"Let There Be Love" is a song by English rock bandOasis from their sixth studio album,Don't Believe the Truth (2005).^[1] Written byNoel Gallagher, it is the fifth and the last Oasis song to featureLiam and Noel on lead vocals, the first being "Acquiesce" and the second being "Put Yer Money Where Yer Mouth Is", the third being "Born on a Different Cloud" and the fourth was the bands cover version of The Who's "My Generation". It was released on 28 November 2005 as the third and final single from the album in the United Kingdom and as the second single in the United States.

"Let There Be Love" reached number two on theUK Singles Chart and peaked atop theScottish Singles Chart. In Ireland, the song reached number 14, becoming the band's 21st top-20 single there. In Europe, the song reached number two in Italy but was a minor hit elsewhere, charting only in Germany and the Netherlands.

A Noel-sung demo for the track was recorded in 1999 during sessions forStanding on the Shoulder of Giants. A bootleg of these demo sessions was leaked onto the Internet in early 2000. This track was given the unofficial title "It's a Crime" on many bootlegs as the track was unknown and unreferenced anywhere before then. The album version of the song is structurally almost exactly the same as the demo with a slight change in melody in the part that Noel sings. The lyrics to the chorus remains intact, but the verses and bridge have totally rewritten lyrics. The single version of the song omits the second verse and chorus.

A second Noel-sung demo was released on the "Let There Be Love" DVD single. It has the same lyrics as the album version, and in fact the album version takes some elements from the demo such as the piano. It was probably recorded sometime in 2003 or 2004, prior to the mainDon't Believe the Truth recording sessions.

The video, directed by Baillie Walsh, is a montage of some of Oasis' live shows during the summer of 2005 including clips of the gigs atHampden Park and theCity of Manchester Stadium. The clips do not actually show the band playing 'Let There Be Love', as the band didn't play the song at either of these gigs. Later, the video clip appeared on their Don't Believe the Truth tour rockumentary,Lord Don't Slow Me Down.^[2]

The song has only been played live 5 times, the first three on London, and last two times on an Italian and Dutch radio shows in late 2005. However, both were acoustic performances featuring onlyNoel Gallagher. Oasis also performed the song on several television shows, such asBBC'sTop of the Pops, but these TV performances were done by playback, so the song was never actually performed live by the entire band.
