Got it, but I have to say I'm not impressed. :-\

There's a song of hers that is regularly played on the radio that is quite impressive, but I can't remember the name now. Her voice is the main focus of the song and she does it really well.

Maybe I should take a listen to this new CD of hers ;)

Edit: I think it is Rolling in the Deep 8)

Not as good as her previous one, but nonetheless still pretty decent.

I felt the same on the 1st few spins but I agree with Stepan - it's awesome on so many levels.
You can't expect it to be a continuation of '19' - she's grown as an artist and I love it  :)  My biggest gripe with the album is - if I play 1 track I have to hear 'em all  ;D

Got to agree. Kick's 19's butt imo, more of a mature album. Brilliant stuff.

She's got a pretty good voice. Just listening to 'Someone like you' ... nice!

I dunno. I'm not convinced. While there are some excellent tracks, the album as a whole seems a little derivative. I blame her producer  ;)

I anticipate good things for her next album. Let's just hope it's not called "37"...

I got Adele 21 on LP from EBAY apart from having 19 and 21 on CD and the LP does not sound too bad...

I had a listen to Adele on the radio and I instantly fell in love with her voice

Che is seriously talented and her voice sublime to say the least

Got the CD today. FFS, the producer must get shot. This'll only get playtime in the car...

Ja, as I initially said, I am not over-impressed.

Glad to see I'm not the only one that thinks Rubin has done a great job wrecking stuff that should be imminently listenable.  Sorry to say it, but the man's a d00s.

And the worst is that the album has such great potential to draw you in. But the first time I heard her over-processed voice properly it felt like nails to a chalkboard. *SIGH*
