According to JMG, who got it from Billboard, Adele's tear-jerker Someone Like You is the first purely vocal and piano single to reach #1 in the 53 year history of Billboard's pop singles chart. Many similarly sparse ballads also reached #1, but according to Billboard, all had other minor accompaniment.
Well of course it's go Number 1.
It's freakin' Adele.
PS Forgive the commercial.

This song is SO beautiful. Have you heard this cover? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAHyGbOXoF4&feature=player_embedded It might even be better than the original!
I love this to sing this song!
I feel like a Cathy comic when I hear her. But I love her though
She's got an incredible voice, and she seems absolutely charming in interviews. I'm sold on her.
