CarlD.Jul 31, 2008Adele's songs may not be as catchy as Duffy's or as professionally written as Leona's, but the lyrics are from the heart and the voice behind it all will put Miss Lewis to shame.

May 14, 2012In my humble opinion, one of the most addicting albums I've ever heard. I wont bore you with mundane details, but its just flat out easy listening at its finest. It's bursting with personality. My only minor complaint is that track 7 "First Love" is underwhelming and feels a little out of place, but its still a solid song. Give this album a listen!

May 30, 2014"19" introduced us to the amazing singer-songwriter Adele. With songs that are just emotionally satisfying as they are catchy; it just shows that this woman is here to stay.

Dec 19, 2014Great debut album.

Jun 18, 201819 is a really good album for an-almost-self-written album. The lyrics are a little awkwardly positioned, but it's not bad overall. It's very enjoyable and exciting. "Daydreamer", "Hometown Glory", and "Chasing Pavements" are incredible songs that define the album
-
Oct 24, 2016Great lyrics, poorly music, incredible voice. This album is amazing to hear. One of my favorites from Adele. I'd like to hear what next (hearing her albums for the first time)

Nov 24, 2016Insanely talented English vocalist and songwriter Adele debut album is to me the best debut album ever. She use her perfect vocals and her song writing skills to make a amazing album.

Nov 2, 2020Excelente disco para ser escrito prácticamente por Adele, las canciones son hermosas y la producción es un recordatorio de que en pleno siglo 21 aún se puede hacer música de calidad

BillL.Nov 27, 2008This album sounds better after several playings. The artist is young and a little unfinsihed at this stage but is very talented and has a good voice and style for singing soul. I have come to really appreciate the album and play it frequently now. The music has real character and is cut above the polished but empty faire that is typically served up from recording studios these days.

PedroP.Dec 21, 2008Best album of 2008 for sure, Adele isn't anywhere near Amy Winehouse, but she's going at the speed of sound. She has a beautiful soulful voice and lots of charisma. Maybe some lyrics are a little boring or too good natured, but that's Adele, she's not some kind of pop diva that wears almost no clothes and jumps around with plastic boobs, she's a true diva, Aretha style.

May 28, 201119 is a complete album. Catchy some times (Best For last, Chasing Pavements...), sad (First Love, Daydreamer...) It's a must for any jazz, blues, pop lovers. And what a voice!
Awards & Rankings
-
A beyond stellar debut in both quality and originality.
-
As is to be expected given Adele's tender years, thematically things are a bit monochrome.... All this, however, is forgiven with a listen to the highlights, such as the sweet acoustic guitar-led 'Daydreamer.'
-
The co-writes--not as many as you might’ve expected--generally boom from the speakers. The self-penned efforts are bare-boned, erratically excellent but frustratingly blighted by Adele’s penchant for going beyond her capabilities as a vocalist.
