Thank you Adam for this video. My best friend k*lled herself yesterday morning and I’ve been feeling like I’m going insane. I’m watching your videos to feel somewhat normal. I love you Adam 💜
I am so, so sorry for your loss. There's nothing I can say as a stranger on the Internet that could even come close to eloquently convey how sorry I am. Please take care of yourself ❤
I saw you and Neave talking about grief on your last podcast. I appreciate that you acknowledged your lack of experience in the area not having lost a close family member. I will say though that you talked about a lot of stages of grief spot on. Much more accurate to reality than the textbook discussions of grief. It all really resonated with me but man was it a tough time (still is) for me. Recently, I've been struggling a lot with grief and the podcast came out on a particularly hard day. I wanted to write something then but it was too intense at that time. I lost my brother closest in age to me roughly 2 and a half years ago and for people to push others to move on has always been heartless to me but now experiencing it, I can't even imagine how someone could say that. My grief hasn't subsided. There are plenty of happy days and happy moments in even sad days but the happiness is never quite full. I enjoy life but it feels like I'm in grayscale now. Each year has had its own feelings and phases of grief especially losing him so unexpectedly... But I guess it wasn't fully unexpected 😢 I always feared that I would get the call but when it became real my whole world flipped upside down. This year has been particularly tough because I turned 33 in October. A birthday I have been dreading all year since my last birthday. I am officially a year older than my older brother will ever be. It is A LOT and hard to talk about but I really appreciate you providing the space for others to grieve as a group. I may have poured into my feelings a bit too much in this comment but it's real and it's pure and a lot less intense than it would have been the other day. To sum that all up though I appreciate you and the conversation and the acknowledgement today that the holidays can be an extremely hard time for people.
My deepest condolences. I lost a close friend earlier this year and it was very hard. I cannot imagine what you are going through. I don’t think you poured too much of your feelings here, we all have to let our feelings out at times. *hug*
My disability was finally approved after almost 5 years and this is the first year I get to purchase presents for my family 😭😭 car troubles abound but we will get through!!
Very happy for you fam! My family member is trying to get approved for disability and I never knew how long and arduous the process was. Very happy it worked out for you fam ❤
this video made me sob i didn’t know how much i needed to be told to be easy on myself you said that and i instantly started tearing up thank you for being such a safe place on youtube i appreciate you so much
I'm so glad I stan such lovely people, it creates such a good evironment, everyone here is so caring. You have this ability Adam to really uplift us when things are rough. I found out someone in my family has cancer the same day Liam Payne died, so the last month has been pretty rough. This video really has uplifted me this morning❤ I've been reading some of these comments, sending love and thoughts to anyone who lost anyone recently. While it may feel the rest of the world is "moving on", in time, you will heal. A tiny bit every day❤❤❤ Love this community❤
The only family I’m in contact with is my sister and her kids, but it doesn’t bother me anymore. I’ve done a lot of healing and now I’m excited for the holidays compared to when I was younger. Like you, I created my own traditions and I’ve been listening to Christmas music too. This Christmas will be really special because not only did I avoid homelessness but I’m moving to Los Angeles on Thanksgiving! My favorite song is Happy Holidays/Its the Holiday Season by Andy Williams, it’s such a bop and makes me want to sing and dance!
16:26 Totally listen to anything Frank Sinatra Christmas related! 10/10 experience. Then again Frank Sinatra’s music just sends me into an out of body experience in a good way…
The holidays always get me down, just like everyone else. Before my father passed away a few years ago, he would always say every holiday was like the same. Same people (maybe less every year, too), same place, same food. Well he was right- there will be less people since he’s not here. But my older cousin just had her first baby and this will be her first Christmas. I was so used to less people each year and I can’t wait to love my little cousin so much and have Christmas with her! ♥️ It’s very special when people are added to the party.
