Adele and Taylor Swift make up the duo of our dreams—can you just imagine Adele's soulful voice with Taylor's ultimate break-up anthem lyrics? We're still waiting for the day these two powerhouses officially team up, but until then, little did we know, we've already gotten the next best thing.
In a recent interview with NPR, Adele revealed that "Send My Love (To Your New Lover)" is totally Swift-inspired. Uh, what?!
“‘[I Knew You Were] Trouble’ came on the radio … I was like, ‘Who did this?’” she said. “I knew it was Taylor, and I’ve always loved her, but this is a totally other side—like, ‘I want to know who like brought that out in her.’”
Turns out, it was producer and songwriter Max Martin, and Adele wasn't stopping until she'd tracked him down. “[Martin] came to London, and I took my guitar along and was like, ‘I’ve got this riff,’ and then ‘Send My Love’ happened really quickly,” she said.
Give the song a listen—it's got all the catchiness we'd expect from a song inspired by T-Swift, and combined with Adele's gut-wrenchingly amazing voice? Pure magic.
