"L-O-V-E" is a song recorded by Nat King Cole for his album of the same name (1965). It was composed by Bert Kaempfert, with lyrics by Milt Gabler. The trumpet solo was performed by Bobby Bryant.[1] The song had previously appeared an instrumental track on Kaempfert's album Blue Midnight (1964).

Cole also recorded a version of "L-O-V-E" in a combination of Italian, French, Spanish, German and Japanese.

Cover versions

The song has been covered by several artists, including Dionne Warwick on The Windows of the World (1967),[2] Cole's daughter Natalie Cole on Unforgettable... with Love (1991),[3] and Michael Bublé on the special edition of Call Me Irresponsible (2007).[4]

English singer Joss Stone recorded a cover of "L-O-V-E" for the soundtrack to a short film for Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle fragrance, starring Keira Knightley and directed by Joe Wright, which debuted on September 24, 2007 on E!, Bravo, and VH1.[5] Stone's version was released digitally on September 18, 2007,[6] reaching number 100 on the UK Singles Chart and number seventy-five on the Swiss Singles Chart.[7][8] It was also later included as a bonus track on the deluxe version of her third album Introducing Joss Stone as well as her 2011 compilation album The Best of Joss Stone 2003-2009.

Stone performed a duet of the song with Natalie Cole at Frosted Pink, a benefit concert to raise awareness of women's cancer, which took place at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California on October 6, 2007 and aired on ABC on October 14.[9][10]
