October 10, 20213 yr Not feeling it at all, if a boyband and or some female singers previews that you would all be slating it. Really hope for more but sounds very middle of the road average ballad. I will try to reserve any more judgement till Friday. A boyband couldn't pull off that in quite the same way, and BuzzJack loves female singers typically so I don't quite get your point there. It's typical Adele so far admittedly, but she's baring her emotions which is why she appeals. I really felt the way she sung "drowning" I am hoping for something outlandish and not typically Adele on the album though.

October 10, 20213 yr I disagree, I think she reaches so many people cos her songs come from the guts and touches people by comparison Ed Sheeran's music is like hospital food
October 10, 20213 yr I disagree, I think she reaches so many people cos her songs come from the guts and touches people by comparison Ed Sheeran's music is like hospital food But that’s what I mean by doing it well. At the end of the day, she has never reinvented the wheel with her music and people use the term MOR to shade music when actually it just makes the music more universal.

October 10, 20213 yr by comparison Ed Sheeran's music is like hospital food YES!!!! THAT IS IT!!! His stale, shite, pasteurised "songs" are run through thr commercial think tanks agaaain and agaaian. It can't even be called music at this point, just processed, mass-produced junk sound. It really is just the musical equivalent of hospital food!
October 10, 20213 yr Anyway, I sas right. The song sounds ABYSMAL. The chords aren't strong like Hello, and the lyrics are whack. ANYTHING from 25 is better and stronger than it ... and if that is the song they chose to open the album campaign with, then eek, unless it is another Gypsy/ Applause situation...
October 10, 20213 yr I disagree, I think she reaches so many people cos her songs come from the guts and touches people by comparison Ed Sheeran's music is like hospital food Exactly that!
October 10, 20213 yr All artists touch people with their music. Just not always the same ones. I would just argue that the reason Adele and Ed get such big sales is because they know what people want from them, rather than being particularly experimental.
October 10, 20213 yr Surely Ed's music touches many people as well? Certainly his ballads... Certainly, there's one of his ballads which reminds me of my grandfathers battle with dementia, makes me cry every time I hear it.

I would just argue that the reason Adele and Ed get such big sales is because they know what people want from them, rather than being particularly experimental. The same could be said of Pink tbf. I don't think Adele writes for others, her music is very expressive of herself and very personal. I'd argue that Ed's earlier music is also.
October 10, 20213 yr I'm not even Ed's biggest fan but he has got some incredible songs especially some ballads.

You are right about Pink, or course, but I find it odd that you bring her up at this point of the dicussion. Adele’s music certainly is personal but her style isn’t. And personal doesn’t mean unique either, she has a very universal sound.
October 10, 20213 yr Author It sounds very safe! I hope it builds to a big chorus at least like "Hello" did (and that there will be some more experimental songs on the album).
October 10, 20213 yr Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the chorus already featured in the snippet that Adele has shared? :thinking:
October 10, 20213 yr Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the chorus already featured in the snippet that Adele has shared? :thinking: Only a tiny bit. It's the first verse/pre-chorus and then she cuts it off as she starts to sing the chorus from what I can tell.
