I was expecting her to do a kick ass killers cover . This was great though.

Oh my god, that E(flat)5 is EVERYTHING, I never thought she was capable of that. Wow I'm in shock. I'm so glad her voice is expanding

This is the song that got picked out for a second listen during her Guardian interview: http://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/nov/15/adele-25-new-album-interview

The song has an irresistible ambiguity to it, mournful as well as hopeful, exactly the combo that made Someone Like You so special. When she played the track the first time, she seemed especially anxious about it, reaching to make minute adjustments to the volume, then planting her fingers in her mouth to massacre the glue-on acrylics. Second time around, she keeps her eyes shut, nodding gently.

This is the one, then – the Hit Expectant. I can’t help thinking Adele has smashed it, as she’d hoped. The song just has that feel – a standard in the making, only waiting to become a part of the fabric of the coming years, chosen again and again on karaoke machines, picked out for people to get married to and buried to, centrepiece of an album that seems sure (however much she flaps her hand and demurs) to rattle the world the way 21 did.

I'm really looking forward to Friday.

I very rarely get excited for albums, but God damn am I excited for her next one. This and Hello have both been stunning, even by Adeles standards.

Based on their titles, I'm predicting the next two big singles on the new album will be this and "I Miss You".
