Adele is such a good singer, from the way she puts down the lyrics of her music to the way she delivers them with such phenomenal and angelic feeling attached with them. Adele is just one luckily blessed vocalist of our time.
from Hello(which everyone seems to OVERknow and sing), mehn over here in naija(the country where i reside in) almost everyone has remixed(cover) the song, from Notable singers and artists to normal youth, to road side hawkers(just kidding though), but the week it came out, i heard about 5-6 covers of the song had already surfaced online. I can swear that i haven't heard any other song been remixed so fast, after about 2-3 days of it been published online, its all because it worn the heart of many. Another thing with these AGE Albums{19, 21, 25}is that they are all similar occurrence for some of us, the story of the break-ups and the make-ups, its one thing for someone to talk about their break-ups and another thing to put it down in a beautiful musical piece.
All I Ask- I have already over played this song like only God knows the number in just bout 3DAYS, mehn just 3 days ooo
Ok, this is a screen shot of my iTunes
And the weird thing is when I first heard this song, i heard it during the 58th Grammy Awards, 2016, that was on tuesday this week, there was an audio engineering problem during her presentation, that made it somewhat not okay, but the thing that got me intrigued till the end was her superior control over her vocals, she didn't let anything mar her voice or presentation despite the sound fails, she still slayed the presentation, so immediately she finished her presentation, i went to google to find out the title of the song she presented during the Grammys, and lo and behold it was All I Ask, as a sharp guy na, i decided to download it, then one website www.stafaband.com just helped me that day and I was able to even download the full album.
Other songs I am replaying over time are:
Sweet Devotion.
Send My Love(to your new lover) and,
When We Were Young
