Adele Album News: Chart Topper Thought Singing About Motherhood Would Be Too ‘Boring’ [VIDEO]
Adele might be in love with motherhood, but it's not a topic that she necessarily wants to sing or talk about. The megastar recently opened up about her highly-anticipated album, 25, and how she thought writing about her experiences as a mother would be too boring for her fans.
According to Xpose on Thursday, Adele sat down with BBC Radio 1, revealing that she's struggled with her material, especially since she was concerned that it might come across as too personal.
Asked about how the new album mirrors her personal life, Adele said, "Definitely for this record I would say so, because when I was writing my last record no one was waiting. "There was no one sitting with a pen trying to analyze what I was talking about. It took me a long time to focus on how I wanted to write and what I wanted to write about."

She added, "I mean I can't write 21 again because I'm not in that place, I'm in a great place. I had to find another part of my life - I did pretty much write an album about being a mum, but that's pretty boring for everyone who isn't a mum (so) I scrapped that."
The chart topper also said that she feels her material is maturing as she is getting older, too.
"A lot of stuff in my life has changed and not at all because of my career, but just because stuff changes as you get older, and I found myself yearning for my past for no reason specifically other than it had gone," Adele continued. "I missed elements of it, I didn't want to be back there... it's not about an ex love relationship, it's about my relationships with everyone that I love. I miss a lot of those people, it's not that we've fallen out or anything it's just that we've all got our own lives going on... I needed to write that song so they would all hear it."
