      Background


      "Let There Be Love" is an English language cover of the German song "Liebe ist alles" by German pop duo Rosenstolz from their 2004 Herz. Originally written by band members Peter Plate and AnNa R. along with Ulf Leo Sommer, the English lyrics for "Let There Be Love" were penned by Norwegian singer Hanne Sørvaag. The song was unknown to Melanie C until Plate sent a demo version to her. He asked her if she could create an English version of his biggest hit and invited her to Berlin. The singer called recording the song "a big challenge! I think the English translation turned out really well, too. And I hope that his German fans will like our version, because it is obviously very different from the original."


      Music video


      A music video for "Let There Be Love" was directed by Marcus Gerwinat and filmed during a sunny autumn day on Brighton's seafront. The visuals depitcts Melanie on a street along the beach (a homage to her album The Sea, and also where the album was recorded). The visuals also feature different couples kissing and cuddling with each other, at various different places near the beach and Brighton Pier. As Melanie sings, the names of couples appear to be written onto a wall she is singing in front of.
