"In Love with Love" is a 1987 song recorded by theAmerican singerDebbie Harry. It was taken from her second solo albumRockbird and released as the third single in 1987.
Lyrically, the song is the sequel to Blondie's "Heart of Glass", according to Harry.[citation needed] The single version (dubbed the "London Remix") differs significantly from the LP cut, and was remixed by theStock Aitken Waterman production team, who at the time were producing many popular singles in both the UK and the US by artists such asBananarama,Dead or Alive,Rick Astley, (and laterKylie Minogue andJason Donovan).[3] According to producerMike Stock, the track was completely re-recorded from the album version, including a new vocal recorded in London.[3] However, all versions of the single creditSeth Justman (who produced the album version) as producer; Stock Aitken Waterman are credited with 'additional production'.
The song was released on May 9, 1987 and was, to date, Harry's only solo single to reach #1 on theUS dance chart.[4] The single also went on to become a minor hit in several countries, including #45 in theUK and #70 on the USBillboard Hot 100, where it remains her last entry to date.
Amusic video was produced for the single, featuring Harry dancing in front of various cultural backdrops in a couple of different outfits throughout the clip.
In 1988, both the US "Heart Of Fire Mix" of "In Love With Love" and the French-language version of "French Kissin' In The USA" were included on theBlondie/Debbie Harry remix compilationOnce More into the Bleach. The Stock Aitken Waterman version of "In Love With Love" appears in its edited 7" form onChrysalis Records/EMI's 1999 compilationMost of All - The Best of Deborah Harry.
