This Love (Bad Company song)

"This Love" is a rock ballad performed by the British rock band Bad Company. It appeared on their 1986 album, Fame and Fortune.

The song is notable for its departure from the band's signature hard rock sound, leaning more towards a soft rock or AOR (Album-Oriented Rock) style. It features a prominent keyboard arrangement and a more polished production than their earlier work.

"This Love" was released as a single from Fame and Fortune, but it did not achieve significant commercial success, failing to reach the same chart heights as some of Bad Company's previous hits. While the album itself was a commercial disappointment compared to their earlier successes, "This Love" remains a relatively well-known track among Bad Company fans, often considered a memorable, albeit different, offering from the band's discography. The song is written by Brian Howe and Simon Kirke. Howe, who replaced Paul Rodgers as the band's vocalist, brought a different vocal style to the band, further contributing to the song's distinctive sound.