PLEASE COME TO CANADA CANADAM, our northern muckers are cold and we need a diva to rescue us (also OMG I want an autograph :')) happy healing!! all the best
The serotonin release that comes from listening to classic oldie Christmas music is next level 🥰 I adore Bing Crosby and his version of “Do You Hear What I Hear” ❤
This is my first thanksgiving and Christmas without my grandma. She was the only person who didn't desert me when i came out, the only family member i voluntarily came out to. Missing her still feels like a hole in my heart
I'm in Australia so I cannot attend the shows but sending all the love and support and I hope you, your family and everyone attending have a fantastic time. Maybe I'll catch the next one! 😉
ty for talking abt this it’s smth that’s always on my mind that I don’t hear ppl talk about enough it’s very relatable esp as someone who’s experienced loss recently
The holidays being very happy and very sad for some is so true. I used to be very happy about the holidays but in recent years I can’t help but feel severely depressed. My grandparents were the only people I had who came together and made the holidays what they were and I lost both of them to cancer. My grandma I lost right around the holidays this year 3 weeks ago and I still can’t believe I won’t see her this holiday season. It crushes me not having anymore family around me who cares enough they’re practically strangers now. Only 20 and life already feels more lonely than it should.
Last Christmas by Wham! is always a classic to me, even if it gets unnecessary hate !! Also, my papa one Christmas Eve took a ladder up to the roof of the house and walked around and rang a bell. Another Christmas eve he dressed up as Santa and ran across the yard, and when he came back inside we told he him had JUST missed Santa 😭😭 I seriously love Christmas, it always puts me in a good mood.
Its been three years since my best friend whispering wind bear spirit life was taken. she was shot and killed trying to help a friend. then a week later my cousin killed himself, then 3 months after that my other friend killed herself a week after I had talked to her. 2022 was a hard year. This year I've been trying to help my brother with his loss of his partner who died on there vacation out of the blue. He was 2 years older than me 47. So i've been trying to help him. But we all definitely have a hard time during this year. Its not always peaches and cream. I wish it was. I thank you for the video and your channel. It has been a way to get lost for a while. I also still do crafts and playing the sims 4 to help me with my own issues. after there death.
I love that you talk aout grief so openly i just lost my mom from stage four cancer earlier this year and a few months ago my grandma from lung cancer and it was a push to start going to therapy, working through it is very difficult. Never take family for granted and make memories during this season
This year is the first Christmas without my grandfather and my mother, my grandad died on August 25th and my mother died November 9th, I never had a good relationship with my mother, I rarely spoke to her but y'know, she's still my mother and I had good times with her so it feels weird knowing I won't see so many obnoxious decorations this year lol
I’m sorry for your loss; remember to keep breathing take it second by second. This will be my second Christmas since I lost my husband. Last year I couldn’t even get out of bed this year I just hope to keep breathing myself.
Thank you for sharing and always being so open. My grandma was the fire of our family, and when she passed its like the world turned grey. But as my kids have started growing, I've realized that even though she is gone... Her memories and everything she taught me still lives in my heart. I can pass that onto my kids. I've started making things to pass down as well, and it fills me with joy. I have no friends, and like i mentioned before, most of my family is still stuck in limbo. I tried to pull them out, but they would rather pull me back down than help me get them out.
Christmas has always been hard for me and my family. A lot of bad things have happened to me during christmas time years ago and I feel like I never truly processed it. I feel like this year has been tough and currently struggling with life but your videos definitely helped me out so much. But my friends help me so much too as well started to make our own holiday traditions like going to big bear for a weekend and going to Disneyland. P.S I went to Disneyland last week and I was on soaring around I couldn’t help but laugh at the story you told with Neavie on the podcast.
I wish you would to Boston, or Conn. Love love to see you & maybe meet your sweet self . Been here since the beginning ... 🥰❣️💖❣️I am excited , you are doing your London & Ireland shows for you , it will be epic!🎉
I love doing adventcalendars for people! My boyfriend and I are making ones for each other and also my mum and I (she always asks me if I´m finally too old for that every year and so far at 22 I dont think I´m too old lol).
I just got out of a mental health institution and missed my favorite holiday (Halloween). I reached out and called the 988 number so I could have someone to talk to about my dark thoughts and they put me on a 5150 (I was detained for about a week in a hospital): no one ever told me about a (patient’s advocate ) and once I did Find out that that was a thing, I called the number and it said it was no longer in service…some of the male nurses were hitting on me (I was in a super fragile mental state btw). I was also roommates with other patients who would call me a whore and accused me of sleeping with the nurses. This really messed me up as I have a history of sexual abuse. Overall it was a rough year and watching your videos has helped me so much. Just wanted to let you know. Thank you
I would decorate a little and just leave it up like lights or something fun you can leave up year-round thats what i do i travel alot to with alot of expos and shows that i do but i still have my Christmas lights up year-round.
