“Love on Top of Love” is a song by Jamaican-American singer, model, and actress Grace Jones, released in October 1989. The track was part of her album Bulletproof Heart. Known for her avant-garde style and boundary-pushing music, this song reflects Jones’ continued evolution as a dance and pop music icon during the late 1980s.
“Love on Top of Love” is a high-energy dance track that blends elements of house, funk, and pop. Produced by C+C Music Factory’s David Cole and Robert Clivillés, the song features pulsating beats, strong basslines, and electronic production typical of late 1980s dance music. Jones’ commanding vocals and confident delivery add to the song’s powerful and bold vibe, which is both rhythmic and edgy.
