This stopped me in my tracks. And made my heart pound.
The first single, "Rolling in the Deep," off Adele's new album, to be released in January.
The seductively hazy, moody, leaves-you-wanting-more docu-style video was put together from studio footage from the recording sessions in Malibu, and the authentic style is perfectly suited to the soulful song, which she describes as "a dark, bluesy, gospel disco tune." I almost don't want there to be an official music video, I like this one!
For her second album, she paired up with big-time producers like Rick Rubin and Paul Epworth (Florence and the Machine, Cee-Lo, Phoenix), but don't let that fool you into thinking that maybe her personal style gets eclipsed by the visions of producers. If this single is any indication, it is actually quite the opposite-- Rubin and Epworth brilliantly capture the power of her voice and pair it with instrumentals just as dynamic and bold as her vocals.

This is not the Adele you know from her previous radio hits. Check it out.
