Posted February 13, 201213 yr What do you think? I suspect it could with a few new tracks added on to help it reach the magical 5 million.
February 13, 201213 yr I don't think it will. I think we'll get a new album at the start of next year, no new material this year unfortunately!
February 13, 201213 yr Adele hates rereleased but I wouldn't be surprised if XL did it, like you say, to get that 5 million
February 13, 201213 yr Adele hates re-releases yes but that didn't stop XL releasing the deluxe 19. I guess it depends how much bargaining power she has. Although I can't imagine there's much to chuck on. I got the impression that she didn't write much for 21 besides what went on the album.
February 17, 201213 yr Author I do think we'll get a new album by the end of this year or start of 2013, regardless of whether they re-release 21. I found the 19 re-release a bit pointless anyway, there were no new tracks on it and just live versions which didnt interest me.
February 20, 201213 yr I know Adele hates re releases / deluxes but i wouldnt be surprised if the record company push on with it to get the album to 5 million sales, should it happen i would like 2-3 new tracks at the least and the rest made of up live performances. In another sense the record company may not go down that route and they might just say its been more than a huge success already and is still selling strongly so they may see no need for a re release.
February 20, 201213 yr There is absolutely no need to re-issue an album that has sold 20 million copies worldwide when standard albums don't even reach 10 million these days. I hope Adele puts her foot down.
February 21, 201213 yr It depends on her contractual position. If she is not tied to XL for the follow-up then she can make almost any demands she wants. If she says "Release a deluxe edition and I'll go elsewhere for my next album" there can be only one winner.
February 21, 201213 yr Author Are any further singles being released from 21? I thought "rumour has it" as supposed to be released but not heard anything. She has only had 3 singles so far, when you compare to the likes of Katy Perry who has had 6 off an album with only 12 tracks.
February 24, 201213 yr Author While the album is still selling so strongly, the record company might argue a re-release isnt necessary. Its still never dropped out of the top10.
May 14, 201213 yr Well if the rumours across the internet are anything to go by, then 21 is getting re-released with new tracks. I love Adele and 21 is a good album, but it's already sold more than what it deserved in my opinion and a re-release really isn't necessary. :(
