"This Is Love" is a song by English musician Gary Numan, released in 1986 as the lead single from his eighth studio album Strange Charm.

Early copies of the single included a free interview flexi disc,[3][4] while some 12" copies were issued with "Call Out the Dogs" as a free single.

[5] Upon release, Newcastle Evening Chronicle described the song as a "slow romantic ballad" and Numan's "best in ages".

[6] In a retrospective review of the album, Ned Raggett of AllMusic wrote: "Numan uses silence and less-crowded arrangements to create a more dramatic impact.

Flat-out successes such as "The Sleeproom" and the concluding ballad "This Is Love," with heavily echoed piano and singing leading the way, show how his decision worked wonders.
