Adele has made her comeback after three years but what is her new hit Hello really about and who is on the other side? Here’s a breakdown of some of the star’s lyrics to understand what she is really trying to say.
Hello, it’s me
It’s been a while, so she’s just letting us know that it’s her and she’s back
Hello, can you hear me?
If you can’t then just turn that stereo up a bit
California dreaming about who we used to be
The Brit is homesick in California thinking about the good old times with an ex
Hello from the other side (and outside)
Still not sure where ‘the other side’ is but possibly her £5.2million oceanfront Malibu mansion back to someone in England
But it don’t matter, it clearly doesn’t tear you apart anymore
Poor Adele, she clearly still loves ‘him’ but he’s just over it
The question everyone wants answered is who is she really saying hello to? She has revealed the broad inspiration for the song saying:
“No, it’s not about anyone specifically. It’s about friends, ex-boyfriends, it’s about myself, it’s about my family. It’s also about my fans as well.”
We’ll never really know who Hello is about but we’ll be belting it out whenever it comes on for a while.
