To not get the big fuss over adele

[Busybuzzybumblebee]

Don't get me wrong she can sing but people are saying they were "sobbing" at the power of new song. I don't get the hype about her

Who do you rate?

I don't get it either. Live, she's off-key. I don't enjoy the style of her voice, personally.

if you dont really like her music you wouldn't get it.

I like her voice and i find music very emotive.. her song, the words, the music, its very emotional.

I haven't heard it yet. It's like all things though, not everyone like the same.I didn't like her stalker song much.

Sobbing at a song seems a bit OTT. Will have a listen and see if I can squeeze a tear out.

I like Ellie Goulding though which I think is a bit controversial.

Her inability to say her 'L's pisses me off. 'Skyfaww' anyone?

or 'crumbole' Vim.

I'm not a fan, it's very "generic emotion song" suitable for weddings, funerals, christenings, bar mitzvah and everything in between.

A bit like "you raise me up" by westlife.

It's not really my cup of tea. I prefer Bryan Adams!

I enjoy listening to her music - self penned, usually a true/honest account of a time in her life, acompanied by a great melody, sung by a women who is talented, down to earth, and doesnt conform to the generic fame/egomaniacal lifestyle that seems to come as standard.

Love her or otherwise, Adele will become a legend of this generation and I enjoy that I am part of that as a current listener.

I am not sure about a legend. Maybe I am too old to think that, I doubt I am her target audience.

I tried to like her, but she's just a bit... bland.

I have listened to the song now. It's just Adele isn't it? Doing what Adele does.
I am afraid I remained dry eyed.

Another song for X Factor hopefuls to murder.

Maybe not a target audience usual. I do think I would have been all over her music if I was a teenager now. All the angst would be very appealing.

I don't get it either. Like a poor man's Amy Winehouse, but without the car crash lifestyle.

She has a good voice, but her music is such dirge. She's just musical beige. Someone Like You made me want to scratch my eyeballs out it was played so much.

DH says it has been played non stop on the radio today. I assume it will be straight in at number one.

I tried to escape her this morning so switched from radio 1 (nick grimshaw creaming over her) to radio 2 - Chris Evans (also creaming 5 mins later)

In desperation went to radio 4 - Today Programme - you can guess the topic? I opted for silence in the end.

She's got a shit hot agent that's for sure!

Another cheery little song for stalkers from Adele. I quite like her voice though, perhaps she should stick to covering Bob Dylan.

I find her bland as well.

Her music is bland, that is. I know nothing about her as a person.

And why has she got this obsession with turning up on ex boyfriends doorsteps unnounced? Can you imagine if a man wrote that?

She's a silly stalker who just needs to get over it.

I agree. I heard her new song on the radio and it sounded like all her other songs. Bland.
