Just One Woman and a Piano... No need to count the mic....but I agree it's incredible

Belu

. J Ĺ....

Astonishing

@Pain Is God Just playing demo mode and fake hitting the keys. We all did it, ;)

Especially with all that shit falling on him at the end...

Like Phil Collins famous bumnote on the Against all Odds intro on Live Aid in 1985

Thats what professionals are for!!

@Mikael B and 7 years later, the woke police shows up. God forbid someone recognize talent on a UKposts video and comment on it without looking up the persons name and reading their life's work.

That would be Dan Wilson of Semisonic

May but close 😂

23 isn't very young depending on what life you've lived and upbringing but I know what you mean, must be scary either way to sing in front of that many people and pull it off like she did ❤

i Listen to her songs every nigth,,,, i want to go to see her live show,,, great singer

@@isururangana4468 Yes me too! I didn’t have a chance once she never came to my country. But when she does I will see her live. I love her and her music.

Me too bro,,, look like you are a good man,, 💪

@Jeffrey Allan Harmon Jeff 😢😢😢😢

She's forever my idol and I love her and always will till the bitter end.

Clever, relevant comment.

@@claudesclaws2009 It is. It shows that even though you’re a rapper, you can still enjoy Adele. Proves just how great she is so yeah, pretty relevant

@@mugiwara6967 Kinda funny too. I'd just posted this to facebook sayin' the same (not as clever as your delivery). I'd been here, so found you.

@@mugiwara6967 Languages, right?

Stormzy been saying that lol

this gave me chills

Wouldint say she blew up over night she’s always been around. Chasinng pavements was a smash back in the day!

@@kingthorin8119 "shes always been around" she's been around since this performance... which was 11 years ago... not saying she wasn't successful before this but she definitely blew up around this time

I remember it too. It was magical. Everyone everywhere stopped and felt every note with her.

The intro tells you she was number 1 in 17 countries at the time of the performance? What are you talking about

Same in our house friend

Yeah, no matter who you are, this is one of those performances that you can't not feel. It's amazing.

Best shut up... Adeles got a limited voice

I honestly prefer this than the official video. It’s so authentic and you can tell she FEELS it! Absolutely one of my favourites ever!!

@@alexandrajade5866 Absolutely have to agree with that. I always think the reason she cry’s is that she knows she absolutely nailed this and this is likely one of the best performances of her life😊

She’s flat in a good part of it. Don’t believe the hype.

I agree with you 💯%

The same as everybody else in that situation.....only difference is she's a genius song writer 😉

Wake up alone - Amy winehouse ;)

Love is a losing game - Amy Winehouse

All too well - Taylor Swift

Try piece by piece - kelly Clarkson

@burteriksson she literally complimented here dude . Gtfo

@burteriksson lol sorry bout that

She's just a beautiful person, inside, outside, musically, personally.. everything.

@burteriksson why?

@burteriksson i don't understand why would You be dissapointed about that?

Me! 😂

Me !

me!! imm back on my adele obsession

🙌🏻Me too 😀

Εγωω!

This song will stay forever, it is a masterpiece. Those lyrics will always be relevant

,💯💯💯💯💯💯💯😭

You know how the time flies... 😉

agreed Ricardo!!

🥰

❤❤❤

Exactly

Amen

💕💕💕❤️xxx

She's amazing live

Agreed

honestly I agree her naked voice is such an honour to be aqatianced with it

wow you should write music...your awesome

That was beautiful writing. What a lovely string of words you've spun. Well done to you too!

kim stasenes exactly

Poet spotted

Perfect synopsis ✨

I was in that audience!. Her performance was breathtaking !! I could relate to that song so much at the time as I went through the first heartbreak with my first love. Never forgot the.feeling

Taken aback !

Yeah man

yea mate

Little ol me...😊😊❤

Me

i am... still tears flow

Lol

It’s funny because before Adele, Rihanna was on the stage with dancers, fire shows etc.

