No one is more surprised by the success of "Hello" than Adele.

In honor of her song and accompanying music video's tremendous success, the British mom gave fans the ultimate treat Thursday: an epic throwback photo. The 27-year-old singer shared the hilarious pic, in which she is a little girl missing all of her front teeth, on Twitter and thanked fans for their unwavering support.

"Throwing it way back with this! Thank you for all the love, I am so blown away. X #TBT," she tweeted.

Some kids might be embarrassed by a toothless smile, but not this one! Adele completely owns her missing-teeth look, putting on a massive ear-to-ear grin for all to see. She's easily missing four teeth in this photo, but she doesn't care because she probably knows she'll be breaking records in the future.

The music video for "Hello" has already bypassed Taylor Swift's "Bad Blood" and Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball." Not only is the emotional ballad a tearjerker in it of itself but the sepia-toned footage that pairs with it will make you cry all the tears, too.

Featuring Tristan Wilds from 90210 and The Wire, the video takes viewers through the ups and downs of a failed relationship. Cue the flashbacks from any of your own emotional trials and tribulations.

But unlike her other hits such as "Someone Like You" and "Set Fire to the Rain," "Hello" is not about a breakup.

"My last record was labeled a 'breakup record,' and rightly so, it was a breakup record, but this one is about how I feel as opposed to how someone else has made me feel," Adele said on SiriusXM.

"It's about how I've made myself feel. That's why it's a make-up record because I'm dealing with myself for the first time in my life. I'm dealing with my emotions, I'm dealing with my traits, I'm dealing with my habits and I'm trying to understand them and work them out, just so I could feel a bit lighter, really, and not be so confused by myself all the time."
