Adele’s conversations with her son incorporated in the song are conversations the singer recorded following the advice of a psychiatrist during the process of healing after the divorce. Baby Angelo’s voice is sweet and his innocent questions seem to pierce the mother’s heart, making the listener’s heart break.

“Tell mom you love her!”, Adele said to her son. The boy replied: “I love you a million percent… I feel like you don’t love me” – “Why do I feel like that?” – “Mom, do you really love me?” – “You know I don’t love anyone as much as I love you, right?”.

Adele explains to her son about her changes: “I’ve been having intense emotions lately” – “How is it, Mom?” – “It’s just… my emotions are stuck. I feel confused” – “Why?” – “I don’t know. It’s like I don’t really know what I’m doing” – “Everything?” – “Everything”…

Amid sobbing lyrics and melodies, Adele told Angelo: “I love your father because he brought you to me. You are half of me and half of dad.”

Adele ends the song with a long recording of her sad confessions to a friend. There, Adele expressed her complex emotions – loneliness, confusion and pain – while sobbing. “I’m having a really bad day. I’m having an anxious day. I feel confused, stressed. The hangover from drinking doesn’t help. This is the first day since leaving him I feel lonely… Today I just want to stay home and watch TV, curled up in a blanket, sweaty and really alone. I feel a little scared, that feeling comes back again and again time”.

Adele once shared in Vogue magazine in October that the compositions in album 30 are her explanation to her son about her decision to leave his father to find his own happiness. My Little Love is a song that contains all those thoughts. “The boy had a lot of simple questions that I couldn’t answer because I didn’t know how to explain them. Like: ‘Why can’t we all live together anymore?’, ‘Why doesn’t mom love me? dad too?’… I just feel like explaining to Angelo through this album, when he is 20 or 30 years old, he will understand why his mother destroyed his quiet life to pursue his own happiness.” , Adele confided.

Many viewers wrote that they cried when listening to My Little Love. Not only does it make divorced mothers like Adele sob because of their similar feelings, the song touches the hearts of many young people:

“As someone whose parents are divorcing, it breaks my heart to see my mother’s heart broken. I hope we can get through this together and that she can count on me. This song really describes what my mother is going through, a single mother who is overwhelmed with emotions and still takes care of me every day. I love you so much, thank you Adele for writing this song.”

“I’m a mother of two who just came out of a broken hearted marriage. To find a song that expressed my heartbreak for my children was overwhelming. This was a gift. Thank you Adele”.

“I cried and cried so much when I heard this song. I can’t imagine how much courage Adele must have to confess this way. Adele, my dear woman, I don’t know you but hear you sing, my heart breaks. You are truly courageous.”

“This is my favorite song on the album 30. Hearing Adele talk to her son is so sweet and heartwarming. We all have days where we feel helpless and don’t know what we’re doing.” but we can get through it. The song makes me love her even more”…
