"I Love I Hate" is a song by British singer and musician Neil Arthur, released in 1994 as the lead single from his debut solo album Suitcase.[1] It was written by Arthur and produced by Marius de Vries. It reached No. 50 in the UK and remained on the charts for two weeks.[2]

The song was recorded at Livingston Recording Studios.[3] For the single's 12" format releases, remixes were created by the English electronic dance group The Grid, with others by Dom T. and Marius de Vries.[4][5] A music video was filmed in Coney Island and New York City to promote the single.[6] It was directed by Lindy Heymann.[7]

Critical reception

Upon release, Music & Media wrote: "The ex-frontman of Blancmange returns at almost the same point where he left seven years ago. His synth-flavoured new wave of the early '80s is spiced up with dance beats."[8] Jim Lawn of The Lennox Herald commented: "Ex-Blancmange singer delivers a reasonable single with a nice hook and some radical dance remixes by The Grid."[9]

Penny Kiley of the Liverpool Echo commented: "The ex-Blancmange singer comes up with a pleasant electro-pop song that is less quirky than his previous work." She felt the inclusion of "Living on the Ceiling" as a bonus track on the CD issues of the single "suggests Neil may not be so confident in his new stuff".[10]

In an article on 1980s New Wave band comebacks, Keith Creighton of Popdose described the song as "positively epic".[11] Barry Page of The Electricity Club, in a feature titled "30 Lost Songs of the CD Era", considered the song to be "rather pedestrian" in comparison with Arthur's "engaging" debut single "One Day, One Time".[12]
