[@mrzog12]

There is a reason all the other pop singing "queens" are yet to be seen on one of these.

[@jauhinkivi]

The microphone in question has a hypercardioid polar pattern, which makes it pick up signal from further away and it's also used for us to hear her sing!

[@bradenrodriguez5183]

I gotta feeling this chick is going to be famous, my friends. You heard it here first.

Additionally I do my best to comment with positive notes included. I noticed you commented on another NPR TDC which included The Pixies where you said NPR blew it because a certain song you felt should have been included wasn't. Dude, if you know what's going on, you'd realize NPR has NOTHING to do with what the song list will be. This is left up to the performers as to which songs will be played. It's called TINY Desk Concert for a reason. It is a *small* sampling of the artists' work. Be more positive and your life will become much more satisfying.

She may be a global superstar but this performance stripped it back to just the raw, breathtaking vocals and songwriting she's adored for. You could feel the meaning and emotion behind every lyric she belted flawlessly. And her personality sparkled between songs! Iconic vocals aside, it's Adele's honesty and vulnerability as an artist that makes her music so special. This Tiny Desk showcased that beautifully. What an honor to see one of the greatest vocalists of our time in such a cozy setting. Adele blew me away once again with the sheer power, control and tone of her voice. Every note gave me chills! I'll never get tired of listening to her sing from the heart. This is what true talent looks like. I'm so grateful to NPR for this magical Tiny Desk moment from Queen Adele! 👑*

Goosebumps no matter how many times I hear it

[@abnormallyfunny]

True Adele. Not broken by wealth.

[@christelle4046]

I read the comments before i started watching and read all the comments about the zoom... now that i'm watching and seeing it for myself, i cant stop laughing...Camera man zoom game strong! 💪 😂

[@zelodiaveldschoen842]

🤣 🤣

[@sevarailyasova5431]

😂 😂 😂 😂

[@MattiaTuzzolino]

I’m doing the exact same 😂

[@Julia-zv8uo]

Christelle same

[@monicamorgan272]

😂 I can't stop laughing with the many zooms.

[@patrickhallett6220]

This was actually my first official exposure to Adele, and I was so taken aback by the contrast between her speaking and singing voices. She speaks so softly and almost timidly, but then she starts singing with one of the most commanding and powerful voices I've ever heard. Astounding artist.

[@direfranchement]

She doesn't speak that softly, and there is nothing timid about her speech.

[@winterdreller5840]

What a nice first experience. I still can’t find the first video I ever saw of her. It’s her and her guitar player on the beach I think singing rolling in the deep?

[@Dion_Mustard]

she hardly speaks timidly..she's always F'ing on stage and raising her voice, but I love her regardless. Her voice is unique.

[@darinz7182]

This is npr - she curses more than Trump lies.

[@korokshiding]

@@direfranchement Haha...you took the words right out my brain. She's rough as sh!t, but that's why we love her!

[@DolphinJewel]

Adele truly has a most amazing voice. Love it!

[@patriciaegan7244]

Adele sounds exactly like she does in her radio songs. Perfect pitch.

[@TheSportPsychLab]

Honestly can't imagine how the cameraman must be feeling reading these comments LOL

[@continuousself-improvement1879]

He should feel proud, he instigated all these funny comments and made so many people laughed.

[@florenciaprovenzano6205]

Cameraman, we love you. Kisses (without coronavirus) from Argentina.

[@harleybacon5979]

🤣

[@shanecunnane]

Her vocal control is phenomenal.

[@jameskennedy8099]

Try faouzia seriously!!!

[@ChefBurns1]

When someone can bring a tear to your eyes singing you know they’re the real deal. Love this chick.

[@kennethfitzpatrick7009]

She has perfect tone/pitch. Got goosebumps on the chorus of someone like you. Pure talent.

[@bibliofille_soph]

Just a piano, a guitar, a microphone, and Adele... and she doesn't sing a single note wrong. TALENT.

[@carolynyap6378]

Don't forget the zoom cameraman

[@Peakfreud]

For real, it's rare for artist to sound the same without the studio. Some even sound horrible live.

[@luukwoudstra8903]

She did sing notes wrong, but that’s not that important with live performances. It’s more about intention and overall energy

[@RagnarokCo]

@@luukwoudstra8903 Agreed. I think it adds character and emotion you just don't get from the final polished versions.

[@tailnotale]

No autotune , no reverb, nothing but pure amazing talent!

[@nothing0626]

Cameraman’s like what’s this button for?

[@deivisonn9150]

Não entendi o que você falou

[@bernardobila4336]

O cameraman está tipo, pra que será que serve este botão aqui?

[@keysepulliam]

cameraman: pushes button again

[@mrsme5076]

Lol this is funny

[@seanbarons3718]

Best joke so far. Es muy gracioso

[@choosesfr]

I always loved the version where she sings the chorus in a lower pitch instead of high.

[@MyBridgestone24]

On a work trip, sitting in a hotel going down memory lane… Adele is such a powerhouse. Effortless natural talent and beauty.

[@tnice3125]

Y’all know Amy Winehouse would’ve KILLED these sessions 😩

[@abaynesh]

FACTS

[@pmnsoccer2010]

Ugh yes 😭 would have been unreal

[@pEAcEgrL81596]

That's exactly what I was thinking!

[@kimkardashian6149]

Plenty

[@tugibreezy]

💯💯💯

[@Underwoodforyou]

Today I learned what the back on Adele’s uvula looks like. I can knock that one off my bucket list. Thanks cameraman!

[@belflor]

hahaa

[@edmundomontoya7570]

The focus, intensity, such a beautiful voice.
