# 10 – Sweetest Devotion
The first song on our Top 10 Adele Love Songs list is “Sweetest Devotion” from album 25. The song has a pop sound. “Sweetest Devotion” covers a different type of love. Love doesn’t always have to be between couples. You can also express your love for your family. In this case, that’s what Adele did. The devotional (no pun intended) song talks about the love a mother has for her son. She adores her son and will do anything for him. She goes into detail about the things she will do for her son. She will be anything he wants her to be. She will be devoted to him.
The lyrics are universal. Adele doesn’t specifically state that this song is about her son. If she didn’t say the song was about her son, it could have been about someone she was dating. Adele has become synonymous with singing angry jams so this song was a nice change for her. She proved she can sing about the positive side of love. She doesn’t have to be angry or bitter all the time. If you want to use this song to dedicate to your lover, you can let Adele’s poetic lyrics touch your partner’s heart. This song is also great for listeners who want to dedicate a song to their children or anyone else they love.
# 9 – Remedy
The next song on our Top 10 Adele Love Songs list is “Remedy” from the album 25. The track has a pop beat. “Remedy” is a maternal love song. This is another track that Adele wanted to write to express her love for her son. She expresses how she wants to be there when the world tries to bring you down. She doesn’t want her son to be alone. He will always have someone in his corner so he will never be alone. The informative song talks about someone you love always having your back. Adele doesn’t coddle her son. She lets him know that things will be cruel, but she will be by his side.
The piano ballad is guaranteed to make you feel emotional. Ryan Tedder and Adele wrote a marvelous song about being there for someone you love. You can feel the emotions while Ryan Tedder is playing, and Adele is singing. The song is a perfect way to describe how you will be there for someone you love no matter what happens in their lives. If you consider yourself a “remedy” for someone, this is the song for you. You can feel Adele’s sincerity while she’s singing the lyrics. This jam is the type of love song you want to hear when you are in your feelings.

She will do what she can to make him feel her love. She goes into detail about what she will do to prove that she loves him. If he has to cry, she will wipe his tears away. She’s willing to hold him if he needs to be held. She promises she won’t do anything to betray him. She knew the moment she met him that they would be together. She promises to make him happy.
She will make his dreams come true. These are the words that people long to hear from the people they love. Adele didn’t write this song, but she was able to capture the essence of the song in a very different fashion from Bob Dylan’s original version. She embraced the lyrics as if she wrote them herself. This song is tailor made for anyone who longs to be with the person they love. Adele can serenade you as you spend time with the person you love. Let her beautiful voice be part of your romantic evening.
# 7 – All Night Parking
“All Night Parking” is from her album entitled 30. The song has a pop and soul sound. The hopeful song talks about moving on after a breakup. She had a bad relationship that she ended. She didn’t think she would fall in love again after dealing with heartache. It turns out that she was wrong. She was able to move on with a new man. She talks about being infatuated with him. This song is about trying to move on after a tumultuous relationship. If you are dealing with moving on after a divorce, you know what she’s talking about in this song. She’s excited about the new man in her life. She wants to get home so she can dream about him.
This optimistic song will give you hope that you can find love again. No matter how badly you have been hurt in the past, there’s still a chance you will find someone who loves you. Adele wasn’t the most pleasant person to her new love, but he fell for her. She lowered the walls so she can be open for new love. She’s usually best when she’s by herself, but he was able to change that for her. He opened her eyes to love. Adele’s smoky vocals are like magic against the backdrop of Errol Garner’s piano sample. This is the type of song you will listen to if you are looking for love after a bad breakup.
# 6 – Oh My God
“Oh My God” is from the album entitled 30. The song has a pop beat. The vulnerable song is about a woman who deals with a bad breakup (does this sound like anyone else we know?) and she’s ready to take the leap of faith and move on with someone new. The new man is exactly who our diva is looking for in her life. He gives her good love and it makes her want to go back to him. She wants to go back, but she’s scared to take a chance. She was hurt before, and she’s guarded because she believes it will happen again. She went through a lot when she broke up with her husband. She knows she shouldn’t be with the new guy, but it feels too right for her.
