The microphone in question has a hypercardioid polar pattern, which makes it pick up signal from further away and it's also used for us to hear her sing!
periurban could have used some pitch correction here and there. Flat and off key in spots as well as nasally. Painful at times. I was surprised because she's usually great.
Love that she's still got her coat and gloves on and her bag on her shoulder. Like "yeah hold on let me just sing a few songs for these people for a minute then we'll go to the bar"
This was actually my first official exposure to Adele, and I was so taken aback by the contrast between her speaking and singing voices. She speaks so softly and almost timidly, but then she starts singing with one of the most commanding and powerful voices I've ever heard. Astounding artist.
What a nice first experience. I still can’t find the first video I ever saw of her. It’s her and her guitar player on the beach I think singing rolling in the deep?
the way she kept saying thank you thank you very much. shes so grateful and her gratitude is extremely warming and sweet. shes so amazing and i wonder if she knows how amazing she is
Well actually.. tbh... Every, I mean EVERY TIME she hits the "high" notes, I get SUPER stressed because it sounds like she is straining.... I'm always like oh I hope she can hit the notes... 😶🙊
Many moons ago, my friend who had followed her heart to Ireland told me of this amazing singer over there and that I should have a listen. Of course 'Chasing Pavements' was the song to hear and I fell in love. Then after returning back home to Toronto, my friend surprised me one night with tickets to go see Adele at Massey Hall (40$ a ticket too). On stage appeared the shy Adele adorned in a stripped t-shirt and leggings, and no shoes, just socks. She was humble as she gushed over our city (of course as they do) and just sat on the stool in the middle of the stage. It felt like I was sitting in her home listening to her belt out her ballads of moments in her life that had torn her apart and sewn her back together again. It truly was a magical night that I will never forget.
I’m from Toronto(ish) too and I would have loved to see that show. The two best concerts of my life were at Massey Hall; Joe Jackson in ‘82 and Regina Spektor earlier this year
never said she was Irish, but my friend who was staying there said they were playing her song "Chasing Pavements" on the radio, and that I should have a listen.@@mr.monotonous6659
@@mr.monotonous6659 They said Adele was "over there" in Ireland where their friend followed their heart to go, and never said Adele was Irish or from there. Adele was in Ireland many times, but for sure specificcally on tour in 2008 when Chasing Pavements was 'the song to hear" because it was literally the song the show ended on. Nice "nice try though" try, though. Don't be insufferable. Nobody thinks you're cool; even you -- being a snotty person is the easiest laziest thing to do. Expect more from yourself. Nobody was being weird or antagonistic. It was someone sharing a nice story in a nice video of music. Since nobody's that fragile, next time you feel like saying something like that, don't, and move on.
A crappy little office, but with great microphones is in some ways the best of all possible venues, because even the best singers will do even better in an intimate setting than a big venue. You can underestimate the power of looking directly into people's eyes when emoting to them.
The office is in no way crappy nor is it small. It is also being recorded on some of the best mics around, And one or more people working live sound. which includes eq, compression, and delay/reverb, gates, etc. It is amazing what you can do with a computer and a great microphone plus amazing artist and engineers.
I'd be honored if some Adele fans would check out my acoustic piano & vocal cover (live, no autotune) of PRAYING FOR TIME on my channel in tribute to the great GEORGE MICHAEL. The man hasn't gotten his due for all the contributions he made to modern music as a vocalist, songwriter and producer. But eventually he will get his due. THANK YOU GEORGE. WE MISS YOU.
NPR really does an amazing job at providing truly Raw showings of artists. After being introduced to the music scene, I’ve never felt music stronger than in small performances like these. Tiny Desk is the Perfect example of this. No big audio controller to change everything like a big stage show, no editing from recordings, just pure, unfiltered joy ringing from the musicians expressing their emotions. This platform has made me truly love my favorites on a whole new level, when I know it’s hard to get into small shows on big artists. Thank you, NPR, I’ve overlooked Adele for years and this video made me realize how good she actually is.
I could not agree more, THIS is what music is suppose to be 90% of the time, there is a time & place for full production stuff but 90% of the time these intimate performances are what allow people to "FEEL" the story

