Yes, I cringed a tiny bit when he dropped the f-bombs in Cuckoo knowing there were kids in the audience. It's London darling, those kids hear worse on an hourly basis  |

Cuckoo + NCOE [/quote This man never ceases to amaze me. He is really in his element and what an extraordinary musician he is. He always knows exactly what he wants with the music. He takes my breath away. |

...personally, I have come to loathe, "ladies and gentlemen" because it just sounds so...stilted, I guess. He's usually so charismatic and original that when he does use a more typical/trite expression, I find myself going, "arrrrwhoooo?" with the Scooby-Doo head tilt because it just doesn't sound like, well, Adam. ETA: Personally, I'm voting for "Banshee girls and dancey boys...are you getting DOWN???" I personally prefer "are you ready to party tonight, motherf*uckers" or "dance bitches!" But those probably work better when he's not wearing a suit. I'd go with all those and the drinking game (if I still drank :-)) The ladies and gentlemen is just his theatre training I bet - it's a hard habit to break. Love his little adamisms tho - it's who he is. |

Or when he's doing a concert for sick children :  Yes, I cringed a tiny bit when he dropped the f-bombs in Cuckoo knowing there were kids in the audience. I do wish there was a "clean" version of the song so I could let my kids listen to it (although sometimes I just turn that part down real quick if we're listening in the car). Guess I'll have to wait for the radio edit! Psssssst !! PM nationalglampoon, there *is* a created "clean" version! |

It's London darling, those kids hear worse on an hourly basis I was gonna say - even tho I'm not a fan of the language we use all the time now, it's hardly something that kids don't hear at school and in their music and everywhere else. Just is. |

Just want to encourage people, if the opportunity arises naturally, to make international friends. Like Adam does when he tweets to other acts. Today the headliner act at Royal Albert Hall was JLS. Who played for the Queen at her Jubilee. JLS are a boy band who are GIANT in UK. They have a friggin 3-D movie of their sold out tour coming out this month. I had never heard of them until today. They are basically BoyZone but they look like Hip Hop kids. Cute. And they can really sing. (As could BoyZone. Love Ronan Keating.) Remember, the UK likes singers who can actually sing. So I tweeted: Think that's JLS. Mega Boy Band du jour. @coconutgrove0 Adam at Royal Albert Hall tonight MTV UK pic twitpic.com/9tuo3b And 6 JLS fans retweeted that. One started following me. Her bio says "I live for JLS" and some other even more committed stuff. (She's a teen) Sensing a marketing opportunity, I did some searches on JLS. They're good. Biebs better watch his back. 4 cute guys with actual talent. And YAY ADAM FOR GETTING YOUR PIC WITH THEM. Then I tweeted:
Researched JLS. They're huge, very cute & can actually sing. Surprised not in US. Have 3-D movie coming out. Fab that their fans saw Adam. 11 RT's from JLS fans. One of whom cleverly replied: actually, it's great that Adam fans saw JLS. I tweeted back, of course. (Even though didn't actually see them. But saw vids. They're good.) JLS fans clearly search "JLS" on Twitter all the time. So any chance we have to make friends around the globe, can't hurt to praise their, uh, Idol.  I am so unbelievably impressed by this post. Thank you FHS. |

Not gonna lie, the excessive "ladies and gentlemen" used to drive me nuts.....now I find it rather endearing and think it IS becoming a bit of an Adam trademark. It's also quite cute how he inflects his banter - everything sounds like a question.... |

Just is. It's all in the context for me. If someone said "I fucking love racquetball" I wouldn't get offended, but if they told me "I want to bang your mum" for example I'd probably get offended but wouldn't get offended any time I hear "bang". That's just me but it seems to be a pretty common attitude here in the UK so I don't think we need to worry about Adam's RAH f-bombs. |
