She is a great album seller but not quite a singles artists.
I mean at best she got 3 TOP 10 hits from each album.
With her latest album she finally got 3 TOP 5 hits from the same album.
Lots of singles that didn't faired so well.
Never thought that "Set Fire To The Rain" missed the TOP 10.

the only reason only 3 songs from her new album charted is because OCC put a limit of 3 songs on the amount of songs an artist can chart at once

It's on his album 'Red', it was never a single.
Guilherme Hentz
Chasing Pavements, Rolling in the Deep and Skyfall all deserved to be number ones...

I predict that we have reached Peak Adele with the release of her latest single. Whereupon the great record buying public finally realize that she only really has one thing to say, and it's getting kind of tiresome hearing a multimillionairess mope about some guy who dumped her five years ago.

https://disqus.com/by/grantburnside/ I love that you quote The Great & Late Miss DONNA SUMMER, one of the most underrated of singer/ songwriters, who received one of her 5 Grammies for "Hot Stuff" in the - wait for it- ROCK category!!! Yes you've read correctly: the first solo female artist ever to win in this usually male dominated category, despite us referring to her as The Queen of Disco. The Noughties decade was dominated by bad taste music fuelled by our manic post 9/11 aftermath depression, resulting in for sensationalist celebrity culture with little substance (escapism). It was all about quantity and stupid 'novelty factor'. ADELE is the anti-(noughty) pop star that became the ultimate pop star for the post credit crunch Teens Era.

It is interesting that Adele released two singles from her 25 album on the same day, and on the same day the album came out. I have picked my 5 songs that I think should be singles, I'll wait and see how many are released

They weren't released as singles, they were popular album tracks downloaded heavily when the album came out.

I totally agree with BrixTom - Varied chart positions show growth and longevity - those artists who have several number one's in a very short space of time will more than likely have faded a year or two later, forgotten by most. Let's be honest here - who on earth now plays Geri Halliwell, Sporty Spice, Britney, Cheryl or any other similar artists songs? Will ANYONE be playing them in twenty or thirty years? I really doubt it. Donna Summer had one UK number one song in her career here in the UK with 'I Feel Love'. It wasn't her first big hit, nor her last. At the time of her death in 2012 she had amassed a fortune of £75m - which certainly wasn't all made from the royalties of 'I Feel Love'. She dipped in and out of the top forty twenty nine times in her lengthy career, which saw many changes of styles and sounds. She also also scored fourteen top ten hits in the U.S, four of which went to number one. The sign of an artist growing, changing, moving forward. Another example: Ella Fitzgerald, probably one of the finest singers on the planet of all time, with practically no chart hits. The facts are there. Adele's chart positions show her growth, and her much deserved enormous popularity.

As per the Beatles you mean? 17 Number One Singles and 11 Number 1 Albums in 7 years? Who remembers them eh?

She is the modern Dusty Springfield meets Mariah Carey (minus the dolphin range). What an adorable singer/ songwriter and pure talent. Looking at her varied chart positions, it goes to show that the amount of #1s are not positively correlated to musical talent. Mariah Carey (singer/ songwriter) only has had 2 #1s in this country so far, yet J-Lo had 3 and that voiceless troll Cheryl Cole had, wait for it, 5 (plus 4 more with Girls Aloud)! So, this proves my theory that the more talented you are, musically, the lesser #1s you will have, compared to a dolled up, heavily marketed, lesser and musically inferior "product"!

Voiceless troll that got me. But you have a good point.

, even Bob the Builder reached two #1s in this country
