WORDS: CHRISTABEL SMITH.
Whether they’re our childhood heroines, jazzy legends, ballad-boomers or pop princesses, all are legends. Our celebration of some of Great Britain’s favourite songbirds comes with the happiest of memories – and an earworm guarantee.
ADELE

Not bad for the girl born in London’s Tottenham, who took the music world by storm when her fellow teenagers were likely still asleep in bed!
