Released on last Friday, 'Hello' has ruled the iTunes singles chart in 85 countries.

According to official figures, the music video averaged one million views per hour for its first two days since going online.

In addition, 'Hello' is already a record breaker as it reaches 200,000 Shazams, an app which users can identify the music by listening to a short sample of audio.

Last week, Adele has explained through a heartfelt message posted on Twitter, that while her previous album '21' was a break-up record, her new album is a "make-up record".

The new album '25' is scheduled to be released on November 20th.

The singer's sophomore album '21' has sold over eleven million units in the Unites Sates, and won the Grammy Award for album of the year.
