LOL, Q3, "now I have learned that I can mix in purple and gray." Great list. NoAngel, I really enjoyed your thoughts on "Broken English" and how the song reveals so much about Adam as a person, even beyond his love relationship, and speaks to his whole outlook and the way he interacts with the world. "Broken English" really snuck up on me. By the end of the second day of listening to snippets I was completely enthralled by it. There's just one gem after another on this album. Just imagine if we'd only had 30-second clips. It would have been such a disservice to the songs. I'm living my life in 21 minute segments, and I bet I'm not alone! Ha ha, so true! |

Q3 and NoAngel! Great essays this morning! Does anyone have the dance songs as their very favorites? With so much love for Underneath and Broken English, I've kind of been afraid to say they are not at the top of my list! Sorry! I have Shady, Kickin In, and Pop That Lock on constant repeat. It takes me a long time to get to the dark side of the album. :-/ Even though I seem to mostly prefer the dark side of the album (especially Broken English, Chokehold, and Underneath), my VERY favorite snippet is SHADY. It's totally at the top of my list! No worries... I'll love the light side for you. Like vote canceling in a general election.  |

What is the average viewship of Kimmel? Googled With its late-night lineup of “Nightline” and “Jimmy Kimmel Live” during the week of April 2, 2012, ABC delivered its 2nd straight week of gains in Adults 18-49 (+1% - 778,000 vs. 774,000). ABC also grew over the year-ago week (week of 4/4/11) by 4% in Total Viewers (2.398 million vs. 2.314 million) to stand as the only broadcaster in late-night to build its overall audience (CBS was down -1%; NBC was down -1%). tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2012/04/12/abc-is-late-nights-most-watched-network-for-the-2nd-straight-week/128822/ |

Of course, it's Adam's fault I'm so bored:) These days there's been a lot of discussion about favourites: fav AI/GNT performance/snippet/sexy photo of Adam..., which is definitely the best way to kill time before Adam entertains us with something new. But just a few minutes ago I had an epiphany- the last nail to my 'Glambert for Life' coffin was not his performances, but his interviews.I remember watching them religiously on Youtube, admiring everything, from his looks, to the way he handled the questions, especially the unpleasant ones, and his wit. He's so quick witted, mentally nimble and resourceful. He leaves the impression of a very experienced conversationalist. Even when he's taken by surprise, he always lands on his feet. Early interviews I really love: Justin Lee Collins! Omg, that is the most hilarious interview Adam's ever done! I've seen it like a gazillion times. Also, Jessi Cruikshank, Michelle Collins, MyBliss - phenomenal! All interviews from Australia and New Zealand are great, especially the Video Hits one. Adam's witty repartees are something to remember, but my favourite comes from an interview where the reporter ( it was a gay station) asked him something like: Now that you're famous, it must be difficult to hit on guys, you can't really make out in parks and back alleys.... And my darling, darling Adam replied: HOMO DON'T PLAY, HOMO DON'T PLAY! In a sense that that's not something he would do anyway, famous or not.  From then on, whenever I'm required to do something I just won't, I say: homo don't play, and accompany it with the appropriate finger action. : |

I was living the 21 mins... but yesterday I downloaded all the snipps (san BTIKM and NCOE) and created a playlist. It goes like this: Shady..another song..Shady..another song..Shady... until it gets to the end of the snippets... this way I get my FIIIIIX every 2 mins! I am in heaven! Re 1st week competition: IMO there is no way to top GLEE...its like SuBo- mass consumption... All I want is to have a decent showing - more that 100K...hope for massive promo: morning and evening Network's TV shows, we have AI, DWTS would be great, especially given that NCOE is a dance song, many mention SNL (I haven't watched it since Belushi/Radner time)... and of course radio! |

Thank you, Q3 and NoAngel, for your insight. I truly believe that stanning Adam has made me a better person, and I think a lot of others feel he has effected them the same way. I see the world in a new and different way. I wonder if Adam realizes that he has, in his own way, changed the world. Can't think of anything to add except   |

I believe that Adam will outsell GLEE Graduation. GLEE still sells but it has lost a lot of its power because there are soooooooo may GLEE albums and tracks. At some point, people move on. In any case on Amazon Trespassing is at #79; Glee Graduation is at #188. (I do not believe Glee Graduation is release for iTunes Presale yet) Trespassing is #121 in all albums on iTunes, #26 in Pop Albums (US) NCOE is staying in the Top 200 at #121 with NO REAL RADIO OR PROMO SUPPORT. This is a great sign. Now with some promo we'll see what this tune can do! |

Glee's three CDs from the end of the 2011 season that were released in the late spring of 2011, sold from 80-90K the first week. This May will be the series end in some respects, that's why I am thinking the Graduation album might sell better than the ones from the end of the season in 2011. The CDs from the end of the season when the club competes(and when they pull out all the best songs, emotional songs, etc.) are usually the best sellers. You never know how these things will go, though. It depends on if the songs are good and how emotional the end is. Emotional=Impulse purchases |
