Rolling In The Deep producer Paul Epworth pops up on the ghostly hymn of I Miss You. Adele nods along, eyes tight shut. It's about s-x, right? She breaks out another huge laugh. "It's about intimacy on every level. It's about s-x, it's about arguing, one of the most intimate moments in my life. 'Cause you just blurt it out. It's a bit like, a drunk tongue is an honest one. That's definitely my motto, in life. That's why I don't really like drinking no more. The panic you get when you wake up the next morning."

 

 

When We Were Young could be the album's Rolling In The Deep. A great big fat love song, it's a 70s styled shimmery disco ballad produced by Ariel Rechtshaid and co-written with Tobias Jesso Jr., an unknown (until Adele tweeted about him to her 23.4m followers) who she discovered after hearing his song Hollywood. She flew to LA and recorded it on Philip Glass's piano, as you do, at Tobias's friend's nan's house in Brentwood. "It used to be this mad party house and for some reason his piano was there so we wrote the song on that."

 

 

A Million Years Ago, produced again by Kurstin channels Celia Cruz's Tito Puente years and puts more tears in our eyes. Well, my eyes. I miss the air/ I miss my friends/ I miss my mother/ I miss it when life was a party to be thrown /but that was a million years ago. "Do you really like that one?" she says looking genuinely surprised. "That only went on the record three days ago, right at the last minute. It's very stripped-back, it's very 19. It's just me on guitar."

 

 

River Lea [Danger Mouse] is a Hometown 3.0 of sorts. 'When I grew up as a child I grew up on the River Lea/ Now there's some of that water in me. To wit: I'll never change. Tottenham is my mind, body and soul.'

 

 

The Bruno Mars one [All I Ask] is all sorts of everything. 'We was gonna make something cool, but then we were having too much fun.' It throws every piece of Barbara Streisand, Bette Midler diva shtick at the wall to immense, overwhelming effect. It even has a key change. It's brilliantly ridiculous. "I've never sung so hard in me whole life. Can you imagine the fun me and Bruno had making that?" Yes, frankly.

 

 

she went to New York to work with Ryan Tedder, the OneRepublic frontman with whom she'd made Turning Tables and Rumour Has It. What did come out of their time in New York was the song Remedy, about her best friend and her grandparents and her boyfriend, but mostly about her son, who she had with Simon Konecki

 

 

[Max Martin] Send My Love To Your New Lover is a bit like Martin's Can't Feel My Face for the Weeknd - totally unexpected. It has a bit of a calypso vibe ("It's a bit of fun, innit? You ain't got to be dark all the time") and an amazing opening line: This was all you/ none of it me. "I love it, it's ****ing sick," she says. "Straight away, a million people in my life will be like, 'Oh ****, what have I done...'"

That kind of article make me wanting even more to be at the time when we'll know LG5 will be coming and we'll learn that kind of things about Gaga's new music. How she worked for all that time and about the people she collaborated with...

Sounds amazing! I'm so excited for this album :flutter:

 

One question though: Can she please dance for us? :pumpkat:

Cold as ice cream, but still as sweet.

Ready for the disco bops and the bandwagon gay stans. 

You know that's going to happen.  Watch and see.  :trollga:

I don't care what you think about unless it is about me.

That's good, because the first single was very safe and boring for Adele.

I agree. Her voice is perfect for many other genres and the more diverse and experimental she gets from her usual style the better. She will be a permanent power house for decades if she plays her cards right. She has everyones undivided attention right now - so what will she do with it?
