^What was the gap between announcement and album-release, though? 4 weeks. She announced the album release date (November 20) on October 23, the same day she released Hello. She released 25 the week before Black Friday (HDD claimed at the time that "Team Adele wants nothing to do with the s**t show that ensues on Black Friday"). Plus Target announce that year that it wouldn't be supporting any Black Friday album releases, so it essentially made a BF release undoable anyway. I think it only takes two weeks to get a new CD to retail (that is assuming one waits until the last possible moment to get copies pressed), so there's technically still time to get something out by the week before BF, or even week of if her team isn't averse to a BF release anymore. But it seems unlikely at this point that a November album is happening, as I doubt she would do a true 'surprise' drop, or release without a single out at least two weeks beforehand. If she doesn't make an announcement by this Friday, I'm going to assume November is entirely out of the question.It's Wednesday, and I've thrown November out the window. Surely there would have been SOME kind of SOMETHING by this point. She wanted a Christmas release for the album. I'm guessing then that she truly meant Christmas. If the album isn't out by December 20 (and if we're talking the two-week theory, a single out by December 6), then early 2020 it is.

It's getting to the point where I am not sure music is coming anytime soon. Possibly mid to late next year. I hope I am wrong.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's Mariah or honestly even Kelly since Kelly is NBC's girl.

I don’t care about SNL or a holiday song reaching a new peak. I want this new Adele music now.

I'd love to have a new Adele album this year, but I'm guessing they will take the Spring release route now. A mistake imo, Adele and Fall/Winter belong together.

19 was US released in June 2008 and 21 was out February 2011 so I don't really know why people would associate Adele with Fall/Winter other than 25's release

Maybe in the US album sales peaked for 21 in the spring/summer, but Someone like You and Set Fire to the Rain both smashed over fall and winter. Hello was also a fall/winter smash, WWWY was winter, and WUTB was fall. Not to mention RITD swept the awards season, which is also winter. The iconic Grammys performance of it was winter. So even though it was a spring/summer hit, there's plenty of reason for it to also be connected to fall and summer. Hell, even Chasing Pavements was released in January.
So that really only leaves Send Your Love and Rumour Has It, which aren't her most memorable hits.
Not that she wouldn't do well at any other time of year, but it's understandable why Adele might be associated with fall and winter for many.

If 1Q is the new 4Q, I could see her releasing after the year turns over. Nab that Grammy's slot to boost their ratings, etc.
Also, I hope she waits so Mariah can possibly snag a Hot 100 #1.

Surprised this isn’t being released in November, considering a large portion of her fan base still buys CDs

Well I guess 2020 is the year...I'd think there would have to have been a lead single announcement or tease by now if the album was to be out by Christmas.

Every time I see one of the newer pictures of Adele I have to re-process the fact that she lost such a massive amount of weight seemingly overnight. Really proud of her!
She looks like someone else in that first picture but I can't place who. Stunning as always either way.
Bring on this new album in 2020, queen! We know you've got it ready!

She looks great except for the Oprah problem- her heads too big for her body. But I’m so excited! Hopefully we’ll get more pussy popping anthems like I Miss You.
