Fantastic singing voice but I wish she wouldn't speak!
Ditto!
I wish she wouldn't appear before my eyes either.
Nice that she hasn't changed. Glorious voice and down to earth with it.
Excellent.
You cant deny that singing voice, outstanding.
Comes across as genuine which is rare these days IMHO.
I wish she wouldn't speak!
Why not? What's wrong with her speaking voice? Or what she says?
Refreshing to hear someone so open, honest and unpretentious.
And I'm not into this sort of music normally, but bloody hell she's not playing games, eh?
Proper talent.
That was excellent and wish I'd been there. Girl can belt them out for sure.
As for her speaking voice, what?
Aye, proper talented she is. Grounded and down to earth? Probably - difficult to comment without actually being mates with her.
[i]Why not? What's wrong with her speaking voice? Or what she says?[/i]
Nowt wrong with the voice or what she says.
It's HOW she says it. Just that accent from a female grates on me, I'd rather hear Scouse (& thats bad enough)
Some of her songs I could listen to all day. Just don't speak in between.
why don't you just put her cd on then, switch telly off, go do something less boring instead!

Ah right, you're hung up on where she's from. How open-minded of you.
Don't ever come to London then; you'll end up exploding with apoplexy....

Got it on me Pod so I might. How is it boring seeing as your'e taking an interest? Or are you being boring?
I must apologise, I blame the Bacardi & Jura Superstition!
I had to google Jura Superstition. I thought it was an eau de toilette.

Tastes like it to some of the uninitiated. 😈

I was just singing the [i]Why Don't You[/i] song in my head and it fell out of my fingers on to the keyboard. 😛
LOL @ Jamie! My lad's far too big to go up a chimney! Mind you, he is....never mind, forget I mentioned anything about going up chimneys.
and it's Caymden!!
Oh yeah sorry, Murray St, Caymden. (is that Caymden Taan?)
I used to go out with her. She was fat and talentless then, I see that she is even fatter and more talentless now. She was crap in bed too, always 'me, me, me.' I think it was because she is fat. Oh, and her voice grated on me too. She had a guaranteed record contract from the fame school, or 'factory' she went to and she never stopped bleating on about it. Some people have to actually work for their fame. Not my fat Adele, oh no. Sorry for the mini rant, but I think I am actually responsible for some of the shite songs on her last album. I broke her fat heart, she broke wind. A lot.
Prima Donna in the making - recently recovering from an operation on her throat, apparently now considering moving abroad as concerned about the effect pollution is having on her throat/voice - least of your worries love, the fags will be doing that for you! She famously quoted that she'd rather quit singing than smoking.

I know where you're coming from OP but I'd much rather listen to her genuine cockney accent than this weird speak teenagers and 20 something's are using "you me though, what you chatting about though, axe me though, like whatever though" etc etc.

Hmmm...
A couple of issues here.

It was the BRIT School. She didn't have a contract from the school, but there was substantial industry support throughout her time there.
She was fat and talentless then, I see that she is even fatter and more talentless now.
Overweight? Yes, she never participated in PE there. Talentless? Nope, her voice was and is amazing. Does she know it? - of course, she was a pain in the arse and very self-assured all the time she was at the BRIT.
How do I know? I taught at the BRIT.
Still, at least you're not bitter, eh Gary?

I couldn't agree more on the accent thing, what accent does the OP have? Just to balance things out, like.

Not really, I assumed gg made the whole thing up.
It's what I assume about almost everything everybody on this site posts, that way I get to retain my faith in humanity.
My guess is that she's slimmer than most of the STW population with a much less whiny voice too.
As for her talent, people in glass houses.....
Amazing voice - never heard her before, was fabulous to watch.
I don't mind her singing, just can't get passed the fact she looks like Matt Lucas in Drag.
Not a big fan of her music - I find her voice has a harshness to it when she goes for top notes that grates on my ear.
As for her size, I don't see how that has a bearing on her musical abilities - I can think of plenty of female singers with big amazing voices, and big bodies to match.

Brilliant - early days but best post of the year so far. It's just what I was thinking.
I reckon she would be a laugh to go on the piss with.
Yeah. She's like a crude 40-year-old divorcee trapped in the body of a 22-year-old.
I find it amazing that someone starts a thread about Adele, and up pops the boyfirend that broke her heart and one of her teachers from the Brit academy or whatever it is called. Small world. I only know 2 of her songs anyway, Mrs Griffin likes her though.
Never mind her accent, what about that laugh?! 😯
Anyway, I think she's great.
She's no Polly Jean.
i don't know who she is? or what she does? (should i?)
am i culturally worse off for this?
You must have come across her here - allegedly overweight, annoying and lacking in talent
does she work in I.T. and still wear jeans with funny pockets and logo's despite being 'middle aged'?

No, she's 22 and has a degree of style. The problem is that she isn't particularly skinny and is also much too successful to be 'STW niche'. She also don't talk in a northern way.
So, epic fail really. Poor girl, she must be gutted.
