1. Adele is THE it-girl of Music industry. Being promoted as today's legend and Dusty Springfield 2.0, she has more than enough hype for "Skyfall." Just like Fearless/Speak Now
2. It's James Bond. Enough said.
3. Joanne and Taylor are no longer 'untouchable' with Adele completing the '10s trinity now.

I ve always seen Adele as Norah Jones, (I LOVE Norah Jones btw) = a monster seller, a talented artist & songwriter praised by public & critics but she doesn t have the little spark that a true superstar should have, this little spark will make the difference in the long run, bookmark my words

It's classic Bond soundtrack. It has strings, big vocals, and nice lyrics.

The "Skyfall" preview. For this is the end.

wait!! did the preview of adele's song come out or something???

Its very good and right up the Academy's ally but I still prefer Safe and Sound because it was unpredictable and different for Tay while this is something we all could expect for Bond and Adele.

Boo, trust me. I know that in order to be a superstar, one needs that X factor. Adele does have it. I'll say it again, she's more of Shirley/Dusty than the likes of Norah/Alanis. And there were numerous of legends who were not superstar either.

Well, this is where public image matters. People will already think "Skyfall" is the better song in their mind before they give each song a listen.

The muppets won last year so I don't think you have to have a smashing song to win

nothing special to me tbh !!!

Alicia Keys & Jack White's Another Way To Die & Madonna's Die Another Day remain UNBOTHERED so far but I need to hear the whole song though to make a definitive judgment...

Girl. It's James Bond. With it's classic Bond track vibes, people WILL buy it. This is one of those times when we need to put the GP into a factor and not underrate their intelligence.

Taylor's wig is not safe at all.

280. Adele - Skyfall

i dont mean the oscars .. i mean the GP!! and the GP goes for Oppa Gangnam Style before a ballad!!

"Die Another Day" is GOOD. But "Another Way to Die"? More like worst Bond track ever. And now "Skyfall" is about to enter Top200 US iTunes btw.
