| 1 | * CoveredUp: Music/TimMcGraw covered "When the Stars Go Blue" and released it as a single. Ironically, many people are unaware that Adams had written the song first, but since [=McGraw=] made it famous (it was a chart-topper), many think that [=McGraw=] is the song's original writer. |
| 2 | * FandomEnragingMisconception: |
| 3 | ** Do not confuse him with Music/BryanAdams. This has especially become a problem since Bryan Adams' reputation has only gotten worse over the past few years before reversing in 2019 in light of the [=MeToo=] allegations. |
| 4 | ** Don't say that Tim [=McGraw=] or Bono wrote "When the Stars Go Blue". |
| 5 | * OvershadowedByControversy: While his music has been critically-acclaimed, Adams has become better known for his erratic {{Jerkass}} behaviour, his [[TheAlcoholic hard drinking]], [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and allegedly having]] NoSenseOfHumor[[note]]Stemming from an incident when he ordered security to remove a fan from a concert after the latter jokingly requested him to play a song by the similarly-named Music/BryanAdams.[[/note]]. This reached a peak in 2019 when he was publicly accused by several women, including his ex-wife Music/MandyMoore and folk singer Music/PhoebeBridgers, of abusive behaviour and sexual misconduct. [[RoleEndingMisdemeanour In response]], several radio stations immediately started dropping his work, a scheduled tour was cancelled, and plans to release four albums over the course of 2019 were shelved. While Adams would later resurface with a public apology (thus admitting the abuse and harassment allegations were true) and surprise released two of those planned albums from December 2020 onwards, nearly all major media outlets refused to touch them, indicating that the damage to his reputation still hadn't been undone. |
