Adele - To Be Loved 

No mic, no special effects, just a voice in a room with a piano on a MacBook?! True undeniable pure talent. Real raw music!! This is amazing.

excuse me while im overwhelmed with emotion 🥺

My dad passed away around two weeks ago... Just before he went to the hospital and went on a ventilator he told me this was his favorite song. Nothing thus far has made me cry so quickly, this is a truly beautiful song and it resonates with my thoughts and feelings going through this loss

I want to dedicate this song to all the hard lovers out there. God knows that we tried. He has now fully taken over and control over our hearts and desire of love and to be loved. At the right time. God will make it happen. ❤

Her vocals are insane

this song is so good

"there were a couple notes" ??? ma'am this was the most flawless display of emotion thank you

In a living room. On a sofa. SITTING!!! Epic talent.

Lyrics: I built a house For a love to grow I was so young It was hard to know I'm as lost now as i was back then Always make a mess of everything It's about time that I face myself All I do is bleed into someone else Painting walls with all my secreties Filling rooms with all my hopes and fears But oh my oh my I'll never learn if I never leap I'll always yearn if I never speak To be loved and love At the highest count Means to loose all the things I can't live without Let it be known That i will choose to loose It's a sacrifice But i can't life a lie Let it be known Let it be known That I tried I'm so afraid but I'm open wide I'll be the one to catch myself this time Try to learn to lean into it all Ain't it funny how the mighty fall Looking back I don't regret a thing Yeah I took some bad turns that I'm owning I'll stand still and let the storm pass by Keep my heart safe till the time feels right But oh my oh my I'll never learn if I never leap I'll always yearn if I never speak To be loved and love At the highest count Means to loose all the things I can't live without Let it be known That i will choose to loose It's a sacrifice But i can't life a lie Let it be known Let it be known That I cried For you Even started lying to you What a thing to do All because I wanted To be loved and love At the highest count Means to loose all the things I can't live without Let it be known That i will choose to loose It's a sacrifice But i can't life a lie Let it be known Let it be known That I cried That I cried Let it be known That I tried

I love how shes just releasing live songs😍

I FELT EACH AND EVERY WORD, Adele! 😭

Its beautiful to have been grown up with you. From 21 to 30. From 17 to 24.. and still learning and growing in the presence of this new album. I'm grateful Adele 🍂

This woman can sing sitting naturally in a sofa like nobody else. The song is like a stab in the heart. Perfect.

her voice is so powerful the phone microphone couldn't handle it 😭

The end though ☠️😂 like she just performed one of the most purest rawest emotional songs ever and sounded angelic and was like it was no biggie lol. Amazing isn’t even a fair word to describe that

Probably one of the greatest voices I’ve ever heard

I mean, if you're not blown away by this raw singing footage...

im absolutely DYING at the ending... gives the most amazing vocal performance of the entire year and just ends it SO CASUALLY she is so funny. love her.

I hardly ever comment here, but I listened to 30 in one sitting and I will never forget what this song did to me the first time it came on because it still has the same effect. It's so raw, so honest, so relatable...this video is just her. Sitting at home in lounge wear and pouring her heart out in every notep with no mic, no effects, no pianist. I'm in awe of you. Thank you for everything that you are ❤🙌🏻.

30 is honestly such a transformational album. It's all about her troubles but also if you listen closely, by the end, she seems to love herself even more. It was her transformational era. Forever one of my favorite artists of all time. God bless her always. One year later & this song still hits as the first time I heard it. I can never get sick of her.

she doesn't even have to try, she's just so effortlessly talented.

5:48 Adele's voice is so powerful and her microphone couldn't handle it

This song is the second best she's ever sung and wrote.

This is the only song, THE SONG, the song that makes me cry.... everytime i hear it, no matter the circumstances.

LYRICS [Verse 1] I build a house for love to grow I was so young it was hard to know I'm as lost now as I was back then Always making me solve everything It's about time that I face myself All I do is bleed into someone else Painting walls with all my secret tears Filling rooms with all my hopes and feelings [Pre-Chorus] But oh my, oh my I'll never learn if I never leap I'll always yearn if I never speak [Chorus] To be loved and love at the highest count Means to lose all the things I can't live without Let it be known that I will choose to lose It's a sacrifice but I can't live a lie Let it be known, let it be known that I tried [Verse 2] I'm so afraid but I'm open wide I'll be the one to catch myself this time Trying to learn to lean in to it all Ain't it funny how the mighty fall? Looking back I don't regret a thing Yeah, I took some bad turns that I am owning I'll stand still and let the storm pass by Keep my heart safe 'til the time feels right

There is something so special about 30. She mentioned in an interview that 21 became so big that it essentially became an album for us, her audience. But she then explained 30 is hers - it’s what’s she’s poured her heart into while she was in isolation and would come back to frequently like a friend. 30 isn’t like the other albums. It’s her most personal one yet, and it’s as though she’s taking her most personal stories, her biggest insecurities, and sharing it with us in raw fashion. It’s a masterpiece and so incredibly powerful.

