Adele isn't really one to take risks though. Remember how she made a big deal out of all the dance she had to do for the Send My Love video?? And then we got the video and... lol.
I'm excited either way. Even a Hello Pt. 2 is still gonna be one of my faves of the year.

Maybe it'll be like No Tears Left To Cry, where we will be baited with a ballad in the beginning but then it turns into a pop song

That piano line is way more reminiscent of All I Ask than Hello.

Yeah, I feel like if it's going to be a Hello, Part 2, it will be polarizing for a minute when it comes out, but then everyone will get into their cuffing season feels and be all about it.

With no vocals in the snippet it’s really hard to tell/assume that this is just another Hello. I bet she delivers as always.

Who knows if it'll be a ballad or not. The song could switch up to something upbeat after the intro or a piano ballad but it's Adele.

I’m just so happy she’s back.
Take notes Rihanna. Kidding (kind of).

That snippet reminds me of Keane. Not a negative though.

I'm excited for this on a personal level. It's starting to feel like 2015 all over again and I'm having this deja vu. When she released "Hello", I started preparing for my US trip shortly after. And this time around, I'm kinda expecting another work assignment halfway across (my part of) the globe.

This reminds me a lot of Someone Like You and I can't wait! I got Excile vibes too at first. Other than the fact it is a piano, I don't hear any similarities to Hello

I think most of saying Hello because of the piano. I think it's way to little to tell at this point.

The clip reminds me more of "Someone Like You" or "All I Ask" than "Hello".

Girl please @ merging a rumor thread made over two years ago for a song thread. It’s lowkey giving misuse of staff powers.

Was creating the thread that important to you? Like... Misuse of staff powers for merging a thread. Please. Calling out some random messy logic that makes little sense /=/ being “butt hurt”. I couldn’t find the thread then saw it was under a post from 2019… when this song likely wasn’t even created yet. Absolutely no ties to the announcement of this song. It’s like using a 2017 post as the OP for Rihanna’s next lead single or something. Makes relatively no sense. And I’m not sure how you’re gonna use the “is having the thread that important?” attitude with me when I am NOT the one who dug up a post from multiple years ago to be able claim OP. But you are a professional kiss ass so I get the point of your post was to show your instinctive teacher’s pet tendencies rather than objectively analyzing the simple flawed logic pointed out.

Digital sales are dead but I really think Adele is gonna be able to pull at least 300k in digital sales first week Whatever amount of sales she can pull, at least those sales will be totally organic. Not like others with their massive buying.

Digital sales are dead but I really think Adele is gonna be able to pull at least 300k in digital sales first week I'm assuming the album will go up for pre-order concurrently - seem like the logical move so the label can get a quick gauge on the album's demand. It'll matter because the label may have to force more marketing dollars to streaming playlists. I'd imagine a significant portion of the digital-buying crowd would want the album and not just the single. If so, won't that cut into the sales? No clue what rules Billboard is applying to instagrats for H100 now.

Not gonna lie, was hoping she'd go a little leftfield with the first single. But I'm excited either way. same. I hope it's like a "No Tears Left To Cry" type snippet/intro to throw us off. kind of want her to pick it up, pick it up, love and live and pick it up. otherwise this looks way too similar to "Hello," and I don't know if I want that.

Don't know her. Shakira's hips be lying. Adele outdanced.
