Traffic land

There are some songs I love and others I’m a bit meh, and some that annoy me (Hello for example).

I love Rolling in The Deep, the acapella version. I’m fairly convinced listening to this stopped me throttling my ex at various points.

I can appreciate she has talent so no not over rated but she's not to my taste.

Her first album 19 was her best...but she has done the same as most artists now and churns out the same old shite over n over...shame as she really is talented!

I don't rate her song writing, and I don't rate her singing.

I mean Lisa hannigan gets 300k views, and 1 million only on videos. Home is way better than anything adele did, which means adele with 2 billion views is like hugely over rated to me.

I'm not a fan purely because I find her stuff to be "music to slit your wrists to" ... her voice isn't bad but must she sing so miserably?

All huge artist are over rated in my eyes, they only are where they are because of promotion, there are none recording performers that are far better in my eyes than half that are in the charts.

But Adele is fantastic. Her voice is beautiful and powerful. And someone who sings with emotion which you don't see often anymore. She's fit as well which helps.

Over rated? Maybe, but she deserves the accolades she has.

Great voice but more often than not grumpy songs.

Bit like Sam Smith. Yeah Yeah we get it - you broke up. Please spend the next 2 albums telling us about it.

She writes her own material which is always a bonus .

She sings and writes from the heart in the tradion of all the best singer songwriters .

She has a great rapport with her audience .

Yes I think she deserves the praise that she gets

couple, us we him her.

I don't own a single song of hers.

However I think she is great,

Not only that but she has an amazing personality,I'm sure she has the occasional diva meltdown but when you earn the dosh she does why not?

She always comes across as pretty normal and humble.

I admire her hugely. She’s worked hard over the years and often refused to fit the mold.

Her songs are great for belting out in the car

Not my cup of tea, there's no guitar riffs or 'smash the dash' type drum riffs.

I have always been a fab because the lady can actually sing and is a natural.

Shit thing is...her material is all the bloody same! It's like a depressed persons outlet kind of thing!

Amazing talent...just needs some variation

In a nutshell, great voice decent songwriter, struggling to keep up with very high early standard.

She has a great voice, I also find it all a bit depressing. I honestly think that if we're looking at larger than life female singers, that Alison Moyet is far far superior vocally..

I love some melancholy in my music. I appreciate that she writes her stuff too but she's not massively for me. Is she overrated? Who am I to say what music other people choose to part their hard earned for? Going by sales alone it would suggest that no she isn't.

I think she is good (not my kind of music but very hard to escape her) until she speaks instead of singing she really needs to sing everything and never actually speak

She isn't shite, just a bit naff. Could be better of she could sung something more fucking cheerful for a fucking change

Not my bag. She's in a rut with her song themes... 'we broke up - I'm sad - I'm gonna stalk you and make you feel bad'. Her song 'someone like you' really sets my teeth on edge when she goes for that screechy high note!