@@NB-nh2sf Rihanna isn’t on Adele’s level though to be fair.

I agree. I'm the same age as you and she is the best artist to come along in a long time. I just love her voice.

Good news hertsman5 - She's available on vinyl too! ;-)

What about Ed Sheeran

@@ashleycrystal9719 Not in the same league. :-)

Nikolaucz Naum Ed Sheeran is better.

Aà

Exactly

I would not just say she had her Heart broken as almost every one has been Broken Hearted once in its Life. Her ability to write her experience is, at least, as much important as any experience she can be through.

+Mark Tripton Most women do that, no matter the career women have to chuck it in to have a child. Whereas men just chuck out their spawn and expect the woman to take care of it, complain of the cost and whine if they can't see the chucked out spawn when they want to. And blame their Mother when it all goes wrong.

+BlogBitch completely disagree! Most women do eventually leave work to return once there child has been born and raised to a certain age, the post I made was regarding woman in Hollywood that jump straight back into work after giving birth due to it giving them extra publicity. In regards to men, I understand your point to an extent, not all fathers are the same. I still stand by the saying it doesn't take a mother or a father to raise a child, it takes a parent regardless of there gender.

+Mark Tripton Unless you know her personally, I don't know how you come to that assumption. She is well documented to have performance anxiety issues and is just as likely to have semi-retired after banking 50 million.

+BlogBitch 1) Tries to reason with a man 2) Stereotypes all men 3) Expects the man to agree

+Mark Tripton She has a very clear idea about who she is. I hope I can be like her.

Really.....wow . How did you know though....

I wish I could come up with some really exotic reason but I can't it was on the news

@@gerardwhite2689 why you wish that 😚😚 it's fine

Thank you

I was at that BBQ with Adele.. It was shit so we all turned up late to the Royal Wedding, had a voulevant and went back to Fat Darrells for a Chinese.

George Michael was the same - utter musical genius and a lovely guy to boot.

👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌

Na. Definitely did the song justice

I really loved what he said afterwards!" Wow, wasn't that amazing? You can have all the dancers, the pyrotechnics, all the lasershows you want... But if you sound like that... All you need is a piano! Incredible."

Tanvir Sifat we all heard what he said you didnt need to write it down

Seriously, dude? Here's a thought. When you get a minute pull your head out of your ass.

***** Nothing compares to a live performance...

She had a grammy before this but def was a game changer

RuReady115 yes, it very funny that many people was not aware of that. when she got bigger in USA for examples , they were shock she had success with first ablum 19 in uk/europe.

+raquel very true, to pull off a ballad like this, note perfect, in front of such a huge live audience is the mark of a true superstar.

MJ she got bigger in the U.S.A. ,!!!!! Must have been the cream cakes 😂

Forever

She's 1000%

Outer beauty is a gift. Inner beauty is an accomplishment.

Meee

Absolutely. No reason to stop listening to the classics Cedric, be it the 7th May 1824 or the 11th January 2020. A hit is a hit my friend.

Incredibly brilliant

I could just listen to hear her talent forever, in fact, when they put me in the ground, im going have all her music put onto a double sided tape, then have a sony walkman wired to a car battery and then put the best headphones on my head so that i can listen to her into the hereafter.

And the guy who plays the piano ehekk

I'd be honored if some Adele fans who appreciate 80s/90s classics would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of PURPLE RAIN by Prince and PRAYING FOR TIME by George Michael on my YT channel in tribute to 2 of the greatest vocalist-songwriters in music history. Live acoustic with no autotune. Peace and stay safe in the '020s.

Yep the best I taught u music to understand the concept of the song? The meaning feeling truths

Just started tearing up at that line 😫

My bittersweet is I became disabled (through illness) and their life improved. Sometimes it's not just love that's bittersweet.

