In the first line of “Rolling in the Deep,” Adele warns us of a coming fire, then she burns everything to the ground. The lead single from the mega-selling breakup album 21 transformed her into a global star, and she has hardly made anything like it since. The lyrics quickly abandon hell-hath-no-fury cliché: By the pre-chorus, the boiling anger has cooled into sadness, revealing protruding scars. The music follows suit—Adele once described the song as “dark bluesy gospel disco,” which feels like the made-up sub-genre she was born to sing. Her vocal control, the way she allows melisma to curl around the edges of her voice, is like a superpower that needed this song to reveal it. –Rich Juzwiak
在Rolling in the Deep第一句歌词中,Adele预示了一场烈火的到来,然后她将一切化为平地。销量bug的分手专辑《21》让她成为国际巨星,在那之后她几乎没有再出过这样的作品。歌词抛弃了阴郁愤怒的陈词滥调,在副歌之前,沸腾的愤怒已经冷却为悲伤,显露出明显的伤疤。这首歌与Adele的个人风格也一致——阿黛尔曾经把这首歌描述为“黑暗的布鲁西福音迪斯科”,而这首歌也就像为Adele量身定做一样。Adele灵活使用花腔,对整首歌的声音把控得很好,把情感的爆发传达地淋漓尽致。
