The Ellen episode is just on now in Australia. That song, 'When We Were Young" just kills me. And she nailed it.

Her laugh is one of those, where you smile just hearing it - it's full of life, raw and wonderful.
I love that song!

She has another that's catchy to me, Send a Message to Your Lover or something like that.

Adele. Nice voice but does anyone else feel really annoyed when a 26 yo dolefully sighs about "when we were young"??


i'm exactly that age and when i sing that song i think of my ex best friend and of the times when we were little and how we lived carelessly throughout our childhood, and how i want to go back to those times, so to me it feels just right in that context.

i think she explained it in one of her interviews that the song is about all of her friends settling and marrying and having kids, so now when she looks back to her younger years she realizes how much easier everything was back then.

Yes, I understand completely. I feel the same way about the lyrics in "Hello" when she's going on about "after all these years" and how "time's supposed to heal ya". Both of those songs sound like they should be sung by a 40-year-old not someone in her 20s.
 
I think the mid-20s are a very transitional time in life and when you really start to feel like an adult when all you've ever known is being a kid so I understand the emotion there. I generally think her songs overdo it with the whining and/or nostalgia though and they always revolve around the same theme so that they're just not that convincing or powerful.
