The high notes are what got the standing ovation and a tear in Cher’s eye.
I just remembered that this show took place on December 2nd in DC, the day after Adam taped the Strictly Come Dancing show in London.

Adam was amazing! The high notes and every other note was perfect! I loved the looks on the concert goers faces and all the tweets during the show. It is one of the best performances I have ever seen. I hope it will put him on the map for other special TV shows like the 4th of July show, the Natl. Anthems at games and a special Christmas show. He really should be singing things other than pop. Classical music and ballads were made for his voice! The duet was fabulous and it was only one time with Melissa Etheridge that it didn't work. Other than tha,t every duet has been exceptional as his voice can blend with anyone's. This was exceptional and so much fun. I love how Adam can switch up his voice to make it work for many genres. So happy for him!!

His duets with Angie Miller of “Titanium,” with Leona Lewis on “Girl Crush” and with the X Factor Australia runner-up were all special and outstanding blends of their voices.
I forgot what was the other duet he did with Cyndi a few years ago.

Out of all the duets he has done with females, I think Girl Crush was the best. The duet with Melissa was the worst. Man I had high hopes for the latter.

I think I really would have loved Believe if not for the high notes. Before I'm blasted, let me say I've often said I wish AL would hold back, less is more, and for a bit tonight while he was singing Believe that's what I thought he was doing.
He proved me wrong. Darn LOL...it was so close.

Just watched it. A little worried when you mentioned the high notes, but I was pleased. A very good performance. The high notes weren't that bad, and not really even that high for him. I think D5 or Eb5 was the highest, but I need to watch again.

After watching again, i'm fairly certain the high note was D5. Not all that high really (for Adam) so I think it was a bit tame. Of course, I think he's lost a bit of his upper range over time. Regardless, I enjoyed the performance.

I honestly didn't know which notes he hit, whoops.

I kinda wish he would've sustained it a little longer, cause it is a good note there, but he may have lost the pitch a bit if he tried. But really, that's just nitpicking and I think he did himself well tonight. I jsut watched it on youtube, I'm assuming it made the show and was televised?

This one is a bit better quality:

Of course, it's not great either, and I expect something HD will show up in the next couple of days. Btw, the D5 is at 3:11.

Brancelli, thanks!

Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, etc, to everyone here. Even the trolls. We may agree. We may disagree. But where we are family is that we are all passionate music lovers. I have no problem if you hate Adam with Queen. Subjectively, I'm still a bit dubious about it myself. Nonetheless, objectively, the guy is a very skilled singer.

Yep, it made the show, plus the duet of I Got You Babe with Cindi Lauper.
