Going through the video for the screen captures, I was struck by two things. 1st, in the early parts, his expressions reminded me of Elvis.
2nd, in the later parts of his performance there is a grin trying to burst out in every frame.

Some of us in the fandom are overtly critical of Adam when it comes to performances. Finished skimming the 87 page thread of yesterday and I guess we've become spoiled by the high quality performances that we usually get; so much so that any alteration that we don't perceive as "flawless" we downgrade. I have to say that I'm one of the said critical fans. After listening to countless GN AM's the raspiness of his voice just threw me. I found myself in a state of cognitive dissonance. As a BSC fan I "suppose" I like it and yet... Anyways I just wanted to express my views before going off to bed. Wish the people affected by the earthquake/tsunami well.

I know you're offline, now, but I will say that the 1st few seconds of the performance startled me. I'm no expert, so I can't really explain what I was hearing. However, if it was a mistake, he quickly corrected it and overall, it was good.

Aaaaa but to me it was MEANT TO BE RASPY. IT WAS MEANT TO BE MORE ROCK. The GNT performances were better for the tour and the BSC fans but NOT for this performance. The way that he goes up and down the octaves on the GNT performances for me isnt what the idol people will understand and also i believe that he wanted to show more emotion, more passion, not showcase only the voice, which i think he did BRILLIANTLY. JMHO I know NOTHING about music and notes. Just what and how i feel music.

He is SO good at changing up his performances - a song we have all heard a million times suddenly sounds like a completely different song. Always keeps me interested!!
