Journalist: At the start of the year, you were hotly tipped. Have you lived up to the hype?

记者：年初你曾大量吸金，你认为这是铺天盖地的宣传的回报吗？

Adele: I think I have, yes. With that hype, you have to sell a lot of records, and I’ve done more than a million. But I think Duffy is the sound of 2008. She’s sold stupid amounts of records. I’m not fazed by that. I want to be making records forever; this first album isn’t the one that defines me.

阿黛尔：个人认为是的。在大肆的宣传下你必须唱片大卖，我已经售出超过一百万张。但我认为Duffy才是2008之声，她的唱片大获全胜。但我没被吓倒，我希望我永远在破纪录，仅凭第一张唱片并不能定义我。

Journalist: Does it bug you that Chasing Pavements has become the single?

记者：《一路狂追》成为唯一的一首成名曲让你很困扰吗？

Adele: Not at all. I hope that I’ve got a better song so I haven’t got to sing that at Fairfield Halls when I’m 50, but I’m very proud of it. It really defined what I was feeling at that time, when I was with that boy. I prefer Hometown Glory .

阿黛尔：一点也不，我希望我可以有一首更好的歌，这样我在50岁时不必在Fairfield Halls唱那一首，但是我仍引以为荣。那首歌真实地诠释了当我和那个男孩在一起时的感受。个人而言，我更偏爱《故乡荣光》这一首。

Journalist: Amy Winehouse and Lewis are both graduates of the Brit school, as are you. Is it like Fame Academy?

记者：和你一样，Amy Winehouse和Lewis同样毕业于Brit school。听上去那好像一所名人学院？
