Listen To This: The One To Look Out For
Filed under: Anglophilia > Listen To This > AdeleWe know something is gonna click when we just can't stop listening to it.
Adele is going to be huge in 2008, mark our words.
She's got "it."
Her songs just resonate.
We've been enjoying her music so much since we first posted about her last month.
And her album isn't even out yet!!!
We're not the only fans of this promising young talent. Kanye loves Adele as well (after we tipped him off about her).
And you will love her too!
Click here to watch and listen to an exquisite rendition of her song Hometown Glory.
Then CLICK HERE to check out some other great music from our latest obsession, Adele.

i don't deny she has an amazing voice, but aren't all of these english girls starting to sound the same?
OMG she is SO fat… i don't like
OMG she is SO fat… i don't like!!
What's with girls and deep voices?
love it!! sounds soulful and raspy, reminds me of Beth Orton
That was awesome! Really different from other music!
Adele is awesome! I love love love that sultry voice.
god she ugly wear a bag on that ugly mug!
She is good, but she is no Beth Orton. And why is she always singing about the pavement??????
Beautiful, ethereal, tragic, soulful. This is a grand performance. It sounds like the sad beauty of a cold clear winter day. Trees are dead; leaves are gone; the birds no longer sing. But she does.
That was amazing! Can't wait to see more of her in the US!
Re: Lilly – Shut up your own FRUSTRATION as an UNKNOWN A&R is showing, so what if Perez acknowledges great talent. I'm sure you COULD AND DO NOT REACH AS MANY PEOPLE AS PEREZ. On a daily basis in fact. He's SIMPLY SPREADING THE WORD, he gave props to Kanye. I would not have known about this girl anytime soon without this post.
This girl is hot, I love her voice. And for those who are saying she's fat she'll never make it. Well maybe she could lose a few pounds, but we must understand WE CONTROL MUSIC. The companies give us what we support.
So if you want the quality of music to REVOLVE AROUND LOOKS, that is what you will get. We are MISSING OUT on so many talented artist because we have turned music into a MODELING INDUSTRY.
It should be about the music, let me find out your PATHETIC and can't seperate music from the looks of an artist. What does that say about the quality of music you listen to, am sure it sucks.
She is amazing, I'm usually a country fan but I really love the sound of her voice.
I don't know what the retards writing about Perez's taste in music mean by "stick to celebrity gossip". What the hell does QUEEN OF ALL MEDIA mean if not ALL MEDIA! That should include music right?
BTW, she has an awesome voice and the last time I checked that is what it takes to make good music. If she wanted to be on America's Next Top Model I could certainly understand the flack about her weight.
omg love it!
this is my favorite song by her!
She's pretty mediocre. Paid promo much?
Vanessa Carlton sans the ability to play the piano.
.
If they market her as a quasi-torch singer, she'll get in a few hits.
blech….perez is wrong on this one, it sounds like bjork and amy winehouse had a crack baby. seriously she is flat in a lot of the song- bending the pitch is fine as long as you eventually get there.
Reminds me of Sia - Breathe Me
where can I purchase this!!! It is the poop - and that is a great thing!!!
She sounds ok, mostly like elevator music.
Most of all, she is completely unexciting to watch. It's like watching grass grow.
How can anyone compare her with Amy Winehouse?
Amy's voice is much more soulfull, and she is a kick to watch.
Plus Amy's talent both as a performer and as a writer outshines Adele by a LONG shot - even when Amy is drunk and doing drugs…LOL!!

I have never seen a more uninspiring performance in my life! When I first looked at the video and you just saw the headshot of her eating the microphone.. I thought, ok..she is also playing the piano while she sings…then it zoomed out and she was just sitting there on the chair like a hunk of wood!
So then I gave it a chance and checked out another couple of her videos, same thing…COMPLETELY BORING. This is elevator music at it's worst!
-
How can ANYONE even attempt to compare her to Amy Winehouse!!
Amy is a GREAT music writer - great lyrics..and she is GREAT to watch on stage - even when drunk and doing who knows what else!
-
You have to be on crack to even think they are in the same league!

everyone's saying how she's fat.
well, perez is too, so fuck off.
I can play this song on piano
sorry for my horrible english but i'm italian. i want say only that here the name "adele" is used for call the suckers…
God you are slow on the uptake.She has already won an award and you carry on as if YOU found her.!!!!!! Why are you obsessed with raiding UK music.???
I think she's got an excellent voice. It would be nice if the music industry would start supporting people who can actually sing instead of fabricated crap like Britney Spears and Jessica Simpson.
Who cares if she's heavy? She's pretty and tastefully dressed, which is more than can be said for most "artists" these days.
this is truly amazing! better than anything we have here in the US
stop hating!
i really like her
Re: david – its the song you should be listening to. any opinion on the song would be valid thank you
She's special. Can we keep her away from the dragons when the spotlight hits? Amy Whinehouse watch and weep, this was you! Adele, take note!
I am complaining everywhere. I thought "Chasing Pavements" would be available on iTunes today, but it isn't. What's up with that? I want this album.
she is so amazing! i could seriously listen to this song over and over and over again. her voice is just exquisite. but, i really don't think she compares to amy (like you've previously said) b/c amy's one-of-a-kind. in my opinion, artists like adele will come close, but no one will ever top amy
she kind of sounds like amy winehouse
SHE SUCKS. PEREZ, sticl to gossip, u can;t get $ in music, it's not for fags.
sounds like Pink
she's awesome. if you like this, check out suzanna choffel.. another up and coming. similar sounds.
I remeber seeing a video of Adele singing to one of my friends in the uk while they were hanging out when she wasn't famous at all a year or two back
It's good shes finnally getting recognition. She's been working hard at her singing for a long time
OMG She sounds like a depressed drunk singing bad karaoke. What is peoples obsessions with singers that have absolutely no musical ability? Phlegmy voices are not sultry, they are just gross. Song is boring, singer is bad. End of story.
So beautiful….
amazing!
Re: javi – dude thats exactly what i was gonna say, i think she ripped off winehouses vocals and "breathe me" by sia's melody.
Sounds exactly like Kate Nash's 'Nicest Thing'. Good song but a bit of a rip-off
Hmmmm… She sounds a bit like Nina Simone and looks a bit like Mama Cass.
Yeah, Adele has an amazing voice - currently #2 in the UK charts on downloads alone., and most likely she's going to get the #1 spot next week. She's destined for big things.
I think Adele is really amazing . I can't stop listening to that song. Feel sorry for some of your posters perez, I hope, actually I know, having lived there, thats not what a lot of Americans are like. Heh, please perez ease up on people a bit…. because thats what celebs are… people, saying that I prob shouldnt be checking out ur website…. so hypocrisy hahaha Oh ya Up HILARY!!!!!!!
