The woman can sing.
It's been a while since we had a popular song with female vocals that didn't sound like some whispery, tentative, 82 pound emo flake recorded it.
She sounds like she can slam a shot, take a punch, screw all night, and look pretty good the next morning. hehehehe (ok I'm being silly, but I do like this song)
I agree, and I love her voice. I hope she stays around for awhile doing this kind of music. |

Now that would be some quote for Adele's publicity material! :o) That is one hell of a voice that she's got. No wonder she's become so popular, or so I hear - I never listen to FM stations because they're uniformly sh1te, so I've not had chance to get fed up with this song. 8 from the aurally stunned Nottingham jury. |

She has a great voice and sings with gusto. Nevertheless, I am sick of hearing this yet again. |

Great montage. It set the tone for a rough and tumble series. Not looking forward to winter, but I do look forward to the return of HNIC and Don Cherry's suits. |

Wow! With the kids gone, I had to wait until 6:08 p.m. EDT to hear this one today. Normally I would have heard it three times by 10 a.m.

Amazing number and for those people that are pissed with it let me hand on a wee bit of IT knowledge... on your sound system all manufactures provide an ''OFF'' button. Simplicity itself. Thanks for playing it Bill.

I like her voice but I can't figure out whether I like this song. I don't much like the chorus.

All pop songs should sound like this. I can't remember the last pop song that was close to this good.
What that Bob guy said. |

Why would you listen to normal radio? I love that the gems that are played there (few though they may be) aren't shunted by Bill just because of it. I would never hear them otherwise. |

Well said. I can't either, they are few and far between. |

No WE don't, YOU can use the mute button, which is a lot less effort and considerably more polite than making this moronic comment. Negative juice, bad mojo, impure thoughts, get thee to a nunnery ——>>> post haste, and————>>>>>

Criticizing RP for playing music that's overplayed on the pop charts is like criticizing them for not playing popular music. RP clearly follows their own format - not what the pop charts indicate. So if you only listen to RP, I'd say this song fits in well. Problem is that if RP isn't your only source of music, this song is insidious. Some of us can't avoid occasional exposure to mainstream radio (I have 3 kids). Even they will jump stations when this comes on only to find it playing on the other pop station. This will go down as the most overplayed songs of the decade...maybe the millenium. Shame because it wasn't too bad 20,000 plays ago.

Ridiculously overplayed everywhere! RP should remove from playlist for next 2 years.

Why are you listening to main stream radio???? Even so, after the 1000th time this song still rocks!  |
