1
Well, I reckon that this is a perfect time to do 73 questions with Adele.
2
I have to pinch myself that this is actually happening right now.
3
How are you?
4
I'm doing so much better now that I'm with you.
5
Me too, I'm so excited.
6
I know, I think we've been trying to do this for a long time.
7
Six, seven years.
8
Here we go.
9
Six, seven years, let's get into it.
10
Okay.
11
How is Adele doing these days?
12
I'm great.
13
I'm really great.
14
I'm excited.
15
I'm about to put my new album out.
16
And I'd assume that that's the number one thing you're most excited about in life, right?
17
It is, and that's why you're here.
18
That is the reason I'm here, and it's so good to see you in hot and sunny Los Angeles.
19
It is.
20
Typical Brit wearing a track suit in this, like, 90-degree weather.
21
It's okay.
22
You look great.
23
Thank you.
24
And how has Los Angeles and the States been treating you these days?
25
Great.
26
I've loved being here.
27
I'm very calm.
28
The past year has been challenging.
29
It has.
30
Has there been one thing you've learned during this time?
31
Just how much of a homebody I am, and I probably would never leave my house if I didn't need to.
32
And I ask this question on behalf of fans everywhere.
33
When are we going to see you next live or in concert on tour?
34
As soon as possible.
35
I'm ready to go, really.
36
It's just up to COVID, so just keep on wearing your mask and don't be spreading that delta, and who knows?
37
Let me help you with that.
38
Oh, thank you.
39
Okay, I think we should dive into your childhood.
40
Oh, I'd love that.
41
Let's do it.
42
How did you realize that you had a great voice?
43
I guess because I got signed.
44
My favorites are, like, brilliant, so I don't really rate myself with a singer.
45
Is your mom musical?
46
She's, like, yeah, she's a fan of music.
47
So yeah.
48
And you did a Camden crawl and you toured small London pubs.
49
I did.
50
What was your favourite venue to play when you first started gigging?
51
Probably Madame Jojo's.
52
I played there a few times, plus all my friends used to play there as well.
53
Do you think you still remember the Hot Spurs chant?
54
Oh yes.
55
Glory, glory Tottenham Hotspur.
56
Glory, glory Tottenham Hotspur.
57
Glory, glory, Tottenham Hotspur And the Spurs go marching on The crowd goes wild!
58
Oggie, oggie, oggie!
59
Were you nervous to put your music up on MySpace way back then?
60
I actually didn't do that.
61
That was my friend Lyndon.
62
So, no, I wasn't.
63
Oh, you weren't.
64
Yeah.
65
And do you remember who any of your top eight friends were?
66
I mean, that's like 12, 13 years ago.
67
Come on.
68
Definitely Jack Pignatte.
69
Okay.
70
Yeah.
71
Definitely Jamie T, Kid Harpoon.
72
Let me grab that for you.
73
Thank you.
74
Definitely Laura Marling.
75
Definitely Lily Allen, because she was the queen of MySpace at the time.
76
Probably a bit of Scroobius Pip.
77
Maybe The Maccabees.
78
How many is that?
79
Like six?
80
I'm not entirely sure.
81
Have you ever considered a different stage name all this time?
82
No, because my surname is so boring.
83
It's Adkins.
84
Okay.
85
This is a beautiful, beautiful home.
86
It's so cozy.
87
Oh, I'm glad you like it.
88
Yeah, I tried to make it for a little English country, so I can't.
89
Yeah, I feel like I'm there.
90
And what's been the most surprising aspect of living as a Brit in America?
91
That my sarcastic humor doesn't actually travel.
92
What's an unexpected similarity between London and Los Angeles?
93
Tea and coffee culture.
94
What do Americans do that's different than Brits?
95
You have your own funky language for things.
96
Like, this is actually coriander, not cilantro.
97
And your eggplants are actually...
98
Oak jeans, your movie theaters we call cinemas, your candy we call sweets.
