Adele’s ‘Hello’ Is Emotional, Heartbreaking And Will Leave You Drowning In Tears

After years and years, Adele has released her brand new single, “Hello,” and it was well worth the wait.

The singer dropped the first track off her upcoming album,

(November 20), along with the video on Friday and delivered to us a highly emotional ballad that you may want to listen to with a box of tissues close by because it may cause a waterfall of tears.

While some may have worried when she said she was ditching her break-up songs for “make-up songs”, you can breathe a sigh of relief because “Hello” is still just as heartbreaking.

“Hello from the other side / I must’ve called a thousand times to tell you / I’m sorry, for everything that I’ve done,” she sings.

Adele’s Album Is Coming — Here’s Everything We Know About It

Adele’s signature voice gradually builds over the track, which was produced by Greg Kurstin, as it starts with just a smooth, slow piano and drum beat, but then explodes later in the song as she incorporates an orchestra type sound. But it’s those lyrics that are so hauntingly beautiful that you feel Adele’s pain through every word and it will no doubt have the same effect on you as any of her breakup songs, as it’s equally as relatable and emotional.

The British singer also dropped the video for the song, which plays off perfectly with the lyrics. She travels back to the house she shared with her ex as she tries tirelessly to get in touch with him to apologize “for everything that I did,” but just like she sings on the song, he doesn’t respond because it doesn’t “tear you apart anymore.”

Adele spoke out about the track, and her upcoming album, to Apple Music’s Beats 1’s Zane Lowe Friday, saying that this may be the last time she titles an album with her age.

“I think this will be my last age one,” she said of

“I’m sure I’m wrong with this, but I feel like there’s been a massive change in me in the last couple of years. Having become a parent, and me and all my friends suddenly living grown-up lives and having responsibilities we haven’t had before.”

In her time away from the spotlight, Adele had her 2 year-old son, Angelo, and feels at this point in her life “not that much is going to change profoundly in me.”

“I think the next one is probably going to be called Adele. The real me,” she joked before adding, “I’m just kidding.”
