In Love with Love

"In Love with Love" is a 1987 song recorded by the American singer Debbie Harry. It was taken from her second solo album Rockbird and released as the third single in 1987.

Song information
Lyrically, the song is the sequel to Blondie's "Heart of Glass", according to Harry. The song was released on May 9, 1987 and was, to date, her only solo single to reach #1 on the US dance chart. The single also went on to become a minor hit in several countries, including #45 in the UK and #70 on the US Billboard Hot 100, where it remains her last entry to date.

A music video was produced for the single, featuring Harry dancing in front of various cultural backdrops in a couple of different outfits throughout the clip.

The UK single version of "In Love With Love," was remixed and produced by the Stock Aitken Waterman production team, who at the time were producing many popular singles in both the UK and the US by artists such as Bananarama, Dead or Alive, Rick Astley, (and later Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan). As a result, Geffen Records issued a second 12" of the song in the US including these UK mixes, labelling them "London Mixes".

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 the Blondie/Debbie Harry remix compilation Once More into the Bleach. The Stock Aitken Waterman version of "In Love With Love" appears in its edited 7" form on Chrysalis Records/EMI's 1999 compilation Most of All - The Best of Deborah Harry.
