She may come wreathed in the glamour of Hollywood, but her patter is homegrown – and her vocal artistry has few peers她可能会沉浸在好莱坞的魅力中，但她的节奏是本土的——她的声乐艺术很少有匹敌者。
Adele’s first line, “Hello, it’s me, I was wondering if after all these years you’d like to meet,” carries extra weight tonight. It’s five years to the day since the singer cancelled two Wembley Stadium shows due to damaged vocal cords and retreated from the public eye. This is her first full public concert anywhere in the world since then, so she takes nothing for granted. When 65,000 people sing the chorus to Someone Like You, there is a distinct possibility that she will melt down to a puddle of tears. “You sounded bloody lovely,” she says.
今晚，阿黛尔的第一句话-“你好，是我，我想知道这些年来你是否愿意再见到我”承载了太多。 自从这位歌手因声带受损而取消了两场温布利球场的演出并退出公众视线以来，已经过去了五年。 这是她自那时以来在世界任何地方的第一次完整的公开音乐会，所以她认为没有什么是理所当然的。 当 65,000 合唱“someone like you”时，她很可能会融化成一滩泪水。 “你听起来非常可爱，”她说。
Adele remains a unique proposition: a torch singer who specialises in ballads about shredded hearts (“I don’t have many uptempo bangers”) yet chats away between them like a beloved family friend who always brings wine. You might imagine that five more years in Los Angeles and a swerve towards old Hollywood glamour had changed her to some extent. At the start of the show everything looks gold, her hair and jewellery chiming with the stage décor and the evening sunlight. But as soon as she starts talking it’s as if she never left Tottenham. She natters about Billie Eilish, Stranger Things, sciatica and forgetting lyrics, offers to buy one 18-year-old fan a birthday drink and swears with jolly gusto. “My son’s here tonight,” she says, “so cover your ears, baby.”
阿黛尔仍然是一个独特的话题：一个擅长唱关于心碎的民谣的火炬歌手（“我没有很多快节奏的歌”），但他们之间却像一个心爱的家庭朋友一样聊天，总是带着酒。 你可能会想象，在洛杉矶再呆五年，转向旧好莱坞的魅力，在某种程度上改变了她。 在演出开始时，一切看起来都是金色的，她的头发和珠宝与舞台装饰和傍晚的阳光相映成趣。 但一旦她开始说话，就好像她从未离开过托特纳姆。 她喋喋不休地谈论 Billie Eilish、Stranger Things、坐骨神经痛和忘记歌词，提议给一位 18 岁的粉丝买一杯生日饮料，并兴高采烈地发誓。 “我儿子今晚在这里，”她说，“所以捂住耳朵，宝贝。”
Compared to Adele’s last tour, this production has more class than flash. There are simple but effective visual motifs on the high-definition screens and, towards the end, the classic troika of confetti, flames and fireworks, but most of the time the primary visual spectacle is Adele’s face. Her records give no hint as to how much fun she has on stage. There are moments when she rolls her eyes or sticks out her tongue like a tipsy fan rather than a performer, finding pockets of hilarity in songs that would seem to offer none. She talks about playing “a good old set” and calls Send My Love (To Your New Lover) “a little jig”.
与阿黛尔上一次巡演相比，这部作品的档次要高很多。 高清屏幕上有简单而有效的视觉图案，最后是经典的五彩纸屑、火焰和烟花三驾马车，但大多数时候主要的视觉奇观是阿黛尔的脸。 尽管她在舞台上并没有看上去那么享受，但有时，她更像醉酒的粉丝而不是表演者一样翻白眼或伸出舌头或者滑稽地边唱边翻口袋好像要给观众找点什么东西似的。 她说她想表现出“一种怀旧的味道”，并称Send My Love (To Your New Lover)这首歌就像是“一个小夹子”。
All this informality and self-deprecation means that her vocal artistry sometimes hits like an ambush: the barnstorming roar of Rolling in the Deep, the Bond melodrama of Skyfall, the perfectly controlled tenderness of Make You Feel My Love. One minute she is tucking her microphone into her cleavage and firing T-shirts into the audience; the next she is waist-deep in her divorce on Easy on Me. Fans may be used to this unusual dichotomy by now – imagine if Aretha Franklin had been a regular on EastEnders – but it takes an exceptional combination of charm and talent to pull it off.
她的这种不羁和自嘲似乎是在诉说自己的声音艺术遭到了一场伏击的打击：如谷仓咆哮般的Rolling in the Deep，如邦德情节电影般的Skyfall，如受到完美控制的温柔似的Make You Feel My Love。 前一秒她把麦克风塞进她的cleavage（这个不敢直译怕审核通不过）并向观众扔T 恤； 后一秒，她又唱着《Easy on Me》来深情地诉说着他的离婚往事。 粉丝们现在可能已经习惯了她这种不同寻常的“精分”—-想象一下即使艾瑞莎·富兰克林曾经是 EastEnders 的常客——但他也需要非凡魅力和才华都结合才能实现。
For two hours a spirit of giddy celebration sweeps across Hyde Park. Somewhere in the crowd, one woman alternates between shuddering with sobs and wielding a wine bottle as if it were a microphone. That right there is the Adele experience.在两个小时内，一种令人眩晕的庆祝精神席卷了海德公园。 人群中的某个地方，一个女人时而抽泣，时而颤抖，时而挥舞着酒瓶，仿佛它是一个麦克风。 那正是阿黛尔。
