I wish she would have done more songs like it on the album, but it probably would've turned off half her of base.

That was the problem with having to follow up 21 (or any big album for that matter). Trying to do something different but also knowing that a lot of people were wanting 21 part 2.

I feel like WUTB will become a 9 or a 10 for me when/if we get a video for it. I just wish the production was less "pop radio" sounding. But at least it should help it become a huge hit.

Yeah, I feel that. I think WUTB is as far as pop as Adele should go this era. SMLTYNL is FAR too pop for her.

I asked the shop in the neighbourhood to buy I-D magazine. Otherwise I'm gonna go to the American Book Center (first call them). I want ID magazine so bad!

I think SML could have been a hit without all the 'pop production' of Max Martin. It's got a catchy chorus. It could have definitely been more raw and soulful sounding than it is.

Yes, my problem with SML is his production, I stopped being into the songs he produces a while ago and when I heard she worked with him I already knew what my least favorite song on the album was going to be. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy the song during every listen but I don't want it as a single.

It's shocking because when I first heard it, it was like one of my favorite ballads of hers and I even wanted a Grammys performance.

I don't know. I feel like Can't Let Go would have been a better choice for the album over it.

Same I wonder why it got rejected Can't Let Go is definitely on the better half of the album

I thought it was because it sounded too much like 21 but All I Ask wouldn't have sounded out of place on 21 either.

She probably chose AIA because of Bruno.

With Paul Epworth doing most of the production, replacing AIA with CLG, a couple other midtempo/uptempo songs to break up some of the ballads and this album would have been a 10.

That would have brought the score down a lot lower.

Adele working with Max Martin is like a motile sperm cell ending up in someone's rectum, wasting!

Was your New Year's resolution to be even messier than in 2015?

[Adele Addict]

To be completely honest, and I've said this before, "Send My Love (To Your New Lover)" doesn't really fit on 25; the production is almost too pop. Even on songs like "Water Under the Bridge" and "River Lea," her roots are still in it. But I still love "Send My Love." It's so catchy and it's honestly a bop, but it's a shame that all three bonus tracks would've fit much better musically on the album (although I'm fine with "Lay Me Down" staying a bonus track; it's still phenomenal, but out of every song on the album, it's by far my least played).

I am a sucker for "All I Ask," though. I feel like a lot of people are divided on that song, but honestly, it's so beautiful. I get what Mike is saying about how it's almost too Bruno Mars-sounding, but Adele even said that the two of them were known for writing emotional love songs and decided on doing the cheesiest, sappiest love ballad they could possibly do. It's still one of my favorites (only second to "When We Were Young"), and I think it has a lot more meaning to me knowing that Adele wrote it about her friends.

And funny story... So, I was talking to my best friend the other night (and we don't see each other that often anymore, which breaks my heart, but Adele's music actually helped me a lot through not being with my best friend all the time and whatever). He brought up Adele and said that his dad bought 25, and I asked him if he liked it, and I was REALLY hoping he'd say "When We Were Young" was his favorite, because it's mine and it reminds me of him - literally every time I hear it, I think of him. And he's like, "Oh, my favorite's the second one!" And I was like, "Please tell me you meant the second single and not the second track.... 'Send My Love'? That's your favorite?" And he's like, "Yeah!" He usually has a great music taste and then all of a sudden he decides he likes THAT song better than "When We Were Young"! I've never been more disappointed....
