Adele's biggest singles announce themselves the moment her voice enters, from the piano of 'Someone Like You' to the bluesy stomp of 'Rolling in the Deep'. These are the songs that put easy points on the board.
Beyond the ballads sit the questions that decide a close round: a Bond theme that won an Oscar, a million downloads in a single week, and a Bob Dylan cover quietly hiding on her debut album.
Everyone can name the singer; the question is the song and the era. Sort the piano ballads, the album-by-age placements, the up-tempo exceptions and the covers, and prove how deep your ear really goes.
Start here for the easy points. 'Someone Like You', 'Rolling in the Deep', 'Set Fire to the Rain', 'Hello' and 'Easy on Me' are the songs almost everyone names from the first line, and Adele's voice confirms it instantly. In any Adele quiz these are the openers that get you on the board.
This is where an Adele quiz sharpens. Because every album is named for her age and shares the same piano-and-strings palette, the skill is placing a ballad to the right one: 'Chasing Pavements' belongs to 19, 'Someone Like You' to 21, 'When We Were Young' to 25 and 'Easy on Me' to 30. Same singer, same mood, four different eras.
Adele is typecast as a balladeer, so the up-tempo tracks are where superfans pull ahead. 'Rumour Has It' stomps, 'Send My Love (To Your New Lover)' is a Max Martin acoustic-pop bounce, and 'Oh My God' and 'Water Under the Bridge' pick up the pace. Guessing these from a short clip catches out anyone expecting only slow songs.
The trickiest questions sit at the edges of the catalog. 'Make You Feel My Love' is a Bob Dylan cover that many assume Adele wrote, 21 closes with a live cover of The Cure's 'Lovesong', and 'Skyfall' is her orchestral James Bond theme. Know these and you are in the top tier of any Adele guess-the-song round.

Because her songs share one mood. 'Someone Like You', 'All I Ask' and 'Easy on Me' are all piano ballads, so the challenge is placing each to the right album rather than just naming the singer.
'Rolling in the Deep', 'Someone Like You', 'Hello', 'Set Fire to the Rain' and 'Easy on Me' are the most-guessed, with 'Skyfall' and 'Make You Feel My Love' as the classic curveballs.
Yes, and they trip people up. 'Rumour Has It', 'Send My Love (To Your New Lover)' and 'Oh My God' break the ballad pattern, so do not assume every Adele clip will be slow.
