Fans are very excited about Adele’s new song, “Easy on Me.” So it’s no surprise that the song is already breaking records.

@Chartdata tweeted out that the tune reached No. 1 in just three minutes to break the record on the US iTunes chart. Before Adele, the previous record-holder was Ariana Grande, whose song, “Positions,” hit No. 1 in under ten minutes. So far, iTunes or Apple has yet to confirm the new record.

The song also broke streaming records on Spotify.

Fun fact though…some of Adele’s closest friends weren’t really feeling this song when they first heard it. “I sent a snippet of me singing it as I was writing it to three of my closest friends here.” That’s what she told BCC 1 Radio Breakfast Show with Greg James in a recent interview. “And one didn’t like it, the other one was like, ‘Well, yeah, maybe, keep trying though,’ and the other one was, ‘I’m busy working.’ So that was the perfect response for me.”
