25

This one would be better featuring in a book called “1001 albums you will likely be subjected to before you die”. I may be jaded partly by the fact that it wss only a week ago that i got 21, another Adele album. Full disclosure. i did not listen to all of it. But i tried. Twice. both times i made it about 6-7 songs in before I realised i wasn’t listening and her voice was distracting me from my thoughts and irritating me. i was quite surprised to hear that she actualy wrote a lot of these songs herself. They sound like they are manufactured to showcase her voice. But they are bland, manufactured pop trash. Kmart background noise. Great music sounds like it is beimg performed with passion. This has some of the ingredients, her voice is good, it is clearly well produced and no doubt the session musicians are spot on. But it has no soul. No narrative. And her great voice becomes whiney. No thanks. i hope there are no more Adele albums in this project.

Adele is a breath of fresh air. Real songs and a real voice with no auto tune

Music for mums 1.5 stars.

Obviously talented. Enjoyed 'Send My Love' and 'All I Ask'. The rest is a bit boring, and I can't handle that much sad/soppiness in one go. Needs cheering up a bit.

Incredible voice but could do with cheering up a bit. Moan moan moan.

Does little for me but hard to say she's not brilliant.

Still beautiful and powerful singing, but also a lot of anonymous fillers

She’s a damn good singer and I appreciate that her songwriting is deeply expressive without being so blatantly dirty laundry airing the way that idiot Taylor Swift’s is. This isn’t the kind of music I like to listen to, but I have a lot of respect for her tremendous talent. The album feels too repetitive in tone as it goes on to really give me what I need to be converted to a fan.

Top bird with a cracking set of... Lungs.

Incredible album, will stand the test of time I'm sure

Her voice is great but not for me.

meh.... even if i'm extremely open-minded on this one... it's just boring to me and got bored right after the third track. Also, i never understood why people love Hello and feel that it's emotional... it just comes out corny to me...

ok sygt

Fuld fløde, klaver, god vokal

Adele sings well.

Pop vocal is just not my wheel house, so I sm most certainly NOT the one to judge this albums artistic merit. For me this album sounds generic in its pop vocal performance. Her voice is sublime there is no doubt but you better bring more to the table than a pretty voice to catch my ear. First off ballad after ballad makes for a boring listen for me. When she does open up a little like on Send My Love...it sounds like rip off of the Lorde hit from 2 years earlier. I'm not an Adele officialdom but I've never heard anything that comes any where near Rolling in the Deep. As I type Sweetest Devotion comes on and it's easily the best song on the album. Makes the album climb from a 2.5 stars to 3 🌟.

big songs, not sure i can take a full album of it, but the compositions are a notch above her peers

White women love this shit. So does this white boy. Maybe not AS much - I'm Team Taylor, she won me over with the Folklore/Evermore Combo all the way back in 2020. You don't want to wrong Adele, unless you want an album about how you done her wrong.

Part of me wishes I saw in this album what everyone else saw in it when it came out, and while it's good, it's not the genre-defining masterpiece others seem to regard it as. Decent tho!

Muy buen disco

Hello it is me

Adeles powerful vocals overpower some mediocre lyrics, there are some absolute classics on here but I found that many tracks got a little too repetitive over time

Предисловие: Давно слышал про эту исполнительницу, но никак небыло времени её послушать. Поехали! Прослушивание 1: 1 А....это она поёт.... ностальгия. Я даже клип помню! Вспоминаю как приходил со школы, включал телевизор и просто наслаждался жизнью :3 2 Какой необычный инструментал. И голос красивый :) 3 Вау.... синтез яркого голоса и относительно томного инстркментала прекрасен!!!! Трек добавлен 4 Очень томный трек... сложно слушать. Но мне всеравно нравится! 5 Красиво, прикольно. Не более. 6 Потанцевать можно. Мотивирует... 7 Я в каждом треке поражаюсь голосу Адель! Это шикарно! Хотя немного приедается.... Треки похожи друг на друга 8 Снова карсивый голос под пианино.... мне сложно такое слушать, простите 9 Какие красивые завывания) . Трек похож на эстрадный, кто у кого украл не знаю))) . А если серъёзно, то как по мне самый эмоциональный трек с альбома. Лайк! 10 Эмоциональная давка. Так я это опишу... Я проникся.... Очень сильно! 11 Отоличный завершающий трек! Альбом хоть и просел в середине, но впечатления пока приятные Прослушивание 2-3: в целом мне понравился альбом. Но переслушивать устал, слишком быстро приедается. Добавил трек 2 и все Вывод: Альбом прекрасен, как и сама Адель. Я менжуюсь между 3 и 4, нопоставлю 3. Альбом я не добавлю, и треков добавил не так много. Если бы можно было поставить 3.5, то я бы так и сделал. Стыдно

