Many might assume that “Love In The Dark” is yet another ode to the relationship that most of 21 is based on, however, it’s far more likely that this is based on the rebound relationship she fell into before she met “her man,” around the release of 21.
Unlike the main inspiration for 21, who has repeatedly been forgiven by Adele, she rarely refers to this guy in anything less than venomous tones in interviews and live recordings.
This song reflects how she felt at the time. Although he gave her what she needed at the time, someone to love her and look after her in her heartbreak, their relationship isn’t meant to continue. Adele finds herself in an uncomfortable position, given her history of being the one doing the breaking up.
