La cantante Adele ha rilasciato il secondo singolo estratto da 25: ecco il video e il testo di When We Were Young.
Adele ha pubblicato il secondo singolo estratto dal suo nuovo disco “25”: si intitola “When we were young”. La ballad segue di appena un mese la pubblicazione di “Hello”, che in poco tempo è balzato ai vertici delle classifiche dei singoli più venduti di tutto il mondo ed è stabile al primo posto nella prestigiosa chart di Billboard (USA). “When we were young” rappresenta un terreno consolidato per Adele, che ci ha da sempre abituati a ballate sofisticate e particolarmente suggestive.
La cantante inglese ha pubblicato un video live della canzone, mentre “25” vende più di tre milioni di copie in America a soli sette giorni dalla data di rilascio. Un traguardo, questo, che ha sbaragliato la concorrenza decretando il record di album più venduto in una settimana da “No Strings Attached” degli ‘nSync: correva l’anno, 2000. Allora non esistevano gli innumerevoli modi per ascoltare musica al di là dell’acquisto del disco nei negozi, ma Adele sa il fatto suo, ed ha proibito la riproduzione di “25” ad ogni piattaforma streaming legale esistente. Dato, questo, che ha forse spinto il disco in vetta alle chart così rapidamente. “When we were young” è solo il secondo assaggio del nuovo album della cantante inglese, di seguito il testo della canzone:
GUARDA QUI IL VIDEO DI WHEN WE WERE YOUNG
When we were young, testo
Everybody loves the things you do
From the way you talk
To the way you move
Everybody here is watching you
Cause you feel like home
You’re like a dream come true
But if by chance you’re here alone
Can I have a moment
Before I go?
Cause I’ve been by myself all night long
Hoping you’re someone I used to know
You look like a movie
You sound like a song
My God, this reminds me
Of when we were young
Let me photograph you in this light
In case it is the last time
That we might be exactly like we were
Before we realized
We were sad of getting old
It made us restless
It was just like a movie
It was just like a song
I was so scared to face my fears
Cause nobody told me that you’d be here
And I swear you moved overseas
That’s what you said, when you left me
You still look like a movie
You still sound like a song
My God, this reminds me
Of when we were young
Let me photograph you in this light
In case it is the last time
That we might be exactly like we were
Before we realized
We were sad of getting old
It made us restless
It was just like a movie
It was just like a song
When we were young
When we were young
When we were young
When we were young
It’s hard to admit that
Everything just takes me back
To when you were there
To when you were there
And a part of me keeps holding on
Just in case it hasn’t gone
I guess I still care
Do you still care?
It was just like a movie
It was just like a song
My God, this reminds me
Of when we were young
When we were young
When we were young
When we were young
When we were young
Let me photograph you in this light
In case it is the last time
That we might be exactly like we were
Before we realized
We were sad of getting old
It made us restless
I’m so mad I’m getting old
It makes me reckless
It was just like a movie
It was just like a song
When we were young
