Adele Covers “If It Hadn’t Been For Love” Co-Written By CMA Winner Chris Stapleton [VIDEO]
I don't know about you all, but I'm not quite over my Chris Stapleton hangover yet. I know a lot of people were saying during and after the CMA Awards, "who the heck is this guy?" And something I didn't know was that Stapleton used to be part of a bluegrass group called The SteelDrivers, a group that has performed at ROMP. Who knew? Here's a clip, man that voice!
Now when you pull this clip up on YouTube, it has this long description with "that Adele covered..." Yes, Adele covered "If It Hadn't Been For Love" for her Royal Albert Hall live concert album/video. Stapleton wrote the song with fellow Steeldriver Mike Henderson. She's actually covered it in concert a couple times, here's her cover from the 2011 iTunes Festival. The set-up is fantastic.
Two incredible voices, but whose was better?
