About This Track
“‘If You Don’t Love Me’ was among a batch I wrote in frustration in autumn of last year where I thought there should be nothing in the way of understanding the lyric. No interview needs to be done to explain concepts of Elvis Presley and the desert and all that stuff. Just give it to ‘em easy. If you strip away the disco-pop elements of ‘If You Don’t Love Me’, there’s an intimate ballad at the heart of it. When I wrote it, it was extremely personal, ‘cuz there are only words like ‘you’ and ‘I’ - direct, but not too specific. If I’m supposed to be good, surely I can write something that doesn’t need explanation.” - Creem, date unknown
Kylie Minogue recorded a cover version:
If You Don’t Love Me that was included in her 2001 album Hits+.

Johnnybosox19 Love Prefab Sprout, they are good.
-
dmen01 Kylie's version was interesting, but this song really suits an uptempo rhythm. This should have been a huge hit.

If you don't love me, I will know, and then I'll cry, and then I'll probably just mope around and sulk a bit, and then I'll go to the strip joint and pay some fluzy to make me feel better about myself...
