Instead, she tried working with a multitude of writers and producers, which apparently helped because she worked with over a dozen of them there are as many listed in the album’s credits.
Suffice to say, 25 was much more difficult to make than 19 or 21. But after the album was complete, she decided that it was too “boring” and wanted to go back to the drawing board. And when she finally was struck with inspiration again, it was to write an album about motherhood, something she was newly experiencing. Well, not surprisingly, both of these things plagued Adele. I’d even consider never releasing another album, to go out on an extremely high note. That would make me so anxious I’d get writers block. What if you put out another album and people hated it? Then you’d be known for releasing one of the worst follow ups ever.
More importantly, you don’t want to disappoint all of those people who bought your last record. You know there’s no way you can top the last album’s success, but you want to. (I just went with the vinyl.) Billboard dubbed it the “Greatest Album of All Time.” How do you follow that up? Talk about being in the pressure cooker. Some people even bought it twice, having to own it on CD and vinyl. If you didn’t buy it, you’re probably only a two degrees away from someone who did.
Adele’s last album, 21, has sold over 30 million copies worldwide.
