Adele

It's February 29th 2016 and I've been a bit obsessed with Adele for a few months now. I'm not sure exactly when it started, but it started with a video of her singing Set Fire to the Rain. I remember the experience of first watching it being not overly impressed - finding the beginning strange (I guess I must have heard the song before but I wasn't at all familiar with it) but the loud singy bits to be pretty good. However, it latched onto something in my brain, as occasionally happens, and I ended up watching the video regularly, trying to pin down what was interesting about it.
I'm not sure where it went from there but I watched her Graham Norton undercover prank a whole bunch of times watching the reactions of the 'victims', and I really love her live recording of 'When We Were Young' (which I put on my 2016 compilation album). There are a bunch of good videos out there of her singing live. She's not always great live, but when she is it's bloody fantastic.
