Well, this is weird! After 2 1/2 years, the AMAs just uploaded Adam's performance to their VEVO channel! Well, Adam promised that he could "turn into the North Pole and show us what is cold." But I didn't actually expect hell to freeze over. This IS a red-letter day. That performance was terrible, but it will be in my heart forever, because it was the first time I ever saw Adam, and was captivated enough to check him out. I wanted to chime in a little on the "this song is about _____" discussion. I am a writer, though I have never written any songs. When you write a story, you draw on all your experiences to create something entirely new. You may draw a bit from here and a bit from there.
For example, I wrote a novel with a major character who was someone entirely different from myself. Different sex, race, very different circumstances. I was a little worried about how it was going to go and could I make him realistic. But he turned out great! I drew on the times in my life when I felt disrespected and disenfranchised, as he was. Another character was an alcoholic and a drug addict, and I hardly ever even have a glass of wine. I drew on other experiences and several recovering addicts have praised this character and his realism. I think there is a lot of "method acting" in writing. Adam may or may not have lived every detail of the "story" of his songs, but they resonate because he has known love, obsession, pain, longing, crazy times, etc. and so we feel it along with him. I'm not much of a 'Great Writer'.. but when I did write in a limited capacity some of what came out was in an unconscious way. Looking back, I could see some of the imagery being pulled from strong experiences, various pieces of art work that impacted me and some pop culture. I don't believe any creation has a cut and dry origin.

Being the HUGE Alabama and Trent Richardson fan that I am, I'm so happy to see him taking a stand. He was up for the Heisman this year and experts are expecting big things from him as a pro, so I hope if he becomes higher profile in the NFL he continues to speak out for gay/human rights.