Kudos for your and that audience’s reaction. Contrast that with the seemingly unfeeling commentator and audience in this video: An artist bares her soul and the audience just cheers - no wonder many artists have psychological problems.

okay

@@gevangasteren nigga what??

Right, I remember watching this live like it was yesterday. Not one dry eye in my house that night

Yip 👏😭

Ditto. This performance is in my top. Unchained Melody live is number 1 Disturbed's version in Conan number 2 and this at 3. That's the performance that changed her career.

This and Street Spirit live in Yokohama are probably my favorite live performances

Tim Hartings the combination of the lyrics and coming back to music after a break

BJ Baratti Wow you certainly have a way with words. But why so philosophical? This is just a website where you come to watch videos and maybe post a passing funny comment. You’re boring the hell out of everybody BJ. This is the internet, no one cares about what you think, write or just you generally. Fuck outta here with that BS

Mad lad

He is fantastic!

because he's not singing the song🤣

Absolutely, the fact that he takes her cue to end the song too

Really? Simple, dull arpeggios. It's the most basic and boring piano accompaniment.

I'm happy for you, Denise

Being in love can blind u from seeing reality

That’s good Denise but don’t be afraid of pain either, it’s what makes us human :)

@@TulipaBigDipa OH... his stroke when I was 30 (I am 63 now) kills me every single waking moment of every single day... he is still alive... but the pain..... Oh, I KNOW that very well.

@@almohvn33 oh …God bless you dear.

Juggernaut? I thought she'd lost some weight .

Maybe not the best choice of word. Juggernaut: a massive inexorable force, campaign, movement, or object that crushes whatever is in its path... a literal or metaphorical force regarded as merciless, destructive, and unstoppable.

@@richardwebb2348 Sounds like the perfect word for her dominance over the charts back then.

Very touching

@DougVale I knew. Listen to Chasing Pavement since it came out.

Piano..==Miles Robertson.. Musical Director/

so true! people come and go, voices stand their grounds.

ukposts.infoa11n1nDoHco?feature=share

It's almost 177 million views already bro❤️❤️

True that

When this song went to #1 in Australia, the official video hadn’t been released yet, so Channel V (Australia’s main music channel) made this the de facto video and aired it on high rotation

This is more than a music video - it’s a moment in time that is way more memorable 😍

180 million now on 29/4/21

im so sorry. you made me cry. i hope you are ok :)

@@williamjohansen515 I'm ok now. Still miss the hell out of him tho. Its been 12 years now. I've learned to deal with it..the pain never goes away I just handle it bertter. Hard to play certain songs without him.. We played a lot he was the lyricist and We are both guitarist with perfect harmony. Hard to find what we had...i miss him dearly. Thanks William for stopping in. Have a beautiful day🎵🎸🌹

@@nancyboyd6273 you too❤️

You deserve all the happiness possible...may you claim it

Sorry to hear that :(

Very accurate and astute. I’m guessing all artists are similar to be writing these songs without emotion and keep it all in check and put on a concert. That takes a while to learn

@@TheAtticradio thank you. I totally agree 🤌🏾

I'd imagine it's harder for artist who put their heart and soul on display like that. To me in looked like she was feeling what she sang, reliving emotions and putting them into her performance.

@@hosekichan that's a great way to look at it. I can totally view it that way too now. Isn't it so interesting to see how differently we all perceive the same things??

imo in this case it seemed her deeply felt the lyrics that she was going through a heart break i can tell she was about to cry here. and of course since 19 era, she told so many times she always nervous even it was hard for her to doing a huge concert with stadium crowd.

Hello, I’m Morgan and nice to meet you

At the end of the song, look at her face and they way she 'Body speaks', she lived the song right at that moment for me....Wooooow!

Sarah Penney a @7

No Penney

@@michaelbriggs8141 🤨

@Ryan Stewart she performed on jools holland prior to this, and was performed better imo

@Chris Gandy honestly, I've never been in that case before but when she sang, I felt like i did

You ain't kiddin'.

