Someone Like... Adele


Adele is one artist to quickly hit the spot light. “Someone Like You” is the last song on her album that really became popular and touched the lives of many. After feeling miserable and lonely, Adele wrote this song, which contradicted her song “Rolling in The Deep.” However, speaking from the heart and personal experience, “Someone Like You” is that song that almost everyone can relate to. After an emotional break-up, this song tells the story of her imaging years down the road looking for him and he’s happily married with a beautiful wife and kids. And she’s still on her own. Her true passion and emotion reaches out to the many lovers who can relate and have had their heart broken. This song has made her who she is today and she is such an inspiration. From her witty stage presence to her gorgeous look, her voice is one to send chills down your spine.





There is even a dance remix of “Someone Like You.”





From covers to remixes, Adele is flooding YouTube. So many of her songs have been remade by celebrities along with Adele’s biggest fans. Here is David Cook’s raspy rock and roll version of “Rolling in The Deep.”


From Lindsay Lohan to Gnarls Barkley, here are two remixes that make you want to turn up the volume.



Another cover that stands out is this talented individual from YouTube.


One group that is making headlines is the PS22 Chorus. From uploading a video to YouTube to landing on the Official Adele Website, this group is truly an inspiration. It’s so great to see grade schools inspiring kids through extremely talented artists.


Adele is truly an inspiring artist and is proof that music is one of the best ways to get through all those hard times. She expresses every emotion through her music and has even brought a tear to her eye singing in the moment live on stage. It’s artists like her that really make you feel like you have a purpose in life and to never hide your emotions. I’m so glad a friend introduced her to me because she has really had an impact on my life along with sharing some of the same life experiences.

Were You 'Born This Way?'




Lady Gaga has come to great success with her popular single ‘Born This Way.’ Toping the charts and remaining number one for weeks, this song has been an eye opener and a crowd pleaser. From covers to remixes, this song has flooded YouTube with the talent of others along with being able to express yourself. She has touched the lives of so many sending the message that it doesn’t matter what or who you are, that you were born this way! Lady Gaga is so talented and in my opinion one artist that is in it because she was truly born with this gift and not just in it for the money. Lady Gaga is one artist that is strictly fan based and is always reaching out to make sure her “monsters” are satisfied and have something to relate to. One fan that grabbed Gaga’s attention was the talented Maria Aragon. Releasing a cover of ‘Born This Way’ on YouTube landed her in Toronto, Canada to perform live with Gaga herself.



Lady Gaga has also cracked the whip on the newly released ‘The Country Road Version of Born The Way.’ You would never think her style could match the country twang and harmonica, but it is actually, in my opinion, an entertaining and unique creation.



‘Born This Way’ has also been a leading contributor and supporter for the NOH8 campaign. NOH8 is a photographic silent protest for equal rights supporting the LGBT community. This song couldn’t have fit the campaign any better.



Another YouTube favorite of mine is Sam Tsui’s cover of ‘Born The Way.’ He is one of many covers out there, but one that stands out in my mind for his unique and creative style. Each of his covers are inspirational and you can tell he puts a lot of time and energy into his work. He is known for his covers, but his originals are also a piece of art. I have been a true follower of Sam and really appreciate his work. I also have respect for everyone who has supported Lady Gaga and ‘Born This Way,’ not only for it’s up beat club feeling, but also it’s true meaning.
