She continued, 'While I truly wish I could have done more for her toward the latter years of her career and shared in her frustration as she so wanted to make the leap from a triple threat American icon to screenwriter/director - her wish, never realized was to have three original western scripts produced. In a statement, she said, 'It was an honor and a privilege to have worked with Stella who was one of the most wonderful and gifted people I have ever worked with.' Maria Calabrese, Stevens' manager and friend, confirmed Stevens' death to. Her son, actor Andrew Stevens, confirmed to the outlet the cause of death was Alzheimer’s disease. The New York Times reported that Stevens died on Friday, Feb. He previously inspired one other track, “One and Only”.Stella Stevens, an actor well known for her roles in several 1960s and '70s films, has died at age 84. The song is directed toward the guy Adele dated between the subject of much of 21, and her husband, Simon Konecki. (Given that a lot of the songs on this album are about nostalgia for childhood and the past.) Otherwise, you might as well just call the fucking album Old. This song was originally titled “We Ain’t Kids No More,” but at the last minute, at the encouragement of her manager, Adele decided to change it. It was listening to Taylor Swift with songwriter Ryan Tedder that led her to discover their prominence in the pop landscape. Prior to this record, however, Adele hadn’t heard of Max Martin or Shellback. This is a more upbeat, straight-pop record for Adele, which makes sense considering the super producers behind the sound. With Max Martin and Shellback, we knocked that out in a day.

I used to cover ‘Wonderful World’ doing that riff. I’ve had that guitar bass line since I was, like, 15.

Adele wrote “Send My Love (To Your New Lover)” in collaboration with Max Martin and Shellback for her third album 25.Īdele played guitar on the record, and it was this riff that began the song.
