Adele - “Hello” (Official Video)

Just two days ago, Adele announced that the follow-up to her 2011 mega-blockbuster would be coming out soon. The new album is called 25, and it’s set to arrive next month. And this morning, we finally get to hear “Hello,” the album’s first single and Adele’s first new one since 2012’s “Skyfall.” It’s a grand, sweeping soul song, and it comes with a stately black-and-white video from director Xavier Dolan. Adele stars alongside Tristan Wilds, the actor who played Michael on seasons four and five of The Wire. On first listen, the song sounds pretty great. Check it out below.
