Thanks for the responses. I find it hard to express my feelings at those times when they are not as positive as usual as it seems, unless I'm misunderstanding, that some don't really like those kinds of comments. Some days are just hard and the media crap or numbers get to me. I'm just looking for support. I do love and appreciate the positive feedback, attempts to cheer me up, and reminders of what's important. I love Adam so much and my belief in him does not waver. But, I'm human and get scared sometimes. I also feel some push back on expressing these feelings, which is a little hard when I'm feeling bad. I don't do this often and will have to think before I post next time.
Again, thanks for the dialogue. Awwwwwwww (((Hugs))) rjackspf!! Please feel free to PM me anytime you want if you don't feel you can post it here. I'm a good listener and I understand that you get down & scared sometimes. I do too. I'm sure we're not the only ones either. If you haven't yet, watch the vid I just posted a bit above the pics on this page. It should cheer you up a bit. It's the kids at MP singing NCOE to Adam!  It's adorable!
Thanks, bb. I appreciate your offer very much. And, I did watch and yes, I smiled. How can I not? I don't think he'll ever get used to that kind of love (still has that "for me?" look on his face). |

Did they interview Adam in Montreal? I saw part of the ustream with the BTS guy speaking french & I saw the video of the crowd signing NCOE, but did they actually talk to him? Anybody got a link to an interview? Or maybe it doesn't exist? ???

Again, thanks for the dialogue. We all get scared, and sad, and discouraged. It is not healthy to to avoid those feelings. When I get in that place, I allow myself to wallow in the sadness for a while like a pig in slop. I try to feel it all the badness. After a while, I then say to myself, "OK, that's enough of that." Moving on. So post on. There is no need to hide your feelings. We have all been there.
Thanks. It really sucks when it happens. But, tomorrow's a new day. |

AND this is why when it is all said and done, Adam will have his place in history! Also, remember the fans in asia and part of Europe singing along. I bet we get more of the fan singing action in other parts of the world. The day Adam has this happen in the US is the day I will know he has "arrived" in the mainstream here. This was a TV show, not a concert yet they all know the words and sang along like a choir. Just WOW... |

Again, thanks for the dialogue. Oh. You think. So do I. All of us. Look at the conversation, the communication you began. I cannot begin to explain how I dream, live, worry, expect, foresee, angst, exclaim, cry, cringe . . . and then he takes the stage . . . and I go fucking nuts and dance till I'm left only to gasp. Here I am - at the computer - instead of in front of the TV or sewing machine - the way it used to be. Things are very different since I heard his voice. I worry about many things, just like you. But, the ONE thing I don't worry about is Adam's success. It may not be coming in the way I might imagine, but it will come, because excellence will not be denied. And Adam is not just 'excellent'. Back when I used to sing, I performed and if I was really 'excellent' I was elevated to 'command performance' status. I learned that there is always a 'bar' for beyond. Adam is creating a new 'bar'; I really feel his excellence is restructuring not only our societal barriers but our long-standing musical barriers and judgements, as well. Boy - isn't it about time? |

So agree! that is exactly what I did. I love his reinforcement to the crowd when they hit the high note.Adam doing his "bestest"...we are trying our "bestest"...the rest is not in our control. BUT we are so hopeful.... it has to be... IT WILL BE! |

Again, thanks for the dialogue. I interpret a person questioning concern as asking for others to lift them up. I don't take others angst as something negative. Sometimes I may be having my own angst and in this case I don't feel alone even though I may not post about it. Other times I take another person's angst as a time for extending a helping hand of support about why not need to feel down. Don't think anybody should feel bad about having a moment of doubt and wanting some hope and uplifting comments from others here.  |

RjacksPF, sorry today was your day to get the patented pushback. I think my favorite was yesterday's response to the effect that "some may indulge in angst and wank and that is OK." Wow. Thanks! ??? momtomany, you are amazing. I would love to respond to some of the things you said but it seems too late in the day and I can't face waking up to being misunderstood, so let me just say . You are my hero!