Thank you for always having these real chats with us, Adam. I hate using the word “trauma” nowadays bc people ran that word into the ground to the point it lost meaning.. BUT.. I genuinely have a lot of trauma from growing up in an abusive environment and bc of that the holidays are very triggering. I hate this time of year with a burning passion, but deep down there is a desire to love it but it’s so hard. I always dreamt of having a happy family that genuinely loves each other & is excited to celebrate. A lot has changed in my family over the years tho but they pretend like they never treated me like shit and that I HAVE TO be around them or want anything to do with them when in reality I don’t. I always told myself I’m just a miserable person who can’t let the past go when in reality I’m just human that was denied love/care that desperately craves it now. I don’t necessarily hate my family I’m just over them and don’t wanna deal with them anymore. I wanna move on with my life and do what I wanna do how I wanna do things. I pray hope and wish that next year I’m happy & healthy, doing my own thing and can actually love the holidays. Sending love to those that need it. ♥️🫂💋
my favorite xmas music is the vince guaraldi charlie brown album. I haven’t practiced piano since high school, but linus and lucy was one of my favorite things to play *edit: holy shit the guinness thing is too real 😭 I grew up in new england and my parents always kept IPAs in the house. it’s the reason I didn’t start drinking until I was like 22, because they tasted SO nasty and I was convinced all alcohol was like that lmaooo
thank you for this video. my husband is deployed right now for the first time and won’t be home for any of the holidays. i’m so scared and anxious. i try to be grateful everyday that i know where he is but it can be hard. hearing someone say “this will pass” was the refreshing words i needed.
My dad was diagnosed with aggressive brain cancer this year. Surgery, chemo, radiation, and surgery AGAIN has been so rough. I appreciate you posting this video. I'm hoping and praying that we can get through the holidays joyfully and peacefully.❤
Adam is signing headshots and going on tour. Trisha is thriving and doing live shows. I know she who shall not be named is seething and I love it. I’m glad karma is doing its job.
In primary school I found out santa wasn’t real & was trying to convince my friends so said he was real but died & said my nan has the newspaper from when he died. lol
i love you adam. watching your videos helps me feel so much less alone. this holiday season is super hard. it usually is pretty difficult but i lost my dog this year in September and this is gonna be the first holiday season without her and i still just don’t know how to be happy without her here..
I always do advent calendars!! A couple weeks ago my dad surprised me w one that’s expensive chocolate it’s not one of the thin cheap ones and I am so excited to start it!!!!😂😂❤❤
16:38 “as long as there’s christmas” from beauty and the beast enchanted christmas is a favorite. “last christmas” and “hard candy christmas” as well :) “o helga natt” (i think) is the norwegian version of oh holy night and there’s a very beautiful version ill have to find
I'm glad I use my time to watch you -- it's rare for someone to be so genuine and mature yet so young. This video made me think about this time since it's my first year as an adult now. I really appreciate it -- Ngā mihi nui e hoa
During my adult life, I haven’t been the best christmas person… its a time of year that makes me feel lonely. I have a small family and well I am single (39f) so I don’t feel like celebrating… I get very emotional. Adam you are so wise beyond your years, so caring and loving. I really see you as a little brother! God, you are so much fun! A trip with you would be amazing! Don’t let time, age or situations change your heart and soul!!!
not celebrating or even going home this year, but it does bring me some joy to hear others are excited for it all, and to know not everyones family is so bad half of it refuses to celebrate lol
Seeing how Adam has grown, and has adjusted to becoming an adult, has actually made me feel better about becoming one myself. It may sound stupid, and I am particularly fine with that. This Christmas will be my last one as a child... Next year will be my last year as a minor, then I'll be a grown-up over night, it's... It's a lot for me. Thank you for the video Adam, it really did warm my heart, I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your loved one's.
