I'm really happy for her. She seems so sweet and genuine. I also love the fact she is still so popular purely based on her voice and not controversy or her looks/over the top outlandish music videos.

I dot think so, she really doesnt need to. I'd like the Jools Holland performance for the video.

No SFTTR video? Lazy times.

Oh, and that Digital Spy article is wrong. The album hasn't sold over 3 million. It's currently on 2,764,400. Dumb times.

Zippy · 28-07-2011, 05:15 PM

She should make a video for SFTTR.

she doesnt even need to be in it. Just something for music channels to play and give it promotion.

No, she doesn't actually need videos for this album as it's selling on pure momentum and word of mouth. But so far she's only made one video for it.

Adele will be performing at the MTV vma's!

wonder what song she'll do?

she'll steal the show, of course.

Jase. · 28-07-2011, 05:25 PM

I assume she'll perform Someone Like You, seeing as though that's her next US single.

joeysteele · 28-07-2011, 05:27 PM

She is absolutely the best Female singer around at present,all her success is well deserved. Brilliant artiste.

Dido loves Adele judging from yesterdays post on her Facebook. Lets hope she feels the same when 21 overtakes her UK album sales(Dido has 2 albums currently with bigger sales).

Callum · 31-08-2011, 02:15 PM

Turning Tables is apparently the fourth single, hope this one will have a video.

A good choice

UK sales 2011

1. 2939800 Adele 21
2. 965800 Adele 19
3. 694600 Bruno Mars Doo-Wops & Hooligans
4. 673000 Rihanna Loud
5. 537000 Lady Gaga Born This Way

Adele on the verge of 3mill for 21 and 1 mill for 19(just this year). She really is untouchable this year. Nobody close.

and considering that top albums often sell 2-300k in the christmas weeks her final 2011 sales will be astonishing!

of course!

Im guessing near to 5mill also in America now SLY is set to get to number 1 next week on billboard.

I thought she was a little sub-par at the VMAs, but that might have been because of the atmosphere. It wasn't quite as spellbinding as the Brits or Jools Holland performances - maybe she's tired of performing it though.

I think it was stupid to do that song (I know why she had to). She'll never recreate the atmosphere of the Brits though, that was a one off thing.

well its been top3 since release in feb virtually. Moving up to no1 frequently. It's already over 3mill and now SLY has done the brits effect again and given it a new lease of life. Not that it even needed it tbh.

SLY selling huge but radio play has to catch up for billboard no1.

Well IIRC it takes about 180K to get number 1 and thats a minimum could be a lot more by year end.

We agree again Joey,I posted something similar then saw your post,lol.

Zippy · 31-08-2011, 10:19 PM

you can be no1 on billboard albums with around 80-90k these days. Adele has been selling steadily that number with occasional bursts of over 120k. Its all added up to a huge amount and is still gaining momentum.

Worldwide she's still right up there in most countries top 5. This album just will not quit. Its got 3 strong singles doing the business everywhere.

Smithy · 31-08-2011, 10:20 PM

she's on JR on Saturday after XF, hope she does SFTTR
