    She gave us what some artists always try when they say they're releasing a dark album. My Little Love, I Drink Wine and Woman Like Me are the highlights.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Adele toca profundamente todo seu sentimentalismo de uma relação sem continuidade e um amor acabado, sem volta para o passado, expressando muito bem em cada sonoridade de cada música presente nesse álbum, um divórcio doloroso, uma voz encantadora, um trabalho perfeito.… Expand

    Um dos melhores álbuns, já feitos, achei que depois do 21 ela não iria se superar mas conseguiu, uma obra de arte.

    Masih terngiang betapa nada, musik, dan suara Adele sampai saat ini. Untuk yang tidak suka dan bilang bahwa album ini mediocre, mungkin perlu memeriksakan telinganya. Justru karena album ini berbeda dari musik-musik/gaya musik saat ini.

    Jujur saja saya menikmati setiap lagu dan pergantian topik dari lagu ke lagu di album ini. Semakin berganti lagu, emosinya pun semakin dalam, puncaknya ada di lagu 'To Be Loved', dan dillepaskan dengan lagu 'Love Is A Game'.

    Buat saya, lirik di bagian verse yang panjang justru membangun emosi di setiap lagu. Memang, pada awalnya saya berpikir sedikit bosan, karena selama ini selalu mendengarkan lagu-lagu yang versenya pendek. Tapi, pemikiran ini justru berubah setelah sehari kemudian saya selalu terngiang nada-nada di album ini.

    Enam tahun tidak sia-sia. Diberi oleh Adele dengan lagu yang rata-rata memilliki durasi selama 6 menit! BRAVO!    … Expand

    I don't know if it's her best album to date, but it is brilliant and definitely much better than 25, too bad my favorite track "wild wild west", is not included in the main version of the album.

    This is the Best album of the century. Adele shine bright like a diamond with the pop music "Oh My God" and make us cry with the "To Be Loved".

    30 is a very personal album and the way Adele takes you with her in her journey is marvelous. Her story telling is second to none and the writing is still impactful than ever. Adele's vocals are strong as at any point in her career and she takes risk in this album that are more than welcome and she does it wonderfully. Easily, album of the year.

    Adele has had bigger, bolder hits on other albums. But this is her best album beginning-to-end. Raw emotion. Superb songwriting. And that voice. Flawless.

    Adele made a diary, of herself and to herself. The album is so personal that it gets very hard do connect with it. Besides, the songs lack criativity and appeal, turning boring somehow.

    At time the Sims game comes to mind whilst listening to the album. The monotomous tone of the album is umbeqrable at times and I found myself wanting to skip songs quite often. I was about to cry, not from the sad lyrics, but from the dragging on of the album. Other than Easy on me the only track worth listening to is I drink wine.

As expectativas para o novo álbum foram muito altas e em todos os sentidos a cantora Adele cumpriu as expectativas dos fãs e dos consumidores da sua arte.
    O álbum contempla um período turbulento na vida da cantora, o divórcio com seu ex-marido Simon Konecki e o crescimento de seu filho Angelo, no meio da história. O álbum 30 pode parecer outro álbum da Adele sobre decepção amorosa, dessa vez um divórcio, mas a experiência é muito mais imersiva que um simples divórcio.
    Adele nos conta o âmago do seu sofrimento, a solidão de uma mulher perdida em seu casamento, não muito triste e não tão feliz, empurrando com a barriga a comodidade da sua rotina, em prol de dar ao filho a família nuclear que nunca teve. Adele rompeu um casamento e se conheceu mais, foi ótimo mergulhar um pouco nos sentimentos mais profundos da cantora, ela nos mostrou como é lindo ser intenso e sagaz.    … Expand

    Una puerta nunca antes abierta por Adele donde desnuda su composición con tonos únicos y diferentes que enriquecen su gran capacidad creativa, cada canción es un paso a la gran historia que nos cuenta de su vida con géneros nunca antes explorados. Sin duda el mejor álbum creado por Adele hasta el momento.

    It is definitely one of her best albums, but at certain points it feels like some of the songs are little too long and stretched out to 5-6+ minutes. The overall content, lyrics, vocals, and instrumentation is phenomenal! This also has got to be one of her most vulnerable albums lyrically and vocally. And in general it is a very good album that I recommend listening too.

It is fantastic when thinking of it on its own though.… Expand

    While Adele has changed her sound a little this time around, it gets tiring after a while to listen to the same heartbreak songs and sadness three albums in a row. It's sad that she doesn't challange herself to write about other themes and topics, I mean the world just has a pandemic, and here we are again, singing about failed relationships.

    30 is so vulnerable that, I felt everything Adele sang about, something that hardly happens to me, especially with albums. My best tracks are To Be Loved, it is so deep that I saw my self hugging myself after the first listen. I’m glad she is not in that state of mind at the moment, I’m happy for her.

    Beautiful record. Grand melodies and neat story telling. The sound is still very Adele but very different; growth if you may.

The orchestra, Adele's improved voice and beautiful story telling makes 30 and experience, and one full of heart wrenching and tears.
    She caves into the clamour of her music critics and attempts a few upbeat tracks with somewhat reggae and country influence. It's distinct, and it's where the album feels nadiral. But don't get me wrong, experimenting with her sound was a brave and respectable choice. This is a solid record, and the songs sound like they're gonna stick for quite a while.    … Expand

    Despite her albums being snapshots, sometimes a little more diversity in subject matter would be a good thing. Ultimately, while some intriguing risks have been taken, 30 is probably the weakest, as well as conversely the most intimate and in many ways bravest, Adele album to date.

    There are no glaring missteps, and it’s generally a very good effort from a singer who could have crumbled under the pressure of heightened expectations, but instead continues on the path she forged for herself.
