I am an Adele stan and could only watch 30 seconds of the video, What a mess - Looks like it's a fan made edit! Will be interesting to see if the single makes any kind of impact - Can see it missing the Top 40 officially.

Could this has to do with the fact she signed to a new label?

Maybe her current label can't be arsed to pay videos when they know she's moving to a new label for the next album?

 

Sounds like a poor excuse but I need to find a reason for that mockery :(

I don't think 'Someone Like You' really counts as a music video that got "made". It was one 4 minute shot of her miming on phone cam.
I don't blame her for snapping up the reported 90 million deal with Sony but I always loved the fact she was with XL - A global superstar on an indie label.
Lol she was across Blackfriars Bridge and her friend filmed her on a phone. Hardly a music video.

 

Blackfriars Bridge? :blink: If your referring to 'Someone Like You' it was filmed in Paris, No Blackfriars Bridge there :lol:

"Her friend filmed her" makes it sound like she plucked a random to do it on the cheap; Jake Nava has directed loads of high profile videos.

I think you missed my sarcasm there dear

What a truly horrific video. Her album campaigns would be far more interesting if there were great visuals to go with the songs. I don't really rate this single choice anyway but I might be able to like it if the video sold it to me. Her only good videos are Hello and Someone Like You.

why are her visuals so weak when the audio is so strong? seriously she has the best vocals why not accompany it with an equally stunning visual?

 

the Rolling in the Deep, Hometown Glory, Chasing Pavements, Cold Shoulder and Hello videos are all in their own right either cinematic or iconic (coff coff flip phone) and then for the remainder of her singles, she either doesn't have a video (Skyfall, When We Were Young, Rumour Has It etc.) to go with the song or when she does it seems half-hearted e.g. Someone Like You, Send My Love. I don't know, wish her team would pick up on this. I mean I get she's on tour but it's becoming a running theme which is a bit of a joke when she releases an album every 5/6 years?

 

Also this is probably my favourite Adele song since A Million Years Ago which I first heard when 25 came out, happy it's achieved a top 40 placing. Hope it climbs further!

The video is a good idea - an Adele for each of the voice overdubs. But it could have been done a lot better. As for the song, I dont think much of it.