Omg the fact that she kills it in the beginning with her super strong amazing voice, and when the song ends she cutely says in a very soft different way "thank you." Such a queen.
she's really unbelievable. Her voice so powerful, it sound so smooth and clear, and with almost no stress at all. What a singer, just her voice and two instruments.
I read the comments before i started watching and read all the comments about the zoom... now that i'm watching and seeing it for myself, i cant stop laughing...Camera man zoom game strong! 💪 😂
It's a masterclass is "less is more" and telling stories. I love the guitar player - his eyes are closed nearly throughout 'Someone Like You', completely immersed and letting the whole experience wash over him. What a privilege, sat next to Adele while she sings her heart out like always but in such close proximity.
If there is, it's very subtle. And she is some distance away from the mic, which is different than holding the mic 2 cm from her lips, like most weak singers do. I'm no expert, but I think she's for real a few classes above any other pop stars.
This! Yes, in the tiny desk version you can see Adele channeling through the emotions. Raw, real, gives me the chills, The radio version of the song is too loud, overproduced, busy. She belts out the song more like Streisand.
***** - The difference between you and I is that I *do* have my shit together whereas you are a follower of others that don't use proper English YO. Additionally I do my best to comment with positive notes included. I noticed you commented on another NPR TDC which included The Pixies where you said NPR blew it because a certain song you felt should have been included wasn't. Dude, if you know what's going on, you'd realize NPR has NOTHING to do with what the song list will be. This is left up to the performers as to which songs will be played. It's called TINY Desk Concert for a reason. It is a *small* sampling of the artists' work. Be more positive and your life will become much more satisfying.
i don't know how to describe it her voice is out of this world. so emotional also very easy to listen and comfortable. what a singer what a voice she has
This woman is one the finest songwriters and singers our United Kingdom has ever produced. She has light and shade, power and passion, and just superb vocal control, range and tone
When they did the zoom in on her face at the beginning of Rolling in the Deep, I was so transfixed watching the shapes she was making with her mouth to get all round-toned and resonant that I didn't realize I was just inches from the monitor, and when she belllowed the "could've have it AAAAALLLL" the sound coming from her mouth actually blew my hair back.
Watching this 9 years later and the description is incredible, “two new songs to go along with her hit” and chasing pavements was the song I had never heard

Ok
I’m just going
bro we need kendrick lamar
Adele needs to do a new Tiny desk concert
She sure does. And with more than three songs next time!
after what the camera man did, she may never 😂😂😂
I was just saying same
I like applesauce
I really need that
Sound production modern perfect.
Camera work... Dad at Disney '84
lololol agree but I don't care much about the video work so long as the audio is amazing
Dad at disney circa 1984 hilarious
mendocino marine 😂
Omg exact 😹
I kind of like it, makes it seem more authentic
her singing voice is so deep and soulful... her normal voice is so British and endearing, I can't explain it
I noticed that 😂
And that cackle-laugh, though! I love her 😝💜
Would just like to say her voice is basically a typical London accent, not British. None of my friends or family sound like her
@@TheJewadbashir It's not really strange , when you sing it's perfectly natural to you,.
@@lucko1979 all my friends and family sound like her, but we are from Essex.
the way she changes from her talking voice to her singing voice is so crazy to me, she is easly the most talented singer of our generation.

Why tho , she was clearly uncomfortable all the way
@@brgvcwhy
No effects. No pitch correction. No multiple takes. No room ambience. Just that voice. It's enough.

There is a reason all the other pop singing "queens" are yet to be seen on one of these.

Clearly the best tiny desk concert in history. Its just perfect, her vooice gives me peace.

Her performance is perfect, and if the camera work was better, it would be a perfect video
definitelu up there. Mac has the best one imo
Not at all
@@darkorlightz I was going to say this til I saw your comment, Mac's performance of 2009 brings me to tears everytime

Brought me back to 1975 when I was a total wreck as a youth of 22. Still stings. But God bless her wherever she is.!!!
Trevor Stevens see a doctor bro
Like me, right now lol powerful
GET BACK IN THERE TEAR!!
cloudy with a chance of meatballs
She made hitting notes perfectly appear effortless. Talent.
@jaredyjaredy Not limited talent, awareness. It's not appropriate to belt out high sections of her songs in an intimate room and stuffy acoustics.
Always.. Shes better live most of time. .. Still ❤
@Stephens Stephens You don't need to be a scientist to teach science.
@jaredyjaredy Talent is to know when to sing to your capability, not to hit the highest possible not.
Well actually.. tbh... Every, I mean EVERY TIME she hits the "high" notes, I get SUPER stressed because it sounds like she is straining.... I'm always like oh I hope she can hit the notes... 😶🙊
We want Adele to do Tiny desk again
that camera work makes it seems like an office episode though
😂😂
I lol’d
Lmao 👏🏻
I smiled
I'm laughing so hard
I love how she belts a song so well and then as soon as she finishes, *teeny voice* "thank you"
Just imagine how legendary this footage will be in 50 years. 100 years. Astonishing.
Those zooms will also transcend time haha.
Wow, I can't believe this video is already 13 years old! 😮