Am I the only one who cried listening to and watching her 😭nothing as beautiful as a song sung with emotion and nobody does it better than Adele ❤️

the world still isn't ready for this masterpiece. only Adele could create such perfection. Hopefully one day she'll perform it live for us

"If everyone's making music for the TikTok, who's making the music for my generation? Who's making the music for my peers? I will do that job gladly" - Adele - Thanks so much, Adele. From the bottom of millennials hearts!

She's literally perfect

This is one of the most sincere and honest songs I’ve ever heard

How adele has managed to be become a even better vocalist at 33 is beyond me

I love how casual she was at the end “there were a couple notes” like she didn’t just serve a plate full of runs, insane notes and great lyrics. Iconic

I KNOW I'M GONNA CRY

This. This is why she’s has all of her awards.

VOCALS!!! OMFG!

Ughhhh that voice just wrecks my heart 💛

she's always been a great singer but I think her vocal technique has improved tremendously. You can really tell that she's working hard on her craft and cares about the art she puts out.

her voice just did something to my soul... like she created so many feelings and thoughts i've never had... truly the voice of angel!!!

lyrics: I built a house for love to grow I was so young that it was hard to know I'm as lost now as I was back then Always make a mess of everything It's about time that I face myself All I do is bleed into someone else Painting walls with all my secret tears Filling rooms with all my hopes and fears But oh my, oh my I'll never learn if I never leap I'll always yearn if I never speak To be loved and love at the highest count Means to lose all the things I can't live without Let it be known that I will choose to lose It's a sacrifice but I can't live a lie Let it be known, let it be known that I tried I'm so afraid but I'm open wide I'll be the one to catch myself this time Trying to learn to lean in to it all Ain't it funny how the mighty fall?

popular opinion: adele is one of the most talented artists of all time and never disappoints.

I would be perfectly satisfied to hear her sing this entire album with her sitting on the couch in her sweats. Her voice doesn't require any auto tuning, instruments, back up singers or an elaborate stage. She is just phenomenal!!!!

love love love...what i love about adele is that she not afraid to show the world her feelings. she sings from her heart and it touches everyone who loves her. the entire 30's albumn is breathtaking.

Greatest female singer of our generation

I love how she finishes like she wasn't doing anything. Absolutely wonderful.

The fact that she’s in cozy clothing, in her house, recording with a laptop, and having that audio, makes this so much more raw and emotional. I am so obsessed oh my god.

Her voice was so powerful that she nearly killed the mic

Such an underrated song! Should have been number 1 all around the world !

The talent you exude is astonishing

the way that she just casually sang this while chilling on the couch?? like whattttt? how is this is even possible. her voice never fails to bring me to tears, its so powerful and soulful and raw. i literally have no words, i seriously hope i get to hear her perform live one day. oh my word, this woman is so talented. easily the best vocalist of our generation.

If this song was a conversation: “we love one another and our intentions were true, they were so true then but now, neither of us are thriving in this relationship. Yes, we can both settle but in the end we suffer because it isn’t authentic anymore. Your all I know and I’m scared but I have to leave; I’m sorry. Forgive me.

Grammy song for sure. I cried all the way through it because this song is exactly how I feel after an 18 year relationship was completely shattered and broke down during 2021 lockdowns. Alone again. Love you Adele, thank you beautiful.

No auto tune, no editing just pure talent and emotion. She’s just so amazing

No camera or microphone can pick up the purity and natural talent you have. I have no words. It would be so amazing to hear this song live BUT totally understandable for you to not ever do it live cause those notes you hit is extremely high. Adele thank you for giving us what you give. Can’t wait to see you in Vegas Friday! My dreams are coming true 🥰

Adele, OMG!! I am crying 😢 😭 after watching you sing your soul out. That was so beautiful, genuine, and the most human. I have ever seen someone sing. Girl, this song is definitely coming from a place of brokenness and vulnerability. Thank you for sharing this sacred space with your fans. It was an honor to watch and hear. You are a light and blessing to those around you. Know you are enough, and someone will come along who see the real you and cherish your whole heart ❤ . That is my prayer for you. Even in the brokenness, there's beauty. But don't forget to give yourself grace and allow the healing process to happen. You give people hope when they don't have any. Because they get to see the real you. No mask. Just you.That takes courage to do that and vulnerability. So thank you for all that you bless this world with. 🌎 ❤ Know you are always in my thoughts and prayers. If you ever need to talk and be real. I am here!! That is what you do for a living. I get to hold scared spaces with people. I am a chaplain and Reverend. It's the greatest honor to allow the vulnerability and healing process to happen and walk that road with someone. Know that I see you. And you are worthy of love, trust, and to be cherished in this world. With much love, gratitude, and respect, Christy!!💛💛💛💛😊

Whoever you’re singing to, it’s all of us.

I love how this is just filmed in her living room. It’s like a throwback to how this all started with her MySpace demos

"I'll always yearn if I never speak." I believe she said she may never perform this song in person (apple music interview), so this video is a gift - especially for a song like this. This album is amazing, and Vegas was brilliantly and beautifully done.

