Adele breaks the internet! Fans react to the singer’s first new music in five years

Adele’s new single Easy On Me has topped the charts in the UK and US and racked up a whopping 25 million views on YouTube in just 15 hours. The singer, 33, left her fans in tears as she finally released her first new track in five years, which reflects on the pain she felt amid her divorce from husband Simon Konecki. The highly-anticipated single, released on YouTube at midnight on Friday ahead of her album 30 set to drop next month, soon shot to YouTube’s top trending clip.

Along with the music video - which sees the star, 33, pack up her house and drive away, as pages of sheet music flutter out of the windows onto the road - the single went down a storm with fans who took to Twitter to claim it was giving them 'goosebumps' - with one going as far to claim it made them want to get a divorce themselves.
