Advantages: Different styles, some sad, others you feel sorry for the woman sufferung Disadvantages: Maybe not to everyone taste
...wouldn't think she was only 19. Her voice sounds Soulful/Jazz going to acoustic and pop. The lyrics are very poignant, in the way that it's way it's sung.
Adele wrote every track and the music
Here is my rundown
1 Daydreamer - This sounds like it's based on a boy who is another relationship, or he cheated on someone.
2 - Best For Last - This sounds like the woman is wanting the man to provide and to treat her right. It feels the woman is getting ... ...about love
3 - Chasing Pavements, This is based on a fight that happened, but to me it's like you don't know where to turn in life. It feels like you don't know what to decide what you want in life. Feels like your running a empty pavement and your not getting what you want.
4 - Cold Shoulder - This I think is I think the woman is concerned her boyfriend is up to no good. The woman want's the man to be truthful to her as all she wants is someone ...

Advantages: Good Music, Good Lyrics Disadvantages: The style may get a little repetitive, but that isn't too bad.
...I've come to see that 19 is one of the best albums that I own. Adele's vocal range is amazing and utterly beautiful. Every song has meaning. The lyrics are amazing. Some people may say that Adele is the new Amy Winehouse, but from my point of view, she's better. Her style is unmatched. The smoothness of her voice, her lyrics, and her music is amazing. The length of the album is average. 12 songs is not too many, nor too few. Even though Jazz isn't ...
Advantages: Good, all rounder. Disadvantages: If you don't like a soul/jazz/pop combo, eat elsewhere.
...voice and buy her debut, 19. OK, so it's not as edgy as Winehouse's 'Frank', and lyrically doesn't match Amy's cutting, street-savvy lyrics, but her voice is quite incredible. Raspy and soulful, she's like a warm tub of honey with a twist of lemon. Vocally she sounds way beyond her years.
I love that her image isn't 'the norm' and that she hasn't (yet) been tainted by the media hype. She comes across in her music as a wholesome, good humoured, girl-next-door ... ...by a 19 year old (with a particularly mature voice). Ok, so some of it's a bit too pop-sheen for my personal taste, but when she pulls it off so well, I can't help but join the masses on this one.
Stand-out tracks: Chasing Pavements; My Same; Hometown Glory. ...

Quick review of 19 - Adele
This is a pretty good CD with a varied selection of tracks. My favourites are Chasing Pavements, and Hometown Glory. It is a really good CD if you are a fan of Amy Winehouse, Paolo Nuttini, etc.
The lyrics for this album are really meaningful when living in the city. It is a CD for young adults and teenagers. ...

Advantages: great first album Disadvantages: seems a little rushed in recording it
When I bought this album I thought she was going to be a bit like Kate Nash, but she is not Adele has her own very unique style, a lot more soul and a bit jazzy at times. Adele has a unique voice as it's unlike most other recording artists, the only person that I think she sounds like is Amy Winehouse and their music styles are slightly different.
If you have only heard chasing pavements, don't judge the album on that, because she has a better variety ... ...There are five amazing songs on this album these are Chasing Pavements, Daydreams, Best For Last, Hometown Glory and Cold Shoulder.
What's more Adele wrote all of the lyrics on the album she also wrote most of the music for the songs as well so she is one very talented lady who deserves a lot of respect as there are not many artists these days that sings and writes their own material .
I think that you should give this album a try. ...
