Adele in no hurry to release new album

Adele says she hopes to have a new song out by the end of the year, but a new album will take significantly longer.

"There will be a new song, probably coming out at the end of the year," she told French radio station NRJ.

"But then it depends how quickly I write some other new songs."

Asked when her third album is due for release, the 23-year-old singer said: "It won't be for a good two years."
