Adele

Two things I hate: the idea of "blue-eyed soul" and people younger than me who are actually doing something with their life. Ugh. Well, the 19-year old singer Adele combines both of those things, and somehow I don't hate her. Her voice is too compelling to ignore; she sounds like someone 10 or 20 years her senior. And if she's not responsible for her songwriting and production, she should get props for choosing to work with whoever is. The chorus to "Chasing Pavement" alone kills me.
