Shortly after winning six Grammy Awards on Sunday (February 12) night, Adele told reporters in the press room that "it hasn't really sunk in," and in a just released interview and cover story with Vogue (which had been rumored late last year), she opened up about her pre-Grammys nerves and her hope that she would take home some Grammy gold for her chart-topping, record-breaking 21.

"I burst into tears when I found out," she told the magazine about her nominations. "And I would love, absolutely love, to win. This record is coming to an end, and that would be the final brick on it." (She eventually went on to sweep the show, winning the night's big prizes, Record of the Year and Album of the Year.)

On Sunday, she triumphantly returned to the stage to characteristically belt out her star-making breakup track, "Rolling in the Deep." And when she spoke to Vogue in late 2011 for the interview, she already knew that was the song she wanted to return with.

"I'm definitely going to be singing 'Rolling in the Deep,' " she teased. "Because that's been the biggest hit off the record in America. But I'm going to mix up a little bit — do a bit of a Beyoncé — to make it exciting. It's kind of my comeback, really. There are a lot of people who probably think that I'm never going to sing again. So I will come for them and kick their arses.

"I'm nervous whenever I perform," she continued. "But seeing that it will be the first time opening my mouth again onstage in front of my peers? I'm sh---in' myself."

In the press room on Sunday night, Adele shared that she thinks the ex that inspired 21 would be happy for her these days, and she teases in the magazine that she's done with heartbreak tracks for the time being. "Come on! I'm wifey material! I'm great. No one's got to be brave. It's not like, 'You f--- me over and I'm going to write a record and make you the most hated man in the world.' I am never writing a breakup record again, by the way," she said. "I'm done with being a bitter witch."
