Adele promises new track and new album

Adele has revealed that she'll have a new song out this year, but an album is still a while away.

The megastar soul singer spoke to French radio NRJ and said that there'll be a new tune "probably coming out at the end of the year. Then it depends how quickly I write some other new songs."

But a third album will be further away. She said, "I have to write another record, you know. If I didn't write my own songs, I'd be out next week with a new album. But because I write my own songs, I have to take time and live a little bit. There was a good two years between my first and second albums, so it'll be the same this time."

We had 19, then 21 two years later, so we presumed we'll get a new album next year titled 23. But she said "It won't be for a good two years" ... 24, 25?

She also said she doesn't feel too much pressure because her next album could never be as big as the multi-Grammy Award-winning, globally multi-platinum 21 has been.

"What's happened with this one is very rare, anyway," she admitted.
