Adele’s “Someone Like You” is like the Roberta Flack song “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” of this generation.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePdIyHR4YYg[/youtube]It’s beautiful and emotional. Everyone relates to it. But, dang, it’s so sad! Sometimes we all just want to cry and eat ice cream while listening to Adele. Plus, the song gives me a nasty earworm, so even though I love it, it’s annoying at the same time.
Like Roberta Flack, Adele has one of the most soulful voices of our time. And even though she has a mega hit with “Someone Like You,” her catalog is deep.
Good Records gives us an Adele fix with a screening of “Adele Live from Royal Albert Hall” at 9 p.m. Monday, Nov. 28. The DVD is released Nov. 29, and Good Records will start selling it after the screening, at midnight.
