Adele has spoken — and girl does not want her album shuffled.

She revealed on Saturday via tweet that she asked Spotify to change the default setting from automatically shuffling an album to playing it straight through in time for the release of her new album 30, which was released last Friday.

She wrote, "We don't create albums with so much care and thought into our track listing for no reason. Our art tells a story and our stories should be listened to as we intended."

An account for the streaming service replied to Adele's tweet with "Anything for you."