I truly only come on youtube to watch you and will be attending the show in Chicago. You are so relatable to me as we are the same age . I just got my own apartment for the first time in my life with my dog and two cats :)) you really are the friend we all need adam and the community we have here is so amazing ❤
I am so happy for you Adam! Grateful that I discovered your channels on RUclips, via watching Peter Monn. I’m older than both of you, hale from America and I guess I have kind of a ‘motherly cheerleader’ way of looking at your hard work, and love how you get the power of paying forward. Thank you for your encouraging words here, right back at you! Holding much respect and sending prayers. Enjoy the tour! 🌏👍💫
This is such a comforting video, my dad just got diagnosed with liver cancer and grandma broke her hip literally today, so I have to take care of them both. Thank you for this video Adam ❤
I missed my entire summer due to major ankle surgery. This wintery time is definitely a little rough, especially since I can’t walk like I did before and I’m scared to walk in the dark (now it’s getting dark at 4pm here. Bruh😭) But honestly, I’m just happy enough to be up and walking again so I’m ok with being a hermit. The one thing that really gets me though is most of my friends don’t seem to understand that like, I feel awkward about my mobility and being gone for so long I feel bad about not having checked in properly with them. I’ve seen one friend outside of work since I got back home and I’ve been home a month already😭
my fave like "old" christmas song is have yourself a merry little christmas and my fave "new" christmas song is drummer boy by justin beiber solely for the busta rhymes feature or winter wonderland/here comes santa claus with snoop dogg and anna kendrick from pitch perfect 2😌😌
Adam, I think what sets you apart from the rest is your commitment with filming these quick turnaround videos and communicating with your community. (That was a mouthful) 😂 I think your shows are going to be a hit! Keep being you 😉
Technically, winter starts on Dec 20 or 21 here in the US. Sorry I missed your other video, but hugs and love to you❤❤❤ Congrats on your tour dates! 🎄😘
Thank you for talking about how Christmas is hard for some people. I always spend Christmas alone now, and feels quite isolating because of disability etc. Hoping it will be nice enough weather for a walk. I like a good depressing Christmas song- River by Joni Mitchell
Thank you for your powerful words Adam! You are so right about holidays and winter being hard for many. Myself included.. happy holidays to you and your loved ones ❤
Every year I love September through the beginning of November especially Halloween and my son's birthday! But then boom its like Christmas overnight every year they start it earlier!
Randomly thinking about Egyptian Licorice tea bc adam said to make your favorite drink. Im not home but as soon as i am i am making that tea. Thank you, Adam. Also, if you like black licorice flavor and haven't tried a licorice tea what are you doing?
Waiting for you to come to New Haven CT my partner has commented on so many of your videos and id love to bring him to your show he’d probably cry/faint. Also New Haven has some good pizza if that helps👀🩵
I rarely ever comment but I just want you to know that you genuinely make me feel better. i have Irish heritage and you really remind me of myself. I am not doing well after I got assaulted by my ex and I just hope everyone is keeping their head above water even if im not.
this is nice to hear and i wish everyone the best for the rest of the year. struggling alone is so so hard and im having to experience that now and i feel so much empathy for everyone who’s going through the same im freshly 18 and having to save up for a place so i have a place to live even though job searching is so so hard right now me and my family has almost no money and cant pay for basic necessities. things do get better though even if it doesn’t seem like it there’s things to look forward to and there are people who will love you even if you’re at rock bottom those are the people to keep around 🖤 if you feel alone just know that you’re loved and you matter, things do get better

My disability was finally approved after almost 5 years and this is the first year I get to purchase presents for my family 😭😭 car troubles abound but we will get through!!
So happy for you! Enjoy a well deserved break
This comment made me tear up! That is amazing
Oh my gosh, I’m so happy for you! It took 2.5 years for me, so I at least partially understand.
Very happy for you fam! My family member is trying to get approved for disability and I never knew how long and arduous the process was. Very happy it worked out for you fam ❤
That's amazing! I'm in the middle of trying to get approved. I feel a little dread hearing how long it took but still so happy for you🙏

I found out someone in my family has cancer the same day Liam Payne died, so the last month has been pretty rough. This video really has uplifted me this morning❤
I've been reading some of these comments, sending love and thoughts to anyone who lost anyone recently. While it may feel the rest of the world is "moving on", in time, you will heal. A tiny bit every day❤❤❤
Love this community❤
Nail colour is GLORIOUS, what is it? Thank you for speaking for those of us who struggle this time of year.
Me at my big age trying not to cry. Be kind to yourselves, guys. Sending you guys hugs and love.
The only family I’m in contact with is my sister and her kids, but it doesn’t bother me anymore. I’ve done a lot of healing and now I’m excited for the holidays compared to when I was younger. Like you, I created my own traditions and I’ve been listening to Christmas music too.

PLEASE COME TO CANADA CANADAM, our northern muckers are cold and we need a diva to rescue us (also OMG I want an autograph :'))
happy healing!! all the best
The serotonin release that comes from listening to classic oldie Christmas music is next level 🥰 I adore Bing Crosby and his version of “Do You Hear What I Hear” ❤
Omg his and David Bowie’s peace on earth is my all time favorites Christmas song ever.
this video made me so emotional, thanks for this push back into reality adam. i love these kind of videos, theyre very comforting.
