I don't deny Adele's talent but she leaves me cold, this type of singing should evoke emotion and, other than Rolling in the Deep, her music doesn't touch me. All those boring power ballads about being unlucky in love are getting a bit old now, let's hope she has something more upbeat to write about next time now she is in a new relationship. I don't think her voice sounds as good as it used to but she may well be trying not to strain too much so soon after her operation. And, yes, the beginning of this song (the part where she is often shaky due to stage fright) was better than the Grammys performance. It was totally out of order for them to cut her acceptance speech off though - that is what comes of having the BRITS shown on ITV, god forbid they should lose some advertising revenue by letting the show run a little late! The BBC are far better for this sort of thing, I remember when they were showing Gaga's Radio 1 Big Weekend set and she played for far longer than she was supposed to (value for money, that's my girl!), they just put a message on the screen saying the following programme was delayed and would be shown once Gaga's set had finished. Flexibility is essential in modern television and it seems ITV don't have any, reminds me why I never watch any of their rotten channels.
