The only problem I have is that chasing pavements and cold shoulder sound pretty distorted at some parts and have some problems with the sssss. The album earned Adele seven Grammys. In February 2012, she won the Grammy Awards for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album for 21, Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Short Form Music Video for "Rolling in the Deep," and Best Pop Solo Performance for "Someone like You" at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards. [222] Additionally, her producer Paul Epworth won Producer of the Year, Non-Classical. [223] Adele, who was named Best New Artist in 2009, is only the second artist and the first female in history to win all four major Grammy categories.

With the demos of two songs recorded, Adele approached American musician and OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder, who was in London at the time for a radio show. Tedder had expressed interest in collaborating with the singer after they met at the 2009 Grammy Awards ceremony in February. [18] He arrived four hours early to their first studio session, buying time to better familiarise himself with some of her previous work. [16] Although unaware of Adele's personal predicament, he composed the opening piano sequence and the first few lines of what became the lovelorn ballad " Turning Tables": "Close enough to start a war/All that I have is on the floor." [16] Coincidentally, it perfectly captured the experience of the singer, who arrived at the studio moments after another altercation with her former lover. Angry and unfocused, she denounced her ex-lover's tendency to "turn the tables" on her during their arguments, an expression that Tedder decided to reference in the song's lyrics. [18] Adele recorded the demo with Jim Abbiss the following day.
