Adele - Hello (Vevo Record)

[Smithy]

YQHsXMglC9A

[Ammi]

..she looks fabulous/she sounds fabulous and I love that she's gone for black and white with her vid...hello Adele...

[Pete.]

Welp at the chorus - so powerful :flutter:

And the video, who knew :clap1:

[Smithy]

Ngl I'm a bit underwhelmed, I thought she'd come back really strong with something as big as SFTTR, it's still a better lead than Rolling in the Deep tho, imo anyway

[Shaun]

:flutter:

and RITD >>>>>>>>>>>>>> SFTTR

[Samuel.]

Hmmm. I loved the bit from the advert, but the chorus doesn't do it for me. Was hoping for something more sombre.

[Tom4784]

Amazing.

[EspeonBB]

I like it. The chorus is amazing and makes up for the verses being lacklustre. It's not as good as RITD but I wasn't expecting anything as good as that

[Jords]

Amazing. I love the chorus.

[Liam-]

The Queen is back

[Locke.]

It's pretty good, just a shame the album is getting pushed back a little bit further

[Iceman]

Absolutely fantastic. :love:

[Natalie.]

I love the song and the video :flutter:
Is that the man from 90210 in the video?

[Iceman]

I absolutely cannot wait for a live version of this.

[MB.]

:clap1:

[Jordan.]

I like it

[Crimson Dynamo]

Good promo for Reggie Yates

[King Gizzard]

Meh

Thought that was Reggie Yates in the video for a sec

[King Gizzard]

oh

[Crimson Dynamo]

the song is pretty amazeballs however

:love:

[Iceman]

Apparently it's also the first music video to use IMAX cameras. Good to know.

[MB.]

Oh yeah that made all the difference

[Kizzy]

I love it and she's stunning, nice to see her with her hair down :)

[Loukas]

i really like it :clap1:

[Xtopher]

I love it. Been singing that chorus in my head for the past hour.

[Jordan.]

The chorus leaves me bald

[Denver]

All the other top stars are Crapping themselves now as ever Adele delivers a phenominal vocal and powerful ballad cant wait for this to destroy all competition its and #1 on itunes in almost every country

[Xtopher]

Good thing I wasn't the only one.

To tell you I'm sorry, for everything that I've done
But when I call you never seem to be home

She's well and truly back. I had goosebumps all through, what an amazing song. Think this will be on repeat!

[Marsh.]

The snippet was dull. But the song as a whole is gorgeous. :flutter:

One of the best choruses she's done.

Her lead in the UK is insane:

1 Adele - Hello 1.0000
2 Justin Bieber - Sorry 0.2393

So Bieber is selling ~24% of what Adele is. http://popfn.com/images/smilies/rip_zpsec10ede9.gif

It's a good song so well done to her.

Plus it's not another Dance track.:dance:

[EspeonBB]

I'm not mad she broke Taylor's record :clap1: I found the Bad Blood video overrated anyway (should have been Blank Space which held the record :suspect:)

At least Taylor has records for Adele to break I guess :hee:

[Iceman]

Yeah the first week sales for an album by a woman is up for grabs.

I think she can do it. Britney holds the current record but 1989 came extremely close to breaking it last year and Adele has more hype than Taylor did

Taylor is doing just fine. She's earning $1 million per day and is currently on a sold out stadium tour. Ya'll should worry about your faves instead.

Just to play devils advocate, I'd imagine if the song had premiered prior to the video and the video was released a couple of weeks after I don't think the video would have broken the record :think:

that ITV clip was a lil bit of promo to get people excited for it, then we found out when it will be released and all that stuff :p so it did have a lil bit of promo but not much. But if she did a beyonce then she would still sell well.

Vevo certified!

[EspeonBB]

I think she broke the record for fastest video to be Vevo certified (it was Wrecking Ball by Miley before)

Also:
http://hitsdailydouble.com/news&id=298224

Following this series of calculated moves, the album immediately shot to #1 in country after country, while the single will sell north of 1m in its first week, obliterating the previous record.

The plan is for the LP to own physical retail from release date through the end of the holidays; hence, it will be everywhere from supermarkets to truck stops, including a major, major initiative from Target, its centerpiece a deluxe exclusive version of 25 with three bonus tracks. If the overall plan is carried out properly, Adele CDs will be stacked so high at the cash registers that shoppers will be tripping over them. Clearly, the initial order will need to be massive in order to blanket retail. Some handicappers believe 25 will debut with 1.5-1.7m, eclipsing the 1.3m first week of Swift’s 1989, though not approaching the record of 2.4m set by NSYNC’s No Strings Attached back in 2000.


Oops is definitely having it's record snatched
