From bergengirl88:
"Adam's beautiful, moving song blends perfectly with the emotional choreography of the San Francisco Ballet Company (original work entitled "House of Wendy")."


Thanks to Eva for the tip!

This is my favorite song ever performed by Adam.Don't know why it wasn't on his album (heard it was on the British version.) Hope he will include it on his next album and then do a vidio.. It is haunting, beautiful and could become a classic!

Thanks Eva ! This is also my favorite song sung by Adam! I recently bought the UK FYE just to get this song on a CD and so worth it! I play it many times a day.

How gorgeous to see the ballet perform to this hauntingly beautiful song! I'm blown away by this!

@anon 11:49 yes, I'm also so proud to see Adam's songs spreading to other venues! Way to go, Adam! 2011 is going to be EPIC for Adam!

Wow SF Ballet Co. great!!! This song is so masterful. Hope Adam puts this song in some form on his next album. Have the Japanese version, but not the UK album. It needs a wider release.

So nice to hear Adam's voice with the dancers.
(Unlike SYTYCD where it was another person for his songs) Beautiful!

This is great! I absolutely love this song and the dancing was wonderful!

I wish I could buy this song but I can't find it on iTunes. Am I doing something wrong or is it just not available there?

Anonymous said...

Hate to disappoint you, but they weren't really dancing to Adam's song. It was just clever editing by the person who did the video. (I was disappointed, too).

coloforadam said...

That beautiful voice is here to stay. Wish I knew the story on that song - when and where recorded, who wrote it, when can we SEE him perform it ...... can you just imagine!! No one else would ever do justice to that song. It is quintissential ADAM!!

Anonymous said...

I think I read somewhere that Greg Wells wrote the song (I could be wrong). Wish I could remember the article I read describing Adam recording this song....he was so emotional down on his knees singing his heart out. Adam is amazing...that's all I can say.

Adam sing this with such emotion, somewhere it said he was on his knee when recorded it, very heart broken. Can't let you go can be used in a lot of TV series.

OH Dios !!! lagrimas en mi ojos ante este canto de amor y despedida. Se le hizo justicia a "Cant Let You Go" Himno del Adiós a un gran amor
Interpretación suprema de ADAM de principio a fin.Triste, desgarradora que toca a profundidad la sensibilidad del oyente y lo hace vivir, este inevitable sufrimiento emocional.
Está JOYA de canción debe ser ganadora de un GRAMMY sin lugar a dudas,esperemos que se haga REALIDAD.

Always amazing hearing this song, the best thing Adam has recorded to date and a HUGE waste that RCA doesn't seem to know what to do with it. RELEASE IT as a SINGLE!

Folks, I'm sorry, but if this had actually been chosen by the choreographer, then he/she didn't properly utilize it. I'm not saying that every move has to match every note, but there was almost nothing matching and it was like two separate elements that had nothing to do with each other. So, yes, was "clever editing."

Anonymous said...

What the hell is wrong with RCA?! They would not let Adam release another single from For Your Entertainment; would not let him do another video and would not approve of releasing his acoustic record for sale in stores. Please, for God's sake, release Can't Let You Go as a single!!!!!

Anonymous said...

OT but does anyone have or know the link to a video from last year I think it was at one of the Jingle Balls where Adam was introduced by I think a DJ don't know the man's name, it was the best introduction I had ever heard and I can't find it. I'm starting to think I imagined it, the DJ says "Once in a great while, generations, someone comes along" I can't remember the rest but it was awesome and I can't believe I didn't bookmark it. Please if any of you know what I'm talking about and can direct me to it I will be forever grateful. Thank you.

Does anyone know how to get a hold of RCA and plead our case????

I own a dance studio and I was thinking the same thing! Most of it was not relating to the music, but very nice choreography! Are u a dance teacher or choreographer?
This is one of my favorite songs also! Very haunting!

WTF is wrong with RCA???Don't they listen to the fans? Adam may be one of the best treasures they have and it seems they don't know what to do with him!!!

OMG Amelie thank you, thank you, thank you, I love going back over Adams journey and this was one of the highlights that I just couldn't find. I will be forever grateful. A million times thank you.

Clever job by the poster, the dancing did fit the music well (although I did think the dancers were a bit out of synch with eather other at times..picky I know). Maybe the dance company will see this and use the song for real.
And agree with all the comments about RCA. Adams new CD will not be out for at least 6 months, he needs another single, video and better promotion to keep in the public eye. He doesn't seem that hard a decision to realise that.