This is one of the first records that Walden really liked. I haven't listened since he was probably 2-3 years old. So, 5ish years. As soon as I heard the first chords of "Hello" I was struck. This is such a good record and she is an amazing talent. I don't think the production is going to stand the test of time. Which is a shame, because Adele doesn't need any of that shit. Her talent is timeless, but it can't overcome those muted drum sounds for a perfect score.

I'm not quite sure if I'm ashamed to admit this or not, but I really like Adele's music. She is an undeniable, generational talent. And it's not just the voice, but the authenticity. Not sure what else to say really. Any album that has this many hits (even in today's over-commercialized market) is impressive.

Like the first song, the rest not really a fan.

Thought her previous album was the classic one? That one contained at least one great song (Rolling in the Deep)...

Vocal acrobatics, but not in a good way. What a waste.

Normally not my genre... But she is so f**king talented. Her voice is tremendeous, but the record becomes repetative, as there is not much development. A solid album, well produced. Removed from the list (2018), and surely there are new albums that can replace this one.

Likeable pop. Powerful voice. Hard to criticize Adele, but I'm not a big fan of this. Could be my age, but it sounds way overproduced and overly dramatic.

I enjoyed listening to this. I especially liked the songs that I hadn't heard before. I don't know that it'll cause me to listen to her more. The biggest obsession about Adele that I have is the fact that Rick Beato is obsessed with her. I LOVE to listen to him talk about her!

I actually find her voice a bit overwrought and I can’t listen to it all in one go. It lacks subtlety and nuance in the sound, but you can’t deny that she’s a good song writer. I’d probably prefer to listen to Kraftwerk than this.

I've never listened to an Adele album all the way through. I've always assumed that radio and shopping centres will provide me with enough of her (admittedly quite good) music. Obviously I've heard Hello a lot. The third beat song with that word in the title. I have a massive soft spot for it, as my daughter used to sing it when she was too small to pick up all the words. So I always remember her versions when I hear it. Hello. It's me, I've been waiting for this moment in the unagalaxy. Send My Love To Your New Lover is familiar and pretty good too. The next couple of tracks are pretty samey though. She definitely has a comfort zone... I recognize, but am fairly ambivalent about Remedy, and River Lea wakes me up a little, if only because I used to like a run along there. There's not much else worth writing home about tbh. She has an incredible voice, but it largely gets used in one way, which limits the enjoyment I can get out of it.

Not my cup of tea. Overly produced and I'm not wild about the timbre of her voice.

Not bad, love Adele’s voice, but find the music behind it uninspired

Adele is Adele. I already knew her and this album. Okay, she might have been inspired by some song here or there, so to say, yet this is a good piece. She deserves it.

One I was already familiar with before this experiment. Loved getting a chance to listen to the album!

I'm surprised I've never sat down and listened to the whole album before. What a tour de force.

A classic. Of course.

It is a modern classic!

This album is actually a jam all the way through. The writing is a little repetitive but is more mature and nuanced than a lot of pop. It's cool that she mostly writes her own material (albeit with cowriters).

Very powerful and talented. Closer to a 4 than I expected though. I had to listen twice to get hit by the melancholy nostalgia that runs through the album. Make me ache for a simpler time.

Grande cantora, mas arranjos ok. Não surpreende positivamente
