Oyemiamor 40 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 (edited) This is an interesting article from Rollingstone comparing Adele's 21 to Alanis's Jagged Little Pill. It talks about how Alanis's music wasn't the status quo of the time and how "you oughta know" wasn't even expected to make it to radio because of Boys2Men, TLC and Mariah Carey style music that was the most prominent. It is interesting to take into perspective in today's charts, it seems like it is almost something cyclic that happens every 10-20 years to change the landscape of music. Or at least shake it up a bit. http://www.rollingst...e-pill-20120613 Oh and as an aside to Valentino: they reference how Alanis really didn't like all the attention (similar to how Adele is acting) and eventually Alanis kind of went away from popular music and did her own thing. So I think there is some good evidence in there for you of how Adele will proceed with her next album. EDIT: also is it true that Adele only co-wrote "rolling in the deep"? I thought she wrote all the songs on her album? I am reading comments to the contrary. :confused: Edited June 14, 2012 by Oyemiamor Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just A Holy Fool 1,949 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Its so funny hoe people thought Lana would reach Adele's heights lmfao Don't care about her success (or lack therof). Lana is a gem and Born To Die (album) is amazing This is an interesting article from Rollingstone comparing Adele's 21 to Alanis's Jagged Little Pill.

I thought she wrote all the songs on her album? I am reading comments to the contrary. While I've often compared the JLP era of Alanis' and Adele and 21, the two albums are quite different. RS establishes that, but I find their need to compare reaching. JLP was far more of a diverse album compared to 21.... and much more layered and complex.

Yep, told ya'll. Thanks RS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arturo 40,746 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I'm surprised that the standard version of Looking 4 Myself just dropped out into oblivion Usually during a new mainstream release dont both versions stay in the top 10 for at least a week?

I don't know. That is why I am asking. I also am rethinking, did I read it wrong? The people commenting on the RS article were saying Alanis wrote all the songs and Adele only co-wrote them? Maybe that is what they meant? I don't find that to be true either. Pressed Alanis fans :eek: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
