I'm here, sorry! I was on the main board for a minute. Okay... I didn't say Adam WAS a pineapple, I just said that Cabaret caused me to develop a strange obsession withe pineapples, hence linking Adam to said fruit.
Do I think Adam could fill Raul's shoes? No. I think he could play the part, but I've said befoe that (with all due respect to my baby, of course) that Raul is.... let's call it 10 times the actor Adam could ever be. Vocally, I think he'd sound great on it, and I'm sure he'd do a beautiful job, but there's a difference between doing well and filling someone's shoes. Also, the same way that to me, Adam is always going to be Radames, Raul is always going to be Jon.
