Adele's ballads go #1, but Xtine's fall flat on the charts. Why?

That's true, Gaga copied Xtine, Kylie, Britney and Cher, people forget that and tend to focus only one Gaga copying Madge, but she copied several others and that doesn't decrease the talent she has.
Here's the rebuttal. I don't recall Gaga ever copying off Xtinelike ever.

Xtine was super blacklashed by Monsters back then and You Lost Me is too slow, it's a great song and one of the best of the album, but it's not very commercial, in the Lotus era she released radio friendly singles and sadly didn't make sucess, We Remain tanked
, i think she's being blacklisted, even when she releases radio friendly singles it doesn't suceed, it's like people dislike her so much they don't pull her song, plus she doesn't promote like she should promote, honestly i find Someone Like You overrated, it's a 7 and people act like it's a 9, but you can't deny Adele's imense talent, Set Fire To The Rain is one of the greatest ballads ever.
PS: I think she could have fared better released Lift Me Up, You Lost Me is a great song, very moving(and that makes me wonder if it's about Jordan?).

Someone Like You was the follow up single of the biggest song of 2011, plus it's chorus it's catchier, You Lost Me is clearly the better song and it would have made sucess in the late 90s/early 00s.

I don't see how these two are comparable. Someone Like You had a great melody, lyrics you could sing to and great vocals.
You lost me didn't have any of it, it wasn't very melodic, the music was bleh and while the vocals were half decent there was nothing really remarkable about them. The lyrics were also just something been there done that.