People think she’s wrong for moving on with her new man, but she doesn’t care what they think. She wants to be with him. He makes her feel too good to give him up. This is for anyone who has gotten out of a relationship and is hesitant to move on from it. Take Adele’s advice and take a chance at love. You might not regret it if you take the leap of faith. People may not understand it, but it’s not for them to understand. This song will teach you that. You can find new love if you leave yourself open for it. Adele would rather be a fool than be left behind. You can’t argue with that logic.
# 5 – Crazy for You
The next song on our Top 10 Adele Love Songs list is “Crazy for You” is from the album entitled 19. The track has a jazz beat. The lovable song is about a woman who is enamored with her man. Adele is willing to do anything for him because she loves him. She’s crazy for him. He can ask her to do anything, and she will do it. He has that much of a hold on her heart because she wants to do everything to make him happy. She is completely in love with this man. This song shouldn’t be confused with Madonna’s “Crazy for You.” The songs are about cherishing love, but they are different from each other.
The adoring song is about her feelings for her man. This song stands out because it’s one of the only loving songs on the album. She was bitter when she recorded the album, but she made room for this romantic jam. She wanted a nice song for this album and that’s the balance the album needed.

# 4 – Lovesong
“Lovesong” is from the album entitled 21. The song has a soul sound. This touching track is about the way a man makes her feel when she’s with him. She can be miles away, but she still wants to be around her man. She will love him no matter where they are. She could be in another state or country, and she will love her man. This tale is an intimate song about how far your love will go for another person. She feels at home when she’s alone with her man. The man in her life makes her feel like she’s the only person who matters. He makes her feel like he completes her.
Adele took a chance by covering a song by The Cure. The band The Cure recorded this song from a man’s point of view. She took the song to another level. She recorded it from a woman’s standpoint. The Cure’s version is a rock song while Adele slowed it down and made it a soulful ballad. Both songs will have you in your feelings because of the theme. Adele’s quieter version subjectively makes the song more intimate. If you want to express your feelings to your lover, you can use Adele as your guide. This song is excellent for people who are addicted to each other.
# 3 – One and Only
“One and Only” is from the album entitled 21. The song has a soul beat. “One and Only” is a story about unrequited love. Love songs don’t have to be about getting the person you want. You can also adore from afar and that’s what happens in this ballad. She loves a man, and she believes he loves her too. They have feelings for each other, but they don’t express them. They were scared to tell each other that they loved each other. This happens all the time especially when you fall in love for the first time. You might be too scared to admit that you have a crush on someone even though your heart races when you see the person you love.
The powerful ballad will make you think about past loves that you may have let go because you were afraid to admit your feelings. Adele wants to remind you how it feels to have a crush on someone who shares the same feelings you do. Love is a great thing, but it can be scary if you don’t have the courage to admit how you feel. This haunting ballad may bring those feelings back to the surface for you. Adele’s smoky vocals will touch your heart as she is declaring her love for the man she may never have. She’s convincing as she tells him everything she would do if he were hers. She may strike a chord with people who are in the same boat. You may find yourself agreeing with everything she says.

