The success of 21 earned Adele numerous mentions in the Guinness World Records. She is the first artist to sell more than 3 million copies of an album in a year in the UK. With her two albums and the first two singles from 21, "[[Rolling in the Deep (song)|Rolling in the Deep]]" and "[[Someone Like You (song)|Someone Like You]]", she became the first living artist to achieve the feat of having two top-five hits in both the UK Official Singles Chart and the Official Albums Chart simultaneously since the Beatles in 1964. With her third release from the album, "[[Set Fire to the Rain (song)|Set Fire to the Rain]]", which became her third number one single in the US, Adele became the first artist in history to lead the Billboard 200 concurrently with three Billboard Hot 100 number-ones. Two more less successful singles from 21 were released: "[[Rumour Has It (song)|Rumour Has It]]" (which peaked at number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100) and "[[Turning Tables (song)|Turning Tables]]" (which peaked at number 63 on the Hot 100 due to not being released as an official single in the US like it was in the majority of Europe). |

|content=[[File:Never Gonna Leave You.png|150px|right|link=]]'''"Never Gonna Leave You"''' is a song written by [[Adele]] and [[Fraser T. Smith]] for Adele's sophomore album, [[21]]. The song was produced by Smith. On September 1, 2014, the song leaked in full onto the Internet, along with "[[You'll Never See Me Again (song)|You'll Never See Me Again]]" and the demo for "Set Fire to the Rain". It can be assumed it was one of the earliest songs written for the album, as it included lyrics from several other songs included on the final version of 21. Many fans have stated that it is possible the song will be included on Adele's [[25|third studio album]] because it has a happier theme, similar to how Adele said the new album would sound. |
