Million Years Ago

"Million Years Ago" by Adele appears on her 2015 album 25 and was co-written with producer Greg Kurstin. Lyrically, it reflects on how fame has changed her life and relationships, inspired in part by revisiting Brockwell Park in South London where she spent much of her youth. Musically, the track is built entirely on acoustic guitar, making it an excellent piece for guitarists to study intimate fingerpicking or chord-melody arrangements without competing instrumentation.

  • The entire backing track is a solo acoustic guitar — no bass, drums, or additional instruments to cover any mistakes.
  • Co-writer Greg Kurstin is a Grammy-winning producer known for working with major pop artists across multiple genres.
  • The song was performed live on Adele at the BBC in 2015, where Adele personally explained its emotional and geographic inspiration.
