Edit
Adele's version of "If It Hadn't Been For Love" is 3 minutes and 8 seconds long. The song was written by Michael Henderson and Christopher Stapleton. [1] Originally recorded by The SteelDrivers, it was featured on their 2008 self-titled LP. [2]
ReleaseEdit
The song served as the B-Side to Adele's Grammy-winning single "Rolling in the Deep". It was rumored to be released as the B-Side to "Someone Like You", although various live performances of "Someone Like You" were released instead as the song's B-Side.
"If It Hadn't Been for Love" was the least successful of the three bonus tracks from the various international editions of 21. It was not as popular amongst fans either, despite being the only bonus track to be performed during her Adele Live tour.
