Adele, who has battled cord problems in the past, admitted: “In the middle of last night, I’m sure you can hear it in my speaking voice and a little bit in my singing voice.” Your girl was tired. I didn’t sleep very well…
‘And Ursula of the ocean has come out of my chest tonight. I can’t play my top notes correctly. I didn’t sleep very well and my chest is burning. I can say I’m going to have a coffee in about 10 days, but I’m still here.’

Adele lasted 100 minutes on her song, often drinking honey and hot water between tunes.
Upon taking the stage, Adele seemed to feel a little better, but acknowledged her voice problems as the sold-out show ended: “My voice came back about four songs ago…
‘You’ve been amazing. The show. Thank you, thank you love, magical, magical, everything putting together from the moment. I’m very glad you had a good time. I look crazy, I feel crazy… I’m going to take vocal rest.’
Adele still has 20 shows left in Las Vegas before heading to Munich to perform in summer stadiums. Her last world tour, Adele Live, saw her cancel her final two shows at Wembley Stadium in 2017 over vocal concerns.