Just a piano, a guitar, a microphone, and Adele... and she doesn't sing a single note wrong. TALENT.
Don't forget the zoom cameraman
For real, it's rare for artist to sound the same without the studio.
Some even sound horrible live.
She did sing notes wrong, but that’s not that important with live performances. It’s more about intention and overall energy
@@luukwoudstra8903 Agreed. I think it adds character and emotion you just don't get from the final polished versions.
No autotune , no reverb, nothing but pure amazing talent!
As soon as she hit that first note I rolled my eyes and said Of course. Of course it's perfect.
Same
Yep me too
What a performance. Her tone, her rhythm, her storytelling- perfection

We could've had it all (tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could've had it all (you're gonna wish you never had met me)
It all, it all, it all (tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could've had it all (you're gonna wish you)
(Never had met me)
Rolling in the deep (tears are gonna fall)
(Rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside (you're gonna wish you)
Of your hands (never had met me)
And you played it (tears are gonna fall)
To the beat (rolling in the deep)
Could've had it all (you're gonna wish you)
(Never had met me)
Rolling in the deep (tears are gonna fall)
(Rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside (you're gonna wish you)
Of your hands (never had met me)
But you played it, you played it, you played it
You played it to the beat
Cant believe it s been already 10 yrs. Good music never ages.
True
Yea…. That’s how I feel too. Time is so unforgiving.
I am just happy that this woman gets the recognition she deserves. She is remarkable. Her performance hypnotizes.
When she makes noise everyone already knows to respect her
Has there ever been a more beautiful gift? My goodness.
Her voice is so powerful. And she sounds just like she does on record. Unbelievable!
Omg the fact that she kills it in the beginning with her super strong amazing voice, and when the song ends she cutely says in a very soft different way "thank you." Such a queen.
I like the way she laughs. It is like a little girl. Kind of pure. So cute.
What a talent! Pure talent. The vocal gymnastics is just out of this world.
she's really unbelievable. Her voice so powerful, it sound so smooth and clear, and with almost no stress at all. What a singer, just her voice and two instruments.
PETITION TO GET ADELE IN A NEW TINY DESK CONCERT!! ✋🏼
She's 23 in this video... Crazy
Amus
Wtf. I'M 23. Lmao
I guarantee she will look exactly the same until she’s 50
She grew up fast!
Everyone is 23....once
I cant belive it took me 13 years to find this
😂😂
Same here, I'm not really into "pop" tunes, but her voice is incredibly pure. 100%fire❤
The camera zoom related comments are hilarious, I’m in tears 😂😂 Also, Adele is amazing I’m in tears 😭😭
👍
I read the comments before i started watching and read all the comments about the zoom... now that i'm watching and seeing it for myself, i cant stop laughing...Camera man zoom game strong! 💪 😂
🤣 🤣
😂 😂 😂 😂
I’m doing the exact same 😂
Christelle same
😂 I can't stop laughing with the many zooms.
Came for the music, but man, these comments about the camera work, hilarious!
I swear. I'm spending too much time reading these comments 😂😂👊👊✌
Ort then 🤣
lol
🤣🤣
Exactly...I love her voice, however I enjoyed the comments more than the music. These people with such hilarious & clever remarks.
Adele always sounds so perfect. 👌🏽
It's a masterclass is "less is more" and telling stories. I love the guitar player - his eyes are closed nearly throughout 'Someone Like You', completely immersed and letting the whole experience wash over him. What a privilege, sat next to Adele while she sings her heart out like always but in such close proximity.
You'll be happy to know that the guitarist is her friend from school and has been playing with her the entire time :) Awesome performance.
It’s crazy that she sounds how she does on recording no audio engineering just talent
Oh, there's a ton of audio engineering, there's no post-processing. When it comes to audio engineers, NPR has the deepest bench in the game
@@DanielWalters i know it's not a big deal but sometimes it's funny when people think there's no post-production done simply because it's a live show.
If there is, it's very subtle. And she is some distance away from the mic, which is different than holding the mic 2 cm from her lips, like most weak singers do. I'm no expert, but I think she's for real a few classes above any other pop stars.
Lo mismo pensé yo pero en mi idioma 🥰😂😂
Today I learned what the back on Adele’s uvula looks like. I can knock that one off my bucket list. Thanks cameraman!
hahaa
Alternative/Rap fan here but something about this women's voice. You can see her channeling the real emotions that led to the album. Incredible
