But that has got absolutely nothing to do with the quality, or otherwise, of the song. Can't you just enjoy it or not, without wondering how many people will post it on Facebook in the future? Very odd criteria for judging a song. |

On a two play basis, I reckon she sounds fantastic vocally and I love the song. |

But the song is exactly what you would expect it to be, feels so very fabricated If I would to ignore all that and the rest above, yes it's perfectly alright but nothing exceptional |

I'm with Pera on this. It is, of course, a NICE song. But I had it on walking home from work tonight. I pressed "NEXT" and "Take a Bow" came on. Genune SWOON! I am very pleased she is back. We need her. She's a leveler. And she looks GORGEOUS in that video ... regardless of how obvious the art direction is. |

I have just watched the video for Donna Lewis's big hit. So simple. But so effective. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqdWTeXWvOg Genuinely lovely. |

I mean the video. It just has that cheapo 90s MOR video vibe to it. |

Oh well, I simply don't agree. I think it's utterly beautiful. |

I am, genuinely, delighted others love this. As I said above, we need a leveller. She is it. But when I played this on YouTube ... I got song after song I was delighted to hear. But, GO ADELE! Welcome back.

Hahaha! Nice one. Now let's hope she breaks that Britney album record. Is it remotely possible in 2015 though, to sell that many in a week? |

Well Taylor just did over 1.2 million late last year, Britney's record is just over 1.3 million. Adele is coming back after 5 years and following up an album that has sold 4 million more than any Taylor album in the US. |

i didn't think much of this at first but after a few listens it sounds like the massive comeback song everyone expected from her to deliver. i see the comparisons to someone like you, only this is way superior and far more exciting than the aforementioned overrated borefest. both her vocal delivery and her visual presence on the video suggest she has embraced her labelling as this powerhouse, modern day diva and i'm all for that! i sort of like the video just for that reason, she looks confident, gorgeous and, well, iconic. it totally sells her as today's cool version of celine dion. as for that first week sales billboard record, ain't it a bit obvious she has it in her bag? her mass appeal is far broader than taylor swift would ever dream of. and she's releasing the album in thanksgiving week, right? it's quite likely she may even easily reach the 2 million mark. |
