Adele Confirms Her New Record Is Called 25

After sharing a snippet of a new song on British TV this past weekend, Adele has confirmed that her new record is on the way with a heartfelt note shared on Twitter this morning. Mostly, the note addresses the themes of her new material—after the break-up that dominated 21, this record's about "making up with myself"—and the reason for its delay ("life happened"). Along the way, it confirms that the album will be called 25, marking a phase in Adele's life just like 19 and 21 did.

While you're waiting anxiously for a release date, have a listen back to a song Adele co-wrote with Sia and Tobias Jesso Jr. earlier this year.
