Adele Opens Up, I Don't Have Time To Fall Apart Like I Did Before I settled Down

Award winning Singer and mother of one Adele has opened up on her career. Her 2011 album 21 earned her critical acclaim, worldwide success and she became the best-selling album of the 21st century.

Adele revealed that she doesn't expect to ever achieve the same level of songwriting with her future work, as she was 'off her face' drunk during the production. 

She disclosed this while speaking to Vanity Fair, the 28-year-old songstress revealed: 'I can see from an outsider’s perspective that I will never write songs as good as the ones that are on 21, but I’m not as indulgent as I was then, and I don’t have time to fall apart like I did then.

She continued: 'I was completely off my face writing that album, and a drunk tongue is an honest one. I would drink two bottles of wine, and I would chain-smoke. 

'Then I’d write the lyrics down and the next morning think, "F**k, that’s quite good." Then I’d find the melody.'

However, she explained her days of heavy drinking came to an abrupt end following the birth of her son Angelo in 2012, which is why she believes she may not match her previous success.
