Adele in 2021
Adele in 2021

"I Drink Wine" is a song by English singer Adele from her fourth studio album 30 (2021). Adele co-wrote the song with its producer Greg Kurstin. It became available as the album's seventh track on 19 November 2021, when it was released by Columbia Records. "I Drink Wine" is a ballad with gospel influences which is reminiscent of church music and incorporates a piano and an organ in its instrumentation. The song is about letting go of one's ego and addresses Adele's divorce with Simon Konecki, comprising arduous realisations about the condition of her marriage and life. "I Drink Wine" received generally positive reviews from music critics, some of whom viewed it as one of Adele's best songs and a career highlight. It reached the top 10 in the United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, Sweden, and entered the charts in various other countries. Adele performed "I Drink Wine" for her television specials, and at the Brit Awards 2022 which was positively received. (Full article...)

  • Most recent similar article(s): "Streets" (song), although these songs are pretty different in terms of genre and artist
  • Main editors: MaranoFan
  • Promoted: 18 September 2022
  • Reasons for nomination: One-year anniversary of 30 and the date "I Drink Wine" became largely available!
  • Support as nominator. NØ 04:12, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Congratulations on the recent FAC promotion. This would be a little under a month after the "Streets" TFA so that should not a big issue. A one-year anniversary is interesting imo as I do not believe most song FAs are that recent when they get promoted. Aoba47 (talk) 18:15, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose it was only promoted 5 days ago, a bit early if you ask me. Great Mercian (talk) 17:15, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
What exactly is supposed to change if we wait longer? The TFA criteria (displayed at the top of this very page, actually) mentions no specific waiting period after promotion. Doesn't seem like there's any weight to this random argument.--NØ 17:23, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Fine, I change it to Weak Oppose, happy now? Great Mercian (talk) 17:28, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No different argument offered with regard to the TFA criteria so my feelings about the useless vote remain the same.--NØ 17:30, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support the parent album's one-year anniversary is a very fitting time for this to be featured on the main page. As far as I can tell, there's no wait requirements for having a TFA after something gets promoted to FA and Wikipedians can choose any future date that isn't already taken up by something else, so Great Mercian's oppose feels completely unfair.
