Well. I don't understand why WWFM was playing behing them. I guess if I understood the language maybe there was a connection between WWFM and the words of the rap.
Any fans in Greece that clarify this?
I'm sorry but they just murdered a great song‼ This just made me feel even worse... I shouldn't have opened it‼ :(( *dont shoot me*
I kinda liked it. Bite me. ;)

Don't tempt me ;)
This is weird but cool
hmm,I don't like rap but I appreciated their harmony and loved the background song.
I listen to some rap music and I like this a lot.
Pretty cool they incorporated his song into their performance. I would love to know what they were rapping - to understand the connection. I'm certain there was one!!! Why else would they use this song.
I can't stand rap, but actually thought that was OK, at least it was a bit tuneful, maybe Rap sounds better when not in English?

I also dislike rap, but I kinda of liked it. I mean Adam was playing after all! Oh Adam, what have you done to me?

It's all Greek to me, but I'll bet they were rapping the lyrics of the actual song. Can someone clarify that for us?

daydreamin - That picture is so cute!! But I think I have seen it somewhere before....I love it.
It makes me hungry for a Greek Wrap!
(sorry) hehe
This is like one of Sting's song that is used as background in a rap style. Always the original songs are way better to listen to, but having it mixed with a different style of music is very entertaining. Even though, I couldn't understand what they were saying in this video I found it fun to watch and listen to. Good international exposure for Adam. Wished a Greek fan could translate this for us.
Off topic, but I just saw Adam on Ru Pauls Drag Race while they did a part on Raja. It was an older video that Sutan filmed while on tour...

I loved it! Great to see that Adam's song inspires other singers and rappers. WWFM is a worldwide hit, no doubt about it now. Just hope that the Grammys will recognize this. But, B. Mars' song seems to be the one being pushed by the US media these days. ):
Adam's way behind on "Who is your favorite"American Idol" alum? at http://omg.yahoo.com/blog/whonew/idol chatter/19?ne. Please vote! He only has 8% of the vote. Kinda embarrassing. Thanks.
As a rhythmic background, the song fit surprisingly well! It does have a good beat, one just doesn't think it when listening Adam sing..
Hmmm, not feelin' it - and I do like rap. However, am curious if that guy on the left was wearing a skirt over his pants? Video was kinda "smudgey", so it was hard to tell. :)

@Amelie thanks for your suggestion about watching MJs recorded vidoes of Simon Cowell's interview on Oprah's network, OWN. It was very insightful.
Check this link and watch the four videos guys:

I am Greek and i originally posted this on my twitter account.Here are some words they're saying : Tell me what do you want me to do again, whatever i do that empty bottle wont be filled again, whatever i did you smashed it again, how much can i back down, i cant find your thousand faces any more, i'm sick of your needs, i am who i am if you dont like it go away. Tell me what to do that i havent already done, i killed every spirit in me to give it to you, the most precious things for you,tell me what do you want from me, you dont care about my dreams and everything seem suspicious to you, i am who i am if you dont like it you'll live in nothing.
7:06, Thank you for the translation. Great lyrics.
Don't always like rap, but thought this was way cool. Is X Factor in every County in the World these days? and Is Cowell connected. Just wondering? Adam is taking Greece and the world also.
I liked it. I thought it worked, especially in lieu of 7:06's translation (thanks btw). But whatevs - see only the upside to AML's tracks being sampled (isn't that what this is called - "sampling" ??)
Thanks for Cowell links - will have to check that out later

Yes, I think this is called sampling. Reminded me of Jay-Z's Wishing on a Star. I like the original Rose Royce's Wishing on a Star from the disco era.
In my opinion, the rappers appreciate the original song, if they use it in their version.
