Grammy Award winning vocal powerhouse, Adele, has stayed relatively off the radar since her hit song for the James Bond film “Skyfall.” Or at least that was true until Wednesday morning when the singer published a note to her fans on the subject of aging. “When I was 7, I wanted to be 8. When I was 8, I wanted to be 12. When I turned 12, I just wanted to be 18.” she wrote. “I’ve spent my whole life so far wishing it away. Always wishing I was older, wishing I was somewhere else, wishing I could remember and wishing I could forget too.” Then the artist hinted at the theme of her next album.
“My last record was a break-up record and if I had to label this one I would call it a make-up record,” she reflected. “I’m making up with myself. Making up for lost time. Making up for everything I ever did and never did.” The artist’s only other reference to the her upcoming album was a vague tweet that might have simply been a reference to her birthday.
