"Love Comes" is a song recorded by British girl group Bananarama. It was released on 6 September 2009 as the lead single from their tenth studio album Viva. The single reached number 44 on the UK Singles Chart.

Background

The song was written by Bananarama members Sara Dallin and Keren Woodward and producer Ian Masterson.[3] The B-side for the CD single is a new version of their 1983 hit "Cruel Summer", while the B-side tracks for the vinyl editions are cover versions.

The song is the first single in the group's career where the members performed solo sections rather than harmonising as a group.

Music video

A music video for "Love Comes" was shot in London on 1 July 2009.[3] The video features Dallin and Woodward in various retro outfits, and has both outdoor and studio settings. The theme of the video is a reflection on various fashion magazines and trends, with each scene intended to be a different 'glamour shot'. The song lyrics are projected onto backgrounds, and onto the girls themselves in most of the scenes.
