musician in this world, that has some of the best songs, always has pain behind it, that has always been the case and that definitely the case with adele and this song, easy on me. i don t know of people realise, but if you watch the music video, that same house that you see her walking out of and grabbing her belongings is the same house where she shot the music video for hello. this time, she is walking away, saying goodbye to the past, so i thought that was really interesting. what do you imagine we may see next from adele? she talked about the fact that a lot of people wanted to see her go on tour and now we re living at times, in the pandemic and you have to have to take covid restrictions, so she is not quite sure about going on a global world tour right now, but she is open to doing small venues, so she is hoping to get back out there and sing for people, do the things that make her and all of us happy, which is seeing her perform live.
