Cliff Richard admits to fears over falling onstage<\/h3>\n

Cliff Richard has taken a swipe at Adele, just days after fat-shaming Elvis Presley during an appearance on This Morning.<\/p>\n

The 83-year-old threw some shade at Adele by saying he preferred Aretha Franklin’s version of Rolling In The Deep, which she released in 2014.<\/p>\n

He said: “Aretha had made it her own. She unleashed that incredible octave range on Rolling in the Deep and completely reimagined it. Aretha’s singing style is totally different from Adele’s.<\/p>\n

“I guess I shouldn’t say that her version is better than the original, but what I can safely say is that I enjoy it more, due to a couple of beautiful high notes Aretha threw in.<\/p>\n

“Let’s face it, her voice has forever struck a chord deep inside of me. It always will. I’d like to sing Rolling in the Deep one day, I think it’s a great rock and roll song.”<\/p>\n

The songwriter said he would like to record the song in Nashville, keeping the original melody but changing the arrangement to suit his own voice.<\/p>\n

Continuing to share his opinions on Adele, 35, he expressed: “I first heard Adele, like everybody else, when her debut album, 19, was hitting Number One and breaking sales records in 2008. I quite liked it without thinking thinking it was extraordinary.”<\/p>\n

“It’s one of those instances where I can see that somebody is very good, and talented, but at the same time, I’m not a fan.<\/p>\n

“I’ll never deny that Adele has a good voice. I’ve never heard her sing a bum note.”<\/p>\n
