Hype’s Now Playing: Adele – When We Were Young

Adele has done it again.

After giving us major goosebumps with “Hello“, the British singer-songwriter wowed us with yet another powerful single, “When We Were Young”.

On 17th November (Tuesday), Adele dropped this new single that she co-wrote with Tobias Jesso Jr for her upcoming album, “25”. She also performed the heartfelt song at The Church venue in London during an interview with “60 Minutes Australia”.

The song is guaranteed to give anyone goosebumps because as expected, the Grammy award-winning artiste has mesmerised us with her signature soaring vocals.

She sings:

Everybody loves the things you do/ From the way you talk/ To the way you move.

The live version of the song was uploaded to her official YouTube channel and as of time of writing, it has gathered more than 5.5 million views.

In a separate interview with broadcasting company SiriusXM, the singer talked about the inspiration behind the track.

She said:

Seeing everyone that you’ve ever fallen out with, everyone that you’ve ever loved, everyone that you’ve never loved, and stuff like that.

“And where you can’t find the time to be in each other lives and you’re all thrown together at this party when you’re like 50, and it doesn’t matter and you have so much fun and you feel like you’re 15 again. So that’s the kind of vibe of it really,” she added.

“25” comes almost 5 years after she released “21″, her sophomore album which sold some 30 million copies worldwide and won 7 Grammys. It is due to released on 20th November via Columbia in the US.
