Of the album, <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/arts-culture/music/2021/10/14/adele-announces-new-album-30-five-things-we-know-so-far/" target="_blank">Adele</a> says she wrote it as she “painstakingly rebuilt my house and my heart” and “this album narrates it”. “I was certainly nowhere near where I’d hoped to be when I first started [<a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/arts-culture/music/2021/10/14/adele-announces-new-album-30-five-things-we-know-so-far/" target="_blank"><i>30</i></a>] nearly three years ago. Quite the opposite actually. I rely on routine and consistency to feel safe, I always have. And yet there I was knowingly – willingly even – throwing myself into a maze of absolute mess and inner turmoil.” Adele last released music in 2015, with the album <i>25</i>, which included singles <i>Hello, When We Were Young, Send My Love (To Your New Lover) </i>and<i> Water Under the Bridge. </i>Adele described <i>25</i> as a "make-up" album, a contrast to her previous releases about heartbreak. Her new album is set to be released on Friday, November 19, and follows single <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/arts-culture/2021/10/15/adele-drops-music-video-for-easy-on-me/" target="_blank"><i>Easy On Me</i></a>, which broke the steaming record with 24 million listens in one week after its 15 October release.
