are you allowed to bring a camera? or did you sneak yours in?

[gocanux]

Cameras with non-removable lenses were allowed.

Is he a dream? This is all too good to be true. He is the rock star of my wildest dreams.

[dianedlj]

Wow, glad you feel the same as me, I;m 57 and he makes me "rock out" all over again and here I'm eady to retire and he makes me want to listen to "rock" all over again. Glad Adam can make new fans with us real people that grew up with the big rock groups of the 70's 80's, I guess I can say let's "ROCK ON" with Adam, I can''t believe what this Adam stuff has done to me but its been so fun. I am enjoying his ride to "Fame" and him being in the "Starlight"

@dianedlj Oke I'm 40, but I grew up with most of the big rockgroups of the 70's & 80's too. I'm a big Queen fan myself. I kinda rediscover music from time to time when there are great artists emerging to the surface now and then. And Adam just does something to me. It's his voice that touched me, gives me goosebumps and makes me happy. His heart is in his music and you don't see that with many performers these days. He is truly amazing!!!

[allisonadamgirl]

know all of the words 2 it!!!lol

[SeanPound]

Ok Adam now do it again whilst playing guitar

[VHBravo1]

It's not my fault that his voice sounds like Barbara Streisand and he goes flat on the high notes.

[TracyG1981]

I was there! It was the first time I heard this song and I fell in love with it instantly. It's such a beautfiul song no matter who sings it, but I so enjoyed it when Adam sang it. I love the punching and the arms pushing outward.

[Ambisaaa]

To all the assholes saying that Adam ruined the song:

Forgive Adam for changing it a bit and not relying on the original notes. DAMN, what a crime! Is it really necessary to compare Adam to the original artist of EVERY song he sings? Because he doesn't have an album OUT yet, he has to cover other people's songs. Don't freaking bitch about it.

I love you, Adam. :D <3

His singing is so gorgeous, and so is he. He pours so much emotion into his songs.. it feels like he's singing it to me <3

[ExMachina801]

Muse's version is much better. Matt sings it with feeling.

[MissnuAdam]

You beautiful boy, you thrill me to my core!

[MissnuAdam]

Of all the "Starlight" performances, this is my very favorite. I love that the video is slighty blurry and filmed from an angle that captures the waving hands in the foreground, adding to the galactic feel of the song. And what can I say about Adam's vocals? They are "other worldly", too! My favorite segment, though, is when he punches the air at 1:55 - 1:59, then sways with the microphone, flashing a momentary smile as he comes back to center. The smile is quick but I look for it everytime!
