5.22.12 THE DARK SIDE - Post here if.....

I have watched Kris Allen for a longtime only because of his connection to Adam. And this tweet of his today where he sends a pic of his album above Adam's on itunes in terms of rank?

yeah I reckon that was deliberate. He can be passive aggressive - ive noticed that in the past.

So pleased Adam THEN sent a tweet saying he just bought Kris and Haley's albums (hayley's album is also in the pic under Adams). Thats no coincidence. Its a mature reply to Kris' tweet.

Oh i know it could have been innocent but having watched Kris - not in my view.

lololol Q3, if the purpose of this gif was to make me run away... ;D It's so freaking hypnotic *stares*

also, I love dark sides 8-)
BTW it's so funny that Adam's own definitions of "dark"and "light" sides are different in the vid and the album concepts. In the BTIKM video light means people-pleasing, having good manners and living healthy, being calm, cheerful, reasonable and polite, just like your mom taught you. It's positive, content and passive. The dark side is the opposite - easily bored, ambitious, volatile, it turns self-destructive when idle, it craves change like air and will stop moving only when dead, like a shark. So the vid's concept resembles a kind of a yin-yang in reverse, cause as far as I remember, traditionally the yin part is passive and dark, while yang is light and active.

The album though, it's different. Here the light side means outgoing, winsome, positive and confident Adam, who loves being subversive and weird and desidedly NOT like your guy-next-door at all, thank you very much. Both a gameface and the deepest truth, it's Adam we all fell in love with. And the dark side is just a very human underbelly to all this joie-de-vivre. Hurting, and being insecure, and self-loathing at times - it's all so common and familiar to any of us. Honestly, the only difference is Adam usually shines so bright you don't see any of it.

Wonder if it was intentional or just Adam looking at things at a new angle later. Hmm. Personally I like definition nimber 2 better, if only because the video at times reminded me quite uncomfortably of the people who equate "bad" and "evil" with make-up, booze and awesome heels:D

tl,dr:DDD Shiny pretty new thread, with a pomegranate!darkAdam header - how could I resist?

Scotia, I have the same problem, but also recently encountered weird delays on youtube, so it may be my computer. Just cannot look into it now.

Thank you Mika, a bit of dark chocolate would be lovely. Destroying the competition is grueling work. (Good god he looks like a majestic fallen angel in that picture, Soooo beautiful)
