Men…Try and ignore the eye candy on this one…The Southern University Band is cooking!
The Human Jukebox, performed a passionate rendition of “Hello” at the Bayou Classic Battle of the Bands on the Friday after Thanksgiving. With Southern – it is all about the music, and Grambling is no slouch either..
Just days after she announced her widely anticipated return, Adele dropped a new music video for “Hello,” the first single off her upcoming record, “25.”
The 27-year-old Brit hasn’t released an album in more than four years. Her last age-themed record, “21,” earned her six Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year, in 2012. The soulstress also won the 2013 Academy Award for Best Original Song for the title song for the 007 flick “Skyfall.”
“25” will be released on Nov. 20. You can find the entire track list here.
This from a to be released album by the 72 year old Queen of Soul. Re Re still has some chops, but you can only imagine what the 1967 version of her would have done.
I actually like both versions, Adele’s because it has a bit of a raw quality starting out, and Aretha’s because of the dynamic range.
