The Adele Ballad Challenge

Someone Like You

After going through 21 a couple of times I had to come back to this poll and vote for Turning Tables! First off, the opening piano melody draws me in much more than Someone Like You, and is sort of reminiscent of Colorblind by Counting Crows but slightly faster. Second, the message as a whole speaks to me more. I take it as a song about a volatile and emotionally abusive relationship that she wants to escape from and that speaks to me a lot more than typical pining-over-your-ex songs. Both gorgeous songs but don't compare to Set Fire to the Rain! Love this album.
