Adele deserves every award she's nominated for. What a talented young lady. I just love her.

Congratulations Miss Adele.

I do like me a bit of Adele!

[smark21]

Given that the AMAs are about popularity, she has a good shot of winning some of those statues. I read last week her album has sold the most this year by a wide margin and has not fallen out of the top 5 since it came out early in the year.

Heard Adele talking a few weeks back on the radio, and she was complaining about the amount of tax she has to pay. This is in a time of deep recession when many people have no jobs and millions of others are being exploited and she is just whingeing about not having a few more million. That was enough for me. But as they say each to his own. Sorry to bring in politics but I was rather incensed.

Maybe for her next album she'll do a cover of "Taxman" by the Beatles.

I like her--and that song she has out is refreshing due to the simplicity of the lyrics and backing track.

Is Adele British or American?

Is Adele British or American?

British. But that's not why I can't stand her. It's her voice and vocal style I don't like. It's too countryfied.

Yeah? Well i'm pissed off at how much taxes I have to pay, and i'm not wealthy like she is.

I'm sure once she finds out you don't like her voice, she'll change it for you in order to have you in her corner.

Nah! Her next album is gonna be country.
