Adele considered “three very different” options for her new single

[renly0910 413]

Speaking to Zoe Ball on her BBC Radio Breakfast Show, Adele admitted that she had three strong contenders in mind for a first single.

“There was three options for the first single,” said Adele, adding they were “very, very different, all of them.”

She then shared a few details about the songs that potentially could have been the lead single for ’30’. “Obviously ‘Easy on Me,'” she said, “and then there’s another one which is like, I got very into Goldfrapp again,” she noted.

“There’s another one that’s very sort of ’70s, like piano, singer-songwriter-y,” she added. “When I say piano, I mean it’s got a whole band on it, but just very Carpenters, like very Elton, whatever.”

Adele said she decided to go with ‘Easy On Me’ because of its “soaring chorus” and because it simply “just felt like a me song”, which she said was important to her being she hadn’t released a new album in six years.

So she is threating with more epic single material? Taylor and Ed are not ready for this.

Happy to hear there are some other flavors on this album. Cause the lead she chose is straight up vanilla

I love Goldfrapp can’t wait 

[Bling 31,288]

Love Adele but how tf is "70's, piano, singer-songwriter-y" different from any of her lead singles and majority of her discography? 

I would SO be here for Adele electronic ala Goldfrapp, but she probably means Goldfrapp's slow songs

Eh, I feel like a lot of her stuff is more adult contemporary out of like...the 90s...versus 70s Elton.

This makes me pretty excited ngl 

& glad she sort of admitted she went safe with Easy On Me as the lead, many of us were feeling just that.

Well, seeing how it's been, "very different" might mean a key change or a minute longer for her.
