Nostalgia can hit you at different stages in your life.
This question is buried deep in the rousing words, melodies, and themes featured onAdele’smasterpiece “Hello.”
1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for 10 consecutive weeks, perBillboard.
It has a haunting melody, deep lyrics, and an addictive and painfully relatable chorus.
However, the singer-songwriter countered those rumors and offered another perspective on the hit single.
“‘Hello’ is just about reconnecting with everyone else and myself.
So getting over that getting on the other side of that.
I’m making up with myself.
Making up for lost time.
Making up for everything I ever did and never did.”
“‘Hello’ actually started with the lyric, ‘Hello misery.’
So you could imagine the mood I was in!”
she said, laughing.
“I was [effing] miserable.”
“Adele sang the chorus out while we wrote it, as it is on the record.
It was originally in F# minor but we took it down to F minor.
I like the darker sound that it became after doing that.”
