Triple twist… she doesn’t actually drink the wine.
Adele - 30
- Thread starter Robert
- Start date
I wouldn’t be surprised if they skip I Drink Wine now as a single. The Brits performance didn’t exactly cause a huge spike in streaming did it?
Adele's brand:
God are we really gonna get another I Drink Wine live performance before she fucks off again. Love is a Game deserves s moment if she’s really over uptempo and Oh My God. I would love to hear her delivery on the chorus if oh my god live!
That White shoulder cape look from the Oh My God video is her best music video look she has ever served
I also realise this isn’t hard

But I Drink Wine is already an absolute slog to get through.
A threat.
I mean she hasn’t released as much as a remix for over 10 years now, so I think anybody hoping for extra content from this album is going to be disappointed.
If any song deserves an extended mix single release, it's All Night Parking. Relegating it to interlude status deserves jail time!

Hello! I have 1 ticket for Adele’s Hyde Park BST show that I’m planning to sell as I don’t see myself going anymore. It’s for July 1st 2022. If anyone is interested in the ticket please just let me know.
Ok but the excellent Moto Blanco remix of Set Fire To The Rain being 10 years old just hit me like a brick. Where has time gone?
So no new single? Video? It seems this chapter has been closed?
The way this era came and went but not before she destroyed any resemblance of the “I’m a normal, relatable gal” persona she had.
The album is already out the top 40 in the US which is a bit surprising giving it’s Adele. They should probably release something else to get a bit of momentum but they probably don’t really care, given how successful it was initially.
Hasn’t she still got that random Hyde Park show in like July? That’ll be… awkward haha
But yeah, this ‘era, if you can even call it one, has been genuinely rather terrible. From the LA concert for millionaires, to the Vegas residency, to the way she’s seem checked out since it began, none of it is particularly endearing.
Now, I appreciate she was probably over this album when it arrived, given the covid-related delays. But it really has just left a sour taste overall. Not overly sure where Adele and her brand go next.

Honestly, the worst part about this era for me, on top of everything you've mentioned above, is how she was adamant about 25 being the last part of a trilogy, only for 30 to show up, and be practically the exact same formula, but with a few colourful flourishes in the videos.
And before anyone comes for me with the "but it's what people expect and what sells" I will say that the returns will be more and more diminishing with every iteration of the same formula. The trend is already evident.
