Crazy Love (CeCe Peniston song)

"Crazy Love" is a song by American musician CeCe Peniston, released on her debut album, Finally (1992) on A&M Records. It is written by George Lyter, Michael O'Hara and Denise Rich, and produced by Daniel Abraham. The title was first issued in the UK as the fourth single from the album, peaking at number forty-four, while in the US (released as her fifth solo single), it reached number thirty-one on the R&B chart in February 1993 after its peak at number ninety-seven on the Billboard Hot 100.

Critical reception

Craig Lytle from AllMusic described the song as "a midtempo number with an alluring chorus melody enhanced by a brisk string arrangement." Larry Flick from Billboard magazine wrote, "Here's yet another gem from CeCe's sparkling, unstoppable debut album, Finally. A sultry, swing beat is first refashioned with raw hip-hop beats, then transformed into a spirited house romp. All the while, CeCe belts with an assurance reminiscent of Teena Marie." He added that the right edit "could reignite pop and urban radio fires." Randy Clark from Cashbox said it's "a sexy, easy groovin', mid-tempo dance track with almost as many lives as a cat".
