With the release of Adele's third album, 25, I thought it was only appropriate to make today's post about her song "When We Were Young" she released earlier this week. After "Hello," I wasn't sure she could outdo herself, but Adele somehow always seems to mange to. "When We Were Young" is about running into an ex flame and how that moment can bring up memories from the past and wanting to preserve moments of our lives. As usual, Adele has lyrics that really make you think claw at your soul a bit such as "We were sad of getting old, it made us restless/I'm so mad I'm getting old it makes me reckless." The sound of the song is very typical Adele, however, what really sets the song apart is the widening of Adele's range of vocals. Near the end of the song, she hits a note that makes your jaw drop. I'm looking forward to hearing what else Adele has up her sleeve on this new album.
