Thoughts on Adele? Why do normies like her so much but hate any other vaguely sad sounding music?
She embraces weight acceptance. She has a good voice dont get me wrong but people act like shes a fucking savior
I suppose marketing's got something to to do to do with it. The same could be said for any artist who achieves mainstream success while tons of similar ones fail.
I have a friend that thought Carrie & Lowell was too sad to listen to but regularly cries to Adele.
Same friend also loves Justin Timberlake, Coldplay, Maroon 5, Bruno Mars and anything top 40.
She generally hates my music, so one day I put on Carly Bae Jepson for her benefit (a compromise): "ugh what is this".
I think it's marketing. Social accepted and popular music acts are fine to listen to, and anything not on radio isn't good quality/worth listening to.

Carly is shit, though. She's also peddled by everyone and their moms.

Successful for the same reasons that anyone you see blow up on a network TV talent show are successful. Sob story horseshit because she's overweight or bullied or whatever. It's easy to think she has a good voice but her technique was appalling; she shredded her larynx and had to go in for surgery if she ever wanted to sing again.
The songs themselves are samey and saturated in these bombastic arrangements. "Hello" is especially guilty of this. But people eat it up I guess.

Her hits have amazing vocal melodies from a pop viewpoint and her voice sounds good.
As long as Sufjan becomes capable of writing a vocal melody like that and will be able to deliver it like that he will be the next mainstream poster boy, there are no conspiracies here.

This. Normalfags have the greatest herd mentality.

Is it because she sings very loud like everyone on the Voice? Is that something normies like? Why do they like that?
