Star singer Adele said to herself “excited” and “delighted” by the release of his new album 30 Friday, “after starting work four years ago“on this project. She confides exclusively on France Inter Thursday, November 18. Her new album is called 30, like his age and like each of his previous albums. There have been 19, 21 and 25.
Adele’s albums are the best-selling 21st century albums worldwide, over 120 million. The first single from his new album, Easy and me, released a month ago, was the most listened to song of all time in 24 hours. “It’s crazy”, recognizes the singer. “It’s always a surprise every time. We don’t know how the public will react. And then, six years have passed since the last album, and it’s the streaming generation now, I hadn’t known that before. So , we don’t necessarily know if it will please this generation, my music. In the meantime, it actually worked “, she notes.
The Briton finds it hard to understand such a success. “People believe in my music, in my story”.
“People are interested because my songs are sad, whereas I have a very happy temperament.”
The clip of this single, Easy and me, was put in images by the Quebec director Xavier Dolan, who had already directed that of Hello. The star praised the director’s work, “a friend” who “has a very creative vision, a real energy. I’ve never seen that in anyone else. And then, we are quite close in age too. We are really very in phase. He is really an artist. . That’s what I love. “
This disc “was therapeutic for me, without a doubt.” “It’s really a leap into the unknown. It is often therapy, we go for it and we hope to land”. Today she says to herself “proud” and feel that I have “come a long way” since the release of his first album.
No concert in France is planned for the moment. “With the Covid, it’s impossible to plan things. But I will come to Paris often, because I have a loved one who settles down. When things calm down a bit I will enjoy the bars and good bread ! “
