I'd already seen the Whole Lotta Love video, but the other two are just awesome. That new arrangement of Mad World must be sooooo much more fun to sing than the usual one. (Also, Longineu is a BAMF.) It's amazing how much more emotion Adam can put into WWFM when he doesn't have to wail through the whole thing. It could possibly go a touch faster, but only because it gets long when you slow it down too much.
As far as IEMs go, having both your ears plugged really affects your ability to hear your own voice, because all of a sudden you're hearing it from the inside of your head instead of the outside. I wouldn't be surprised if it's messing with his ability to tell if his tone is any good, because sometimes what happens is that sounds that seem like they're bouncing around a lot inside your head sound thinner on the outside because less of it is getting out. But honestly I have no idea.
In conclusion, I love that Adam is remixing his own songs even more than I love Kris's tendency to do nothing but mashups in concert.
