"Send My Love (To Your New Lover)" is a song by English singer Adele from her third studio album, 25 (2015). It was written by Adele, Max Martin and Shellback, while production was provided by the latter two. The song was released to digital formats on 16 May 2016 by XL Recordings as the third single from the album. XL then released the song to mainstream radio the following day. "Send My Love" is a pop song with an uptempo, rhythmic sound, with the singer describing it as a "happy you're gone" song dedicated to an ex-boyfriend.

"Send My Love" managed to appear on various international charts after the release of 25; following its release as a single, it peaked at number 5 in the UK, number 8 in the US and number 10 in Canada. An accompanying music video directed by Patrick Daughters premiered on 22 May 2016 at the 2016 Billboard Music Awards. It features Adele singing the song against a black backdrop with many shots of herself overlapping one another. The video received a nomination for Best Visual Effects at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards.

Adele first performed the song live for the first time at Joe's Pub during an iHeartRadio special in promotion of 25. "Send My Love (To Your New Lover)" is also part of the set list during Adele's third concert tour, Adele Live 2016, which visits countries across Europe and North America and was performed at Glastonbury 2016.

After Adele's unfruitful recording sessions with Ryan Tedder, they ended up feeling inspired and writing a track called "Remedy" during a session. Later, the pair went to lunch where she heard Taylor Swift's single "I Knew You Were Trouble" (2012) and instantly liked it. Tedder informed Adele that the song was produced by Max Martin, and sent her clips of his work. Shortly after this, Adele expressed interest in working with Martin, whom she never had heard before, and the two later met for a session. Adele began work on the track, reworking a skeleton of a song she had written when she was thirteen years old after being inspired by the release of Frank (2003) by Amy Winehouse. Martin came to London, Adele showed him the guitar riff she had and the duo finished the track on the guitar. About the collaboration, Adele commented: "Max Martin, I just could hang out with him forever. He's so beautiful and lovely and funny and generous and warm and caring. He's a really amazing man." She also stated that the track was "a bit of fun," expressing: "You ain't got to be dark all the time."
