and given the massive promo and adele-mania from late oct to late dec, it was a good thing she kinda "dissapeared" for a while!
given how massive hello became, and still is, i guess they waited it out a bit more than planned

Honestly it's the right way. Other popstars have to hurry a new song to make up for the quality.
Catchiness and feeding the microwaveable need it fast society doesn't apply to a legend like Adele.
Oct-Jan Hello technically ran it's rightful course (3-4 months) 7.9M album sales
Feb-May When we were young 9.5-10M
late May-August Send my love 11M
Sept-Dec Water under the bridge/All I ask/Sweetest Devotion/I miss you 13M
might as well wait until Feb to collect the grammy's a put out a final single All i ask/Sweetest Devotion/I miss you/Water under the bridge
