The Bond films franchise has chosen the artist to cover the 007 theme song and clearly a good one ADELE.
Good business call on the franchise and Rick Rubin and XL Entertainment this solidifies her placement in cinematic and music history. Adele whom I share a birthday with has sung from beyond her years I still for some crazy reason not bought 21 bought I did buy 19 the song that caught the strings of my soul was "Chasing Pavements" In where she declares " Should I give up/ Or just keep chasing pavements/ Even if it leads no where" I was going through a similar situation at the time but I chose to keep chasing pavement lol!
Adele has maintained her placement in the Billboards top 100 in the 4th slot since the release of her Sophmore album 21 with the release date of Feburary 4th, 2010 she has now surpassed Micheal Jackson's Thriller and with the release of Sky Fall it will open the ears and wallets of new fans. So to any artist up an coming you might want to ask Adele how to stay relevant, because I think and feel at the end of the day after all the party music fades we want to hear about whats real and she can clearly put that into effect. I will always be saddened that we did not get to hear a bond song from Miss Amy Winehouse she was approached to do so but her producer The ingenious Mark Ronson could not get her away from her distractions of drugs and alcohol. I feel her haunting contralto and her old soul earthiness would of been perfect for the bond song we will never hear what could of been. I really do love Adele and Amy Winehouse their Anglo Soul which the U.K. has always borrowed from the U.S. only to revise to their style and make it better! along with SADE and I wouldn't mind moving over there. I think they (london) pioneers and shifts music like no other country really has and these are artists that I feel a kinship with.
