My take was self pity, evolving to wanting to be a better man and parent, no matter the cost, which in the end was his life.I watched The Whale. Brendan Fraser carried that. I get the feeling that if anyone else had played it then it wouldn’t have done as well, it was just perfectly cast. Having said that it was a good film but it felt a little bit empty. It’s set entirely in his house, mainly in one room, I could see it being a great play on the stage. I’m still trying to work out what exactly was the message here; redemption, regret, self pity? Worth a watch imo.

It was a spooky experience. One of those performances that get goosebumps. He did Mad World and the songs writer called after the performance and congratulated him. Hard to find a quality original from the performance that catches Simon Cowell's reaction and the rising electricity in the theatre,

Jules, who’s famous for his own cover of the Tears for Fears song, calls Adam the most interesting contestant ‘Idol’ has ever had
Just a cover ? Don't think so ....and it was the performance and audience that set it apart ...Simon rarely ever gives anyone a standing ovation, he did that night...there was just flat out electricity in the audience.....frisson big time.
Why do only some people get ‘skin orgasms’ from listening to music?
When seeing or hearing something poignant, many get the chills. But about one-third of the population doesn’t feel this sensation.theconversation.com
