I know you think my opinion stinks but I find her and her music annoying.
However, I will say something perhaps controversial:
Although I dislike Lady Gaga, I completely understand why she is like she is and respect her for what she does. I saw being interviewed recently and she's an intelligent woman who knows full well what she's doing. Much like Marilyn Manson does as well. Although I think she's more normal than he is.
Plus she's a great performer even if you do hate her songs, like I do.

Adele is like a bad sober version of Amy Winehouse with an eating disorder.

I don't think she's sober... she never looks sober...

You're not supposed to make jokes of Amy Winehouse because she's dead and some people here genuinely respect her.

I really like watching Marilyn Manson interviews. He is a smart dude.

That's what I was saying. I don't like him but he is an intelligent guy, even if he has taken things to a weird extreme.

I don't like what I have heard from Lady Gaga and I find her stage persona to be a complete turnoff, so I really have little interest there. I highly suspect that I might not care for Adele either, it is just the articles that I read always talk about what an amazing voice she has. I generally take that with a grain of salt as I usually hate most pop divas, but I was just curious. Maybe I will try out her album if it is on Spotify or check out a Youtube video or something. I'm not expecting anything prog, just something mainstream that i might enjoy.

Both Marilyn and Gaga are masters at marketing themselves.

That's irrelevant. (No pun intended.)

Since I have not heard Amy Winehouse either, the description only vaguely helps. I really have little interest in either, I am just curious as to hearing what the mainstream world is so enamored with.

Yep, that's exactly it. I'm just jealous, 'tis all! Scott, her stage persona is a turn-off for me too but she's good at it. I'd never listen to her music but she's not all mysterious like some musicians are. She talks about her past and is happy to say who she really is. I know more about Lady Gaga than I do about Vompatti.

I don't know what an Adele is.
Also, never listened to Winehouse.
