIKM i-Tunes position from it's release and the NCOE position is pretty much a mute point. |

Didn't bother to d/l since I have so many, but that's what it says.. interesting that others got NCOE. ??? ETA I bought the fan edition of Trespassing which is the deluxe version. |

She is talking about i-Tunes. The free DL on AO is BTIKM. On i-tunes it is NCOE. But she was talking about the i-tunes positioning of NCOE and wished it was higher. |
