"Love and Affection" is a song by Kittitian-English singer-songwriter Joan Armatrading. Her fourth single, and her third for A&M Records, it was her first chart success. It reached number 10 in the UK Singles Chart in November 1976. One of her best-known recordings, it has been described as a "deceptively feisty ballad ... an instant classic." It appeared on her eponymous third album. The song has twice been used as the title track of compilation albums, for 1999's Love and Affection: The Best of Joan Armatrading and 2003's Love and Affection: Classics 1975–1983.
In 1990 American singer Sinitta covered "Love and Affection". It was produced by Barry Anthony Andrews and released as a non-album single. The single peaked at number 62 in the UK.
Critical reception
David Giles from Music Week wrote, "Dance interpretation of the Joan Armatrading classic that works well, if only because it adapts the original rather more cleverly into dancefloor mode than the recent Loving You did. Enormous hit potential here."
