I really hope it does, to be honest. I love "Send My Love," but "Water Under the Bridge" is MILES better.

I definitely prefer WUTB of the two but I appreciate her trying something new for her with SML. WUTB's the better pure song but I like the attitude SML has, it feels closer to her between-songs personality.

I don't understand why she allowed them to sabotage "When We Were Young" when it's her favorite song ever.

Like, the way I see it, if she really loves it that much, she'd push for it to become one of her signature songs. (I think she'll still consider it a big enough song for her to keep singing it on tour and stuff, though.)

And now she's going to sabotage "Water Under the Bridge" unnecessarily too.

Like, her team is SO smart in some ways, but they're so stupid in others. If she's going to be gone for that long, they need to at least try to give her some longevity on the radio with these songs. If they're not going to try, why bother releasing singles?

daydreams

Well, maybe she's not going to be gone for that long

While the critique of the mishandling of WWWY is valid, to be fair, everybody but Taylor half-asses a fourth single at least somewhat. And everyone thinks Taylor's extra.

I agree completely! "Send My Love" is very sassy, which I love, and I like that she tried something new because it did work for her. But "Water Under the Bridge" is a good mix of trying something new and her old style, I think, which I love, and I like that it's refreshing, both in sound and in theme. It's an upbeat, pop-influenced love song. It's honestly so amazing, she can't do it the injustice she's doing to it.

You know, I gotta say, the design on this is really impressive. I actually really wish this was legit! (Although I don't know why they gave the two songs from the encore their own disc and then just randomly added a show from 2011 as bonus content.) I hope she officially releases the Glastonbury performance, it was AMAZING!

WAUTB needs that "kickstart" push..(see. AMAS teaser for SML),,,its been falling now into the Top 200s on iTunes

Happy 1 year 25!

9.1 million sold copies, 10.2 million units later and STILL top 30!
And 1 year ago the biggest release of all time!

Someone should thread it!

Troye

I still can't believe I got to witness the biggest start to an era ever.

On the other note, I'm so psyched for Adele's show tomorrow. Also the perf time anyway since I need to unstress from final projects.

I never really listened to her Church studios sessions interview till now and I'm blown away by the fact that she has a video of her and Tobias Jesso Jr. recording WWWY at his friend's house. Like, even if it was recorded by a phone, but at least they could have used some of that in the music video. What a waste!!

"Adele - Water Under the Bridge (Live at the Church Studios) (Official Video)"

I really don't understand what is so hard about making a music video. It's not like any us are expecting the new Thriller from her. Anything is better than nothing. Get in front of a ****ing green screen and shoot one for all I care. This song has potential to be a huge hit and she's just going to let it die by not releasing a video or releasing a year old performance of it, where she had a cold btw. Lord knows it could be years before we get another single after this. Does she really think she can afford all kinds of time off after this tour when her last massive hit was last year? At least end the era with a decent sized hit that can buy you a little time.

There is no excuse for this laziness.

And if she gives us a video eventually and WUTB blows up, ignore all of this.

Mike91

Oh and if you're going to do a video, make sure it's not an unwatchable mess like SML was.

Maybe anything isn't better than nothing in some cases.

Nothing but tea spilled from Mike.
Me, Daydreams and a few others had this combo about her video messiness yesterday ugh

Bey Admired

She could have made a video in the same setting as her Target adverts

She's so lazy. That's what annoys me about this bitch. If you're going to take 5 years off, at least give us a proper era when you return.

I'm not sure I'll be as excited when she decides to show her face in another 5 years. She's kinda selfish if I'm being honest. Her complacency is second to none.

She has a chance to make a real concrete legacy for herself. She literally has the chance to become a legend. Instead, she wants to take another 5 years off to be a housewife

WE STAN FOR A HOUSEWIFE

What I don't understand is why doesn't she shoot the videos during her break I mean they know which songs are somewhat single material. Do it in your own time etc.
The start of the era video wise was so promising ughhhhh
Also it's not going to be 5 years I bet my **** & brows on this. Maximum 3
She's not even a housewife tbh
We stan an obsessed mom.

Can she make at least a boring lyrics video a la Skyfall?? They get a lot of views....

I wouldn't mind the lack of videos (hell, the lack of an era after 1 single) if we didn't have to wait 5 years in between albums. I could also understand if she was like 20 years into her career or something, not at the height of it.

She's getting too cocky with all of this. She thinks she can basically give us one single every album, ignore streaming for months, take years off, and come back and smash like she did last year.

Mike91

And what about Sony? Did they just hand her a multi-million contract with absolutely no requirements out of her?

They were our only hope of making her do more.
