I know Adam is almost to 1,000.000 albums worldwide but they don't count in America. I know his tour will generate more sales, too. I hope his trip to the UK and Germany is successful as I know it will be. You, go Adam, our beautiful boy.

Long way to Platium. But it's a start. And didn't I read he's going to be on Idol again? Needs to do another song.
