Cassie & SVCA - Thanks so much for that suggestion ( and bringing over the clip) of the tutorial by Angelina Kalahari. That lady was amazing and fascinating wasn't even the word! She, truly, is amazingly knowledgeable! Wow! She did talk about one thing that I didn't quite get - she talked about being in an intimate venue with him where he literally " sucked up the air around him". I'm not quite sure if she means physically or emotionally! I know when Adam walks by ( on his way to the stage) you do feel as if you're in the presences of Royalty, so maybe it's more of a feeling. We all agree, he's special. Thanks again, ladies. Not only are you brilliant, but you're able to put your fingers on an appropriate clip from a massive amount of info, at the drop of a hat! 😊😊😷😷 When Adam was just starting out I saw him at a small outdoor venue in Toronto. He was performing along with other artists. During the intermission, I left my seat to stretch my legs. Adam was just entering the venue. He was followed by press, of course. I was actually quite close as he came in. Now, I have to agree with the comments here. I did not feel like I was in the presence of royalty, but he has an unbelievable presence. Yes, he is tall and drop dead gorgeous- very impressive, but it is something else. It is like a magnetism-very hard to describe. It was a very unusual feeling for me as I had never experienced that before. Now when I hear others mention this charisma, I know exactly what you are referring to. By the way, Mad World and Superpower were wonderful on Saturday!

Since it is very quiet today I was wondering if 'off topic Monday' is still in effect. If not, please feel free to delete.
My daughter is a big Queen fan and loves their music. She is a writer and editor, and does proofreading and ghostwriting of books in addition to being a Librarian. Awhile back she wrote this parody about writing...has long enjoyed Weird Al and other song parodies.
"Author Rhapsody"
Is this my real book? Fiction or fantasy? Caught in a maelstrom, Words escape from reality.
Open your eyes, Look up at my shelf and see, I'm just so frazzled, give me your sympathy, Words are just easy come, easy go, Word count high, word count low, Anyway, the word flow is really important to me, to me.
Mama, just wrote a book, Pushed the button to publish, Now I’m heading into bliss. Mama, new life has just begun, But now I've gone and started something else.
Mama, ooh, Now this really makes me sigh. If I can’t wade out by this time tomorrow, Help me out, help me out, ‘cause content really matters.
Too late, my deadline’s past, Blank pages in my mind, Fingers shaking all the time. Goodbye, everybody, I've got to write, Gotta leave you all behind and form those plots.
Mama, ooh (Anyway, the word flow), I don't wanna cry, I sometimes wish I never wrote books at all.
Help me out, help me out, ‘cause content really matters.
I see the giant silhouettos of them all, Patterson, Stephen King, and Janet Evanovich. Very, very frightening, Everyone’s outwriting me! (J.K. Rowling) J.K. Rowling. (J.K. Rowling) J.K. Rowling, J.K. Rowling, Lee Child and John Grisham-am-am-am-am.
I'm just so frazzled, give me your sympathy.
She's just so frazzled, lacking said sympathy. Spare her fried brain from these monstrosities.
Word count high, word count low, will you let me go? Keep writing! No, we cannot let you go. (Let her go!) Keep writing! We cannot let you go. (Let her go!) Keep writing! We cannot let you go. (Let me go!) Your words gotta flow. (Let me go!) Cannot let you go (cannot, cannot, cannot, cannot let me go) Oh oh oh oh No, no, no, no, no, no, no! Oh, publishers, Oh, publishers (Oh, publishers, let me go.) Now tons of work have my clients all assigned to me, to me, to me.
You think I can edit your books with such ease? You think I can ghostwrite and do it to appease? Oh, clients, why do this to me, clients? Just need to go write, just need to go write while I’m here.
(Ooooh, ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
I am really tired, Everyone can see, I am really tired, Writing books just does this to me.
Anyway, the word flow.
*********
I just thought I'd post that as a little Queen related diversion. If anyone knows someone who needs help with a book you can dm me if you want.

No matter how you describe it, Adam does have an amazing presence, charisma, and magnetism that is there for all to see and feel, and I do feel this overwhelming kinship with many here at this site based solely on the mutual love, respect and appreciation of this man. Call me crazy, but only in my " real" life do people really think my obsession is nuts! I've found a home here and it feels so good!

Wonderful vocals! Even by Adam standards. This visual is great too, looking into camera. Gorgeous, impressive, fun - that laugh! Gosh, I wish he could have this set up to sing to us even one song once a week or so on insta

Can anyone bring over the original Instagram post? I couldn't open the vid but luckily it's already on YT ( ). But of course it would be better to give Adam the viewers...
