I was so excited for "30" but there's not one song I wanted to hear again. Not a melody to be found. But do love her voice. 

My favortie was "Christmas Isn't Cancelled Just You" by Kelly Clarkson. She managed to take her theme - breakup songs - and apply it to a Christmas album. Brilliant. And her vocals are top notch.

Those were the last two albums I purchased in 2021.    I liked "30" alot more than you.  I have a handful of favorites, but only a handful.  It got to the point that many of the songs sounded the same. Kelly's Christmas cd was alot of fun.  I don't buy alot of Christmas music since I'm Jewish.  But am a big fan of hers so I went for it.  I think I enjoyed her cd more than Adele.

Maybe I just wanted Adele's album to be perfect because I love her music, but listened to it on a road trip and just couldn't find one song I'd want to hear again. Heard the "OMG" song on the radio and was singing along. So maybe it grew on me.
