British singer Adele blasted the charts with a new hit. Six years after the release of her last album 25, the singer released a new track and video Easy on Me.
Produced by collaborator Greg Kurstin, Adele's single finds the British singer-songwriter acknowledging internal demons and the damage they've inflicted.
'It's not a heartbreak anthem as much as a tentatively hopeful ballad from a woman emerging from an emotionally marooned period. Rough with feeling, Adele's pliant vibrato stretches before leaping over an intense piano progression. "Easy On Me" is a plea: a reminder to oneself and a loved one that giving up isn't necessarily a failure and that even in our missteps, we're worthy of tender patience. 30, Adele's fourth studio album, will be released Nov. 19,' NPR reported.
