Video: Subway Performer Sings Adele's "Someone Like You"... Nails It

One of this season's greatest Saturday Night Live sketches was when they paid notice Adele's "Someone Like You," and its ability to make everyone cry (video). So naturally, when this subway performer at 86th Street beautifully belted out the tune, it got a lot of attention. He even tells the crowd afterwards: "I tell you, if you ever see someone do that song and they don't drop a tear, don't give 'em shit, don't give 'em nothin', because that song is nothin' but love." Watch below, and make sure you've got a Kleenex handy.
