In the video, Adele comes home to what appears to be a long-empty house after getting off the phone. In classic Adele fashion, she heartbreakingly croons, "Hello, it's me, I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet."
The music video was directed by young Canadian filmmaker and Cannes Film Festival regular, Xavier Dolan.
The video's release follows the announcement that she's releasing a new album, 25, which fans have been awaiting since 2011's 21. On the social media posts that announced the album, Adele wrote, "25 is about getting to know who I've become without realising."
After 21, the last song Adele released was the award-winning "Skyfall," the theme for the James Bond film of the same title.
Along with the video, Adele also announced 25 was available for pre-orders on her website.
