From the Music Box: Adele

If you have yet to board the Adele train...you just don't know what you've been missing. The British songstress has taken the music world by storm, winning a Grammy for Best New Artist earlier this year. She is absolutely one that stands out in the endless sea of mediocrity in the music world these days. Her album, 19, immediately found itself in constant rotation in my CD player. Her soulful, soothing voice is the perfect complement to an album that is definitely all about the heart. This song, one of my favorites, is a remake of a Bob Dylan tune, Make you Feel my Love. It's just classic Adele singing over a piano and strings. One thing I really like about this video is that she is singing live...now how many artists do that these days? Rihanna...never!!! Britney...please!!!
I love it! If you've ever felt the joys of love, Adele will remind of you of the power that love holds. After all, when you really love someone, you'll "go to the ends of the earth for you...to make you feel my love."
