And the funny thing is her Adele song, an artist known more for her ballads, was an upbeat one.
While on the subject of themes, I agree that most of them are useless when it comes to who the artists are. I doubt any of these contestants will be making Adele type music. I'd estimate only 5% of them are relevant. However, they have been here since the beginning and aren't going away any time soon, so it's something any aspiring contestant needs to be aware of. One of my favorite things about the show is seeing how the contestants handle them. Besides, some of the themes are cool, such as Songs From The Year You Were Born, the decade ones, and Songs You Wish You Wrote.
Welcome back! I don't mind waiting until you're caught up. I'll just say a lot has happened since you were last in here.
The Abi headlining tours are the middle ground. If you can't pay the 20 or 30 dollars that will cost then I guess you just have to stick to listening to her on Spotify or YouTube or whatever.
