The Circle of Eidolon : Please do not come on here pushing your fucking views on to me either you stupid fuck wit,
My favorites from Adam’s first album were Aftermath and Broken Open but my choices are not what are picked for singles. I would have picked The Original High and The Light for singles from his last album.
I would never have chosen WWFM for a single and to be nominated for a Grammy.

Thing is, it wasn't your choice to begin with as to what was released or not. Sure, I would have have loved if EITN was released as a single, but what happened, happened.
You have too many chips on your shoulders about many things that has happened...or didn't even happen... in AL's career. So much so, I can see you turning on Brian and Roger once Q+AL is over with.
SweetCaroline Rockchic, Sniflese, all obsessed with Adam but will they still be when the shows are over and ts getting closer !
The thing is, Icy, that unless you are the first person to start a trend, you pretty much have to follow it. It can't be music that is out of left field for the most part. You follow the different decades and one or another type of music has dominated and unless you do heavy rock or metal, or grunge, or EDM or hip hop, your stuff isn't going to be listened to by the masses that decade. They will find it too different. Adam is kind of unusual in that a CD can have several types of music on it. Many people have said that. " He needs to stick to one type of music and record only that." He hasn't done that and it might have hurt him, but that is one of the things I really like. The first CD had all sorts of different genres on it and that was my favorite one.
Of course we will really like Adam's music after the concert. Why would you even say that? Caroline and I have been fans since Idol and rockchic for quite a while also. I think we have all seen one concert at least in each QAL tour. We are pretty much fans for life! Just like I have been a Queen fan for life. I was just thinking. Queen's music has so many kinds of songs on an album and that might also be a reason I love them so much. I have had albums were you can't tell one song from the other as they are all too similar. So many artists do that now and I don't find it appealing. Maybe that is one of the reasons I love both Queen and Adam! They are a little more diverse.

You are an idiot. I've been reading circle of eidolon's posts and no where on this site has he name called anyone.
What he appears to do is ask people to step back take a look at what they think and look at a broader picture. You on the other hand faced with something you're incapable of countering ( I take it you know what that means) just rely on name calling.
I'd really like to here eidolon's views on your reply. . . .
snifflese, yes that is why Adam has been such a good fit for Queen. They both incorporated various genres in their albums. Adam will always perform a variety of music because he is not boring.
I don’t get the notion that you can’t be a devoted fan of more than one person or group. I’m going to see a Jeff Glynne’s ELO concert this summer two weeks before the QAL concert. If Adam tours a new album in the future, I hope it will be within driving distance of my home. So far I haven’t flown to see a show although I wanted to go back to Vegas last year for the QAL residency.

I really hope AL has done what he has done so far in his solo career, it's because it's what he wanted to do. Not because of what was trendy.
I really like how Queen did many genres in their career, to me they were...and remain very original. No pun intended ;-). But pretty amazing what and how the guys came up with what they did.
I almost wish AL had a band to write and record with. He did say live instruments, so that could be a good thing.

AL is nowhere in the league Queen was genre wise, sorry not sorry. I doubt AL could write a rockabilly song like CLTCL, or a rocker like SCC. Or a ballad like Save Me. I actually don't think he would be singing songs of that nature if not for Brian and Roger. It would be the pop and EDM music, I think going by his three albums.
A part of me thinks AL will be known more for singing other people's music than his own music. IMO, he has limited himself by not being able to play an instrument and focusing so much on Q+AL.
He may well be remembered for singing other people's music. But as I told you yesterday, that is fine with me. I just love to listen to his voice no matter what he sings. Some of the great singers have sung other's music, esp. in the classical area. Singing is Adams forte. He isn't much of a writer, although his ideas may be good but he needs others to craft it into a song. I would have no knowledge of that, but I do think he is creative. He isn't a musician and that makes writing music pretty difficult also. There are writers who are not good enough to sing their own music, musicians that can't sing and singers like Adam who don't really write music and don't play an instrument, but that one person can be a one of a kind writer, singer or musician and we will just have to be satisfied with that. They can't all be Freddie's who could do all of the above, otherwise he wouldn't be one of a kind!
I think anyone would have to be a fool to not work with Roger and Brian. Adam is a singer who lives to perform. That is his innermost being and he excels at that. His live performances are so much better than the recorded CD's and that hardly ever happens nowadays. Playing Queen's music with all the pomp and circumstance, the musicianship of Brian and Roger, the fabulous catalog to sing. That has to be a singer's pig heaven!! I don't know how anyone would not choose to do this if they were capable because it is a very tough job and Adam loves challenges! I think he may also be a late bloomer. There could be a hit out there in his future and sometimes all it takes is one big song. Then too, I am not giving up on Broadway. He would love to do a new show written with him in mind. I saw those gentlemen in the Kennedy Center who were honored for their writing Hamilton. They were grinning and practically salivating when they watched him sing. Maybe something will be written for him. It will be interesting to see. I doubt he will ever be sorry he worked with Brian and Roger as it is a chance in a lifetime.
Vocal Harmony You are a right one slagging me off because you go around this fucking site slagging other people off on a daily basis.
Your a two faced dirty little slag fuck you.
When you have to have than many swear words in such a short post, there is a problem!
snifflese, agree with you 100%. When Adam sings live he brings his own recorded music to a new level. “After Hours” is one of those songs. On his last solo tour he had the audience swooning with that song, one that probably was never considered as a single.
I loved After Hours! So much better live than recorded! They seem to take the life out of Adam's voice and use far too much instrumentation on recordings. At a concert he just feels the song and can let it soar.
Yes, and that’s also why when skeptical fans go to a QAL concert, they say they are surprised and stunned by those live performances.
