Turn the Lights Out and Listen Tuesday: Adele- Chasing Pavements

You know, the very first time I heard this song it was in the morning on VH1. It was one of the videos played by new artist, Adele... incredible. I would recommend turning the lights out once you've watched the video a few times. She hardly fits into the Old School Classics category I've been posting on Tuesdays, however, she is an artist with a stronger substance than most artists out today. I love her voice- the way it crackles a bit with her little accent. Awh! It's quite soulful, in fact, I literally drown in this track specifically because I can relate to the words and the feelings the gestures inflict in this video.

Oh, how I love the concept of this video... I could hug it! It's crazy because it shares with you the paradise experienced between the two lovers in the midst of disaster. Perhaps, it suggests the moments someone experiences before something incredibly terrible happens- "my life flashed before my eyes!" In this case, it seems their souls are the ones reflecting since their lives have already expired. Jeeez, truly I hope they (the lovers) were still basking in the happiness they lived after the were killed. But, wait! The deception! That cheating lint licker of a woman! She gives good women bad names!

In any case... this is a great song... get it on your iPod ASAP! AND! She has another track I love off of the same album entitled, 19, released in 2008. That's a must-have! Get it!

Enjoy!
