There is still nothing like new Adele — CraigSJ reviews 'Easy On Me':

United States Headlines News

United States Latest News, United States Headlines

Once or twice per decade she comes back tapping on all our pressure points like a veteran acupuncturist. Photo: Adele/YouTube I thought I was sitting down to write about why the new Adele single “Easy On Me” is devastating but also formulaic, and how it’s fascinating that her intention was to have a single that came from a different place than 2015’s booming, autumnal, conciliatory “Hello,” and how “Easy On Me” touches all of the same points of interest anyhow.

Thing is, “Easy On Me” isn’t for me or you. It isn’t necessarily directed solely at Simon Konecki, the 21-era boyfriend Adele wed in 2018 and recently divorced, either. It’s an account of the dissolution of a marriage for the benefit of the child it directly affected. It’s an impassioned defense of a difficult choice, and a request for grace and understanding. This is not a call to smooth things over with an ex, like “Hello.

This realization quieted my reservations about the song, and on repeat plays, the effortless excellence of the vocals jumped out. Presumably, this is a first take. Adele isn’t the kind of singer who records a zillion passes at a song, then splices a flawless finished product out of them. You’re hearing the original demo, as is reiterated in her recent Vogue cover story.

This is impressive even if, on the surface, this single doesn’t much endeavor to push the singer very far beyond the vibe and instrumentation of past hits like “When We Were Young” and “Hometown Glory,” even if you could hazard a guess as to what it might sound like and what personnel might be in the room — producer Greg Kurstin from 25 is back, and the video is directed by Xavier Dolan, who also directed the clip for “Hello” — before the first eeeee washed over you.

CraigSJ At first, I would have liked to hear only the song. It’s so beautiful and the vocals are pure excellence. But the video is terrible. Extremely over. Especially the intro, dramatized, before the first chords. A big mess. But with the song, I repeat, it was love at first sight.

CraigSJ Was Rolling in the Deep a fluke?
