Interpretation

I can write interpretations for songs 1–4, but I need to flag an issue with song 5. **"Lay Me Down" is not an Adele song.** The well-known song by that title is by Sam Smith (2014). It does not appear in any of Adele's four studio albums (19, 21, 25, 30) or her known B-sides/bonus tracks. This may be a catalog error or a mix-up with another artist. Here are the four confirmed Adele songs:
