Adele’s Newest Song is Jaw-Droppingly Incredible

As we are kept waiting in anticipation of this upcoming Friday’s release of 25, our girl Adele has just released the full version of “When We Were Young”—you know, the song we got a 30-second preview of yesterday (which we obviously listened to on repeat).

It’s the perfect follow-up to her hit “Hello,” that desperately soulful song that got us all pretty close to making the poor decision of calling our exes. With lyrics like “Let me photograph you in this light / In case it is the last time” and “I guess I still care / Do you still care?” you’ll probably find yourself literally sobbing as the song progresses, without even knowing why. (Ugh, Adele.) Listen to the full song below—and prepare to experience ALL the heartwrenching emotions.
