Adele's 'Hello': Singer debuts first single in 3 years
- 9 years ago
London British singer Adele released her first new single in three years on Friday - a powerful, slow-paced torch song that sent fans into raptures on social media.
"Hello," her first release since the Oscar-winning James Bond theme "Skyfall," is vintage Adele - a huge, emotional ballad directed at a lost lover.
The single, along with a moody, sepia-toned video , soon had the London-born singer's name trending worldwide on Twitter - with fans gushing about the new track.
In a personal statement posted Wednesday on her official social media accounts, Adele hinted that her long-awaited third album, titled "25," will explore her journey to adulthood and self-acceptance.
Adele has kept a low profile since then, giving birth to a son with businessman Simon Konecki in 2012 and resurfacing for occasional projects such as the theme song to the James Bond movie "Skyfall" , which won her and Paul Epworth an Oscar.
