November 19, 20213 yr The voice memos in My Little Love make it so raw to the point it feels intrusive. Really heartbreaking to hear.
November 19, 20213 yr Apparently I Drink Wine was originally 15 minutes long! I Drink Wine (15 Minute Version) (Adele's Version) [From The Vault] coming in 2031 :D
November 19, 20213 yr I Drink Wine has really grown on me. I basically like everything now aside from To Be Loved. I'd have liked another uptempo song in the second half instead of that.
November 19, 20213 yr Apparently I Drink Wine was originally 15 minutes long! I Drink Wine (15 Minute Version) (Adele's Version) [From The Vault] coming in 2031 :D Tbh Adele could have probably got away with the 15 minute version at this stage in her career, I sometimes wish artists would just go out and release the full versions instead of saying 'oh well it was this long but I had to cut it'.
November 19, 20213 yr What an utter snoozefest. I was so looking forwards to this album but what... a... let... down! She needs a rolling in the deep or send my love or rumour has it or even set fire to rain something more upbeat its so boring. Can I get it is great until the chorus, Oh my god is ok, Easy on me is a beautiful track the rest I don't think I'll bother listening to by choice again. Total letdown after 6 years.
November 19, 20213 yr Yeah, I can't really see myself returning to this at all tbh. It was a pleasant listen but that's about it for me. YouTube likes 5m Easy On Me 90k To Be Loved 41k My Little Love 39k I Drink Wine 39k Oh My God 37k Strangers By Nature 31k Hold On 30k Cry Your Heart Out 30k Woman Like Me 26k Can I Get It 26k Love Is A Game 22k All Night Parking (with Erroll Garner) Interlude
November 19, 20213 yr I was rather underwhelmed with the first listen. I played my CD on my stereo and Easy On Me sounds amazing. As for the album I enjoyed OMG and I Drink Wine. I don't know what to think of My Little Love - I found it both a little uncomfortable and a little self-indulgent to listen to to be honest. Giving the album a second listen now.
November 19, 20213 yr The album sounds very Americanized, doesn't it? It doesn't feel like a British record, like her first ones did. :unsure:
November 19, 20213 yr Can I Get it is such a BOP! It’s miles ahead of OMG for me quite surprised to see OMg revived quite a bit better Edited November 19, 20213 yr by LMLou
November 19, 20213 yr I think Can I Get It? Is probably THE best sang on the album, ans easily the catgiest. It needs to be the next single. Oh My God can be the 3rd single, and then the power ballads after that. Job's a good un.
November 19, 20213 yr The album sounds very Americanized, doesn't it? It doesn't feel like a British record, like her first ones did. :unsure: I see what you mean tbh, but it also sounds like what Amy Winehouse would be putting oot... Hmm, I think she needs to move back to the UK, unless the pasteurised, globalised American sound is now more popular in the neolib woeld and does her better in terms of sales... In terms of art, the British sound comes off better.
November 19, 20213 yr Can I Get it is such a BOP! It’s miles ahead of OMG for me quite surprised to see OMg revived quite a bit better Omg ... THIS!! My Little Love meanwhile is self-indulgent codswallop.
November 19, 20213 yr I think 'Can I Get It' is easily my fave too, but I don't mind which of the two is the next single. She really needs to show another side to her, I'm seeing so many people all over my socials say she's a one trick pony/does the same song etc.
November 19, 20213 yr Greg James confirmed he will have a different track each day next week as he's picked the album as his Tune of the Week. I believe that's a first for that feature to have an album!
November 19, 20213 yr @1461682049123815435 I'm so mad this is a target exclusive track! It sounds so good *_*
November 19, 20213 yr Author I've had a few listen throughs today, it's a lot more experimental than we were led to believe and I think she could've pushed further but I understand why she keeps playing safe in her sound. Oh My God & Can I Get It really are the pop bops we deserved from her. I really like the section from Oh My God up to All Night Parking. Hold On also sounds incredible in studio form as well as the live version! I'm unsure about My Little Love at the moment...the voice notes are a bit much!
