I totally love(!) "Superpower", both the song and the music video, but the performance fell a bit flat for me. Not sure if the mic issues and Adam not feeling 100% well were solely to blame, but I think that something a little less OTT with less gold chains around his neck would have worked better. Shoot me now but I am a bit disappointed to be honest. As much as I love "Superpower", I was really hoping and somewhat expecting a genuine moment after seeing "Closer To You" in the twitter announcement. May be Adam couldn't pull it off vocally this morning.

Actually got to watch it on TV. He got better and better as it went along. Though I bet it is a hard song to sing, with all the shifts from low to hig, and all the falsetto. I wonder if he’ll end up singing it more full voiced live as time passes, as he did with TOH. He can nail the falsetto in the studio probably with multiple takes. Don’t shoot me, but it’s never been his strong suit live! He looked great. Love the leather. I agree, thought all the same things you just said

It was the same with „The original High“. there is a reason, why he changed the falsetto parts in the live performances after a couple of tries. Maybe it’s just me and my dislike of falsetto, in the first place. Superpower has been far from my favorite song for that reason from the beginning and that performance today unfortunately underlined that... Oh, well, onto the next performance. I‘m sure, Adam will do anything he can to do better!

The mic issue was very brief, just one line of the song. I thought Adam was great. I love the backup singers and I hope he uses them on his own tour. I was not disappointed. Nice boost for the song, too!

And this is with sound issues.. That is pretty good movement even with the mic problem. SP is not my favorite song from Side A but I do like it a lot and Adam did a great job, imo. His falsetto was fine to me but I wish he would use less of it. And even tho I may like some of the other songs more, it was a given that he was going to sing his single that is going to radio. Fingers crossed that they give him enough radio play so that it does well enough (and fans support it) to get CTY released to radio too. That would be a dream situation for me. Would make up for Feel Something not getting any promotion and a chance. Loved his rockstar looks.
