The song is also performing well on other platforms, too and at about 2 p.m. PT on Friday the music video had already racked up 36 million views and it was also at the top of the U.S. iTunes chart.

A few days ago (October 16), Adele also hinted to fans what they can expect to hear on her next album, 30, which will arrive on November 19. The new album will deal with Adele’s divorce from her husband Simon Konecki, which was finalized in March after the couple had been separated for nearly two years. The singer told Vogue that the album is her attempt to explain her divorce from Konecki to her 9-year-old son Angelo when he’s older.

When asked on Radio 2 about possible options for the first single, Adele told Zoe Ball there were “three”, before going on to describe how each sounded.

Adele explained: “There were three options for the first single. Very different, all of them. There’s obviously “Easy On Me”, then there’s another one…I got very into Goldfrapp and I was like, ‘I can do this music too!’. I can do one song, I definitely couldn’t pull off what Alison [Goldfrapp does], she’s the absolute Queen. And there’s another one that’s very 70s, piano singer-songwritery. Just very Carpenters, very Elton [John].”
