Says the one with a picture of Lana Del Rey as their avi. I'm a huge Lana fan, but don't come at Adele saying that she isn't a great writer. Lana makes about 12 songs a year talking about her "baby". Lana almost exclusively makes morose, sad songs that are just rehashes of other songs that she herself has done. 

Oh, come on. Lana may be limited, but she can do more than Adele. Ultraviolence had classic rock influences and sounded very different to BTD (a reason why she lost a big chunk of fans). Honeymoon has trap, jazz, Hispanic and middle eastern influences. The same basic style is always present, but she's done something different with it every time, something which wasn't expected of her. Adele could only wish to have the songwriting talent that Lana possesses. You don't really hear Lana's lyrics anywhere else whereas you hear Adele-esque lyrics everywhere, especially classic songs of the past. She practically said "Everything I do, I do it for you," once, practically a word-by-word copy of Bryan Adams' biggest selling single. At best, she's good but basic. She can't experiment and has relied on the same exact sound from day one with no changes whatsoever. It's a wonder she can differentiate her own songs from one another

:deadbanana:

I thought I was the only one. :teehee:

Glad to see others are agreeing. Spread it, don't let such an obvious copy pass by undetected. I build up a list of songs that are blatant rip offs of others so that I've got something to wipe the smile off the face of anyone who says BTW and EY are the same song.

Another album of lovey sappy or heartbreaky songs :awkney: 

Yay :rip:

I was really hoping she'd bring something else to the table but I guess that's what she's good at. Waiting for 29 *fingers crossed*

Oh woaw, Take a chill pill! Here you are again putting down and dimishing value of those you don't prefer personnally. You are trying to present you OPINION as god given truth. 

First, I think Lana is indeed a excelent writer. But not for The reasons you listed, but on terms of actual musical merrit. Like melody lines, use of couter melodies, chord progression, harmony structure etc. Production isnt that important nor orchestration since its probably made in collaboration with others. Her lyrics are great too.

How about Adele on those same criteria? She is pretty much as good though quite different, more "traditional" in many ways. That doesnt make her bad writer or lyricist on termss I mentioned. She perfectly fine! Her songs could be altered/produced/orchestrated too to sound something "more" however she chooses to present her art in very minimalistic way, in its essence. Lana doesnt, but essence in her work isnt that much superior if stripped down. So don't even try to dimish Adeles talents on the grounds of song writing, not to mention her abilities as singer/interpreter.

And nothing over rated about Adele, her music touches a huuuge amount of ppl. That merrited it's rating! And it not just a question of sales, its about connection to the listener.

And having couple of seconds of same type lyrics that are very very common frases in both songs, doesnt make it copy, so you tried. Lets get back to your pathetic attempt to discredit her after we hear the song. Until that, you just sound pathetic with those accusations.

I think this is genius type hype including the simplicity of it. However it should have been done on a world scale.

well, if you listen 19 and 21 they're pretty different yet is the style of Adele, so...

Come on guys. Don't fight about these two iconic and incredible women. They're both amazing in their own way :hi5:

apparently they wrote about 3 songs together and none of them made the cut - Alive being one of them.
