* CriticalDissonance: While the album was always loved by critics, audiences weren't as kind, selling only a little over a million copies and polarizing listeners. In comparison, Music/MellonCollieAndTheInfiniteSadness sold over 5 million and was certified Diamond (10,000,000 units sold, each disc is counted as a separate unit).

*** "Once Upon a Time" is especially sad because of how the lyrics are basically Corgan talking to his mom about how meaningless his life has gotten since she passed. The sound of the song is also especially whimsical, which possibly alludes to a feeling of youth..

* VindicatedByHistory: The album was regarded as a commercial flop on release (although still critically well received), but as Corgan predicted would happen to the album, its stature has improved significantly with time. A Pitchfork review that gave the album reissue an 8.5 claimed that ''Adore'' is called underrated so often that it can't possibly be true anymore.

* TearJerker: A lot of the tracks on the album, really, due to its [[DarkerAndEdgier nat]][[CreatorBreakdown ure]].
** "Annie-Dog" is a depressing listen all-around, not just due to its very minimalistic piano-led sound, but also due to Corgan's broken vocals singing about the numbed, hellish life of a prostitute ([[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation maybe]]).
** All of the songs about Corgan's mother's death. "For Martha", "Once Upon a Time", etc.
