      Apparently, so did the graduating class. Then again, I only made it about thirty seconds into the video…

    sadly I enjoyed this more than most of what I heard on Idol. Maybe I’m just old, but the shrieking isn’t for me!

  3. Jen says:

    I love him. And we totally would have been friends in high school.

  4. Andi says:

    OK. So yesterday, you were crying foul that Adam didn’t win and today he has dodged a bullet. Curiouser and curiouser…

      That’s because Beet was sad about Adam, and this entry was written by Wendie.

      Adam looks kinda cute with that blond hair! aww.

    I gotta say, not a fan of the au naturel look.

    You can see the beginnings here of the voice, the charm and that incredible smile. I have been around for the beginning of Elvis,and other pop/rock people and I believe Adam is the BEST.Certainly the best in my lifetime… I watched every AI he was on and voted like crazy next year will be really dull!

    • me says:

      The best in your lifetime? WOW! So you’re one of those fanatics, huh? btw, you can still tell he likes the penis from way back then

    I gotta admit, he looks kinda cute in this video.. But i absolutely hated him singing this song.. Nobody could ever beat Boyz II Men.. EVER.. And i don’t think anybody should even try to.. lol..

    I like him way better with his natural look, waaaaay better..

    all i could think about with this song is how hard it is to listen too. jeez!

    please tell me i’m not the only one who found it hilarious when he whispered “…all the pain” at around 1:04. i actually snorted out loud.

    I could sing this better while drunk off my ass in a Karaoke bar.

    Ok, all I know is that I like him much better WITH eyebrows… I think he’s found his look will the black hair and guyliner… He kinda reminds me of Nick Carter here… lol
