This is really good, right? I liked Adele’s first album mostly because I think she has an amazing voice, but this song — “Rolling in the Deep,” off of her forthcoming album 21 — is kind of a change of pace. The drums, the darker edge, the slow-build momentum. It’s a more mature, full sound than her stripped down, fairly safe debut album. Anxious to hear the rest. All right, enough about lady singers on here for awhile now.
