Transcription

Background

In 2007, Bedingfield began writing and recording new material for her second North American album Pocketful of Sunshine. Producer J. R. Rotem had been working with Bedingfield on the album. Rotem introduced Bedingfield to reggae pop singer/rapper Sean Kingston, who was also recording with Rotem. Bedingfield decided to work with Kingston because she "just Liked his thing".[3] In an interview with Digital Spy, she said that she respected rappers and seemed to "have a little thing with rappers" since she had previously worked with Estelle, Eve and Bizarre from D12.[3]

Composition

The song was written by Bedingfield, Kingston, Wayne Wilkins, Louis Biancaniello, Rico Love, Ryan Tedder from the band OneRepublic, and Sam Watters—an original member of American R&B group Color Me Badd. It was also produced by Biancaniello, Love, Tedder, and Watters together as the Runawayz. The song is composed in the key of F major and set in common time. Bedingfield's vocals span from C4 to F5. The Auto Tune effect is heard in a few parts of the song.[7] In the song, Bedingfield discusses finding love with a person who has always "been there all your life", but that "you've never noticed it until now". According to her, it is all about realizing how that person is actually the "love of your life".[3]

Critical reception

"Love Like This" received mixed reviews from critics. Chuck Taylor in a review for Billboard described the song as a "jaunty, youthful track that clears home base and should propel Nat forward",[8] while Chris Boeckmann of Stylus Magazine called it "useless" and a "dud".[9] Michael Slezak of Entertainment Weekly found the song left him "feeling absolutely nothing". Slezak was unimpressed with the pairing of Bedingfield and Kingston, writing "it's as if two people who I'm not entirely convinced can sing got together and recorded a heavily focus-grouped song, then ran their vocals through a giant computer".[10]

In a review for About.com, Bill Lamb called the song "irrepressibly sunny, but forgettable".[11] In another review of the song, Lamb wrote that Kingston's vocals "serve no purpose other than providing an extra element for the single's marketing campaign".[12]

Chart performance

"Love Like This" was officially solicited to radio in the United States on 20 September 2007.[13] The song was released as a download on 2 October 2007, and debuted at number 19 on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart.[14] The following week the song rose to number four,[15] before debuting on the Hot 100 chart at number 94.[4] Fifteen weeks later "Love Like This" reached number 11.[4] The song did well on pop-oriented charts, reaching number 10 on the Pop 100 chart and number 10 on the Top 40 Mainstream chart.[16] The single had crossover success in the dance charts, where it reached number one on the Hot Dance Club Play chart and number 17 on the Hot Dance Airplay chart.[5] The song has sold over one million digital downloads and has been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.[6]

Elsewhere, "Love Like This" was largely successful, reaching number nine in Canada and number five in New Zealand.[4] In the United Kingdom, the song debuted at number 27 on 25 March 2008.[17] Four weeks later, it reached number 20 and remained on the singles chart for seven weeks.[4]

Music video

The music video was directed by Gil Green and produced by Merge @ Crossroads.[18] Filmed in Los Angeles, California, the video features Bedingfield reuniting with a love from her past.[19] The video begins with Bedingfield singing in a park. She then meets up with a boyfriend (played by model Josh Slack) from her past. The two then remember the good times they had together while sitting on a picnic bench. The video concludes with Bedingfield singing and dancing at a house party. Scenes of Kingston in front of an ice cream truck and at the house party are intercut throughout the video.

The video premiered on Bedingfield's official US website on 27 October 2007.[20] In 2008, the video reached number two on VH1's VSpot Top 20 Countdown in the United States.[6]