![Rob De Luca of Spread Eagle, Sebastian Bach & UFO: 10 Albums That Changed My Life From humble East Coast origins to grandest stages worldwide, veteran bassist Rob De Luca has seen and done it all. De Luca first hit the local Boston rock and metal scene in the late 80s after meeting guitarist Paul DiBartolo, bonding over Van Halen before forming Bang. Regional success came quickly, but eventually, the members of Bang went their separate ways, with De Luca and drummer Tommi Gallo heading to NYC and hooking up with Ray West and, later, DiBartolo to form Spread Eagle. By 1990, Spread Eagle was on the fast track, with a contract through MCA Records and a self-titled debut album poised to crush skulls. But poor timing and MCA's sad indifference left Spead Eagle out in the cold despite being a hard-boiled answer to Guns N' Roses's West Coast sleaze. Spread Eagle's first chapter came to an end in '95. As for Rob De Luca, his nimble fingers and gift for melody and songwriting kept him moving forward. Soon, he found a gig with former Skid Row frontman Sebastian Bach and the legendary outfit UFO. And in 2010, after coupling up with Ray West and his cousin Rik De Luca, Spread Eagle retook flight. During a break from Spread Eagle's increasingly busy touring schedule, Rob De Luca dialed in with ClassicRockHistory.com to run through the ten albums that changed his life. But only after adding, "I made a playlist of these songs, including some I've written or co-written. Do you hear any of these albums' influence on me?" Listen here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3LWJuhDrE8JmzhsmTeIDUq 10) Gentlemen by Afghan Whigs (1993) Here's an entry that was so important to me. This may be the darkest break-up album of all time. Greg Dulli has been in many projects, but I feel Gentlemen is his zenith. Somewhat undefinable at times but always profound and honest. Listen to "Gentlemen," "Fountain and Fairfax," and "What Jail Is Like." 9) In on the Kill Taker by Fugazi (1993) By this time, I had been sucked in and spit out by the major-label record industry. Glam came and went; grunge was history, too. I was searching for new sounds. When I heard Fugazi's twin guitar approach, I knew this was what was missing. Fugazi may be considered a less polished sound than the albums above; however, once you "get it," it hits you like a ton of bricks, and there's no going back. From the moment I heard Fugazi, I went to every NYC show after. It's easily some of the best concerts of my life, and possibly my favorite bassist in Joe Lally. And their DIY ethics refused to charge us more than $5 a show! In on the Kill Taker is a powerful album demonstrated in songs such as "Smallpox Champion," "Great Cop," and "Public Witness Program." 8) Appetite for Destruction by Guns N' Roses (1987) I discovered many of these albums (sometimes long) after they were released. However, I was at the right place at the right time for this one. Steve Ostromogilsky had a Berklee College of Music lunch card and used to sneak out sandwiches for me. One day, he invited me to hang out at his place and listen to music. As we got off the train, he put Sony Walkman headphones on my ears and said, "Hey, check out this brand-new group." A song like "It's So Easy" was so different from the popular Sunset Strip sound at that time. Me and about 499 other informed rockers were lucky enough to see them on their first East Coast tour at the sold-out Paradise on Commonwealth Avenue, Boston (the same street Aerosmith started on). I saw Gn'R every tour after until I took a break when Buckethead joined. Gn'R is the band I've been lucky enough to see the most times live, almost 100! Everyone on this album is just stellar. Axl [Rose] had the tones, power, melodic sensibilities, and foresight to do what no other singer did then. Slash's playing was beyond memorable. Duff [McKagan] is one of the most underrated bassists in rock history, and learning his Appetite basslines is a masterclass. Steven [Adler] had the natural swing, and Izzy [Stradlin] was the secret weapon songwriter. Everything that's been heralded about this gem is deserved and true. Check out "It's So Easy," "Out Ta Get Me," and "Mr. Brownstone.' 7) Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd (1975) Another contender for my favorite album and band of all time. Using The Beatles machine (same recording studio, engineer, record label), Pink Floyd made what I feel is their strongest, most cohesive album (my second favorite of theirs would be Animals). This list mainly consists of bands with an instantly recognizable sound. Floyd is certainly no exception to that! This album included a solid handful of undeniable rock radio classics, bookended by two halves of the mind-blowing song "Shine on You Crazy Diamond.' That song was written about former band member and founder Syd Barrett. It would be hard to live in a world without this album. Check out "Welcome to The Machine," "Shine on You Crazy Diamond (parts 6-9),' or even better yet, listen to the whole thing in one sitting! 