Thanks, Wal and Albiku, learned something.
Regarding Shout. I felt kind of the same way as you did. Listened to it and loved Tommy's guitar solo the most. He nailed that one and I am not someone to easily say that about Tommy. And it is not because Adam was not great, of course he was, but I am not sure that in this case his clear and unobstructed singing style fit with the song, except for at the end, when the rock wailing started, then it worked, but the whole beginning was somehow a mismatch between song and his singing. That said, I like when Adam experiments and some things work and others don't and in the end it is his opinion that matters.
Otherwise, I am since a while struggling with Is This Love. It used to be so wonderful Bob Marley swinging sound. But now, with Rick on the drums, he does not do the rhythmic delays that create that swinging reggae sound but rather does a straight 1,2,3,4, or something. Throws the whole rest of the group off too. If this version would have been the first time Adam had ever done that cover, I think he would have never gotten a news cycle out of it.
The strange thing is, when they go into reggae sound during OOL, it is working fine producing those reggae rhythms. So what is going on? What do others think? Is this intentional to do ITL so differently? Or am I just imagining things?

Almost afraid to say this but I didn't like Shout, and that was one of my favourite songs back in the day. *runs for cover* Because of your comment I really wanted to hear it ...live... form the original group. Well I found an amazing vid. In this video,T for F played with a symphony orchestra, and numerous back up singers. WOWZERS! I do see what you mean...the rawness/edge and actually softness to their version gives it a totally different feel. Adam's take on the song is ...much more ...aggressive in your face with the word "shout", yet more smooth on the parts the other band made rough..not loud just rough. Like a flip flop. Just his way of taking a song and making it Adam Lambert style. A bit the way he does chose to do Stay...(to use Cassie's word) he makes it more like honey than Rhianna's raw/rough style.
I hope by the time he gets to Helsinki.... they get .... every damn song he sings on this tour!
A 2 hour concert for the finale of the tour! Yah!
(And for the rest of the Europeans--that would be cool for your city too!)