This! Yes, in the tiny desk version you can see Adele channeling through the emotions. Raw, real, gives me the chills, The radio version of the song is too loud, overproduced, busy. She belts out the song more like Streisand.
SERIOUSLY!?!?!? This is studio quality.... stunning
+Bamsambam33 The guys and gals at NPR Music know how to record yo
+Qriztofer - I don't _'yo'_ but you sure got the rest of it right!
+Racer get your shit together then. Jesus Christ...
***** - The difference between you and I is that I *do* have my shit together whereas you are a follower of others that don't use proper English YO. Additionally I do my best to comment with positive notes included.
I noticed you commented on another NPR TDC which included The Pixies where you said NPR blew it because a certain song you felt should have been included wasn't. Dude, if you know what's going on, you'd realize NPR has NOTHING to do with what the song list will be. This is left up to the performers as to which songs will be played.
It's called TINY Desk Concert for a reason. It is a *small* sampling of the artists' work. Be more positive and your life will become much more satisfying.
Racer Just a joke, man. Just a joke.
Adele: hoped you'd see my face
Cameraman: _Don't worry, girl_
Omg the ignorant laugh I just had because of this 😂😂😂😂
somebody help me. this comment and "rolling in the teeth"just killed me😂😂😂
somebody help me. this comment and "rolling in the teeth"just killed me😂😂😂
Rofl!!! 😂😆🤣😳🤣 She's getting that close up, Mr DeVille, wether she is ready or not!!
Oh my wordddd I choked on candy corn😭😂😂😂😭😭😭
Right when she started singing I started tearing up. Her songs are so relatable and emotional
Her voice sounds exactly like it does in her record. Wow 😮 ❤️
Heidy Iglesias even better than recorded. More vivid. Which is just amazing
She’s crazy talented and I feel a bit underrated. Such a gift
She eats cds for breakfast, lunch, and dinner❤🎶
@@lucasf6689 so much passion too. got chills. no record ever gives me chills. so much freaking frisson in this video
Exactly..even her live performances are sometimes better..Adele doesn't have autotune in her dictionary ..
people hearing adele sing in that room received blessing more than they deserve.
LOLOLLLLLOL
One of the easiest job on earth is to edit her voice into studio quality, because it sounds already like studio quality. Bravo adele
Crying right now--so loving her performance---her voice, her presence, her modesty. Beautiful.
Adele: Rolling in the deep
Cameraman: Rolling in the teeth
I literally cackled reading this.
The comments are killing me 😂
yours is literally the best comment
@@sadieheckman3629 xD thanks I'm trying lol, honestly so many hilarious ones in this video
Rolling in the teeeeeee e.eth!! 😂😂😂
Scary.... how many vocalists can deliver such perfect performance? Casual premium quality.
Camerman was reading through the instruction manual while recording this. I think he nailed the chapter on Zooming! Good job
And needs to be fired 🤦🏽♀️
i don't know how to describe it her voice is out of this world.
so emotional also very easy to listen and comfortable.
what a singer what a voice she has
This woman is one the finest songwriters and singers our United Kingdom has ever produced. She has light and shade, power and passion, and just superb vocal control, range and tone
weasel210672 Florence and the Machine too
Rafael S No
robleake yes
Indeed.
When they did the zoom in on her face at the beginning of Rolling in the Deep, I was so transfixed watching the shapes she was making with her mouth to get all round-toned and resonant that I didn't realize I was just inches from the monitor, and when she belllowed the "could've have it AAAAALLLL" the sound coming from her mouth actually blew my hair back.
I love that she's so quiet and sweet in her speaking voice...then she starts to sing and belts it out like woah. Love it!! 😊
My mom died in 2020. This was her fav. RIP Mom. ❤❤❤
I’m sorry for your loss ❤
@candidlyopinionated19 ty. It's OK. I miss her but weirdly I know she is good. I feel her near me. But ya she loved some Adele.
my mom passed away 12-9-18 miss her so much every day she loved Adele so much god bless you and your beautiful mom
@richnittritz3505 you too. A good Mom is unlike anyone else. Irreplaceable. ❤️ hope u are OK today. Sending my love.
Adele's voice hits one in the heart and gut. What an instrument she possesses. Amazing.
She just showed up and casually blew everybody’s minds🤯
SO casual. No big deal, my voice just moves oceans.
Generational talent. Everest of a performance. I, of course, mean the cameraman.
her voice is the Biggest instrument that's why she is so iconic, doesn't need all those instruments or sound effects other artists use.
Watching this 9 years later and the description is incredible, “two new songs to go along with her hit” and chasing pavements was the song I had never heard
Funny how things change. Chasing Pavements was her first real hit.
