I had no idea who he was then - he did do a great job with his song - but now I know him because I'm watching Kim's Convenience Store on Netflix

Did anyone catch an Adam song at the beginning of tonight's episode of Ghosts on CBS? I was in the other room and it only registered at the end. Was before show intro so like in the setup section. Not sure it was Adam either, my ears just perked up. Oops let me try again. Yes, I agree - I heard it and I definitely think it was Adam! Very brief but I heard it. Fixed your quote --- Yeah, I'm glad I'm not totally crazy. I found it! - You Make me Feel Mighty Real www.cbs.com/shows/video/0ENIvVzQ9PPbyfFf8qpS9N7b_V3epFyQ/ (Ghosts, Season 3, Episode 10, Wedding) Don't know how long the video will work so hopefully someone clips it. Very quick in the first minute.

That took me a minute to get into but they pulled it off.

Wasn't it released as the first single? My mom passed in late 2017 and it was just playing on my radio stations then. I count 7 years. It's still my ring tone.

I don't remember this one here either - another version of Soaked - not the same reviewer (they look alike to me)

This one popped up when I was watching political videos of all things. Soaked is now taking up space in my brain. From a music coach. He did Adam's Nessun Dorma a few months ago. It is another Madison G request.

I've rarely been the first one to post something. This is a worthwhile reaction video for me, as a musician. This guy pointed out a couple new things in the orchestration. Should be shared with Michael Orland too!

Adam was in very good company with Max Martin and Dr. Luke. They worked with all the biggies. Too bad they didn't take him to the highest heights like they did with the others. I'll never figure it out. Probably a number of reasons. I'm sure his sexuality played some part (at that time). And his start took a hit with the AMA's and Elvis Duran saying he would not play FYE. Not a good start. But I think the biggest drawback was he was not female. And the women rule pop and his label did not get him any exposure anywhere else. Nor was he one of the teen/early 20 year old males that the tween and teen girls (and their parents) were going gaga over. He also wasn't a rap artists who could dominate with streaming. And he came from Idol. Idol was a blessing for Adam because it gave him a fighting chance (which he made good of). But he did not win and the contract for 2nd place was several hundreds of thousands of dollars but not a million. I saw once that Mariah Carey's label used over $3M to launch her career. There is a big difference between $3M and a few hundred thousands to make a career take-off. Even Frank Ocean once said in an interview that his career was going no place until Barry Weiss (former head of RCA) became the head of his label and put up millions to launch him. Money talks and can likely open up many pop radio and streaming playlist doors, especially at the beginning of a career. HA. And Sam Smith's label once bragged about how much effort and money they put into launching his career. And he came on the scene several years after Adam had been beat up and had taken so many of the arrows. But with talent and charisma, Adam is still standing even without many big hits. I remember Adam saying his contract was basically the same as Kris' so I've always thought it was the full million. They had the contracts signed before then end of the season.
