Adele probably expected the same response to
21
as she got for
19
in the US. And she would have been genuinely happy with that.
And look at her now

She was right to feel that way, too, especially during the current mess America's pop music is going through.

I would had never thought that when I picked up my copy during the first week that it would sell another 20M+ copies.

AI final is five days later. If she performs there she can do as well she might do 500k+ that week

I think I predicted like 90-120k for the first week.

I remember a friend recommending 19 to me prior to 21's release.
I was like,"This girl deserves to make it big in the US; she makes such beautiful and soulful music."
Then the rest is history.
I'm happy for her, but I really wish One and Only would have been a single.
