And even though I don’t feel like I’ve changed, I don’t have anything in common with who I was when I lived in Tottenham any more, other than that I’m the same person, and I feel bad about that sometimes. I feel a bit guilty about how well I’ve done. And sometimes I get frightened that everyone’s going to realize that this is the biggest blag of all time, and I’m going to be sent back to Tottenham. There’s nothing wrong with being sent back to Tottenham, but sometimes it’s quite unlikely that anything like this would happen to someone who comes from my background. There’s a saying, you can take a girl out of Tottenham but you can’t take Tottenham out of the girl. “River Lea” “River Lea is a river that runs by where I grew up in Tottenham in North London. I would much rather do that than just sit in the dark.” They make me feel loved by him and make me love him more when we overcome stuff. Overcoming those things - I think they make me feel powerful.
That’s part of it, and that’s as thrilling for me as the kicks I used to get out of a relationship falling apart. All relationships are up and down, and that’s part of a relationship - the tapestry of it and the muddiness of it.
“Water Under the Bridge” “It’s about making a relationship work, about wanting to make a relationship work. “It’s a hello to myself, hello to all my friends, hello to my ex-boyfriend, hello to who I’m going to be in 10 years, hello to my kid in 10 years, hello to my boyfriend in 10 years - to my fans, to everyone. I love what I do, and I feel really, really lucky, but maybe our 7-year-old selves wouldn’t. And I’m curious to know if our 7-year-old selves, if they met us when we were adults, and we were like, ‘Well this is what we ended up doing,’ if we’d be satisfied.
“Hello” “That’s reaching out to who I used to be when I was younger. “But if my music can comfort anyone and make them feel like, ‘I’m not the only one, someone else feels how I feel,’ then that’s my job done.” She also offered details about seven of the songs on “25.” These are edited excerpts from that conversation. “It sounds really cheesy,” Adele told The New York Times chief pop music critic Jon Pareles when he visited her in London for an in-depth interview. With at least 2,433,000 copies of the album sold in just over three days, “25” is also set to more than double the first-week sales of some of the biggest albums of the past 15 years, including Taylor Swift’s “1989,” the Beatles’ “1” and Eminem’s “The Eminem Show.” Adele’s “25” is easily shaping up to be the best-selling album of 2015: Billboard reports that Adele Adkins’s third album has broken the record for single-week sales set by ‘N Sync’s “No Strings Attached” in March 2000.
