It is so low isn't it :cry:

I really, don't get it. I thought it was a MOMENT on the 21 album tbh.

I really, don't get it. I thought it was a MOMENT on the 21 album tbh.

 

It really was - that and I'll Be Waiting really stick out for me.

 

Results WILL be completed, I've just got a lot of uni work and need to re-write a few commentaries!

30. "River Lea" track seven fom 25 (score 8.08)

 

29. "Right As Rain" track eight from 19 (score 8.14)

 

28. "Make You Feel My Love" track nine from 19 (score 8.14)

 

27. "Daydreamer" track one from 19 (score 8.27)

 

26. "Skyfall" soundtrack song for "Skyfall" (2012) (score 8.28)

 

In at 30 we have "River Lea". Adele describes the song as you can take a girl out of Tottenham but you can't take Tottenham out of her, and pays homage to her roots. Given the themes of growing up and progressing into adulthood I was surprised

that this song was snubbed on the setlist of the current tour.

None the less it has faired not too badly with an average of just over eight and has had general praise across the rate. Next up at 29 is Right As Rain, taken from 19 and was featured in a few television shows such as The Inbetweeners and is on her setlist for her previous tour. Up next I'm surprised to see Make You Feel My Love in at 28 with an average score of 8. Arguably one of her biggest songs, the original never really appealed to me. Following this is the guitar led Daydreamer is considerably ahead and is the song fans have aligned to in order to get their "fandom" name from. Last in this round is the James Bond track Skyfall, which is VERY narrowly infront of Daydreamer. Without being bias it's probably my James Bond track there is, but it's definitely finished round about where it should in my opinion. Double whammys for 21 and 25 coming out in the next round as we edge closer to the top 20!

Wow, two more singles dropping out already! I definitely expected a lot better for "Skyfall" in particular. At least the top 10 won't be quite as predictable now.

Sean, that performance of 'Daydreamer' is perhaps my favourite live performance she's ever done :heart:, and happens to be her TV debut too. The camerawork really complements the entrancing feel of the whole thing. Gorgeous, timeless song (and live delivery). Goes without saying that it deserved better here. :cry:

 

'Right As Rain' is another '19' highlight, and I'm surprised 'Make You Feel My Love' only made #28, as overexposed as it is.

 

I always felt 'Skyfall' did its job expertly but is too 'style over substance' to rank among her best stuff, so that placing seems fine to me.

Sorry for the delay in results, uni took over my life and didn't get time to write sufficient write ups or post results!

 

25. "Million Years Ago" track nine from 25 (score 8.36)

 

24. "Best For Last" track two from 19 (score 8.40)

 

23. "He Won't Go" track six from 21 (score 8.44)

 

22. "Remedy" track five from 25 (score 8.44)

 

21. "I'll Be Waiting" track eight from 21 (score 8.46)

 

Up next, we have my fifth favourites from 25 and one of my favourite tracks in this rate, Million Years Ago. This song received decent scores I thought and I recall it being a trend on Twitter shortly after release. Adele subsequently promoted it in the US and performed it on her tour, a personal highlight for me. Narrowly infront we have Best For Last and He Won't Go. Above these in a close call, we have Remedy, the first track Adele penned for 25 dedicated to her family, boyfriend and her son. Ryan Tedder produced, this scored reasonably well and has done favourably well out of the 25 tracks. Finishing last is my favourite song after RITD from 21, I'll Be Waiting which breaks the mold of "boring and slow". Adele herself describes it as a "rare fast one so if you want to move nows the time to do it".

20. "Tired" track eleven from 19 (score 8.48)

 

19. "Hiding My Heart" bonus track from 21 (score 8.48)

 

18. "I Found A Boy" bonus track from 21 (score 8.49)

 

17. "Cold Shoulder" track four from 19 (score 8.58)

 

16. "One and Only" track nine from 21 (score 8.65)

 

Some of the best written Adele tracks in this lot! :o

 

One of the few 19 tracks remaining, in at 20 we have Tired averaging 8.48 and sits quite favourably within the top 20. As well we have Hiding My Heart, a 21 deluxe track, as is number 18's I Found A Boy. Infront we have the criminally underrated Mark Ronson track Cold Shoulder (which Adele herself snubs on her setlists!!!!!) and One And Only, which averaged at 8.65. Next round coming up soon with some 25 taking a real bashing...

"Cold Shoulder" is higher than I expected actually, I used to love it a lot but not so much now. I'm happy with 16th for "One and Only" though I would personally rank it higher, what a beauty :wub:

15. "If It Hadn't Been For Love" track six from Adele Live At The Royal Albert Hall (score 8.66)

 

14. "Don't You Remember" track four from 21 (score 8.79)

 

13. "Love In The Dark" track eight from 25 (score 8.81)

 

12. "Send My Love (To Your New Lover) track two from 25 (score 8.89)

 

11. "All I Ask" track ten from 25 (score 8.94)

 

Covered on her second tour, If It Hadn't Been For Love comes in at 15. Included on the Royal Albert DVD, Adele has performed this a few times including at the iTunes festival. Up next comes Don't You Remember at 14 and at 13 Love In The Dark, my favourite track from 25. Another two casualties from 25 being Send My Love and All I Ask, both scoring just under 9 points each.

10. "Turning Tables" track three from 21 (score 8.96)

 

9. "When We Were Young" track four from 25 (score 9.00)

 

8. "Chasing Pavements" track two from 19 (score 9.09)

 

7. "Someone Like You" track eleven from 21 (score 9.39)

 

6. "Rolling In The Deep" track one from 21 (score 9.64)

 

We have Turning Tables kicking off the top ten with one of my absolute favourites When We Were Young coming in next, very narrowly though. Triple wammy of singles follows on with Rolling In The Deep missing out on that top five placing :cry:

Aww, there shouldn't be five songs ahead of RITD. I suppose I'll be surprised at whatever wins now unless 'Hello' takes it.
