"Oh My God" comes from 30, Adele's fourth album, and Columbia sent it to American adult contemporary radio as the record's second single on 29 November 2021. She wrote it with Greg Kurstin, who produced it and plays most of it: bass, piano, keyboards, Hammond organ, percussion, even the handclaps. Chris Dave drums, Adele adds tambourine, and Serban Ghenea mixed.
It's a pop song shot through with R&B and topped with a dance-pop chorus, and it finds Adele ready to start dating again but keeping her guard up as something new begins. Critics mostly liked it, singling out the hooky production, and it went to number one in Israel and Mexico and top 10 in the UK, the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Sam Brown's video dresses her in designer clothes amid religious imagery.
