1. Don Adams, born Donald James Yarmy, was an actor and comedian best known for his television series "Get Smart", in which he played the titular character, Secret Agent Maxwell Smart. He recorded several comedy albums in the 1960s.

2. Scottish-born soul singer Don Adams recorded "Watts Happening" - an incredible soul album, with equally incredible roots – recorded in the Munich scene of the late 60s! Despite that overseas origin, though, the record's a sock-solid soul effort all the way through – steeped in modes borrowed from Memphis, but carried off with a slightly different feel, thanks to the presence of a fair bit of jazz musicians on the date! Adams' voice is tremendous – a gritty, right on the money soul sound – completely color blind, and beautifully suited to the funky backings in the set. And almost best of all, the songs are mostly original or obscure numbers – not the sort of re-hashed hits that usually came out on Euro soul sides of the 60s – but killer new tracks that are steeped in a great sense of sadness and loss. The original album only saw the light of day briefly – as a project done by producer Hans Wewerka, licensed to Sunset for a very short time – the reissue brings in a few previously unissued tracks.

3. Don Adams is an Argentinean rock band, basing many of their lyrics on melancholic references to '80s memories, they released their self-titled first album in 2004. It was presented live in many festivals, including an appearance next to local band Interama supporting Kings Of Leon and The Strokes at the 2005 BUE Festival in Buenos Aires. In 2007 they released their second LP: Segunda Temporada Completa and they're touring it at the moment.

Don Adams es una banda de rock, fruto de aquella fogosa relacion espacial que tuvieron el challenger y el cometa Halley, alla por febrero de 1986. Sus canciones cuentan historias de personas comunes que todavia comen choripanes sin pan integral. Si bien poseen la electricidad de un relampago con seis cuerdas, todos estos temas bien podrian cantarse bajo la ducha o en un capamento de hasta 50 personas... Para cifras superiores, se recomiendan los hits de Simon & Garfunkel.

2007 - Segundo disco
Veinte años despues del mundial que invento la verdadera sonrisa argentina, la banda empezo a grabar su segundo trabajo, que fue terminado en invierno de 2007 y que alcanzara las orejas del publico en noviembre, con los primeros perfumes de la navidad. Por recomendación de un perro afgano al que ellos escuchan hablar en perfecto ingles, los integrantes de Don Adams mantuvieron en secreto el nombre del album. Sin embargo, este My Space esta en condiciones de revelar que el nuevo material se llama: “Segunda Temporada Completa”.

2004 - Primer disco
El cd “Don Adams” salió a la venta en 2004, con producción de Fernando Moya, dirección artística de Juan Absatz, y los aportes de Sarcófago y el Zorrito Von Quintiero (Ratones Paranoicos) en calidad de invitados. Este trabajo fue presentado en festivales como el Quilmes Rock, Cosquín, el BUE 2005 – junto a The Strokes y Kings of Leon, el programa de Badía en canal 7, La Trastienda, y el teatro n/d Ateneo, donde el grupo consiguió agotar las localidades en dos ocasiones. Cuenta con videoclips que han rotado hasta marearse – Brooke McQueen e Italpark – y durante 2005 el programa “Media falta” de canal 13 tuvo de cortina la canción Nada que perder, también incluída en este primer disco.

Amanda
Don Adams Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Caminando con Amanda
En una tarde cualquiera
De mil nueve ochenta y dos
El amor es un boleto,
Es una luz pasajera
Dije, y se precipitÃ³

No pude disimular

Tengo la Visa lunar
Y esta situaciÃ³n, y esta situaciÃ³n
Y esta situaciÃ³n es ideal

Amanda vamos a Marte
Amanda vamos a dormir
Amanda vamos, Amanda vamos
Amanda vamos a dormir
Vamos a dormir

Transitando con Amanda
Una ruta paralela
Dejamos el tiempo atrÃ¡s
Ella fijÃ³ su mirada en mi estrella

Y se dio cuenta
La Tierra es un planeta mÃ¡s
