I can’t even talk about how much this song touched me when I first heard it.

(Hint: sobbing mess).

And now Paris as backdrop!

Now I’m just happy to have all this beauty in one place: that voice! those words! this city!

Oh god, I know. I feel like I’ve actually shot this video myself a hundred times walking back and forth over those bridges, blasting that song in my headphones.

So beautiful.

Wow! So poignant! A beautiful song with a beautiful location, for sure. The romantic in me was definitely touched.

Okay, the slightly pragmatic in me was really wondering, “When on earth could they have filmed with absolutely no one present on the Pont Alexandre III?!?” LOL. My guess is about 6 am, in the summertime, when everyone was on vacation. Other guesses?

Adele is amazing…

  I had the same thought! I think you’re right. Definitely the summer, since you can see the Tuileries’ Ferris wheel in the background. Although she looks much colder than she should

Heehee. Y’all make me laugh.

I bet Adele has enough star power to clear off the bridge any old time she wants to.

As for it speaking to the romantic in me. If by romantic you mean, I so understand this broken heart but moving on trying to be a good person constantly evolving thing – then yeah

At first I thought maybe it was shot on a green screen but after a while I changed my mind. One of my favorites from Adele!

  Yep, I think it’s a real. And yep, a fave of mine, too! (Obviously!)

I love that sad song. I think we all can relate to it with someone we have experienced in life. Things as they say happen for a reason, they end for some reason, good or bad. I hope all is well with you in your beautiful city, living them dream many of us have.

  You’re so nice to me, Paul. Thanks
  
  Also, I never used this many exclamation points before I started blogging. Can’t! Contain! Enthusiasm!