99
Kind of the list is kind of endless really.
100
There's a lot to keep track of.
101
There is.
102
So, okay, so am I looking at a typical grocery run from Adele?
103
Yes and no.
104
This looks super duper healthy because I'm making a vegetable soup tonight.
105
But normally, you know, there's some cereal, some sugar cereal for my son, and stringy cheese he loves, and milkshakes and things like that.
106
But kind of, yeah, you know, I watch what I put into my body these days.
107
What do you miss more, Tesco or Sandsbury's?
108
Well, I say Tesco simply because that was the only supermarket that was in my neighborhood when I was growing up.
109
But actually, it's Marks and Spencers.
110
All right, we're going to go back in time.
111
You're making your first album.
112
Okay.
113
19.
114
What surprised you about professionally recording music back then?
115
I think how much I really enjoyed being in the studio environment, actually.
116
And who in the crowd made you most nervous during your first TV appearance?
117
Was it your mom or Sir Paul McCartney?
118
Without a doubt, it was Sir Paul McCartney.
119
And at the end of the show that I did my first ever singing performance on, he sang, Hey Jude.
120
So it was incredible.
121
What a moment.
122
And then there was SNL.
123
There was.
124
What was the scariest thing about performing live on SNL?
125
Live TV in America in general.
126
But also I knew that a few extra people were tuning in because of Sarah Palin.
127
So I definitely shat myself.
128
Yep, that happened.
129
And you became a star.
130
And how did you handle being recognized in public?
131
I don't love it, but ever since 21 sort of came out really, my hair gets bigger, my makeup gets thicker, and my dresses get bigger, so that I practically look a bald eagle or something like that in day-to-day life.
132
Do you mind if I take a gander at your bookshop?
133
Oh my goodness, please do.
134
There's some good ones up there.
135
Okay.
136
What's the best movie that you've watched recently?
137
Probably Minari.
138
And do you think it's true that you can learn a lot about a person based on the books that they keep?
139
Well, I would say that, but I don't know that many people that have real books in their house anymore.
140
They seem to have Kindles, or they just don't read at all, or on their phone, or something like that.
141
I'd say back in the day, yeah.
142
All right.
143
Well, now we're 21 years old.
144
You're recording the second album, 21.
145
Yes.
146
What did your diaries throughout the songwriting process look like then?
147
Drunk, chaotic, distressed, very, very sad.
148
Yeah, along those lines.
149
And what did you do with them after the album was completed?
150
They are all hidden in a handbag somewhere in my wardrobe room in London.
151
And I actually have no idea which one.
152
So they could be missing, for all I know.
153
That's good bonus material.
154
It is.
155
Which recording would you say challenged you the most?
156
Probably Don't You Remember.
157
It was sort of my attempt at a country song.
158
It starts super duper tender and soft, which I'm not brilliant at.
159
By the end, I'm wailing, which is way more my comfort zone.
160
But I'd say Don't You Remember.
161
Yeah.
162
And then there's your throat surgery.
163
I heard John Mayer offer some guidance after this procedure.
164
What did he share with you?
165
He just, you know, he was just sort of very encouraging to stay silent and be patient.
166
And actually, my injury was a very common singer's injury, so not to worry too much about it.
167
So, yeah, he was great.
168
He's such a sweetheart.
169
I like him so much.
170
How would you describe the difference in your voice pre and post procedure?
171
It was definitely heading towards a Tom Waits sound that I had before my surgery, getting very, very husky.
172
And afterwards, it was a brand-new voice.
173
It was so clean and pure, yeah.
174
Yeah.
175
And would you ever release the alternate version of 21?
176
No, because if I wanted to do that, I would have done it already.
177
Fair point.
178
Okay.
179
So, fashion questions.
180
Okay.
181
Heels or slides?
182
Hate slides.
183
It's got to be heels.
184
Barefoot or heels on stage?
185
Barefoot so I don't fall over.
186
And what's your most iconic style moment?