I NEED to see you in Nashville, please comeeeee we don’t ever get people coming here 😭
Just had my first baby this year and I know the holidays will be better this time ❤️💚
SAW THE TITLE AND CAME HERE SO FAST. CANT WAIT FOR THE LA SHOW 💜💜
im locked tf in!!!
Tripped over my feet running to clicking on this
Love the vibes of signing and talking about Christmas and what not. 🎉🎉 So excited for you that you get to go on tour
One of my favourite Xmas songs is, Do You Know It’s Christmas Time from band aid, Christmas magic by Perrie, and Christmas Tree Farm by Taylor Swift
This is my first thanksgiving and Christmas without my grandma. She was the only person who didn't desert me when i came out, the only family member i voluntarily came out to. Missing her still feels like a hole in my heart
I'm in Australia so I cannot attend the shows but sending all the love and support and I hope you, your family and everyone attending have a fantastic time. Maybe I'll catch the next one! 😉
sameeee
cries in american who cant go to any of the current tour dates 😭 hoping you come to somewhere closer to cinci 💜💜
Right there in the same boat, I would love if he could come to Cincinnati!
Same! I hope he goes to Columbus or Cincinnati, just another Midwest spot 😭
@ omg I love your username and pic!
Aight can't risk that shit
I love Pentatonix’s version of Oh Come, All Ye Faithful and their original Christmas ones as well.
ty for talking abt this it’s smth that’s always on my mind that I don’t hear ppl talk about enough it’s very relatable esp as someone who’s experienced loss recently
ahhh i wish i could see you live 🥹🥹 hope you all have so much fun!! you should come to poland some time!
7:00 this community that you built is so strong. im so happy to be apart of it. we’re all so happy to have you as well!
18:26 You should see if Tony’s has advent calendars since we just learned they’re leading in ethical production ❤
The holidays being very happy and very sad for some is so true. I used to be very happy about the holidays but in recent years I can’t help but feel severely depressed. My grandparents were the only people I had who came together and made the holidays what they were and I lost both of them to cancer. My grandma I lost right around the holidays this year 3 weeks ago and I still can’t believe I won’t see her this holiday season.

@LilyPi-m1m thank you means alot ♥️
I love that you talk aout grief so openly i just lost my mom from stage four cancer earlier this year and a few months ago my grandma from lung cancer and it was a push to start going to therapy, working through it is very difficult. Never take family for granted and make memories during this season
One of my favorite Christmas songs right now is “Santa doesn’t know you like I do” by Sabrina Carpenter. It’s a bop 🩷
Yes!! It’s my current favorite too
This year is the first Christmas without my grandfather and my mother, my grandad died on August 25th and my mother died November 9th, I never had a good relationship with my mother, I rarely spoke to her but y'know, she's still my mother and I had good times with her so it feels weird knowing I won't see so many obnoxious decorations this year lol
I’m sorry for your loss; remember to keep breathing take it second by second. This will be my second Christmas since I lost my husband. Last year I couldn’t even get out of bed this year I just hope to keep breathing myself.
Thank you for sharing and always being so open. My grandma was the fire of our family, and when she passed its like the world turned grey.

so precious 💜
ITALYYYYY ITALYYYYY plsssss even if i’m the only one i WILL be there 😭😭😭
Thank you Adam 💚💜 Just... Thank you !!!! 10:23
Christmas has always been hard for me and my family. A lot of bad things have happened to me during christmas time years ago and I feel like I never truly processed it.

I love doing adventcalendars for people! My boyfriend and I are making ones for each other and also my mum and I (she always asks me if I´m finally too old for that every year and so far at 22 I dont think I´m too old lol).
Hope to see you come to Canada some day!!
My favourite Xmas song is "Wonderful Christmastime" by Paul McCartney.
Also, you're making me want an advent calendar, too.
Love you Adam! You are an amazing person❤ thank you for all you do! Much love from illinois USA
WE LOVE YOU MOTHER MUCKERRRR 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

I was also roommates with other patients who would call me a whore and accused me of sleeping with the nurses. This really messed me up as I have a history of sexual abuse. Overall it was a rough year and watching your videos has helped me so much. Just wanted to let you know. Thank you
I would decorate a little and just leave it up like lights or something fun you can leave up year-round thats what i do i travel alot to with alot of expos and shows that i do but i still have my Christmas lights up year-round.
