Send My Love (To Your New Lover) by Adele talks about moving on and forgiveness after the end of a relationship. It was inspired by Adeles own love experiences and represents a more upbeat and liberating tone, differing from her other, more melancholic works. The collaboration with Max Martin and Shellback in the production marked a move towards a more pop and contemporary sound.
