The first new music in six years from British superstar songstress Adele is out today, marking her return after a long hiatus that saw a divorce and a remarkable physical transformation.
The new song, “Easy on Me,” is a spare midtempo ballad that, like her other songs, reflects her real-life experiences. “Go easy on me, baby,” she sings. “I was still a child / Didn’t get the chance to feel the world around me / Had no time to choose what I chose to do / So go easy on me.”