Thank you for always having these real chats with us, Adam. I hate using the word “trauma” nowadays bc people ran that word into the ground to the point it lost meaning.. BUT.. I genuinely have a lot of trauma from growing up in an abusive environment and bc of that the holidays are very triggering. I hate this time of year with a burning passion, but deep down there is a desire to love it but it’s so hard. I always dreamt of having a happy family that genuinely loves each other & is excited to celebrate. A lot has changed in my family over the years tho but they pretend like they never treated me like shit and that I HAVE TO be around them or want anything to do with them when in reality I don’t. I always told myself I’m just a miserable person who can’t let the past go when in reality I’m just human that was denied love/care that desperately craves it now. I don’t necessarily hate my family I’m just over them and don’t wanna deal with them anymore. I wanna move on with my life and do what I wanna do how I wanna do things. I pray hope and wish that next year I’m happy & healthy, doing my own thing and can actually love the holidays. Sending love to those that need it. ♥️🫂💋
my favorite xmas music is the vince guaraldi charlie brown album. I haven’t practiced piano since high school, but linus and lucy was one of my favorite things to play
*edit: holy shit the guinness thing is too real 😭 I grew up in new england and my parents always kept IPAs in the house. it’s the reason I didn’t start drinking until I was like 22, because they tasted SO nasty and I was convinced all alcohol was like that lmaooo
thank you for this video. my husband is deployed right now for the first time and won’t be home for any of the holidays. i’m so scared and anxious. i try to be grateful everyday that i know where he is but it can be hard. hearing someone say “this will pass” was the refreshing words i needed.
Please do a show in Charleston, South Carolina! It would be so awesome to meet you 😄
My dad was diagnosed with aggressive brain cancer this year. Surgery, chemo, radiation, and surgery AGAIN has been so rough. I appreciate you posting this video. I'm hoping and praying that we can get through the holidays joyfully and peacefully.❤
This was delightfully parasocial in a healthy example and I love it. So glad I subscribed this year
Adam is signing headshots and going on tour. Trisha is thriving and doing live shows. I know she who shall not be named is seething and I love it. I’m glad karma is doing its job.
Adam please come to the Netherlands with your tour❤
In primary school I found out santa wasn’t real & was trying to convince my friends so said he was real but died & said my nan has the newspaper from when he died. lol
i love you adam. watching your videos helps me feel so much less alone. this holiday season is super hard. it usually is pretty difficult but i lost my dog this year in September and this is gonna be the first holiday season without her and i still just don’t know how to be happy without her here..
I’m so upset I’m seeing Sabrina carpenter that night 😢I’ll be there in spirit
I always do advent calendars!! A couple weeks ago my dad surprised me w one that’s expensive chocolate it’s not one of the thin cheap ones and I am so excited to start it!!!!😂😂❤❤
16:38 “as long as there’s christmas” from beauty and the beast enchanted christmas is a favorite. “last christmas” and “hard candy christmas” as well :)
“o helga natt” (i think) is the norwegian version of oh holy night and there’s a very beautiful version ill have to find
I'm glad I use my time to watch you -- it's rare for someone to be so genuine and mature yet so young. This video made me think about this time since it's my first year as an adult now. I really appreciate it -- Ngā mihi nui e hoa
During my adult life, I haven’t been the best christmas person… its a time of year that makes me feel lonely. I have a small family and well I am single (39f) so I don’t feel like celebrating… I get very emotional. Adam you are so wise beyond your years, so caring and loving. I really see you as a little brother! God, you are so much fun! A trip with you would be amazing! Don’t let time, age or situations change your heart and soul!!!
not celebrating or even going home this year, but it does bring me some joy to hear others are excited for it all, and to know not everyones family is so bad half of it refuses to celebrate lol
I am beyond excited for the Seattle show!’
You really go above and beyond for your Muckers🩷
Seeing how Adam has grown, and has adjusted to becoming an adult, has actually made me feel better about becoming one myself. It may sound stupid, and I am particularly fine with that. This Christmas will be my last one as a child... Next year will be my last year as a minor, then I'll be a grown-up over night, it's... It's a lot for me. Thank you for the video Adam, it really did warm my heart, I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your loved one's.
We have snow on the ground here in WV, USA! If that isn't "winter" idk what is!