187
Well, I would say probably my Armani moment in 2012 at the Grammys.
188
And I was pregnant, so I just love that dress.
189
Who's your fashion icon?
190
Cate Blanchett.
191
Who always gets it right on the red carpet?
192
Cate Blanchett.
193
Okay.
194
And what do you never leave the house without wearing?
195
Heat earrings.
196
Who makes your favourite eyeliner?
197
Pat McGrath.
198
And what fashion advice can you offer me right now?
199
Um, just keep on doing what you're doing.
200
Comfort over style.
201
Thank you.
202
I really...
203
That's what I do too.
204
I appreciate that.
205
And when you were making your third album, 25, you said that making this album was the hardest thing that you've ever done.
206
done.
207
It was.
208
But what was the easiest song on the album to write?
209
Definitely Remedy.
210
I think it's probably because it's about my son.
211
And what was the most valuable thing that you learned from producer Max Martin?
212
All about the hooks.
213
For anyone looking to write a killer pop song, what's the most important piece of advice to consider?
214
It's all about the hooks.
215
About the hooks, okay.
216
And what was the biggest difference between working on 19, 21, and 25?
217
Well, 19 I I hadn't long been signed, so I only had like four songs.
218
I had to actually really write an album, it felt like.
219
21, I couldn't stop writing it.
220
It was just pouring out of me.
221
I was such a hot mess.
222
And then 25, I just didn't have time to write, really.
223
So I just had a newborn baby, so not much.
224
Let's go outside.
225
Okay, let's do it.
226
It's lovely out here.
227
Which venue was most intimidating or terrifying to perform in?
228
After you, I would say the ANZ Stadium in Sydney.
229
It was something silly, like 100,000 people.
230
This is beautiful.
231
This is very English out here.
232
It feels like it, yeah.
233
It's also very Grey Gardens.
234
Yeah.
235
Yes.
236
What was your favorite city to play in?
237
Always London.
238
Yeah.
239
Have you found any cures for stage fright?
240
Sadly not.
241
No?
242
No, none whatsoever.
243
Ah, what's the strangest thing you've seen someone do at one of your shows?
244
A middle-aged woman drink too much, pass out, then piss herself while she got carried out.
245
Vegas, obviously.
246
Vegas, obviously.
247
Obviously.
248
Obviously.
249
Do you cry while singing any of your songs?
250
I do to quite a few of my new ones, yeah.
251
Wow.
252
What piece of advice would you give to your 19-year-old self?
253
That your love life's going to get a lot worse.
254
Ooh.
255
Truth.
256
Truth, yeah.
257
How about any advice for anyone getting started in music?
258
Well, the best advice I ever got was to keep your heart safe and your music dangerous.
259
And I live by that.
260
So that would be my piece of advice too.
261
That's good.
262
How has becoming a mom changed your songwriting?
263
I just don't really have much time to do it anymore.
264
And what's the best advice your own mom gave you about parenting?
265
To chill out and stop being so regimented with a routine.
266
What's your happiest memory with your mom?
267
Probably when she moved back in with me when I was 21.
268
I was really falling apart, and she lovingly put me back together.
269
That's so sweet.
270
And I would assume that she's your roommate on the road when you're on tour?
271
No, because she's still my mother, so she still thinks that she can tell me what to do.
272
So no, she just comes to the shows.
273
It's always gonna be like that.
274
And why was it important for you to support victims of the Grenfell Tower fire?
275
Just felt like I had to.
276
It was right around the corner from where my house in London is.
277
And it was, you know, it overtook the UK.
278
We couldn't believe that there was a building like that in the middle of central London that had burnt down.
279
And I just wanted to be a safe and consistent person for them, which I hope I was.
280
What word would your friends use to describe you?
281
Definitely loyal.
282
And I heard you do a killer Al Pacino impression.
283
Can you give me some of that?
284
Yes, but I think it's good.
285
It's hoo-ha.
286
From his role as reason-centered, maybe a taint.
