Adele's Hello Becomes Fastest Selling Single, Breaks 18 Year Record


With over 404 million YouTube views in a little over 3 weeks it's not surprising Adele's nostalgic single 'Hello' sold 480K digital copies in the United States in its third week of release and breaking an 18 year record. 

The first single from her upcoming album, entitled 25, is the first song to top 400K sales in each of its first three weeks since Elton John's Candle in the Wind, which was released in 1997 as a tribute to the late Princess Diana, making it the fastest-selling single in 18 years.

Adele likened her success to Kim Kardashian's Paper magazine shoot which attempted to break the internet, speaking to stalk.com, she said: 'I did a Kim Kardashian. Thank God it wasn't with my a**. It would've actually broke the Internet if it was my bum!'
