Love Songs is the debut studio album by actress and recording artist Jennifer Love Hewitt, released only in Japan on March 21, 1992 by Meldac and distributed by Nippon Crown.

## Background

Jennifer Love Hewitt recorded a cover version of the Blondie song "Heart of Glass" as a single for release only in Japan. However, that song was not included in the final track list for this album. Production of Love Songs began in 1991. The first single released from the album was a cover of the ABBA song "Dancing Queen", on June 21, 1991. The second single, "What's It Gonna Take", was released that November. The third and final single, "Please Save Us the World", was released in 1992. A music video for "Please Save Us the World" was made as part of a United Nations charity effort.
