Adele

Topics

I'm just watching a documentary style programme about Adele on Channel 5.

I did not know much about her and only knew a couple of her songs (not all the way through TBH apart from Skyfall). I have been pretty much dismissive of Adele as just another pop act, but I have to be honest I've changed that opinion. She seems to be a much more interesting character and to have an academic pointing out how she uses say chords in her songs was very interesting especially how she blends the Bond theme into her Skyfall opening chord structure. Just wish there was more of that.

I had little knowledge of her formative years and where she was born and grew up.

How many albums she has sold and a glimpse in to her cracking the states.

I'm am very open to listening to all sorts of music and I think I should stick Adele onto my list of albums to work through.

I thought the very same thing EC until just before Christmas and I watched that. Her Carpool Karaoke led me into it.

Now I think she's great

Is that a repeat?

It was pure good luck I caught it.

She does come across as quite a genuine person.

@Dame_Ann_Average

Do you think she will continue to use her age for the titles of her albums?

she's said in a few interviews it was her last age album EC, I think it was part of a journey and I suppose she's reached what she set out to achieve thumb