The liberation in this year of "Quant Let You Go", wonderful song, must leave the anonymity and SHINE, taking the place it deserves, TOTAL SUCCESS

Amelie and IreneRose, this was from the Kiss concert in MY home town in MA (where I grew up). That radio host is known as Matty in the Morning (Matt Seigel) and that surely was a fantastic intro.

That was the time Monte was with his wife who was giving birth to their twins and was not able to perform (if I remember correctly).

Amelie I was able to google this concert and found it in its entirety at the link below. So again thanks to you I now was able to enjoy another concert of Adam, he is amazing.

AG thank you I didn't know the DJ's name he did such a wonderful job of introducing Adam. Did he ever interview Adam? I would love to see or listen to it if he did.
Yes, I think you are right, TJR played guitar, it was when Lisa was having the twins. I can't believe I kept thinking it was from one of the Jingle Balls from last year.

claude Kelly was one who cowrote this song for the album--it was only on the uk version I ordered online at Amazon. It is spell binding i cant wait for him to sing it live--I hope it happens someday!!!!!!!!!!!RCA are you listening????

Lili said...

Is this for real or the song is just added to the video of the dancers and they are dancing to some other song in reality?

I feel and share your frustration and pain. PLEASE... direct this same passion to "RCA 19". Everyone should. We can agree here, but RCA needs to hear this from as MANY-different people as possible. As SOON as possible.

Irene Rose and Amelie... thank you sooooo much for mentioning, AND for especially Amelie for posting the link to this most incredible introduction. I had tears in my eyes when I first heard it. I can't believe more people don't know about this. I had searched too but couldn't find the video. I got chocked up hearing it again.

I don't believe Matty ever interviewed Adam, but there is footage from before the "Kiss Concert 2010" with another DJ-- Billy Costa who does the 'Top 40 Countdown" (WWFM is #14 for the year!)

When I first read this thread I couldn't believe my eyes and got such a lump in my throat --WHAT an honor, the SF Ballet-- dancing to Adam's magnificent vocals on the amazing "Cant Let You Go"... I'm beyond disappointed to find out it was an edit... =(

However I hope somebody gets the idea to use it for SYTYCD... it would be haunting and magnificent with just 2 dancers... and that incredible vocal performance.

I also bought the UK CD just for this song. It's over produced, but it's still gorgeous. Haunting is a perfect word.

@ IreneRose

I don't know if you saw this as part of the link that featured the whole concert---(Adam was AMAZING and looked gorgeous)

...but here is a link to the interview that I mentioned above before the concert. They got on well and seemed to have a great time.

Thanks Cindy, I forgot about that interview, don't know why I didn't bookmark these videos before.

And I agree with you about CLYG it would be awesome if they used it on SYTYCD, I love that show, I think the dancers are amazing.

On that note I will say good night its late and I will go to sleep happy that I found these links thanks to Amelie, AG and Cindy.

Thanks Amelia for all the voting links, I accidently erased some of them & been searching for it. The second link for Best Male Pop Vocal dosn't work.
Thanks Eva, love this song. Adam did mention it would be very difficult to sing it live.

THIS SONG TAKES MY BREATH AWAY EVERY TIME I HEAR IT! AS THOUGH I NEVER HEARD IT BEFORE! WOW! WHAT A TALENT. PHENOMENAL.

Anonymous said...

There is no justice in the music industry if Adam is not invited to sing this song at an awards show. I bet money that "time for miracles" would top the charts for 8 months and I still have no idea what happened. This heartbreaking song is the best piece of music I've listened to in my life. Adam learned to stick to planned choreography and he's still being "punished" for his enthusiastic interpretation of FYE. Having the SF Ballet perform with him for a worldwide audience is a MUST. I get physically sick thinking about the fact he's sold less than one million albums in comparison to Kelly Clarkson's 14 million.

This is quite a bit after this post was created at the beginning of the year, but to answer CT's post from January 1st at 1:04pm, what he/she was remembering was a tweet by Greg Wells after someone tweeted him how much they loved CLYG:

@greg_wells: Thanks for the nice words re: “Can’t Let You Go”. Adam was literally on his knees singing this vocal in the studio, killing it as usual.
