I, as a middle age woman who does not listen to a lot of radio, greatly appreciate itskarma giving me her opinion on what the scene looks like.
Thank you!  I know some seem to feel slighted or insulted if I mention age as if to be older is considered an insult for some reason. It is not. There is nothing insulting or demeaning about the word "older" or "younger" for that matter  I go to these concerts and I hang out with fans who are much older than I am and much younger. I love Adam's concerts where age is irrelevant. That's part of the fun of going. I sometimes say things just to let people know what some in the 20 something year old age might be thinking. I can't vouch for teens though. I'm way past that (thankfully) ;D Just don't be lecturing me about getting a job - huh!  It's a tough market out there. |

I read that article that Q3 posted above. I listen to top40 and that's all I listen to and all I like. I notice the patterns that it goes through. I know that we are now emerging out of that LMFAO super electronic, dance, pop, sound ie. Pitbull, JLo etc. I think that's going to die out as it's super repetitive and the same. I don't like rock or WGWG music or any of the AC station crap. My age demographic is on the upper age of the top 40 target market. In 100% honesty I think Trespassing is the best CD I've heard since I fell in love with Lady GaGa's first CD, Monster (not a big fan of the 2nd). This has nothing to do with being a fan of Adam. I may not publically vocalize anything I dislike of Adam's but at the same time I won't say I like something if I don't. I just say nothing I notice his older fans want the more rock sound but it's just not a sound that's current today. To me Trespassing is the sound of the next stage. I don't know if some realize just how good it really is because it might not be geared to that particular demographic. It's not what's on the radio now yet at the same time it is. It's the next step above. It's way superior to what's on their now. It's much more complex. It's updated retro. I hope the PD's are astute enough to see it. I know my friends who range in age from 22-28 agree with me that it's the best pop album out there. I know a lot of the UK media have seemed to realize it but they always tend to be a step ahead of the US as far as musical taste (We'll forgive them for Cher Lloyd and 1D) - maybe
Just wanted to make 1 comment, I'm 57, and do NOT want Adam doing rock. I think it may be a bit of a generalization that older fans would prefer that he does rock. I know that there are older fans that do want him doing rock but I know MANY fans in my age category that feel as I do. 
And I'm 57+ ;D and am perfectly happy with Adam doing pop. Cuz...well he does it so well! My musical desires are on the back burner because they are irrelevant to his success. And tttt I actually like pop.
Btw - here a link to play NCOE video on a loop. It's set up as a playlist and I am assured every play counts! This has only 10 but there is one out there with 25. I lost the link unfortunately.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3dkVk3F57cFOUND IT! Here's the one with 25: bit.ly/Ky3QKb |

Was this response aimed at me?? Yes, I clicked on the blue letters!!
I haven't been able to access that new feature ever since Q3 added it to ATOP. At least not on Chrome. Yup, same for me. If there is a "normal" html-link to the page, those work just fine. Frankly, I'd prefer those... 'cos I'd really like to hear what Glampoon has put together for us. I removed the spoiler tags now, you should be okay |

Watching the ustream -- all in French. : Lots of screaming, and lots of young girls. What's going on? I think Adam is there, but they have this idiot talking to the audience members. WTF? |

Wow. THIS is the BEST interview EVER EVER EVER!!! Adam was fabulous. The questions were fabulous. They played his music. Wish they could all be like this. Certainly a good interview..open ....honest and the interviewer had knowledge of Adam, his music. He is a quality interviewer in Canada. BUT and I throw my BUT in there. What I don't get is ...once Adam clearly defines that he is fine talking about himself as the gay artist, yet his hope is to be recognized for the singing/artistry and his work ... WHY do they not switch the coding of the interview to that very thing. Let's talk MUSIC!!Anyone with good people skills should get the drift much faster. BUT they are media people who have their own goals from a interview. Adam's tone and energy switched/dropped when asked more and more about the gay topics. Can hardly wait for the days when music is the focus. |
