Do you guys like Adele's music?

I'm an Adele fan- and she has a lot of them.
Her album 21 is the ninth best selling album in history, and on a list of the top 25 top selling albums it is the only one recorded in the past 10 years and one of just two that make the list that where recorded in this century.

For me, exactly all that bdp24 has said.  

No.  Especially after she butchered Bonnie Raitt's I Can't Make You Love Me.

She has an unreal range thanks to her flawless ability to jump up and drop out of a falsetto. Her tone set a trend for countless imitators. Her songwriting and lyrics are  as good as anyone out there and yes ‘Someone Like You’ will still be played in at least 30 years and likely well beyond. Just the rhyme ‘Never mind I’ll find’ is so unexpectedly perfect.  So yeah she’s the real deal. Anyone who can’t hear it is sadly too happy to be miserable. 

Daughters and wife played 21 nonstop and I admit I would from time to time belt out the tunes with them, and it was great fun, so yes, I guess I have to consider myself an Adele fan.  But I am even more of a Dan Wilson fan, going way back to his Trip Shakespeare days, so for this reason 21 does have a special quality to it for me anyway.  That being said, it does not sound great on my hifi, I think bc of the recording and compression but maybe it's my equipment (see thread re great music, bad recording, I should have cited this one).  Alison, Sade, Nora sing loops around her though and I will reach for records from these artists before Adele, assuming the she-folk are not around, and Amy Winehouse when they are.

Fun thread - now I have to check out Imelda May and cd318 that HST quote is crazy funny, I hadn't heard that before, thanks!  btw what does atifify mean?
