Reasons Adele is my hero

Is it still cool to like Adele? Yeah? Okay. Just checking.
Even through all the pop culture that surrounds Adele, I love the hell out of her.

First, obviously, I love her music. Her lyrics are ridiculous and powerful. I mean, come on.

You had my heart inside of your hand
And you played it to the beat

I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me, it isn't over

Seriously? That's poetry.  You'll not find that in any other artist.
Besides her lyrics, I love Adele for her pipes. She can fill a room with her powerful, beautiful voice. She can command an audience and keep their attention fixed on her for an entire performance.

Second, Adele is, herself, beautiful. She doesn't dress like a skank, like other artists she is frequently compared with. Adele is a real woman, and she is a lady.


One of the many things she has on the other artists in her category is her pride and her modesty. Every time I see Adele, at awards ceremonies, in music videos, on television, etc., she gets more and more beautiful.

And, the final reason I love Adele:

I don't care if everyone on Earth has seen this picture a hundred thousand times. It's still another wonderful, powerful, beautiful reason to appreciate Adele.
