Oh! Thanks for posting it. I think I remember this now. I wonder where that window is in the layout of his home. Probably a staircase? I could see Adam replacing the art deco blocks with an amazing custom designed modern style stain glass. More creative, to me, than the black glass. But I know nothing!lol Maybe something like this: The possibilities are endless. Maybe he could commission one of his artist friends to design something that could be made into an amazing window. I am in love with the way light shines through colored stain glass and makes beautiful images. Yes, but then it wouldn't be "Sand Witch TM-AFL" style. :D Pretty sure that block window was replaced for the view. It faces the view of downtown. Much nicer, to see every morning, than either frosted glass or stained glass, IMO!

Always thought that obscene language, both of english and french, is poor. Sure, I'm not anything close to native speaker, but it seems, it's all around "fuck" and "putain" in most of exclamations... Well, that's not the case in russian...and don't make me start to use their "colourful language", because it's not even translatable what I got to say...))) If it doesn't take too much time of yours...give us some more gifs like that, puhleeeezzz :D ***Freakydeaky, France is like the nest of debauchery, especially when you're a student)) so it wasn't difficult to learn some stuff :D So.. Since you asked, one more oldie before bed. Filmed very close to me, even though I wasn't there. Maybe a little lesson in colourful russian then??

Anyone know if Adam has someone house sit for him while he's away...friends, his Mom? I know he probably has a monitored security system, but still, if it were me, I'd want someone I trust watching over the place. Just my two cents. Did you ever see the film Bling Ring? Hard to believe people like Paris Hilton and Lindsey Lohan would leave their doors unlocked or keys under plant pots and no security system in place. I expect security is a bit tighter in Hollywood these days.. But no, sorry, I don't know the answer to you question. Good question though. He might have friends look after but I would say, not his Mom. She has her own place in Orange County. Yes, he does have security features, (like cameras and alarm.) He actually talked about installing some, when he was renting, so I am sure he has it for his own house now too.

I wanted to type the same thing. It is very interresting to hear what he has to say about all the tracks. Like he told that the order of songs on the album was well thought of, when i listen te album now, i pay more attention on it. I hope he will discuss the bonus tracks as well This is Adams second album where he mentions the order of the songs and that he/they had a plan for the order. I hardly hear about this from other artists, although i of course know that every artist and producer will think about this, but mentioning it in interviews so it probably is something Adam really cares about, is something new for me (and I like it) I have heard other artists discuss this before, of course I'm not going to remember all of them with my fried brain, but I seem to remember someone from Keane saying they met U2 and one of them told Keane how important it was to get the order of the tracks right, or it can ruin an album, because of how it's experienced. So it does seem to be important. I must admit I have sometimes only been able to get into an album by listening to it on shuffle, as it just didn't work in the order it was played. Tove Lo has an album out (Queen of the Clouds) that is one big story, with some short spoken interludes to announce the next section. The Sex - The Love - The Pain. Yep, it's about a relationship gone wrong. And there are a few Queen albums that don't work too well on shuffle either .

I had some fun playing with the Billboard vid yesterday. There can never be enough edits from this, right?? Goodnight!

Marlazzinger - I think everywhere is the den of debauchery when you're a student.. I know many Russians over here, maybe I could impress them with my colourful Russian! What did you think of the food over here? I was at a bbq yesterday and we had what was described to me as mutton bollocks! Sheep balls! I did actually try some. I will not be doing it again...

Don't forget to Shazam Adam every day! He moved back up to #35 in the USA again after languishing in the 40/42 range since the beginning of August.
And I'm pissed miffed at Spotify, Ghost Town should be on the Top 50 Global chart. It's numbers have beat the #50 song 5 out of the last 6 days and we are at three in a row right now and it's 7 day average is over today's #50 song too so we've got to give them no excuses. #PlayAdamOnSpotify
A bright spot, since I have the free version I do get advertisements. Topsify playlists was advertising their top 40 US playlist using Ed Sheeran and Adam's pictures on the ad. GT is #8 down on that playlist (350,000 followers). Disclaimers, it has been on the playlist for a long time, Topsify is owned by Warner Music, but this is the first I've seen it advertised and it has moved up in the list from what I can remember.
Another Spotify note. Germany is kickawesome. Yesterday they streamed it 73000 times. That's around 13% of the total Spotify streams for GT. The other big streamers are Sweden at 64,000 streams and the Neatherlands at 57,000 streams.

It must be so close. Germany is indeed on the loose! Another nice detail: GT also jumped onto the Top 50 list of Austria (only 2,200 streams though). GT is now charted in 11 countries! Love my countries streaming also. I estimate that the Netherlands has streamed about 4.9 million of those 45 million streams now. Should be close to double Platinum now!
Sweden also did around 4.5 million streams total so far I think. Denmark and Finland both have over 2 million streams total now.
