Hello is the lead single from Adele's third album, 25, released in 2015, and its opening line became one of the most quoted introductions in modern pop. The song topped charts around the world and its video was widely shared, which helped the first few seconds travel far beyond the full track. On social media, creators began isolating the greeting for reunion jokes, parodies and dramatic entrances, where the familiar voice does most of the storytelling. Its simplicity keeps it useful years later, because almost everyone recognises the line instantly.
À propos de ce son
Adele's soft opening line 'Hello, it's me' from her 2015 hit single, often used in memes and edits for awkward reunions, surprise messages and dramatic entries.
This short clip captures the first line of Adele's Hello, delivered in a low, breathy and instantly recognisable voice over a sparse piano backing. It lasts only a few seconds, but the pause after hello and the gentle rise on me give it a confessional, slightly theatrical feel. Hearing it immediately signals that someone familiar is returning after a long silence, which is why it lands so well as a punchline or a reveal. Viewers tend to smile before the joke even arrives because the melody and phrasing are so deeply familiar, turning a simple greeting into a moment of anticipation, nostalgia and gentle drama.
