"Love Is Like Oxygen" is a song by the British band Sweet and released in January 1978.

It was co-written by the group's guitarist Andy Scott, and Trevor Griffin, a musician who had played with various unsuccessful bands before becoming a roadie and sound engineer.

Their first release on the Polydor label after their departure from RCA, it was also their last Top 10 hit, reaching No.

The song is frequently included on greatest hits compilations, usually in its edited single version.
