Following a universally praised performance of the song at the 31st Brit Awards, it became Adele's first number-one single in the UK and stayed on the top of the chart for five weeks, eventually becoming the best-selling single of the year in the region. It became a global success, topping the charts in nineteen countries and reaching the top 10 in various other regions. "Someone like You" received universal critical acclaim, with reviewers choosing it as a highlight of 21 and praised the lyrics, its simple sound and Adele's vocal performance. Accompanied only by a piano in the song (played by co-writer Wilson), Adele sings about the end of the relationship with her ex-partner. XL Recordings released the song as the second single from the album on 24 January 2011 (the same day the album was released) in the United Kingdom and on 9 August 2011 in the United States. The song was inspired by a broken relationship with one's life partner, and lyrically speaks of Adele's coming to terms with it. It is the second single and final track on the album. It was written and produced by Adele and Dan Wilson for her second studio album, 21 (2011). " Someone like You" is a song recorded by English singer-songwriter Adele.