287
Yeah.
288
OK, Adele, I thought we could have some more fun besides Al Pacino impressions.
289
Yes, always.
290
I have a phone here with an app on it where you can sing a little stuff into it, and then you could change your voice into whatever you want.
291
Fun.
292
OK, let's give it a go.
293
Hello from the other side.
294
Let's have a look.
295
Okay, there's a lot of options.
296
Let's start with helium.
297
Helium?
298
Alvin the chipmunk.
299
I'm from the other side.
300
Try tunnel.
301
Reverb.
302
Hello from the other side.
303
That sounds like I'm singing in a shower.
304
I'm up for that one.
305
I'm up for that one.
306
That sounds like a shower.
307
Yeah, that's definitely me on the new album.
308
Alright, now let's hear you drunk.
309
Please tell me the next album is like that.
310
Pretty much.
311
Pretty much.
312
That's what the whole album sounds like.
313
Thank you.
314
Okay, now, would you be able to rank the top three favorite songs that you've ever created?
315
What are they?
316
I'm going to mix them with what mine are and what the fans are, I reckon.
317
So I reckon someone like you would be number one.
318
I think there's a new song on the new album that would be my number second or be my second one.
319
And then When We Were Young.
320
I really love that song.
321
I love singing it.
322
It means a lot to me.
323
Great selections.
324
And can you do the same for Beyonce's top albums?
325
You know, that could be controversial.
326
The Hive might come and kill me.
327
I'm, okay, my personal favorites.
328
My first one is Sasha Fierce, that sublime double album.
329
The second one would be Lemonade.
330
The third one is a bit of a toss-up between two, but I'm gonna go with my gut and my heart, and I'm gonna say B-Day.
331
You know she's gonna watch this.
332
Woo!
333
Was breaking your Grammy in half for Beyoncé easier or harder than you thought it would be?
334
It was actually really easy.
335
I was just so uncomfortable and nervous up on the stage trying to give that speech right in front of her.
336
I just sort of twisted off and fell off with my hand.
337
It felt like fate.
338
On the internet, there is David Attenborough narrating your Hello!
339
music video.
340
Yes, there is.
341
With his iconic voice.
342
Yeah.
343
Was that totally surreal, watching that?
344
It was incredible.
345
It was live on radio.
346
I don't even know if he knew that he was doing it.
347
He just sort of had to watch the video and read the lyrics, you know, read his script and stuff like that.
348
But he's like everything in the UK.
349
Like, we love him so much.
350
And he's my mum's hero, so it was phenomenal.
351
Yes.
352
Do you read what people write about you on the internet?
353
Very rarely.
354
What's the most ridiculous rumor you've ever heard about yourself?
355
I think all the crazy rumors about my love life, um, you know, since I've been single and stuff like that.
356
They're just, none of it's true.
357
So probably those.
358
In your career, do you think there was ever a time that you felt like you couldn't be yourself?
359
No, I've been very, very lucky with that.
360
And I know that, no, never.
361
What's the proudest possession that you own?
362
It's actually inside.
363
Let's go in.
364
Okay, let's see.
365
In the meantime, how about some British this or that questions?
366
Okay.
367
Blur or Oasis?
368
Blur.
369
Noel or Liam?
370
Definitely Liam, without a doubt.
371
Prince William or Prince Harry?
372
Prince Harry.
373
Spicy.
374
Spice Girls or the Beatles?
375
I mean, that's a bit unfair, but I'm going to go with Spice Girls.
376
By the way, what's the most impressive thing about the Spice Girls?
377
They really don't care.
378
They really, really, really don't care about anything.
379
And I can think just their brashness and stuff like that, I think.
380
Okay, what do we have here?
381
It's pretty amazing.
382
All right.
383
Celine Dion's gum.
384
That's right.
385
What's going on here?
386
James Corden, who's a friend of mine but also does carpool karaoke, which I did, he did it with her and knew how much a fan of her I was, and so he made her spit her gum into a piece of paper and he framed it for me.
