"Crashed Into Love" is a song by English new wave band Spandau Ballet, released as the fourth single from their 1989 album Heart Like a Sky. It was poorly received and became their fourth consecutive single that failed to make the top 40 in the UK.
Background
In October 1987 Spandau Ballet lead guitarist and songwriter Gary Kemp serendipitously reconnected with actress Sadie Frost, who had appeared in the band's videos for "Gold" and "Fight for Ourselves". He began a romance with her that replaced his tendency to be cautious with a devil-may-care attitude. The newfound freedom he felt as a result of the relationship recharged his desire to write again, which lead to several songs for their 1989 album Heart Like a Sky, including "Crashed Into Love".
The music video for "Crashed Into Love" was filmed in Los Angeles.
Commercial performance
"Crashed Into Love" debuted on the UK Singles Chart on 24 February 1990 in its peak position at number 96. It also reached number 28 in Italy.
Critical reception
In his review of the single, Phil Cheeseman of Record Mirror wrote, "No matter how they slipped up on their last record or perhaps, with hindsight, didn't release the best version, they always manage to create a new record even more unspeakable."
