Unfortunetly, thats men for you. And your in a predominantly male enviroment, so you'll have to up with it

It's some men, some men are actually capable of looking at a woman as a human being rather than an object for their sexual desire.

In fact most of the fellas on this thread were discussing Adele's song-writing ability before a couple of idiots decided they had to make a comment about her weight or hair colour. Newsflash guys, she's not there to turn you on, she's a singer not a prostitute.

[Red Squiggle]

Not a massive fan of hers, sure, she's got a decent amount of power in her singing voice and can pen a decent pop song but there's nothing really exciting about her music for me, although I did love "Set Fire To The Rain" when I first heard it, monumental chorus that.

Here's an amusing free download remix/mash-up of that very song with Skrillex's "Kill Everybody". I think it's quite funny. Koplass may not (although I do agree with her sentiment on gratification and all that).

In what way does that point relate to my post? I'm saying she's a bit shit as an artist, I'm not saying anything about her weight or appearance.

yup, didnt mean to quote you.

[Borninbethlehem]

I tried to download the Adele app on my IPhone, but it wouldn't fit.....

Ok ok, enough of the bad jokes. She has amazing talent and her album 21 is a work of art. If you're dealing with a break up, or lusting after someone, there is no better album to listen to.

[NatD]

The Adele / Egg / Cake joke still makes me Bubble!!!!

[Chivasino]

All over Twitter so could be bullshit. Actually going to delete my post until its confirmed.

Sorry Mods.

[Frank.]

She had surgery on her throat due to a vocal chord haemorrhage, she's expected to make a full recovery within a month or so and now morons on twitter are claiming she has throat cancer.

[Mad Men]

She is a bloody good singer with an excellent range...hope she comes out with more hits..her music is a bit of a nice change from 90% of the crap you hear on the radio these days..

[flemingcool]

Talented and can sing.  Should shut the fuck up and pay her taxes though.

This.

[wz4jc3]

Gutted she won't be rescheduling the cancelled gigs for next year. Oh well, I hope she makes a full recovery soon.

[Fiasco]

I don't like her as a person, well I don't think I would she comes over a bit of a tit on interviews, but that is just me. Her voice is incredible though and she's amazing live, so hope she gets well soon.

[hoonin]

No i dont think so.  I'll stand by my comparison, and I hate Peter Kay as well, he's another fat unfunny bastard

You'd be better off not posting your moronic and misogynistic thoughts on here. They're not wanted or needed.

[Coolie High]

Good, but Amy Winehouse was much better.

[hoonin]

Misogynistic = someone who hates women.  Just cos I said she's fat (fact) and looks like Peter Kay (debatable) doesn't mean I hate women!!!!

OK, let me rephrase this...

You're a moron.

[jillcwhomever]

Got to say I love her album 21, some real classy songs on it. She's a very talented performer, would love to see her live. Hometown Glory though is still my overall favourite though.

[Anywhichwayicant]

21 is a thoroughly enjoyable album.

'Someone Like You' still brings tears to my eyes. Had someone like Bob Dylan written it, it'd be considered one of the greatest ever.

Yeah.

Great song., absolutely agreed. I like turning Tables.

[jillcwhomever]

Yeah.

I agree with you about Turning Tables, One and Only is a great number too.

[Jimmy10Men]

It's all about 'Don't You Remember'.

[nicholasanthony]

One and Only is probably my favourite.

[lauz]

at the minute I like 'Rumour has it'

[No Appreciation of Liverpool Opposition]

at the minute I like 'Rumour has it'

You're a bit late to the party

[The G in Gerrard]

Back with a new single. Don't think the video is good.

[Nobby Reserve]

Back with a new single. Don't think the video is good.

Don't think the song is particularly good, either

[Drinks Sangria]

Yeah the song is shite. I'm not an Adele fan but she's done some very good ballads in the past and has a great voice.

[Sudden Death Draft Loser]

Never knowingly listened to her, but have met her Mum, who's a right hippy.

[tubby]

Saw her in the mid-2000s, supporting Tilly and the Wall (an indiepop band who had a tap dancer instead of a drummer).  She played a short acoustic set, just sat down with her guitar, and while it was clear she had talent and her voice was great, it wasn't obvious that she'd go on to be an absolute superstar.

[Hazell]

Tilly and the Wall. Haven't heard of them for years.

Were you an extra in the Mighty Boosh? 

[Timbo's Goals]

Have to say I just don’t know her stuff or how good or great it is but I do like her version of Dylan’s Make you feel my love and by any standards I think Someone Like You is a special song

[BarryCrocker]

Lover or hate her, but there's sone seriously good shade being thrown in this with regards to calls to have her with backing dancers in her video clips.
