Love Steals Us from Loneliness

"Love Steals Us from Loneliness" is a song by Scottish rock band Idlewild, from their fourth studio album, Warnings/Promises (2005).

It was released as the lead single from the album on 21 February 2005 and charted at number 16 on the UK Singles Chart and number 37 in Ireland.

Under the Influence: The Songs That Inspired My Chemical Romance, as My Chemical Romance had cited Idlewild, and more explicitly "Love Steals Us from Loneliness", as a major influence.

According to Colin Newton, the band was not: "intending to release any singles at all from this record to start with.

It was like a grudging truce between ourselves and the record company to put out "Love Steals Us From Loneliness" as the first single from Warnings/Promises, although with hindsight I guess that was the most obvious choice and perfectly bridges where we were with the last album and where we are now.
