Agree to disagree. She's a pop singer who has somehow tricked people into thinking there is anything remotely soulful about her.

There's definitely soul in Adele's music, but it's a mix of that and pop, I'd say. She sounds nothing like the two examples you write. I don't like her either way.

As for the Grammy Awards, that list is for the most part extremely depressing. I go with Sgt. Pepper, without a doubt. It's a bit annoying that Arcade Fire got an award for their worst album, I'm sure it encourages them to become even more bland.

I disagree. Rumour Has It was one of my favorite tracks.

No, it's the same genre. It would explain why he would say she has a poor voice if he doesn't like that style of singing, such as Etta and Aretha. It doesn't mean she's an equal to them, it does mean she has a similar style of singing.

They aren't the same genre. Aretha and Etta deal(t) in soul music (well, bluesy soul as far as Etta's concerned), whereas Adele makes middling pop music a la Celine Dion or Keane.

Okay, Rumour has it is the weakest track on there. I will say it's not great. But the album as a whole is pretty fucking solid! Her voice is excellent and very powerful. So you not like soul? Do you not enjoy this type of music? Aretha Franklin? Etta James?

please refrain from comparing adele to aretha or etta thanks

Ah, here we go again. The people on BEA who will trash me for only listening to one or two songs by one of their shitpop artists, then saying that said artist sucks ("You haven't listened to anything other than the radio hits so you can't possibly say this sucks") and then will proceed to also trash me when I listen to the full album in order to justify why I still think the artist is terrible ("Why would you take the time to listen to the album?")

Also, there's a difference between minimalist lyrics ("Everything in its Right Place", where the lyrics are only repeated four times, and he actually fucking writes more than just one line) and just repeating the exact same line over and over and over again ("Rumour Has It", as I've already said). Also, I don't even like "Alive" that much so I don't really know why you're using that song against me.

Anyway, I've come to accept that both of you (and select others) simply dislike me, and will make an effort to bitch about anything I say just because I say it. If it had been anyone else trashing Adele on here, neither of you would've batted an eyelid. And that's fine because I really don't think you're worth much either. Goodnight.

EDIT: Actually, Necharsian, that's not really directed towards you. You tend to be pretty reasonable and make an effort to actually discuss what you disagree with me about. This is more the people who go out of their way to bitch and cry about anything I post simply because it's me.

I mean you were the one who trashed Adele when someone was saying that she was good, so i dont see how youre a victim of anything here.. If you call a genre that someone likes "shitpop" then obviously they're going to be pissed off and rightfully so. You cant expect to say harsh shit about something without backlash.

and nothing bad was even said about you.. all we did was point out that its super easy to go to an artist and find lyrics that are repetitive. Its an incredibly small sample size with no context and a ridiculous argumentative point imo

Seriously - and I've made this point before - there is nothing even remotely good, no musical quality whatsoever, to "RUMOUR HAS IT! OOOH, RUMOUR HAS IT! OOOH, RUMOUR HAS IT! OOOH, RUMOUR HAS IT! (Repeat 77x)"

Sgt. Pepper's is definitely my favorite here, although there are a good 10 or so that are really solid choices, most of which have already been said by someone.

1. Songs in the key of life
2. Graceland (those 2 are the only ones on my chart)
3. Time out of mind.
