Adele - When We Were Young (Lyric) Felix Irwan Cover SONG MEANING: "When We Were Young" by Adele is about meeting up with friends from the past and discussing how things have been. Adele meets one friend in particular and makes amends with him. But the song is really about making amends with the past, represented by that friend. Adele is slowly releasing singles from her album 25 in preparation for the album's release on Friday. The album is one of the most anticipated in history, and after her single "Hello" sold over a million units in one week, everyone's expecting 25 to also be huge. On her website, Adele explains, “My last record was a break-up record and if I had to label this one I would call it a make-up record. I’m making up with myself. Making up for lost time.” She further explains that she felt bad for always wishing to get older and to move onto the next thing. Now she wishes she had it all back, so in this album, she’s revisiting herself at age 25 to make peace with the past. In “When We Were Young,” she makes peace with one friend in particular. Their relationship seems to have ended poorly, and it’s not definitely clear whether the person is male or female or if the relationship was romantic, so there’s plenty of room for open interpretation. (In my explanation, I won’t assume romance but will refer to the person as male.) I’ve added “When We Were Young” and several other recent hits to my Spotify playlist “Clifford Stumme’s Pop Prerogative.” Feel free to follow the playlist! (If the song’s not yet there, I’m waiting for it to release on Spotify. Thanks for your patience!) Follow Us On Instagram @menatap.lagu
