It was on before SQ, though.

Was it a new episode or a syndicated run? If it was syndicated, then that hardly counts as a lead-in.

I truly think Adele is not going to do that much damage. She's going to be successful but not THAT successful. I don't think she's going to have monster hits like Rolling In The Deep, Someone Like You & Set Fire To Your Faves.

The alberm obviously won't be as successful but the first song will be huge

I hope so.

[Roman Holiday]

Please Adele, release in Nov after Ariallah secures that #1.

Back-to-back slayage by two vocal icons would be dope and what pop music needs right now.

[Cap10Planet]

Some of you always state the obvious.

Not particularly exited about new Adele. She is probably gonna do very well initially, though. Longevity is up to the material.

But I doubt she will have a 1989-sized era (which I consider bigger than 21.)

Messy boots

lol.

She is coming for that Britney record.

Yawn. We go through this every time with Taylor and now Adele's new one. They never learn.
If she's releasing the week before Black friday then she most likely won't.

I would love for her to punch her 2nd week on Black Friday.

Adele wont even do 1989 numbers lol sales are dead and her hype is gone.

I think 5-7x platinum at minimum and I think she can get another Diamond IF she has 5-7 singles deep of smashes.

ADELE IS ALSO PROMOTING

''The British superstar has inked a lockout deal with NBC for four big TV looks, including The Today Show, SNL, a dedicated special and one more appearance TBA (possibly Fallon). The exclusive deal will not, however, prevent Adele from appearing on the 2016 Grammys.''

It's OVER.

The game is hers. People just need to rush release their albums before 11/20.

[Evolution]

I Hope Adele doesn't block Ari.. so hopefully she bombs.

[RoarRiteNow1]

We have confirmation that Adele's new album is coming?

[Cap10Planet]

1989 is bigger 21? As far as what? Certainly not stats.

I'm going with 5x platinum at minimum

I can see her doing 700k-1M first week
with black friday the 2nd week she'll probably do 500k-700k and then slay the rest of the year with 100k+

and then at least a few million in 2016.

[Nialler]

So that TV show about angsty teens (=every Emma Roberts role) bombed? The ghetto soap opera is next.

21 is obviously bigger than 1989.. Taylor only has touring and media power over Adele in this era but it's nt fair to compare 21 to anything because it was just insane.

Adele's waited way too long to release and album sales are dead now, I don't see her going 5x platinum. Hope she proves me wrong though since her music is great

Yes on November 20th

+ she has an hour long BBC special + 4 promo spots on NBC(SNL, Jimmy Fallon etc.)

[Ramos]

Sales were dead back when Adele sold 30m albums too.

[slobro]

Ariana will snatch #1 regardless of Adele

I mean Skyfall was released right after the 21 era and still skyfell of the charts after the first week

Not to mention Sam Smith, Emeli Sande, Ed Sheeran, Jess Glynne etc stole her thunder

Finally There's gonna be so much pressure on her though, and she'll be crucified if the music isn't good enough Hope she pulls through

I've just seen this thrown around, but aside from Taylor's tour (Adele couldn't tour properly because of her vocal issues) and media presence (I would say that Adele was heavily buzzed about in the media), 1989 is hardly a groundbreaking era that is comparable to Adele's 21 era. Has 1989 even crossed 10 million WW yet after nearly a year of purchase? In comparison, 21 did that in much less time. Yeah, sales are different now, but people used that same argument in 2011 and 2012, so it's a valid point. Still 8 million in counting for a 2014 album is not bigger than an album released three or so years before that sold nearly 30 million even if you take inflation/deflation into consideration. Like get real.
