Listening to….ADELE
Every morning I walk 20 minutes from my front door to the gates of my job and I enjoy my me time mostly because of the soundtrack of my sunny mornings. I recently (read: #latepass) discovered Adele and I wonder how people managed to keep her a secret for so long. After hearing one song I downloaded her entire discography and have not looked back. Her voice is instantly addictive and she has managed to kick everyone else out of rotation. I listen to her all day and all night and I have yet to get sick of her.
Her lyrics are infectious and you can tell that she puts her soul into her work. I have two live albums and I think they are much better than her studio albums.
My Fave Tracks
- Hometown Glory. I actually prefer the studio version of this song, which appears on the album, 19
- Chasing Pavements. I do believe it is one of her hits and the live version that appears on her iTunes Live from Soho album gets me every time.
- Turning Tables. This song drags you in with the incredible piano accompaniment
- Someone Like You. The live acoustic version on her album 21, brings me to tears, not sure why but it does. It evokes feelings of nostalgia for anyone who ever broke up then heard about your ex being happy with another.
She has a ton of other amazingly wonderful songs, but these are the four that I gave five stars to in my iTunes. Are you listening to Adele? What are your favorite tracks?
This is an amazing performance from the BRIT awards of Someone Like You
