Adele's third album was surrounded by nothing but rumors for the longest time, but this week news about the 21 follow-up has kicked into overdrive. After the "Skyfall" singer teased a new song "Hello" over the weekend on The X Factor U.K. and apologized to fans for the long delay, on Thursday (Oct. 22), she confirmed what we already sort of knew: a new album 25 will be released this November and a lead single is arriving in stores very, very soon.
Adele joined Instagram this week and her first post was a doozy: she announced that 25's long-speculated release date Nov. 20 is, in fact, a reality. Along with the big news that there's less than a month to wait for her new album, she also unveiled the record's artwork. Falling in line with 19 and 21, the cover for 25 features a close up shot of Adele's face, shot in stunning greyscale.
But, the world doesn't even have to wait that long for new Adele music. According to Consequence of Sound, the lead single from 25, the fittingly titled "Hello," will be released tomorrow (Oct. 23) along with its music video.
In addition to all the other Adele album news, a tracklist for 25 has also arrived. In addition to 25, we get some very Adele-y song titles such as "Send My Love (To Your New Lover)," "All I Ask" and "Sweetest Devotion."
