Stop making fun of me! […] This is my fifth show, and five is my lucky number. So even though it’s pouring with rain, this is actually the most fun I’m having out of all the shows so far.”Elsewhere in the set, Adele joked (via Billboard): “If it stops raining when I do ‘Set Fire To The Rain’, I’m going to be fucking furious.”Fans have since said that the elements added extra drama and a “magical” edge to Adele’s live performance. “Adele singing ‘Skyfall’ while the rain is pouring so hard – THIS IS CINEMA,” one person wrote.Check out a selection of posts below.Adele had to wear sneakers to tonight’s concert due to the heavy rain in Munich.
