"Someone Like You" by Adele

I think there are a few versions ....... this one is more mellow.

Very peaceful and loving song when you are in (or need to be in) that kind of mood.

I adore this song!

Most people voices are forgettable. Her voice on this song stopped me right in my tracks. It is so unusual. So special.

I haven't heard the Adele song, but this thread makes me think of the Debbie Boone number everyone went nuts over years ago. Played and played, then...OK that's enough, then...STOP IT!!!, then...it just became a joke. Too much of a good thing.

"You...light up my life..."

Watch the video......talk about stopped in your tracks. I like her a lot.

Crank up some AC/DC or some Led Zepplin and I am happy.

Actually, it's a very sad song. But she's going to find someone else in due time. At least I hope she does!

It appears that Adele, imho, has crafted her music to reflect sadness: heartbreak, lost love, etc. I'm not aware of anything happy or upbeat in her music. Props to her voice, but one wonders if she will ever break out of that mold? I harken back to a multiple Grammy winner his first time out, Christopher Cross, and how he followed up his initial success.

First time to hear it . Too slow for me. Classic rock for me and early motown.

Way over played. Almost as much as Moves Like Jagger. We change the station whenever they come on. My poor daughter is stuck dancing to Moves until July. It's awful.
