I didn’t really “get” Adele until I heard this version of Someone Like You. I mean, I liked her well enough, but she never really knocked my socks off.
This recording is from the NPR Tiny Desk concert series, where artists are invited to perform sans accoutrements in the NPR offices. Specifically, behind Bob Boilen’s tiny desk.
It send chills up my spine.
You can watch the whole performance (Someone Like You, Chasing Pavements, Rolling in the Deep) at the NPRMusic youtube channel.
