"Baby Love" is the name of a 1964 hit song recorded by The Supremes for the Motown label. Written and produced by Motown's main production team Holland_Dozier_Holland, "Baby Love," one of the most popular songs of the late 20th century, was the Supremes' most succesful single. It was the #1 song on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart for four weeks, from October 25, 1964 to November 21, 1964. It was also the second of five Supremes songs in a row to go #1 (the others are "Where Did Our Love Go," "Come See About Me," "Stop! In the Name of Love," and "Back in My Arms Again").


It is no small coincidence that "Baby Love" and its immediate predecessor, "Where Did Our Love Go," sound a lot alike: producers Holland_Dozier_Holland worked into the new song all of the elements that had made the previous song a big hit: Diana Ross' cooing lead vocal, Florence Ballard and Mary Wilson's "baby-baby" backup, the Funk Brothers' instrumental track, and teenager Mike Valvano's footstomping. H-D-H hoped they could make lightning strike twice and succeeded, as "Baby Love" was an even bigger hit than "Where Did Our Love Go."


"Baby Love" was included on the Supremes' second album, Where Did Our Love Go?.
