It was a very moving moment when Adele stepped into the opening bar of Hyde Park’s “Hello” on Friday night.
At the first public gig in Britain in more than five years, the musician visibly wept when a strong crowd of 65,000 sang her hits all at once. “I’m very happy to be here,” she enthusiastically said in the middle of the song. “I’m back home.”
Despite being one of the biggest musicians on the planet (stars like Tom Cruise were looking from the VIP area), Adele has maintained a family relationship with the audience from the beginning. rice field. She embodied every corner of Hollywood’s charm, dressed in black and gold, but her grounded Tottenham roots were shining. “The number of times I was there and turned away and got drunk,” she said, pointing at the crowd below, with cheers and laughter. She also admitted, in her typical funny, candid style, that she was “f ****** sh ****** herself” to her nervousness.
Five years after she had to cancel Wembley’s show due to vocal cord damage if she was tense, she offered a stunning career span set, so there were no signs of them. It included a gorgeous rendition of “Make You Feel My Love” and a showstop performance of her acclaimed bond song “Skyfall”. “Rumor Has It” was as exciting as “Set FireToTheRain”, which included lots of pyrotechnics and fire blasts. The popular singing voice of “Someone Like You” shed Adele in tears. “You sounded nice and bloody,” she tells them.
Adele spent a lot of time connecting with his fans on Friday. Especially during long stints asking fans where they came from, how long they’ve been here, and when they’re celebrating.She talked about everything from the “amazing” Billie Eilish and at a glance people who do not know thing Suffering from sciatica and getting older. She saw at one point she offered to buy and drink a fan she was 18 years old. Another moment I saw a T-shirt she throws comically from Guncannon towards the crowd.
From time to time, musicians seemed to work hard with their fans. Perhaps many were disappointed after the last-minute cancellation to their Las Vegas settlements scheduled earlier this year. She told her fans last night that those gigs would be reorganized “very, very soon”.
But Las Vegas seemed like a distant memory to fans on the ground. All the fans were too busy getting lost at that moment. They dance with pure joy to buoyant numbers like “Rolling in the Deep” and hear soaring ballads like “When we were young” and “Easy on Me”. Shouted my heart. Her Adele song still strikes a deep and powerful chord with the listener who associates her broken heart with her.
“London, I love you so much,” Adele said in tears towards the end. “I’m very excited to be here.” Someone as excited as her fans that Adele returned home when she empowered her through the closer “Love is a Game” in a fireworks blast. Was no one.
