Adele's 'Someone Like You'

Adele has created a Billboard upset with the rise of her song “Someone Like You” from spot 19 to 1 on the music charts. It is the biggest jump in history for a song that is not a single.

"Someone Like You" is a song by British singer-songwriter Adele. Written by Adele and Dan Wilson for her second studio album 21, the song was inspired by a broken relationship of hers, and lyrically it speaks of Adele coming to terms with it.

I heard that your settled down.

That you found a girl and your married now.

I heard that your dreams came true.

Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.

Old friend why are you so shy?

It ain't like you to hold back or hide from the lie.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited.

But I couldn't stay away I couldn't fight it.

I'd hoped you'd see my face & that you'd be reminded

That for me it isn't over.

Nevermind I'll find someone like you.

I wish nothing but the best for you too.

Don't forget me I beg I remember you said:-

"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"

Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead yeah.

You'd know how the time flies.

Only yesterday was the time of our lives.

We were born and raised in a summery haze.

Bound by the surprise of our glory days.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited

But I couldn't stay away I couldn't fight it.

I'd hoped you'd see my face & that you'd be reminded

That for me it isn't over yet.

Nevermind I'll find someone like you.

I wish nothing but the best for you too.

Don't forget me I beg I remember you said:-

"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead" yay.

Nothing compares no worries or cares.

Regret's and mistakes they're memories made.

Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Nevermind I'll find someone like you.

I wish nothing but the best for you too.

Don't forget me I beg I remembered you said:-

"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"

Nevermind I'll find someone like you.

I wish nothing but the best for you too.

Don't forget me I beg I remembered you said:-

"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"

Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead yay yeh yeah

It was reported that the music video for the song was already filmed in Paris, France and it was directed by English director Jake Nava. Several black-and-white pictures which showed Adele "gazing out over a river against a cloudy backdrop" were also posted.. Talking about the video, Nava said, "The location evokes style and romance. And shooting early in the morning allows you to focus on Adele in this lonely and emotional space." The video will be premiered on 29 September at 7:56 p.m. EST on MTV and VEVO.James Montgomery of MTV News called it "a somber, black-and-white affair, featuring Adele wandering the early morning streets and pining for her long-lost love. It's a perfect match for the song's jaw-dropping emotional range — raw and unfiltered and incredibly sad but also, in a lot of ways, beautiful and resolute."
