I don't get it. Adam was invited to the award ceremony for the sole purpose of making a speech about Brian, so obviously he had to admit that he already knew what's in the envelope, i.e. that Brian won. I'm sure it was done in coordination with the people in charge, which were not Mel B. She was just the presenter, wasn't she? Why would she care? There was no incident. The problem with not going along with the 'pretense' of the winner being a surprise is that if that happened at a high profile gig, for eg, AMA's or Emmy's or Oscar's....just to name a few...or even to several of the smaller ones...the whole award show genre/industry would become an open joke and ultimately, fail completely. We know that some are 'real' and some are 'fake' but if we come to believe [rightly or wrongly] that if one is, they all are fake...there goes the value of the award altogether. No more award shows eventually...for good or bad... If Adam did that at a larger show, and threw it off like that, he would never be invited to present an award again...for fear of the same imho I suppose so. My impression was that Adam was told Brian had won, and he prepared a few words about how wonderful Brian was. Then, when he found out it was supposed to be a surprise, he still wanted to talk about Brian. I would guess he got permission to do so. Just my take on it.

Was just listening to the longer Broken video a bit and noticed that this is one of the first songs where Adam is really singing about falling in love right? Wonder what they will do if they do a music video with Adam actually in it... I tried to write down the lyrics again from the video below. This is what I came up with. Italic bold are some words that I'm not sure of or doesn't really make sense. Maybe you can help me complete it? Before I met you I would have said I'm fine if you asked if you asked if you asked me and then you gave the word another life and you got and you got and you got me
I wore the pain on my face hoping some day it would fade you know how to wash it away (oh you do it)
I want the smile that you gave me won't take it off if you paid me I wouldn't say that you saved me (but the truth is)
the night when we met you made me forget that my heart was ever bro broken
looking at me you wouldn't believe that my heart was ever bro broken
Before I met you I wouldn't say I'm alone but it felt but it felt but it felt like it the more my body put my chest for stone (or turned my chest into stone) couldn't break couldn't break couldn't break it
I wore the pain on my face hoping some day it would fade you know how to wash it away (oh you do it)
I want the smile that you gave me won't take it off if you paid me I wouldn't say that you saved me (but the truth is)
the night when we met you made me forget that my heart was ever bro broken
looking at me you wouldn't believe that my heart was ever bro broken
ETA: corrected LindaG23's suggestion and a few of graciejane's. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdOLASQEFsM

girldrummer - if there is something you want to comment on in the opening post, you can highlight and delete or even backspace through everything else in the post. It takes a minute, but I know that sometimes the full headlines post is slow to load because of all the videos etc and people have been known to skip the first page because of it. Just a suggestion Thank you! I realized too late that I goofed up that one. Kina of got lost in the length of the thread.Thanks for the suggestion.

This may be the same edit as the DL file we already have. Not sure.

If they do, the "mistake" is theirs, not his. Adam would not have been there if not for Brian winning, because the organizers (righfully) thought Adam would be the perfect person to present Brian with the award and say a few words about him.

Catching up, and it's been a bit hit or miss, so I don't know if this has already been mentioned, but it sounds to my ears like Adam is singing "if he loves, if he loves, if he loves me" in the beginning of that longer YouTube video of his new song, "Broken." If so, it'll be pretty cool for him to finally have a song (hopefully) on the radio (since "Fever" remained an album cut and unfortunately never got mainstream airplay here) with lyrics that explicitly specify a male love interest. I heard that too!!! ❤️❤️❤️
