We All Need Love (song)

"We All Need Love" is a song by Italian Eurodance group Double You, released as the second single from their debut album, We All Need Love (1992). As the follow-up to the group's cover version of "Please Don't Go", it confirmed the worldwide success of Double You. Produced by Robyx Zanetti, it peaked at number-one in Belgium and became a top-10 hit in Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Switzerland. There were various formats, including many remixes. The accompanying music video was directed by Italian director Giacomo De Simone, who has directed music videos for many other Eurodance acts, like Corona, Ice MC and Whigfield. "We All Need Love" was originally written and recorded by Canadian rock musician Domenic Troiano in 1979. It had also been covered by the Australian band Ebony in 1983, and by Karen J. Ann in 1988.

Critical reception

Larry Flick from Billboard magazine commented, "After a mediocre showing in the 'Please Don't Go' battle against KWS, Italo-pop/house act lunges for crossover radio approval with a cute, retro-minded disco twirler. An anthemic chorus and old-fashioned string and piano fills give the song charm." Andy Beevers from Music Week complimented the song as "great", adding that "it has a very similar organ-driven poppy disco sound and should give them the success they deserve."
