Million Years Ago is her best song!!

I literally weep and bawl every time I hear it. OMG I can't stop crying

[blackbeatxx]

hello really grown on my, it's great arrangement and massive vocals, and building up to a real beat in the end.

i don't care much for the classic divas and their ballads, but there's just something about her, her voice and her songs that transcend to an oldschool music/metal-fan like me and touches!

there are pop-twats on this site that don't think Adele has much impact; well, i'm an example that she is indeed

Adele her wide appeal Tell them pop twinks

I can't at the slayage

Imagine if someone else did the type of promo Adele did - performing different songs at different outlets. A 'messy era where she doesn't know what song or single to choose' T.
at the same time the music seems to sell itself

I have seen the light. WWWY needs to become a classic. Signature song for her. Wow it just clicked with me this week for some reason

[Heels Over Head]

Did you find the note that I wrote?
I hid it in the seam of your coat
It was hard to write with a lump in my throat
Do you even know I can't let go

Adele's widespread appeal is truly remarkable to witness. She seems like an amalgamation of the '70's singer/songwriters with the power vocalists from the '90's to me. Yet, her music manages to remain contemporary at the same time.

It's somewhat easy for me to understand how people who were not drawn to the sheer vocal dexterity of artists like Celine, Whitney or Mariah 20 years ago might connect more with Adele now. Likewise, younger generations who are highly unlikely to delve into a Carole King or Janis Ian album have Adele to serve up a much fresher take on confessional singer-songwriter torch balladry while combining it with her deeply emotive vocals. I've always been fascinated with Adele's ability to make it sounds as if she's seemingly on the verge of tears at any given moment and her natural instinct about when to selectively use that ability.

She adds all this to a high level of relatability and a more bare-boned approach to marketing that seems so contrary to what we've become accustomed to expecting from pop star the last few decades.

this is exactly how I view her as an artist she has the song writing /confessional vibe of Carol King, Janis Joplin, Alanis Morissett etc but has the vocal abilities of the big divas like Celine, Mariah and Whitney (to a lessor extent). She is the perfect combination of those two types of artists.

I love this.

She's a perfect merger between generations & styles and that's why she reaches so many people.

pretty much pinpoints it for me. she, both with the singing and personality have an edge that makes her believable and relatable and exciting that i personally don't really find among those classic super-vocalists/divas. i've never cared for the likes of celine/mariah etc. and while i recognise both them and older divas like streisand as brilliant vocalists, i'm not in it for the technical chops and it bores me.
i love her cockney-soul/jazzy/trubadour background on 19 and it still shines thru her newer music in a degree.
but also yeah it has the contemporary sound there and i think it's great she's still with an indielabel like XL that has MIA, dizzee rascal, jack penate, prodigy, radiohead and sigur ros in its roster and keep using paul epworth, mark ronson and the God Rick Rubin.
she's in a great position now. i just want more jazz-soul from her!

I still need to get the Delux from target so I can listen to the bonus tracks

I can't wait

[Crank_It_Up]

I went to Target twice this week and on both days they were sold out.

Just my luck.
