Yes, there is no denying Adele's emotional connection to her songs. Carrie's range is just crazy though. She goes from high to low and in-between and I just can't keep up, haha. I've always loved singing along to the great singers though. When I was 14, it was all Celine and Mariah and Martina and in college it was Sarah McLachlan. For the last almost 11 years, it's been Carrie! I don't think anyone will ever top her for me. Perhaps it's because we are so close in age and life milestones that I can relate to her like no other singer before, or perhaps it's because we Carrie fans feel "ownership" because of voting for her on Idol, but she (and this website, haha) have just captivated my attention. I am three years older than Carrie, but our birthdays are one day apart. We both got married at 27 years old after dating our hubbies for about a year and a half, and had our babies at age 32. The only difference is she is gorgeous and an amazing singer, haha.
