"Love Comes Quickly" is a song by English synth-pop duo Pet Shop Boys, released as the second single from their debut studio album, Please (1986).

[3] "Love Comes Quickly" was written by Chris Lowe and Neil Tennant in early 1985,[4] near the end of their time at Ray Roberts' Camden studio where they'd done much of their work.

[5] "Love Comes Quickly" features handclaps, inspired by Sharon Redd's "Never Give You Up" (1982), and the first appearance of a high string line,[5] which became a trademark of their songs.

[13] In a contemporary review for Billboard's "Dance Trax" column, Brian Chin wrote that "Pet Shop Boys' "Love Comes Quickly" (Parlophone U.K.) is even more a tribute to drifting Italian disco-pop than the team's current hit.

[16] Pet Shop Boys performed "Love Comes Quickly", along with "West End Girls", at the 1986 MTV Video Music Awards, accompanied by singer Ava Cherry.
