Taking a stark turn from the uptempo vibes of 25, Adele’s long-awaited fourth studio album finds her rediscovering her roots. Long, slow ballads with a focus on layered instrumentation and visual evocation bring us into her world as she attempts to make sense of it…to seemingly no avail.
In other words, she’s just like us.

Underrated: Love Is A Game
Favourite lyric:
From ‘My Little Love’
I’m having a bad day, I’m having a very anxious day
I feel very paranoid, I feel very stressed
Um, I have a hangover, which never helps, but
I feel like today is the first day since I left him that I feel lonely
And I never feel lonely, I love being on my own
I always preferred being on my own than being with people
And I feel like maybe I’ve been, like, overcompensating
And being out and stuff like that to keep my mind off of him
And I feel like today, I’m home and I wanna be at home
I just wanna watch TV and curl up in a ball and
Be in my sweats and stuff like that, but I just feel really lonely
I feel a bit frightened that I might feel like this a lot
