After reading this list of artists.............i just lost my lunch.

Going by your Sir Nose avatar, I wouldn't expect you to like them. razz I don't like D'Angelo's music, but he seems to be a big deal on this site if not elsewhere.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Vicente Fernández, Julio Iglesias, & Luis Miguel could be considered the Latin music versions of adult contemporary and they're really popular. The ranchera genre itself is mainly romantic ballads.

Vicente Fernandez what have to do with all this?

I'm a fan, saw her on first tour. But the songs I've heard from 25 so far are a bit snoozy/too safe.

These numbers siply don't make sense.

This is a below ave sounding cd.

I don't get it.

What is it you don't get Gray? The girl has a lovely voice and has so much emotion when she sings. She isn't shaking her booty all over the place and seems very modest and sincere. I'm not saying you have to love her, to each his own, but I don't get why you say the numbers don't make sense and why you seem to dislike her music so much. She is a breath of fresh air.

I have actually notice this too on other sites. There are a lot of people that hate her or dislike her and IMO its because she is outselling Beyonce and Rihanna. shrug Why I don't know. She makes much better music than them and she does it without exploiting her body or singing about immature bs. No she is no genius.....but considering most of the pop music lacks sucks now, her pop music is definitly a breath of fresh air. You got to give the girl credit for at least trying to make quality music and sticking to a niche that works for her. I personally think people hate on her out of pure jealousy. She is a damn good singer, can emotionally connect and makes quality music whether its boring or not. She may be a lil overhyped but her success is well deserved.

I'm not a huge fan of hers,but I can see why she is so popular.She's offering something that you don't find in alot of today's pop music: substance.

As someone else pointed out,she's not onstage half-naked,shaking her ass,singing dirty songs smile I think people simply get tired of all that.Adele is like a breath of fresh air,compared to that.

Simple question, Did you read any of my post first razz To be honest, I haven't listened. The single sounds so so..... but is it worst than Drunk in Love or Bitch Betta Have My Money?

No... its actually alot better. Its really no surprise why she is so popular, not to mention she has been gone for almost 5 years.

I was just about to say the same thing. We get it. You find her music boring. You've said so multiple times. People have also explained what they like about her multipe times. You don't "get" Adele, so LETITGO (Sherm Stick Edit). music

What is actually "boring" to some folks is actually refreshing from the barrage of beats and ass.

Whether or not one considers something boring or not has nothing to do with the content or the quality.

There are a lot of songs such as classical compositions that I consder to be boring and not my preference but there quality constructed songs. Remember, we are not comparing her to the million of other singers that probably make better music and have better voices. We are comparing her to HER PEERS and the market she co-exists in which consists of Beyonce, Rihanna, Katy, Kanye West, Nikki Minaj, Miley etc and compared to her peers she objectively makes much more quality music.

It's a shame she's not streaming the album otherwise I would have listened to it by now since I have Google Play's music service.

I'm behind Adele's reasoning for this but man, it's a Catch 22 for me.

Very pleased that she beat NSYNC's record for most albums sold in a week. I thought it would stay on top forever. I almost never listen to music anymore so who knows when/if I'll hear it. Haven't listened to anything old or new since the week Janet's new album debuted. It's on my hard drive though.

Yeah, I never thought that record could be broken after the rise of Napster (and everything that followed, technologically).