I still come back to the video. I remember watching it live and having chills. Then Adele took me out how her mood changed so quickly and the there were a couple notes… I was like baby I’m over here balling my eyes out what you mean😅

This lady right here, she makes me feel depressed and missing people who I never met. She describes the motion of life in a way I could never, and even though she sings such saddened melodies, her voice feels like therapy.

"Let it be known that I tried." What an incredibly well written song.

Literally. This song just leaves me speechless. Adele’s voice…there is no other voice on this planet like hers. Just absolute perfection

Só é ruim pq acaba!!! Bom demais, já voltei pra ver várias vezes!!

To be honest, I like this more than the lyric version. Her voice is so natural without anything that needs to be better. I'm proud of you adele coming back stronger!

"There were a couple notes, but..." no ma'am there were NO notes! That was 100% perfection. An absolutely gorgeous song

THE END!!!! Such raw talent. Truly blown away

The 1st time I heard this i broke down on my floor. Going thru a divorce is unexplainable pain. I also left and could never put into words this straight and simple. This is how I felt and I got goosebumps knowing that I understand her pain. God bless you, Adele! You will never know how this helped me heal. I tried! Let it be known I TRIED!

That has to go down in history as THE greatest live vocal EVER uploaded on to RU-vid. Absolutely, perfectly, wonderfully performed, and just sat on her couch and with only the echo of the room. This woman is Britain’s and indeed one of the worlds greatest recording artist ever. I am in totally admiration and respect for this lady. Love ya Adele 😘😘😘

What a beautiful song. Beautiful voice. Literally touched my soul. She sang this from such a deep place within herself.

Keep coming back to this.

OH HEAVENS, SHE IS SO PERFECT 😭

Imagine being Adele's neighbor and you hear THIS!!

Wow...just....wow! Adele is an amazing singer. Such raw emotion. What a beautiful performance!

I started listening to her at 13 when Chasing Pavements came out and now I'm 25. I was lucky enough to see her in concert in 2016 and it was honestly the best night of my life.

Outside of Whitney, she is the ONLY other singer that can MESMERIZE me. She is one of the MOST soulful non-black singers ever, in my opinion. Soul cannot be taught. It is a feeling. It is a gift. Either you have it or YOU DON'T. 20,000 of those views are mine!! 😂😂What a TREAT!! 🥵🙌🏾

Hasta brinqué de la emoción, aaAaAaa 💛

Adele en su más pura esencia. No necesita nada más... Excelente ❤

Chorei, talento. Quase explode o microfone ✨ brilha mt Adele

I just…ugh. Her previous albums were all amazing. But something about 30 is SO much more mature. She learned how to express her suffering perfectly, and it rings within all of us. She isn’t the woman she once was in her previous albums. She’s come so far! We love you Adele! Thank you for creating music that a mother in her mid 30s can relate to.

This woman was simply born to sing, belonging to a very exclusive club. There aren't many people that can say that they don't need auto tuning, background singers or lip syncing w/ a secret singer to sound good, they were simply born to sing. Thank you Adele! Thank you for gracing and gifting us with your beautiful voice and songs that truly touch us.

Essa música invade a minha alma de um jeito surreal 💛 obrigado, Adele

I absolutely love your voice!! This house was not ready for your powerful voice! My wedding song was “To make you feel my love”. 7 years later, I would do anything to see you live ❤ My forever dream 🥰 Love you Adele 😊

“All I do is bleed… into someone else.” Most relatable thing ever

There's something so personal about 30 that I think it just makes us feel part of everything she's feeling in every song. I don't mean that the other albums didn't make me feel that way, but this just touches a very deep fiber in all of us. Acceptance, suffering, the feeling of letting go, the fear, the anxiety, every emotion comes together in such a profund way that each lyric elevates me from my reality and places me in her self. You're a blessing to this world, Adele.

I have no words… only tears.

I'm so grateful but sad this is the only version we get of this. I hope she finds the strength to sing us this beautiful song live one day ❤❤❤

Insane how she just recorded it on a laptop like everyone making a zoom meeting but still managed to deliver the impeccable vocal and emotion

Bittersweet that this is likely the only live performance we’ll ever get from her. She’s said it’s just too emotional for her to sing it live.

It is just beautiful how the true talent can bright this way in a living room and take your heart. Simply beautiful

Essa música me marca profundidade. A voz, a letra e a pessoa que me tocava 😢❤

I love how she makes singing looks so easy, despite the reality. Her vocals are insane 😭❤❤

RELEASE IT AS A SINGLE PLEASE RIGHT NOW

I still come back to this every once in a while, absolute comfort video on YT

It’s so sad that this is the only live will ever get to see from this song.

🐐 No studio needed, no mic, just sheer talent. She's on a short list.

This song will never not make me break down crying and singing my heart out. “Let it be known that I tried.” This song is just perfect. Thank you Adele. You’re music has been helping me a lot lately. Depression, abandonment, and everything going on with the world. Thank you.

No words to describe the raw emotion and beauty of this performance of this song.

“Let it be known that I tried” - that line cuts deep 💔

The way that Adele casually says “there were a couple of notes but” as if she ain’t just made us weep rivers 😭 😭😭

To me is the best song of the album. I've connected with this song more than others to the album, I love you Adele.
