by Adele
I'll Be Waiting was written by Adele Adkins and Paul Epworth, written for Adele’s second studio album 21, released in 2011. I'll Be Waiting is an upbeat soul‑ and gospel‑influenced track that pairs energetic brass and rhythm section writing with lyrics about resilience and moving on from heartbreak. Though not issued as a worldwide single, it was noted by critics as a standout album track and has been performed by Adele in major live concerts, contributing to 21’s exceptional commercial and critical success.
