The Queen is back and greeting her fans "Hello"

Tuesday, October 27, 2015
Taking a break from "The 7 rules Of Life" mini-series to talk about the News while I put my thoughts in order and pull myself together to deliver articles with content which you can (hopefully) relate to. This being said, on the agenda today is what has been on the headlines of every journal, magazine and website which is (of course) the Release of Hello, a title from the new record of Adele entitled 25. Although the majority of Adele's fans  loved it, some others didn’t. And it’s totally okay because we all have different taste and it is that difference and diversity that makes the world the complex yet beautiful place we live in. I personally loved that song and all of Adele’s songs, not only because I am a fan of her,  a fan of great music with substance, a fan of most of the artists the UK have given us, but mostly because most, if not all, of Adele’s songs hit home for me. Her lyrics make me travel in time and her music just says what I would say if I could find the right words. 


"Every song is a path that leads to an ocean of words that got lost somewhere in between our mind and our heart ; an ocean of words about the things that were left unsaid"~ F.A


I think it’s more than the words and the melodies: it’s about the emotions behind every song and how you can relate to them because each one of them takes you to a place in life; whether it’s a happy or a sad one where every word she says resonates and makes your entire being vibrate. I love how upon releasing this song she made a statement about life, what we want to be, stages we want to be at and once we reach them we then wished we hadn’t. What particularly moved me is how she talked about getting to know herself and finally being at peace with who she had become but more importantly, how she qualifies 25 as being a "Make-up record" unlike 21 which she says was a "breakup record"
 
"My last record was a breakup record and if I had to label this one I would call it a make-up record. I'm making up with myself. Making up for lost time. Making up with everything I ever did and never did." ~ Adele
Entering the early 20’s is an important turn in someone’s life. It’s the time where you start forming your personality as an adult, you start changing and evolving and understanding things in life you didn’t before. It’s a period for me that was about building myself, finding myself, nurturing myself and healing my wounds just like Adele said, because supposedly time helps you heal. And it does. And as years go by, you become wiser and start viewing life under a new angle and a new light. You start thinking more about your future in a more realistic way but you also think about the past a lot. You think about the choices you made which were not necessarily the best ones, you think about all the times you have messed up and if you hadn’t before, you draw lessons from them. You get to understand and experience at a deeper level the value of things like friendship, relationships, love, and every little moment of happiness you spend by the side of the people you love and who mean the world to you.  You are no longer blindsided by your anger, pain and frustration about getting your feelings hurt and your heart broken because you don't have the time nor the energy for it: you are focusing on better things. You have come full circle and have decided to redirect your energy to things that matter, things that will make you a better person. You reach that stage where you finally have a sense of who you are and where you stand and you are at peace with it.

In her first interview in three years with i- D that you can read in full here, Adele was asked what was Hello about. To that question her answer was : “The song is about hurting someone's feelings but it's also about trying to stay in touch with myself, which sometimes can be a little bit hard to do” and when asked if that song was a form of apology to the former love the refers to her most famous song Someone like you, the singer responded: "Oh, god no,"[…] "That's over and done with, thank fuck. That's been over and done with for fucking years. 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”
Whether we talk about the topics addressed in Hello or about the musicality and the vocals, it is undeniable that maturity is imprinted in that album. It is what makes the DNA and the structure of that album: This album is about maturity, all it has to offer  and the opportunity to start a new season in life. People find that song simple and to that the only question I can’t help but ask myself is:  isn’t it what maturity is about? simplicity? Isn’t it about letting go of all the artifacts and superficial embellishments to get back to the basics and most simple things in life that we most of the time ignore? I think maturity is all about those things: getting back to the basic to figure out who you are in order to grow and be a better version of yourself.