387
And it's my proudest possession.
388
Three questions left before I get out of here, Adele.
389
Okay.
390
While the whole world is waiting, I'm going to attempt to try to get you to spill some tea on the next album.
391
Good luck.
392
Alright.
393
If 25 closed a trilogy, what is something new you'll explore for the first time in your next album?
394
Does anything ever really end?
395
What one specific thing that's different in this album than every other album?
396
It's definitely my most personal one yet, I think, yeah.
397
And last question, question number 73.
398
What's the new album's name?
399
Well, let's keep going and maybe you'll find out.
400
Uh, that's unconventional.
401
This is a 73 question interview and...
402
Oh, let's do it.
403
It's so much fun.
404
Sit down, don't you come to me.
405
Okay.
406
Uh, I love the Skyfall theme.
407
Oh, good.
408
How is recording this Bond theme different than recording your other stuff?
409
Well, I was heavily pregnant actually when I did the vocal for Skyfall.
410
So, and it's the only song that I recorded while I was pregnant with him.
411
So my voice was a lot lower and he also hated it when I was singing the high notes.
412
sort of kick around inside of me.
413
Who would you bet is going to be the next James Bond?
414
I mean, it's a tough one.
415
There's been lots of different choices and stuff.
416
But I would like Jonathan Major to be the next Bond, but I don't know if that's allowed, because he's American.
417
Would you like some milk?
418
Yeah, yeah, I'd love that.
419
But I think Idris Elba.
420
And what song, not yours, have you sung the most in your life?
421
My heart will go on.
422
And who would you love to cover one of your songs?
423
Barbra Streisand.
424
Now I know you love Nicki Minaj.
425
I do.
426
If you were to collab on a track with Nicki Minaj, what would it be called?
427
Mum Lee.
428
There you go.
429
Oh, thank you.
430
And that was question 78, but now that we're having tea, I might as well stick around.
431
Might as well.
432
Okay.
433
Question number 79.
434
Favorite restaurant in London?
435
Kai's.
436
I'll just keep going with the British questions.
437
Oh, please do.
438
Favorite pub of all time?
439
The Warmer Castle.
440
Oh, that tea is good.
441
What's a stereotype about the UK that's totally true?
442
That it always rains.
443
What about one that's completely false?
444
I feel like everyone thinks that we've all met the Queen, and we haven't.
445
So yeah, we'll be there.
446
Now we're at 82 questions with Adele.
447
Having fun?
448
Yeah.
449
Good, me too.
450
Keep going.
451
Favorite curse word?
452
.
453
What telly have you been binging these days?
454
Oh, I noticed that.
455
I have been binge watching on the telly Ted Lasso.
456
I think it's great.
457
It's very British as well.
458
What might people not know about wearing your hair in a beehive?
459
Well, if it's your own natural hair as a beehive, it gets a bit smelly.

Übungstipps für dieses Video
Um die Shadowing-Technik beim Ansehen dieses Videos effektiv anzuwenden, sollten Lernende darauf achten, die Sprechgeschwindigkeit von Adele und dem Interviewer aufmerksam zu beobachten. Adele hat einen typischen britischen Akzent, der Anfängern und Fortgeschrittenen helfen kann, ihre Ausspracheübung zu verfeinern. Anfänger sollten sich am besten auf kürzere Abschnitte konzentrieren und diese mehrmals wiederholen. Fortgeschrittene Lernende könnten versuchen, die subtilen Nuancen des britischen Englisch zu erfassen, die in Adeles Ausdrucksweise deutlich werden. Das Video thematisiert einfache, aber bedeutende Alltagsthemen, die sowohl für IELTS Speaking als auch für informelle Unterhaltungen nützlich sind. Wechsle zwischen aktivem Zuhören und lautem Nachsprechen der Phrasen, um die eigene Sprechflüssigkeit zu erhöhen.
Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