6) Decade by Neil Young (1977) About this time, I started playing guitar. As a beginner, it was comfortable jamming to this album because the chord changes were simple—a great "first ten years" retrospective of Neil's stunning, unique songwriting. Neil is a treasure who always writes from the heart and stands up for what's right. Check out "Southern Man," "A Man Needs a Maid," "Down by The River," and "After the Goldrush." 5) Highway to Hell by AC/DC (1979) When I heard this album, I was firmly "me." My life would be 100% focused on hard rock music forever. AC/DC are like air; they're ubiquitous. Everyone knows them and their incredible songs. However, as a young teen in Wilmington, Delaware, I only had WMMR 93.3 FM Philadelphia and a few friends to inform me about the world of Rock outside my bedroom. AC/DC had not gone mainstream, and their albums were available primarily in the USA as imports. To put things more in perspective, I only knew two people in the world who had heard of AC/DC. A friend had an import that we played in Steve Buckley's basement, which sounded ripping. When Highway to Hell was released, WMMR started spinning the title track, and I immediately bought the album, listening to it every single day after school. Then WMMR announced AC/DC was coming to the Spectrum in Philly, supporting Ted Nugent! I liked Ted but loved AC/DC, so my good friend Mick Cummins and I bought tickets, and he drove us up to the Spectrum (where we saw most of our concerts). Bon Scott was in fine form, and the band went over great. Although the crowd knew Ted better, Angus [Young] wouldn't let anyone upstage him. I'll never forget it! Unfortunately, Bon would be gone in 6 months. Check out "Walk All Over You," "Touch Too Much," "Shot Down in Flames," and "If You Want Blood (You Got It)." 4) Toys in the Attic by Aerosmith (1975) By the time I heard this, I was now in my teens. I had a childhood friend up the street, Jim Linberg (we're still good buddies). His older sister had a great album collection, including Toys in The Attic. Once I heard that groove, my taste changed. I lost interest in rock music that didn't have some sort of "swing" feel to it. I think Rocks is a slightly better Aerosmith album (and possibly my favorite album of all time), but both are perfect or very close. Check out "Uncle Salty," "Adam's Apple," "No More No More," "Round and Round," and "You See Me Crying." 3) Alive! by Kiss (1975) When I was still a little kid, I asked for Cheech and Chong's Up in Smoke album for Christmas. The entire family came over for an enormous feast, and I dropped the needle. When my mother heard the content, she turned off the album and said I had to exchange it. My mom was cool, but I was young and knew much more about life than she suspected. Anyway, the next day, she drove me back to the store. In the music section, promoted on an "endcap" was a Kiss Alive! display. I had never heard of Kiss, but that cover picture told me I had to have it! My first foray into hard rock. Check out “Strutter.” I went through my Kiss phase very quickly, I believe in a matter of months because I discovered the previous entry, Aerosmith's Toys in the Attic. 2) Honky Chateau by Elton John (1972) When I was a wee lad, my parents bought a used Volkswagen camper van from my uncle Ozzie. My favorite Elton John album is Yellow Brick Road, but Honky Chateau is great and easily one of his best. It sent me down a lifelong rabbit hole of loving everything about the 1970s partnership between Elton and lyricist Bernie Taupin. The simple beauty of voice, the master songwriting, the perfect backing band, the clear, unobtrusive recordings, and always Bernie's incredible lyrics. The day this album was released, Elton became an unstoppable force that conquered the music industry. Check out "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters" and "Rocket Man." 1) Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles (1967) Another tape that was included in the VW Camper. The van had a bunch of music tapes, and one was Sgt Pepper. I was too young to understand the sophistication of the music, but that was one of the many skills of The Beatles. They attracted listeners at every level, even little kids. I still feel that immediate connection to Sgt Pepper; now, I hear so much more. It's an album that changed the world and the world of music. Check out "Lucy in The Sky with Diamonds," "A Day In The Life," and "Fixing a Hole."](http://www.classicrockhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Shutterstock_1815495569-1-300x200.jpg)
