Show Me Love (Robyn song)

"Show Me Love" is a song by Swedish pop singer Robyn. It was released in October 1997 as a single from her debut album, Robyn Is Here. The song is her fourth Swedish, third UK and second US single. The song is sometimes confused with Robin S.'s 1993 hit "Show Me Love" because of identical song titles and similar first names; however, the two songs are not related.

History

In her home country, "Show Me Love" became Robyn's fourth hit, peaking at number 14, lower than "Do You Know (What It Takes)" and "Do You Really Want Me (Show Respect)", which both went top 10.

In the US, the single peaked at number seven, her second consecutive top 10 hit there. In the UK, "Show Me Love" became Robyn's first of two top 20 hits from Robyn Is Here and her first top 10 hit, peaking at number eight. In December 1997 the single received a Gold certification from the RIAA in recognition of 500,000 copies sold in the US. It was Robyn's last Top 10 and remains her last charting single on the Hot 100 to date.

Background and promotion

On 9 September 2013, The Wanted uploaded a "Special Announcement" to their official YouTube page. They announced that, due to extra recording, Word of Mouth would not be released until 4 November, but, to make up for it, they announced the release of a brand new single called "Show Me Love (America)" and said it would be on the radio from 8am the following morning. They also revealed this on Twitter. It was later announced that the song would receive its world premiere on Capital FM the following morning.

On 27 October 2013, The Wanted performed "Show Me Love (America)" on the third live results show of The X Factor. They shelled out £250,000 for a private jet to get them from Mexico to The Fountain Studios in London.
