Adele album 25 LEAKED – first reviews call it 'UNREMARKABLE' and 'ORDINARY'
Shock as Adele's album leaked three days early
ADELE's new album was leaked three days ahead of its November 20 release. One early review said 25 will "make you cry in public" but another calls it "unremarkable and slightly ordinary."

Adele's new album is the most anticipated release of the year. No wonder an internet frenzy started when pictures appeared of the CD on sale in the US three days early.
The first public reviews were glowing, but early comments from critics have been less complimentary.

"The raw emotional edge that was part of 21’s appeal is noticeable by its absence," writes Alex Petridis in The Guardian.
"Often, though, it slinks unremarkably into the middle of the road. They’re not bad songs as such, but they feel slightly ordinary, distinguished only by her voice."

One American commentator praised the power of Adele's voice and the emotional new material but also agreed that it was al reemarkably similar to the previous album, 21.
"25" is as predictable as you might think," writes Troy L Smith.
"Adele may not break any new ground on 25. But she still knows how to move people."

The majority of reviews will be released tomorrow when 25 finally hits the shelves, but public reviews were posted after the album's alleged leak.
Earlier this week in America, a Twitter user posted an image of his or herself holding the alleged new CD, claiming that it had been bought at the well-known US superstore.
"Just copped that new Adele album at Target. retweet if you want me to leak it," wrote the twitter user calling themselves Florence Welch @HausofFrancis.
The twitter user, who is evidently not the actual lead singer of Florence + The Machine, also boasted that they had already listened to it.
"Adele honestly outdid herself with 25" they wrote.
At the same time, a record shop in London, Juno Records, posted online previews of all 11 songs from the hugely anticipated album.
“Stock up on copious wine because you’re going to need it,” wrote one lucky listener.
“Hello isn’t the only song on 25 that will have you crying in public.” 
Adele's record company, XL Records, was, unsurprisingly, very swift to act and Juno Records took down the links to all the songs within twenty minutes of posting them live.
Meanwhile HausofFrancis in America has clearly been revelling in the sudden notoriety, with updates on messages from XL Records and some comments in particularly poor taste.
Happily the internet had much more more fun with a series of spoof versions of Adele's Hello video, including David Attenborough, monkeys and cute toddlers. 



Haus of Francis also posted an image of a message from XL Records threatening legal action.
Adele's record company subsequently issued a statement denying that the physical CD had been available to buy anywhere in advance of its release at the end of this week.
“The Target sales are not true,” a representative declared.
Adele's album receives its official release on November 20, coinciding with an appearance on UK television with Graham Norton this friday.

Adele will talk about her new album and perform some new tracks and old favourites live.
The singer has also revealed details about the new music in a heartbreaking and candid open letter to fans.
In the public message the singer speaks about her hopes and fears, "teetering on the edge of being an old adolescent and a fully-fledged adult."
The outspoken star also talks about, "Wishing I hadn't ruined so many good things because I was scared or bored."
"25 is about getting to know who I've become without realising," she wrote. "And I'm sorry it took so long, but you know, life happened.
"My last record was a break-up record and if I had to label this one I would call it a make-up record."
Adele's last album, titled 21, came out in January 2011 and went on to sell 4.6 million copies in the UK and 11 million in the US, as well as picking up six Grammy Awards and two Brit Awards.
