A Personal Story Of 'Hello'

It brought a tear to my eye I thought of a failed relationship in my life. Telling myself they would forgive me and take me back, but they didnt. To be honest I hated Adele's '21' album it was like poison to me to me Lady Gaga's 'Born This Way' album should of been the top album of 2011. but it wasn't the top album Adele literally blew away all the competition. I bought '21' the summer of 2011, only because I really wanted to see what all that hype was about? My favorite song off that record was 'I'll Be Waiting' it really captivated me because I was seeing someone that I knew would never love me back. But the LP as a whole didn't inspire me at that time. It took a broken heart to understand the full extent of the album of the year. Four years later I understand the power of Adele and I was fully ready for the lead single from the album '25.' 'Hello' is a song about reaching out to a past lover, friend, or family member however you want to interpret it. In my life a lot of people came and went and the hurt was always deep inside of me, like what if I would never get to see them again. I thought of all of that when I first heard 'Hello.' But one person stood out though a relationship at the beginning of this year. I just wanted to say sorry to that person for being such a jerk wanting to be drunk instead of going on dates, and just enjoying each others company. I guess the bottle was that much better than breaking a heart. The visuals for 'Hello' really inspired me to learn in my video class how to create a music video that breathtakingly beautiful. When the guy in the video puts his hands over his head wondering why this is happening. I thought of the person I was with and if they felt the same way when I broke their heart. The song is closure for me a seal that all I can do now is move on. I tried to fix it and say sorry but it never worked in the way I had hoped. Adele is truly in a league of her own she knows manipulate and craft a feeling into a song that connects with the whole world. And I know her single 'Hello' is just the beginning of the '25' era.