Fuckin right

Yep 😂

hope you found the one?!!

I can relate

I know this was a long time ago, but I feel your pain. I was rejected by my first love, high school, many times. I still dream about him.

@@Fletcher938 sadly not as of yet 😆 gotten a lot more selective though, just perhaps too selective. Happy with just me and my pup at the moment so all is well 🙂🐶

Yeah I felt that to. But hey, if you’re falling for a guy this hard after one date you should get help.

Tell me about it

Timeless, master piece. And she has amazing voice and delivery.

I cry every listening

She always puts everything into her songs . Adele you’re fabulous

Yup 😔.

Her album comes out in fall yay

Here !

🙋‍♀️

Here

here!

Here in Japan!

That was cool omg

♾️

You are kind 😇

Hope you liked her new album

jkjkj

O that so good music

Up4Jess she just lets the feelings goes, once the thank you has been said, all the mood gone...

She said thank you at the end

When the Brit award aired,they followed her to a elevator, that had her man in it, she hugged him crying, prob due 2 nerves. Still remember that bit

She has very bad stage fright.

Merccy me

Norm Ralkie that was at her radio city music hall concert

The crying in the elevator was after her performance at the Radio City Music Hall in New York City before the release of her '25' album. Not after this performance on the Brit Awards. If you haven't seen the Radio City Music Hall performances they are definitely worth a view! Got to see her in Texas on her '25' tour and it is still the best concert I have ever seen. Hats off to anyone who can make an arena sit and watch captivated while you stand still on a stage and just sway back and forth. #legend

Doesn't hurt so good

If you listen to her voice you end up forgeting about the person that brought you here, now that is impressive.

never forget cause it just made me win the fucking freak show from an so called SMART narsissist doctor i knew more about then she her self sadly..just paie atention sweety oops ..

@ekim andersom Do you know when the person leaves you and you're kind of at a loss as to what to do next because you were used to having that person with you? Such a thought is part of the process of overcoming I think

true

Hello Karina, I'm actually new her so I really need someone to talk with or probably have more conversation together

Completely agree.

Hello How are you doing

She has made me cry. All her feelings ,I feel them as she sings

When you have a great voice like hers, instruments are just there for spice.

I don't think looks are 'more important'

@@oliverdavis2422 they didn't meant that literally. The compliment was upon how Adele's whole vibe looks 'beautiful' because she is entirely immersed in her song, and it shows on her face....especially when she sings the last verse where even her voice begins to quiver, leaking the feels inside her heart out to the world. Adele is an amazing singer, and an amazing performer...but in this performance, there was something extra which no other performance of this or any other song of hers has had, perhaps the breakup was fresh in her mind back then, perhaps the pressures of making it big were more at this point in her career, and it all boiled down and manifested into this amazing performance. It cannot be pointed to her voice or her looks alone...it is a combination of it all, her expressions, her body language while singing, her stage presence, her lyrics and ALSO the time she sang this, 2011....just before 21 as an album became so viral that it became 21st century's best selling record.

@@rishabhrox1 A beautiful explanation. Adele was born from the heart she showed and from the innocence seen in her eyes. This performance was from her soul and we saw it raw.

Adele looks better now she is in shape

The song is self-explanatory - comments by James were not needed!

James is annoying

@@joncerda351 this was a time where he was actually bearable

@@jamesyoung5084 Was there such a time?

+Xenia Jessica You've never heard me sing. After about a minute there will be streams of tears rolling down your face...as you try to stuff your fingers in your ears and beg me to stop.

Haha

+Xenia Jessica What if Elton John poked you in the eye with his finger?

+Rob Fraser no if lady Gaga poked her face ... pun intended yes ...

+jmeove your right when i see justin beiber i cry with laughter... how funny

That sounds like depression to me

It's called "empathy". We all had those feelings in our lives. And performances like Adele's bring back the memories or at least the emotions. Usually that is perfectly healthy, helps you process your experiences.
