About Mad Love

"Mad Love" is a song by English singer Mabel from her debut studio album, High Expectations (2019). She wrote the song with Camille Purcell and its producer Steve Mac, wanting to express mutual attraction in a simple way. It is an electropop track with bouncy synths, a quiet-loud dynamic and repetitive chorus hook. The song was released by Polydor Records on 7 June 2019 as the album's second single and received generally positive reviews from music critics. "Mad Love" peaked at number eight on the UK Singles Chart, making it Mabel's third single to reach the top 10 in the UK. It also charted in the top 10 in Ireland and Poland, and the top 40 in Greece, Lithuania and the Netherlands. The accompanying music video, directed by Marc Klasfeld, shows the singer performing choreography with a float of dancers.

Mabel wrote "Mad Love" with Camille Purcell and Steve Mac during their first writing session together after writing her previous single "Don't Call Me Up" (2019). Due to busy schedules, they had to set aside a day when they could all attend the writing session. The singer recalls that there was "something positive in the air" because of her intention to eschew her tendency to write intense breakup songs in favour of "a happy one about that fun moment when you meet somebody and you're just into each other.
