"My Love" is a song performed by Petula Clark which, like most of her hits of the era, was written by Tony Hatch.
Hatch was on a flight from London to Los Angeles, where he was joining Clark to record a new album, and was putting the finishing touches on a tune entitled "The Life and Soul of the Party," which was to be included on the LP and released as a single. The American seated next to him inexplicably claimed the phrase had no meaning in the States, so Hatch quickly dashed off the lyrics to "My Love" before landing and set them to music soon after arrival.
Although she detested the song on first hearing, Clark was coaxed into recording it. Unhappy with the result, she begged Warner Bros. Records not to release it, but executives there ignored her pleas. Ironically, it went on to become her second US chart-topper (reaching Number One on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1966) and made Clark the first British female to have two number one singles in the US. It remains a staple of her concert repertoire to this day.
Clark also recorded the song in German ("Verzeih' die dummen Tränen"), French ("Mon amour"), and Italian ("L'amore e il vento"), making it a major international hit.
"My Love" is a love song by Paul McCartney and Wings, and is the most famous track on their 1973 album Red Rose Speedway. McCartney wrote it about his feelings for his wife Linda, who was also in the band. The song was released as a single in March 1973, reaching number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, knocking Edgar Winter's "Frankenstein" out of the top spot. By the end of June it was replaced by "Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)" by his former bandmate from The Beatles, George Harrison, at the top of the chart.
An orchestral version of this song was played when Monica and Chandler got married on the hit US sitcom Friends.
The song also appeared on the Wings compilation album Wings Greatest and the Paul McCartney compilation album All the Best!
"My Love" is a Pop/R&B/Rap song co-written by Justin Timberlake, T.I., Nate Hills and Timbaland for Timberlake's second studio album FutureSex/LoveSounds (2006). It won the 2007 Grammy Award for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration. The song was released as the album's second single, and achieved major success worldwide.
"My Love" was a single from Westlife's album, Coast to Coast.
It has been covered by the popular Arabic crooner Amr Diab, featuring Westlife vocals.
