Adele?

This is a long shot but I just cant get this ladies music out of my player. The voice is just mind blowing and so fresh. I heard her song "Rolling in the Deep" and liked that song but then I explored some of her other songs and WOW!!! I enjoy passionate singing and this woman tears me to the bone....

Never heard of her but I like it.

Amazing voice....

She does an incredible version of a Bob Dylan song, amazing vocalist.

My gf likes her music.

Beautiful vocalist. I prefer Joss Stone in that "soul" department though.

Yeah, she's good also.

'Make you Feel My Love' is the Bob Dylan song she covers, I can't see the video Metalrob posted but her version of the Dylan song is stunning.

Yea that song is amazing and def one of my favorites by her..

Joss Stone is pretty awesome as well...

The whole album is amazing. The single is about the most boring song on the CD, and that is saying alot!

I also liked here previous single from a few years back, called "Chasing Pavements".

Can I be an elitist here and say I listened to her long before she was popular? Haha. All my friends are now like, "Duuuuuuuuuuuude, have you heard Adele?" And I'm like, "Yeah, she's that chick I said you'd like a few years ago to which you replied, 'Nice butt-chin'."

That's exactly what I'm gonna say when/if Dana Fuchs breaks big. I even have her personalized autograph on the live DVD.

I can't tell you how many bands/musicians I tried to turn friends onto and they did not care. Then something happens, the mainstream picks up on them, and boom! All those friends are "super fans." It's so lame.

Ive checked it out, name sounds so familiar but it does nothing for me

I remember reading years ago on another board, a guy into Metallica had tried to get friends into them in the late 1980s and his friends hated them, and even made negative comments about them at time afterwards. Then, in 1991, Metallica releases their self titled album (or as it's better known, The Black Album) and these people are huge fans all of a sudden.

People are followers... They have no mind of their own until it's a big hit on MTV.

The sad thing is, is that has almost always been the case.

Yup.

The girl has incredible talent and Im glad she is doing well. Lets hope she stays creative with her sound. She has a ton of different musical offsprings going on at once and it works so well....

That's becuz it went mainstream. I work with a guy who is about 4 years older than me and he loves hard rock and metal. But what he likes is played of rock radio smurf poo like \"thebandthatshallneverbementionedagain\", Limp Biz, Stinkin Park crap like that but when I play stuff like Annihilator, Primal Fear, Sinner, Symphony X he says it's way to heavy and gives me chit.

To each his own I guess he can listen to crappy music like that and i'll listen to good metal.

Trust me, I know. One of my best friends is a girl I dated in high school, and she hated 311 when I first played them for her. I was in a band that did a show with them when they toured their Grassroots album. I thought the music was great, the band members were cool as hell. I was an immediate fan. My friend? Said they sucked.

Cut to about two years later, 311 has a new album out, and "Down" becomes this huge breakout hit. All of a sudden, my friend loooooooooooooooooooves 311! And today, she acts like she's been "down" since day one. Loooooooooooooooooooves that Grassroots album now.

Part of me hates her. Haha.

Her voice reminds me of Janis Joplin a bit

...a controlled Janis. Joplin could sound like a cat squealing at times.

Maybe I'm just a softy, but when I hear music like this with vocals like hers, I always get goosebumps.

Hehe, I really like Adele.. I have both albums on vinyl. Duffy is also very nice!
