New artist Adele

I got up this morning extra early since I had orientation at my broadcasting school. There was nothing on as usual since it was before 9 so I turned on vh1 and started watching some music video's.
I really like this new artist from the UK named Adele. She's got an old-school soul sound but it's a nice mix of smokey blues and jazz. She said that she was influenced very much by Etta James and Etta Fitzgerelad. You can definately hear those influences and it was like that type of music but for our generation Y.
The song is called "Chasing Pavement." She said that she got dumped by a stupid loser boyfriend and was all dramatic and ran down the street and was just chasing the ground in front of her.
I thought the music video was a cool concept and if you like Amy Winehouse and Duffy, then you'll really like Adele!
