Oh no, I get what you were saying. While I kinda do agree with the main points of their comment, the way they said it was kinda creepy, OTT, and obsessive. But hey, that’s fandom. And Ross, I know who Mickey Rooney is. I am not *completely* ignorant of everything before my time.

Are you being sarcastic or serious? Because I think @1940 he really was.

It all sounds the same, you know? Hell, I can’t even write such flowery things about Jon Hamm.

I do not think he’s a dancer.

He’s talented as a singer or performer, I just don’t think it’s accurate to suggest he has an astounding array of talents. That’s more like a Mickey Rooney, to me. (Before your time. Acted in comedy and drama, sang, danced, did impressions, wrote songs, played instruments, etc.)

Anyhow, I was just nitpicking at the comment, not Adam.

I didn’t think so. I guess it’s possible.

He has a glorious counter-tenor voice with incredible stage instincts. You do have to worry if he’s going to blow out that beautiful instrument with his rock singing. However, he’s not new at singing rock or blues. May have even sung some jazz. He has an incredible sense of rhythm. He’s very quick, funny, and understands camp (love his facial expressions). He is also a fabulous dancer with amazing agility, flexibility, gracefulness, and body awarness. My guess is, given the opportunity, he is quite good at acting. And, he’s very beautiful. [...] Adam’s only “problem” may be how to pick what to do with such an astounding array of talents, and thus possibilities, to choose from. I’ve never seen or heard anything like him, ever.

I really hate these OTT “reviews” in the comments section, complete with trite expressions.

I think they were probably referring to the astounding array of genres he can sing? He can also *presumably* c) act since he was doing that for a while.

One of the commenters says:

Okay, he can, a) sing, b) dance? A little. I’m not astounded by this array of talents.
