Adele: 19
After the plaudits and awards comes the backlash: Adele is jumping on the Amy train; like the good Brit-school graduate she is, her singing is all about the appropriation of styles and mannerisms. All that about a 19-year-old with, until tomorrow, only two singles to her name. This album has the swamping, overproduced finish and retro finesse that deter as many music fans as they attract. Nowhere is there a song as chilling and fraught as Hometown Glory, her debut single, which closes 19. But give her a break: she has a voice to die for, comes across as genuinely in love with what she does and emerges here (by a whisker, perhaps) as someone worth at least some of the fuss.
