You Do Something To Me

I think Paul Weller's song may stick around for the ages. This is a version done for the BBC in 2008, with the then-emerging Adele on vocals.

An Adele-Moby mashup

My friend Samantha put me on to this: a mashup of Adele's single Rolling in the Deep and Moby's Extreme Ways. Kinda works!

Adele live at KCRW

Adele, the young British singer with the old-soul voice, sings Someone Like You live at KCRW in this acoustic performance. Her second album, 21, came out this week; I haven't bought it yet, but will. The advance single, Rolling in the Deep, was a knockout, and ranks with the great "don't mess with me" tunes.

Adele, Rolling in the Deep

Adele gets compared a lot to Amy Winehouse, but she reminds me of Dusty Springfield and powerhouse singers from another era. Maybe that's because there's a retro feel on Rolling in the Deep, the advance single from her upcoming second album, 21, which is out in a few weeks.
