Upon this songs release In 2008, I couldn't believe that Adele (someone I'd obviously never met) was able to write my life, write my love & write my pain, so specifically & so, so well, as if she'd plucked it right from my own mind & heart. Her ability to do this for millions of us world wide is absolutely incredible & her huge talent is totally incomparable. For years I used to cry while singing to this, but now I am just genuinely moved & playing the music on my piano feels like such a precious gift. Adele is (IMPO) a true, generational, British icon. A woman history will be listening to for decades & centuries to come. As long as there are humans, there will be love & so we'll always be touched by such creative writing, together with truly beautifully written & played music.

I've been around as a musician, and I experienced the 60s with Dylan and The Beatles. I love jazz and classical, Big Band and Hank Williams, but for my tastes Adele is simply the best popular singer I've ever heard. Add the fact she writes her own songs and they are excellent. Her vocal tone is incredible, with that 'catch,' in her voice. But more so it's the raw emotion she sings with, which goes directly to my heart. Ultimately, that's what I want, I want to f.e.e.l. when I hear a song. Adele has that ability. She's a singer that wasn't a creation of producers and managers. She's authentic and un-produced, and she deserves all her massive acclaim.

I have so much respect for this lady, not just because she has a lovely personality and an incredible voice and song writing skills. But this is a lady that pulled back from her career while it was at an all time high to raise her child away from the public eye. She gave her career up for nearly 5 years to be a mom to her child, and then you look at most stars these days that cannot wait to chuck there child down a runway and on the cover of magazines yet she walked away from it all and still will not allow a magazine to publish a photo of her child. A true music icon and not just a money making puppet. On that note I'm so happy with the surprise teaser she's just realised for her new album. You have been missed Adele, welcome back.

[@BlogBitch]

+Mark Tripton Most women do that, no matter the career women have to chuck it in to have a child. Whereas men just chuck out their spawn and expect the woman to take care of it, complain of the cost and whine if they can't see the chucked out spawn when they want to. And blame their Mother when it all goes wrong.

[@Leo-pp8vf]

+BlogBitch completely disagree! Most women do eventually leave work to return once there child has been born and raised to a certain age, the post I made was regarding woman in Hollywood that jump straight back into work after giving birth due to it giving them extra publicity. In regards to men, I understand your point to an extent, not all fathers are the same. I still stand by the saying it doesn't take a mother or a father to raise a child, it takes a parent regardless of there gender.

Absolute masterpiece… Timeless song.. You can feel she literally sings from heart here, it’s impossible not to sing along… ❤️

[@jameswarne3438]

This performance will forever be iconic! 👏

[@danialicek]

I was in London the night before this and I called the guy I was dating. He was also dating someone else at the time and I made him choose… he chose her. I came back home and watched this performance live that night. I’d kept myself together until I watched this and then completely fell apart. It explained everything I was feeling and I’ll never forget that moment. It was my first ever heartbreak and the one that cut the deepest 🤍

[@Fletcher938]

hope you found the one?!!

I remember watching this. It was like the world stopped and listened. This definitely launched her into superstardom. She's always been great, but this performance was on a whole different level - for her and for the show.

[@Mooncat6]

I'm 62 years of age and I've listened to just about everything you can throw at me. But this is probably the most emotional, brilliant performance I have ever witnessed. FFS....what a superb thing this is......I can't believe it.

[@sabrinanatasha7868]

So grateful to have been here and seen this live. Won a competition at work and got to go. Easily one of the highlights of my life. I wasn't in a dark place then but I have been since and am now and the power of this song brings me back all those years later. Loneliness is real and it hurts. Her vulnerability is beautiful. For anyone struggling right now, you're not alone.

[@AlvinGarvey]

She was so shy towards the end, you could feel her nerves through her voice but she made it through and to think about the kind of artist she has evolved into today. It is so amazing to see artists evolve the way they do throughout their careers. It just reminds you how much we all change as we age. Oh life.

[@TheAtticradio]

Very accurate and astute. I’m guessing all artists are similar to be writing these songs without emotion and keep it all in check and put on a concert. That takes a while to learn

[@AlvinGarvey]

@@TheAtticradio thank you. I totally agree 🤌🏾

[@hosekichan]

I'd imagine it's harder for artist who put their heart and soul on display like that. To me in looked like she was feeling what she sang, reliving emotions and putting them into her performance.

[@AlvinGarvey]

@@hosekichan that's a great way to look at it. I can totally view it that way too now. Isn't it so interesting to see how differently we all perceive the same things??

[@mirfangu]

imo in this case it seemed her deeply felt the lyrics that she was going through a heart break i can tell she was about to cry here. and of course since 19 era, she told so many times she always nervous even it was hard for her to doing a huge concert with stadium crowd.

Im 50 this year and will say this performance by this absolutely beautiful lady was utter perfection ...ive cried at funerals loosing friends to young !! ..My sister and i had a tough time through the divorce of our parents when we young and i found i bottled up all my feelings and emotions for all those years... ..played this with my mum and we both cried hard ....A pain/feeling was released from my heart...Thank you Adele XXXXXXX

Pure goosebumps. Smh. I never had a break up til my husband died 12 years ago. Age 51 then. Never bothered looking for anyone else. No one could ever match our love of 33 yrs. Its no fun alone I must say. I would always know there is no match for what we had. I can't imagine a break up and him still running around out there. We are musicians and I can hardly get thru a full song he wrote. I should shop them around. We played such beautiful musical along the classic rock genre. I miss him dearly. Especially when you hear songs like this. I can feel her pain. Much love to ya Adele.💓

[@pamkernen5322]

[@matijatosovic464]

Norm Ralkie that was at her radio city music hall concert

[@tdtone2]

The crying in the elevator was after her performance at the Radio City Music Hall in New York City before the release of her '25' album. Not after this performance on the Brit Awards. If you haven't seen the Radio City Music Hall performances they are definitely worth a view! Got to see her in Texas on her '25' tour and it is still the best concert I have ever seen. Hats off to anyone who can make an arena sit and watch captivated while you stand still on a stage and just sway back and forth. #legend

I didn’t ‘get’ Adele when she released her first album; promoted as a ‘Soul Artist’ confused the heck out of me. THEN I saw this performance and I totally ‘got’ her; there was so much soul in her voice and performance, that she won me over in a heartbeat. Real music.
