I love her! I'd never listened before today. I'm watching her Royal Albert Hall performance. Such a beautifully expressive voice. She's almost brought me to tears.

okay. Carry on...

when I heard her for the first time (single from this past summer), I thought Concrete Blonde had a new album out. Tonally, she sounds a lot like Johnette to me.

I like her voice, but her music bores me.
As a player I'm sure it would be fun though.

Could have been such a good album but the production is terrible.

She does have a great voice! I've noticed even other artists are doing a lot of Adele covers. Perhaps among the best of those IMO is Linkin Park doing a fantastic cover of her "Rolling In The Deep" song.

I agree. Impressive voice, not so impressive music. I'm tired of hearing her songs every 30 seconds on the radio.

Yes.....I still listen to the radio

Today was the first time I ever heard her. My wife had been a fan for a while. I listen to the radio, sometimes, but not usually the current pop stations.
