Writing and composition

"Hello" was written by Adele and Greg Kurstin and produced by the latter. Kurstin also played bass,
guitar, drums, piano and keyboards, while Adele also played drums.[9] "Hello" was written in Chiswick,
London, something not normally done by Adele, who said she likes to write her music at home.[10] The
writing process for the song was slow, taking six months to complete. Initially Adele and Kurstin started
writing the first verse; finishing half of the song, six months later Adele contacted Kurstin to finish the
song with her, with Kurstin stating he was not sure "if Adele was ever going to come back and finish
it."[11]
"Hello" is a soul piano ballad,[2][12] played in the key of F minor at a tempo of 79 beats per minute. The
repeated chord progression heard in the verse, played by the piano, follows two progressions and a
passage(Bridge) progression(passage or Bridge progression connects two main progressions to each
other) of Progression #1: Fm(i)–A♭(III)–E♭(VII)–D♭(VI),Passage progression: Fm(i)–E♭(VII)-Cm(v)-
D ♭ (VI)-Fm7(i7)-E ♭ (VII)–D ♭ (VI),Progression #2:Fm(i)–D ♭ /F(VI)–A ♭ (III)–E ♭ (VII). According to
Musicnotes.com, Adele's vocals span from F3 to A♭ 5 in the song.[13] During the chorus, Adele is heard
singing the lines over layers of backing vocals, piano and drums which were described by The Daily
Telegraph as having "a very luscious wall of sound".[8]
Lyrically, the song focuses on themes of nostalgia and regret and plays out like a conversation. The song
was noted for containing themes of regret and was seen as a follow-up to her single "Someone like You"
appearing to reflect on a failed relationship. The song's lyrics were also seen as being conversational,
revolving around "all the relationships of her past", ranging from friends, family members and ex-
partners.[14] Speaking on the song's lyrical content, Adele told Nick Grimshaw on The Radio 1 Breakfast
Show: "I felt all of us were moving on, and it's not about an ex-relationship, a love relationship, it's about
my relationship with everyone that I love. It's not that we have fallen out, we've all got our lives going on
and I needed to write that song so they would all hear it, because I'm not in touch with them."[15]
According to Adele, the line "Hello from the other side" signifies "the other side of becoming an adult,
making it out alive from your late teens, early twenties."[11]
Release
On 18 October 2015, a 30-second clip of "Hello" was played during a commercial break on The X Factor
in the United Kingdom. The commercial teased what was then new material, with her vocals
accompanied by lyrics on a black screen.[16] Josh Duboff of Vanity Fair wrote that "the Internet
collectively lost its mind" after the broadcast of the trailer.[17] On 22 October, Adele announced the
upcoming release of 25 to her fans on Twitter. She also shared that "Hello" would be released on 23
October as the lead single off of the album.[18][19][20] On 23 October, Adele joined Nick Grimshaw's show
on BBC Radio 1 for the song's premiere.[21][22]
Critical reception
Alexis Petridis of The Guardian described it as "a big ballad, but a superior example of its kind", and
opined that the song is "precisely the kind of lovelorn epic ballad that made Adele one of the biggest stars
in the world."[23] Writing for The Independent, Emily Jupp stated in her review of the song that it "might
not be groundbreaking, but Adele's return with her familiar, smoky sound is very welcome". She called it
an " 'if it ain't broke' ballad" and said: "Adele does what she does best, belting out emotional tales of love
and loss much the same as with her last album, 21, but this time, with a little more self-forgiveness."[24]
Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune wrote: "Lyrics that work best when they zoom in on personal details
match her combination of vocal power and restraint."[25] Neil McCormick from The Daily Telegraph
called it "a beautiful song of loss and regret", adding that "it takes a grip on the kind of memory every
listener holds somewhere in their heart and merges it with Adele's own drama."[8] Rolling Stone ranked
"Hello" at number 6 on its year-end list to find the 50 best songs of 2015.[26] Several publications have
commented on similarities in the theme of the song and accompanying video with that of "Hello" by
American singer Lionel Richie.[27][28]

also rose from 6 to 1 on the Radio Songs chart in just its fourth week (the greatest leap to number one on
the chart's 25-year history), marking the quickest climb to number one on the chart in 22 years, since
Mariah Carey's "Dreamlover" reached the top in its fourth frame on 28 August 1993. Additionally,
"Hello" became just the third song to top the Hot 100, Digital Songs, Streaming Songs, On-Demand
Songs and Radio Songs tallies simultaneously in the nearly three years all five charts had coexisted.[41]

the top of the Adult Contemporary Chart, matching the record set by Kelly Clarkson's "Breakaway"
(2005) and Celine Dion's "A New Day Has Come" (2002) for the longest No. 1 run among women since
the list launched in 1961. It also equaled the third-longest stay at the summit among all acts.[46] On 20
September 2016, the song was certified as seven platinum by Recording Industry Association of
America.[47]
"Hello" debuted at number one on the Canadian Hot 100 on 3 November 2015, for the chart dated 14
November 2015, selling 140,000 copies and outsold Justin Bieber's "Sorry", which sold 40,000 units the

The accompanying music video for "Hello" was directed by Canadian "When I heard the song I saw a

The video stars American actor Tristan Wilds. According to Dolan, concept of the music

United States, suggesting that a Caucasian male not be cast as her love
interest in the video. Dolan elaborated "She was just like, 'I'm
concerned with the reality of the tensions between authorities and the
black community, and I want to send a message out there.'"[86][87] Dolan contacted Wilds via Skype and
explained the concept for the video, which Wilds agreed to take part in.[88] During the filming, both
Adele and Wilds were asked to improvise and "tap into" their past relationships in order to convey the
correct emotions. Dolan also filmed shots of both Adele and Wilds having conversations and
laughing.[88] The sepia toned video shows Adele performing the song in a small house and outside in a
wooded forest, intercut with scenes of her making a tearful phone call and flashbacks to a past
relationship with Wilds' character.[89]
The flip phone used by Adele in the video was widely commented upon due to being of a retro style.
Dolan replied to the remarks by saying: "It makes me uncomfortable filming iPhones because I feel like
I'm shooting a commercial. Those things: iPhones, laptops, all those elements, to me, they bring me back
to reality: That's not what you want. You want to get out of your own life; you want to enter someone
else's; you want to travel somewhere; you want to be told a story. I'm realizing maybe I've been more
distracting than anything else with that flip phone, but it wasn't intentional!"[90]
The music video for "Hello" broke the previous Vevo Record by achieving over 27.7 million views within
its first 24 hours of release. This record was previously held by the music video for Taylor Swift's "Bad
Blood", which had amassed 20.1 million views in its first 24 hours.[91] Later, the video continued to
break Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball" Vevo record for the fastest video to reach 100 million views in five
days.[92] The phrase "Adele hello" was also the top YouTube search term of Friday and Saturday, and on
average the video was getting one million views per hour during the first two days, peaking at 1.6 million
in a single hour, beating the peak view rate of the trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which
peaked at 1.2 million views per hour.[93] The video was parodied in a Thanksgiving-themed skit on
Saturday Night Live.[94]
As of June 2020, the video is the 25th most viewed video on YouTube,[95] having earned over 2.6 billion
views.[96][97] The video also became the third video on YouTube to reach 10 million likes on 29 May
2016, and has over 15 million likes as of June 2020, ranking it 11th on the list of most-liked YouTube
videos.[98]
