Adele's "Skyfall"

esquire

Slow songs have always been harder for me to learn and like than up tempo ones, but not always.  Earlier this evening, British phenom Adele released the first song since her widely acclaimed 21 album from almost two years ago.  The song is from the newest James Bond flick of the same name, and it's typical Adele, beautiful and full of soul.  Check out Skyfall. 

Skyfall

This is the end
Hold your breath and count to ten
Feel the earth move and then
Hear my heart burst again

For this is the end
I've drowned and dreamed this moment
So overdue, I owe them
Swept away, I'm stolen

Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Or face it all together

Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Or face it all together
At skyfall

Skyfall is where we start
A thousand miles and poles apart
When worlds collide, and days are dark
You may have my number, you can take my name
But you'll never have my heart

Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Or face it all together

Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Or face it all together
At skyfall

Where you go I go
What you see I see
I know i'll never be without the security
Are your loving arms
Keeping me from harm
Put your hand in my hand
And we'll stand

Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Or face it all together

Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Or face it all together
At skyfall

Let the sky fall
We will stand tall
At skyfall
