How 2016 in music will look: Considering Adele won't be nominated for Grammy's next year because it's past the deadline, this is more appropriate for 2017. Also, it's stupid. She's not holding a Grammy award in either gif. THIS is a Grammy award. Considering Adele won't be nominated for Grammy's next year because it's past the deadline, this is more appropriate for 2017. Also, it's stupid. For real. Adele's and Taylor Swift's reigns aren't happening at the same time (1989 is on its fifth single and won't likely have more than one more) and their materials won't be nominated against each other anywhere. It was less to do with Adele swiping awards from Taylor and more about usurping the pop crown in general, like some artist does every couple years. All in good fun.

It's light-hearted fun about how Adele is a massive player in the music industry. The first one, though, is annoying because it singles out one artist in particular. Which would be cute if those two artists had issues/history with each other in some shape or form, but they don't. It almost seems like flamebait to me.

So I like this, but don't love it enough to be hearing it non stop for several months. The verses are stronger than the chorus for me. With that being said, I like Adele and want to see her smash so wishing this all the best and hoping the rest of the album is stronger! I will say the video was annoying though with the talking in the background. Is this a new trend with music videos all of a sudden

I mean, Katy and Gaga had no beef either when the Prism truck was hit, but you had no issue liking the posts ( A and B) that alleged Gaga was the culprit. Not to mention Taylor actually did make that face when Adele beat her at the 2013 Golden Globes (see below at 0:45). Not my fault if it makes for comical gif material.

I took the Adele vs Taylor gif to be that because the camera is always on Taylor in the audience, in 2017 we'll basically see Adele constantly on stage while the camera constantly pans to Taylor in the audience.

It still make me crazy when Taylor does the whole "OMG I didn't think this was going to happen!" shocked thing whenever she wins something. And then she seems to be looking around to see if Kanye is going to run on stage and interrupt her. It's so terrible.

I can just imagine the pop bars if CITW were released in the digital age, lol. Like the #2 song 0.00001, and the #100 song 0.000000001 Ha! Imagine if we had pop bars back then - considering how record companies limited stock/didn't release singles back then. Of course we'll never know, but an not insignificant number of ppl bought it because it was a physical momento/keepsake - something that wouldn't translate to digital. As far as 'Hello' it will be interesting to track streaming - obviously huge curiosity factor. Repeated viewing/listening will determine whether it's an 'event' single aka Madonna's GMAYL or another iconic addition to what is becoming a timeless pop catalog. I do believe like Sade & Enya before her, ADELE is producing a body of music that won't feel dated. I am legit at you trying to use GMAYL as a possible comparison for Hello's success.

It really puts into perspective how much Hello is dominating, because it's not like Sorry's own numbers are mediocre at all - it has also been comfortably ahead of everything else since its release.

Adele keeps breaking records. In three days, “Hello” has sold more than 750k across all platforms and could possibly finish the week with 1 million-plus. That follows the single’s new one-day record of 400k-plus. Per label sources, "Hello" also set the single-day U.S. streaming record on Saturday with a whopping 2.3m total streams. The previous record-holder was Columbia labelmate One Direction’s “Drag Me Down,” with 1.8m U.S. in its first day. And it's not like Adele is driving fans to Spotify and Apple Music to get those numbers, as Bieber and 1D have done. Indeed, she's not doing anything—it's happening organically. ( HDD)

So refreshing to see a singer achieve success on their talent alone.