I truly only come on youtube to watch you and will be attending the show in Chicago. You are so relatable to me as we are the same age . I just got my own apartment for the first time in my life with my dog and two cats :)) you really are the friend we all need adam and the community we have here is so amazing ❤
mama come to florida for the love of god
I am so happy for you Adam! Grateful that I discovered your channels on RUclips, via watching Peter Monn. I’m older than both of you, hale from America and I guess I have kind of a ‘motherly cheerleader’ way of looking at your hard work, and love how you get the power of paying forward. Thank you for your encouraging words here, right back at you! Holding much respect and sending prayers. Enjoy the tour! 🌏👍💫
This is such a comforting video, my dad just got diagnosed with liver cancer and grandma broke her hip literally today, so I have to take care of them both. Thank you for this video Adam ❤
So much respect for you talking about these topics and encouraging your community to lift each other up. Sending love to everyone right now!
Hope the recovery is going well mother mucker!
You should come to Cymru
I missed my entire summer due to major ankle surgery. This wintery time is definitely a little rough, especially since I can’t walk like I did before and I’m scared to walk in the dark (now it’s getting dark at 4pm here. Bruh😭)
But honestly, I’m just happy enough to be up and walking again so I’m ok with being a hermit.
The one thing that really gets me though is most of my friends don’t seem to understand that like, I feel awkward about my mobility and being gone for so long I feel bad about not having checked in properly with them. I’ve seen one friend outside of work since I got back home and I’ve been home a month already😭
If you ever come to Sweden I will be there
I love Christmas!! I love the old songs.
So many congratulations on your show in London and especially in Ireland
💔 can’t make it down to london but so happy your still doing tours
17:32 OMG ME TOO
my fave like "old" christmas song is have yourself a merry little christmas and my fave "new" christmas song is drummer boy by justin beiber solely for the busta rhymes feature or winter wonderland/here comes santa claus with snoop dogg and anna kendrick from pitch perfect 2😌😌
never clicked something faster
Adam, I think what sets you apart from the rest is your commitment with filming these quick turnaround videos and communicating with your community. (That was a mouthful) 😂 I think your shows are going to be a hit! Keep being you 😉
Technically, winter starts on Dec 20 or 21 here in the US. Sorry I missed your other video, but hugs and love to you❤❤❤ Congrats on your tour dates! 🎄😘
You are my #1 favorite RUclipsr and I’m coming to the Dallas show on February 25th🤩🤩🤩
Minneapolis or St. Paul pllleassseeeee MN
Those post cards are so fun!
hi adammmm so proud of you for this tour !!!
Thank you for talking about how Christmas is hard for some people. I always spend Christmas alone now, and feels quite isolating because of disability etc. Hoping it will be nice enough weather for a walk.
I like a good depressing Christmas song- River by Joni Mitchell
ADAM IM GOING TO DUBLIN IM SO EXCITED
Im so mad that i can't go to any of your shows anywhere 😭💔
Never been so early! Wish I could see you, please come to North Carolina area. So excited for you!
Thank you for your powerful words Adam! You are so right about holidays and winter being hard for many. Myself included.. happy holidays to you and your loved ones ❤
Every year I love September through the beginning of November especially Halloween and my son's birthday! But then boom its like Christmas overnight every year they start it earlier!
Randomly thinking about Egyptian Licorice tea bc adam said to make your favorite drink. Im not home but as soon as i am i am making that tea. Thank you, Adam. Also, if you like black licorice flavor and haven't tried a licorice tea what are you doing?
Waiting for you to come to New Haven CT my partner has commented on so many of your videos and id love to bring him to your show he’d probably cry/faint. Also New Haven has some good pizza if that helps👀🩵
I rarely ever comment but I just want you to know that you genuinely make me feel better. i have Irish heritage and you really remind me of myself. I am not doing well after I got assaulted by my ex and I just hope everyone is keeping their head above water even if im not.
this is nice to hear and i wish everyone the best for the rest of the year. struggling alone is so so hard and im having to experience that now and i feel so much empathy for everyone who’s going through the same im freshly 18 and having to save up for a place so i have a place to live even though job searching is so so hard right now me and my family has almost no money and cant pay for basic necessities. things do get better though even if it doesn’t seem like it there’s things to look forward to and there are people who will love you even if you’re at rock bottom those are the people to keep around 🖤 if you feel alone just know that you’re loved and you matter, things do get better
