This is after two listens. The first half is definitely better than the latter half. But it’s yet another a solid effort from her, I think it will eventually become my favourite of hers due to the genre-hopping; it keeps it sounding fresh.

Can I Get It is a massive standout to all the rest, love Oh MyGod also. Loving the whole album so far! So good to have her back. I Drink Wine has massively grown on me too.
Having listened only once it hasn’t clicked yet. Hoping more songs click second time round but for now I do think Easy On Me was the strongest song this album has to offer
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.

 

 

Agree totally. Could have written that myself. Not enough good songs. Maybe just 3.

I have to be brutally honest. The album is a chore, for the most part. The only songs that I've decided to keep are: Easy on Me, To Be Loved, I Drink Wine, OMG & Can I Get It?

 

The rest are just bad & boring. It definitely isn't her best effort. I'm quite disappointed.

May not be a popular opinion but I really think 'To be loved' is the best song on the album, in fact one of her best ever. The raw emotion, the massive last chorus....it's superb! Hope it's a single.

These are definitely the best 5 songs ! Agreed on first listen it was a bit of a bore

The album has not flopped. Its doing really weill despite being an average one with no big hits on it, not even easy on me is not something extraordinary.

'To Be Loved' is my favourite from the album now, that song is so dark it should be certified 18. I'd love to see her perform this at the Grammys and nail it.
Well, I’m really enjoying the album so far. For me, it’s been more instant than 25 was - I struggled to connect with that album more than this one. I think there’s definitely some career highs in some of these songs. The last 3 of the album are all exceptional.
I feel like I’m listening to a different album to most of you 😂, I love it, there is probably 1 maybe 2 average tracks for me but no skips.
I'm really torn on My Little Love, I think it's a good atmospheric song and I really like the production but the vocal snippets definitely feel like too much. I feel like I'd be more okay with them if they were of many other women and although I have gotten used to them with a few plays, it just kinda feels wrong to be listening to a chat between Adele and her child.
It's an all round solid album but i'm not sure there's a 10/10 wow track on the album so far for me. Yeah Oh My God and Can I Get It are great but I wouldn't rank them as highly as my favourites from 19/21/25. I'm giving it time to grow on me though.

For me .. I only really like the album from ‘Oh my god’ onwards… (apart from easy on me - I love it)

The other songs I really wish she hadn’t put on the album :-/

My favourite of the album changes every listen now. :lol: "I Drink Wine" is now in that position. The album is so much more than I was hoping for. :wub: I hope it has really good longevity with 4+ singles WITH videos. They'll be pushing the album until the 2023 Grammys I assume so plenty of time for more singles.

 

I assume she'll perform at the 2022 Grammys. I can't wait for more live TV performances from Adele this era - she's sounded phenominal on the CBS special and tomorrow's ITV special is going to be no different I bet! Also the ITV special set list will be different, although I'm not sure how different. I know there was a rehearsal clip of "Chasing Pavements" when she was recording it.

 

Edit: This is the set list apparantley:

 

Hometown Glory

Easy On Me

Woman Like Me

Love Is A Game

I Drink Wine

Hold On

Hello

When We Were Young

Chasing Pavements

Set Fire To The Rain

Someone Like You

Rolling In The Deep

Make You Feel My Love

 

3 songs from 19 :wub:

I can't believe she's not including any of the more uptempo numbers from the new album. That's not exactly gonna allay the criticisms of her being a one trick pony.

I think this is the kind of album that needs a bunch of listens to appreciate, it's not very instant

I've listened 3 times in full and still couldn't be able to hum any of the newbies

my biggest problem is that it almost feels like a chore to listen to the album
