This is just mind boggling! 7 million in marketing for this song!! Sounds pretty damn stupid to me! Mind boggling indeed (or inflated to minimize profits in the litigation award consideration ?) article also shows approx $24.3 in revenue: (using 5.5 to record company) "The song brought in $5.6 million for Thicke, $5.2 million for Williams and another $5 million to $6 million for the record company, as well as an additional $8 million in publishing revenue. " So approx $17.3 million profit, not too shabby

My wild card nomination is the Leno 'Sleepwalker' which got left off the 'Best Televised performance' nominations even though it was nominated. IMO it beats 'Marry the Night' as it's Adam being himself rather than playing a character. There's incredibly hot about the Vulcan Captain Lambert of the Starship Glamnation. It's a crime against music to leave this off An AL best of playlist. vimeo.com/103960354I second this nomination! Thanks Curly! This is my favorite Adam TV performance; he sang his face off on this particular Jay Leno show. The audience reaction was off the charts. I have always loved Sleepwalker and this shortened version of it was the bomb.

It's a business. It has unspoken roles. One of them is, "Look young, svelte, sexy, and well-toned, and show it. Be objectified to be successful." I have positive feelings about Adam's gym pics. He was born with a beautiful voice and trains it - I think because he appreciates and enjoys his voice and wants longevity in his career. And he was born with a beautiful body and now he is training it - I think because he appreciates and enjoys his body and wants longevity in his career and in life. (And I think it's just another new way to add a twist to his already-awesome-ness.) Working out might not solely be about "business," and I think Adam is posting the pics because he likes the look and it's fun. Training might be less of a "have to" and more of a "want to" because it feels good, is gratifying, gives the mind a break, etc. + health/aesthetic results.

I'm only part way thru my "best of QAL 2015" playlist but, this has to be my favorite 'Save Me'. His voice is so upfront it is like he is singing in my living room. Many folks don't care for the sound of a more "dry feed" but on this song, less is definitely more, and the purity of Adam's voice shines thru. (Consensus is that somehow, kinkykiedis picked up the feed to Adam's ear monitors, not the front of house sound.) youtu.be/RzLM1ewR1ggIf you haven't downloaded my Leeds audio, it is even better - my best audio of the entire 2014/2015 tour. The acoustics where I was sitting was really awesome! I am with Cassie on this Save Me

Q3, I'd like to nominate a few 2015 QAL performances for the bracket! (I'm linking the videos through text to avoid browser slowdown). First up, here's The Show Must Go On from Hamburg from vanglam76. Backbend + final run = amazingness. Secondly, Somebody to Love from Krakow Veronika Bazalova - featuring the towel, fringe removal, and the absolutely insane high note at the end. Last, but certainly not least, I Want It All from Sheffied by kinkykiedis. I don't think we have an IWIA in the bracket yet, so this one could be interesting! This particular performance probably includes the most ridiculous pre-song riffing of the tour. If we're only allowed one nomination, I'd like mine to go to Sheffield IWIA. I second your choices. Have gone cuckoo insane trying to listen to all the STL, but in the end, the one here is wonderful. i agree with show must go On. And including I want it all. We must have the riffing. So many wonderful choices, it's crazy good.
