When Adele does something, she does it right. The singer-songwriter predictably crushed it last week on Carpool Karaoke with James Corden on The Late Late Show, and after less than a week online, the video has become the most viral late night clip to hit the web since 2013.

That feat is even more impressive given precedent: The last late night video to go this viral was a trailer for Captain America: Civil War, debuted by Robert Downey, Jr. and Chris Evans on Jimmy Kimmel Live!. According to ListenFirst Digital Audience Ratings, Adele's Carpool Karaoke has been the most shared over platforms including Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr and YouTube (but not Twitter). The Late Late Show With James Corden was also the most highly-watched late night show during that week.

The highest-viewed Carpool Karaoke video is currently Justin Bieber's -- but if we know Adele, that won't be true for long.
