Did they think it was a good thing or did they realize that they're obsessive pyschopaths?

Can you PM me with the site name?

Oh, no. They thought it was a wonderful thing. Hence my laughter.

Maybe if they stopped swooning long enough to, I dunno, listen to the song, they'd grow up.

You're welcome, Nia. (It's hard to keep typing out your full name. And by the way, you keep typing mine as "Chole," but it's "Chloe." Why did I choose a weird name like that?)

I've been thinking about "Book of Endings," since there's been so much talk about it, and have decided it's not one of the songs Adam's written as "himself." Some obviously are, like "I'm With You" and "Beautiful Song," but "Ten Thousand Miles" is not. He's obviously not someone who's stranded somewhere out on an island, so he's writing the song from the point of view of a character. Probably the same with "No Trace" about trying to get over someone who's moved on (though given our earlier discussion...). So my guess is that he started thinking about the whole situation with fan craziness and came up with a song written from the point of view of a character who's the focus of that, not necessarily himself, though obviously he's experienced some of that stuff.

Sorry, Chloe! Fine, go ruin my threadjack. I'll watch my spelling a little closer. And it's fine to just abbreviate to Nia, I like the nickname.

I'm a little hazy on what you mean by writing that song not as himself, but I think you're saying that he's talking about crazy fans in general, not just his own. Did I interpret your post correctly?
#11206

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Exactly. The song is more of a generalization than Adam actually 'speaking,' but some of the points are (and I hide under my chair as I say this, in shame) pretty valid.

Yeah, I think so. For instance, I doubt if he's "put in new alarms" or he's the type who'll make someone cry because he's just that kind of guy. I think the song is partly based on his own experiences, but is not really about him and his fans, but about crazy fans and idols in general.

I do think that some of that is based upon his own experience. As for the crying line... who knows? Maybe he does truly loathe us but is careful not to show it because his career depends on it.

#11209

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

I dunno, he doesn't seem like the loathing type. He might get irritated sometimes though, as anyone might.
#11210

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

I've actually never heard the song Fine, go ruin my threadjack..
I don't have the CD yet. But I'm sure even Adam has been a 'crazy fan' before. Experience on both sides?
#11211

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Allie! Go get the cd! It's amazing!

But yeah- I'm sure he has been a crazy fan over someone-- probably a rock star or band or something
I have my books and my poetry to protect me...
#11212

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Yeah. I've definitely seen Adam get kind of bitchy, but it's only when people get over-the-top obnoxious. The fact that he has gotten irritated and shows it kind of tells me that that's not his nature.

And yeah, Allie... good point. He says he still "freaks out like an idiot" around Billy Joel. Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Get that CD!

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Right, I think I remember reading that he didn't know what to say to Billy Joel

ETA: Or, what Emcee said.

I know, I know. Christmas is coming up. It was at the top of my list.

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Anyone who'd name their child after a rock star is certainly a devoted fan, to say the least. The question is this- is a crazy fan someone who's crazy in love with the music and maybe the artists themselves, or are you only crazy if you stalk them? I doubt he's followed any Beatles, but he might be a tad obsessive over their work. I don't know that the latter is a horrible thing, you just have to be careful that you don't go too far.

Chloe, you never know. He's an actor and this is his entire career, depending on fans. You'd hide loathing well too if you were him.
#11216

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

See, I think my 'craziness' is totally healthy. There's a line that you don't cross, though. And, well, his music is HEAVILY Beatles-influences. Guess it makes sense for the kid to have the namesake, too.

And, well, if it REALLY bugged him that much, he's messing with the WRONG industry. I think you can sort of tell when he's dealing because he has to and when he's really enjoying it.

#11217

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Hopefully he enjoys most of it.

And I think we're boarderline crazy... sporks? I suppose that's more goofy-crazy than truly scary, but still.

Emcee, your craziness is probably unhealthy, but I love you for it. Fine, go ruin my threadjack.
#11218

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Okay, let me re-phrase. It could be worse. Fine, go ruin my threadjack.
And right - more, goofy "I mean this with love" crazy. Not "I'm following you home" crazy. Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Speaking of craziness, how long have I been on this board now? Must go have a life for a while... It's been fun guys.

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Well, well... look what I've missed Fine, go ruin my threadjack..

, but he might be a tad obsessive over their work. I don't know that the latter is a horrible thing, you just have to be careful that you don't go too far.

*ahem* There's nothing wrong with being a tad obsessive about the Beatles' work. Fine, go ruin my threadjack..
#11221

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Were your Beatles senses were tingling and you just had to pop over, amasis? Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

And slight obsessions are just fine and dandy.
#11222

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

I guess so. I was just enjoying my sunday morning and all of a sudden thought: "must check BWW." Fine, go ruin my threadjack.
#11223

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Have any of you ever met Adam? Was he nice?
#11224

Fine, go ruin my threadjack.

Oh my gosh- Emcee has met him SOO many times!

I'm personally too scared to meet him because I always become star-struck and I'm afraid I'll be a babbling idiot.
