Hometown Glory专辑介绍
Adele个人第一支单曲《Hometown Glory》起初只作为限量发行500张的7寸单曲，没有拍摄MV没有派台打榜甚至没有任何的宣传，却仅仅因为它略显伤感的旋律和失落的小情绪渐渐走红。随着专辑《19》的发行，这首歌也在2008年重新以单曲CD的形式发行，并且凭借在多部热门英剧、美剧中的出现被歌迷传唱。
《Hometown Glory》作为Adele第一次在流行乐坛的“发声”实在让人有太多的惊喜，我们总是把“歌手”看做太多身份的综合体，要有模特一般的身材长相、有真人秀明星一样的出挑性格、有舞者一样的舞蹈天赋，可是却往往忽略了“歌手”的本质。Adele超龄的成熟唱腔带着一丝沙哑，像是陈年的红酒一样醇香。
"Hometown Glory" is the first single from Adele's debut album 19, released on 22 October 2007 in the United Kingdom. In 2008, the song was re-released as her fourth single. Adele wrote the song in 10 minutes after her mother tried to persuade her to leave her home town of West Norwood in London for university. In 2007, "Hometown Glory" was released on singer Jamie T's Pacemaker Recordings label as a limited edition 7" vinyl single, of which only 500 copies were made.[1] The song failed to chart primarily. However, due to high downloads of the song during the release week of her 19 album, the song managed to chart inside the UK Singles Chart Top 40 for the first time. The song was later released in 2008 as Adele's debut single for the U.S. market. Due to the popularity of the song in the UK, which resulted in the song charting inside the UK Top 40 twice on download sales alone, the song was (re-)released as the third single (fourth including the original single release) from the album on 21 July 2008. As of July, 2008, the track has become Adele's third consecutive UK Top 20 hit single. The song received a Grammy nomination for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.
