Check out “Adele” – the new Amy?
What a pleasure to be soothed by a voice as sweet as Adele’s so early on in 2008, particularly when you have as high expectations for this new year as ours . Her folky poppy single Chasing Pavements has shot to the top of the UK charts, she’s already won a Brit Award and her tour is sold out within days of her new song breaking onto the airwaves. You’ve got to love the UK music scene.
The super-soulful guitarist and songwriter from Souf London is only 19 years old, which means we have loads more lovely songs to come *yay* as her voice matures and she hones her style. Her bluesy vocals are reminiscent of the diva’s of neosoul: Lauryn, Alicia… and the obvious comparison would be Ms Winehouse. How refreshing that our Adele is a voluptuous, curvy gal – let’s hope she doesn’t waste away or get caught up in the pressure like mad thing Amy.
