'If You Think You Know How to Love Me' is a song by British rock band Smokie. It was first released in June 1975 as a single and appeared later on the album Changing All the Time. Like the band's first single 'Pass It Around', the song was composed by Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman.
Upon its release, 'If You Think You Know How to Love Me' became a chart success all over Europe, peaking at No. 2 in Ireland, No. 3 in Sweden, No. 6 in Norway, No. 8 in Germany and No. 15 in the Netherlands. It took six weeks for the song to debut in the UK Singles Chart on 19 July 1975. After a few days, Smokie appeared on BBC show Top of the Pops, and this helped the song to climb the charts.[1] The single eventually peaked at No. 3 on the UK charts, during a nine week stay on that chart.[2]
A second version of the song was included in the 1988 album All Fired Up, sung by Alan Barton. The 1975 version was sung by original Chris Norman.
Other versions[edit]
Jim Capaldi recorded a cover of the song in 1976 which was released only on the A-side of a Germany-only single. He changed some of the lyrics to suit his assertive, independent personality: 'You know you've got my life lying in your hands / It's up to you to make me understand' is replaced by 'You've got my life figured in your plans / But there's one thing you got to understand', and the chorus line 'You've got to lead the way' is replaced by 'Don't try to lead the way'.
The track was also recorded by American rock singer Pat Benatar for her 1979 debut album In the Heat of the Night. It was released as her first single but failed to chart.
A cover version from Rex Smith was included in his 1979 album Sooner or Later.
Former Fleetwood Mac guitarist Bob Welch included a cover on his eponymous fifth solo album from 1981.[3]
Chris Norman included his solo cover of the song on his 2000 studio album Full Circle.[4]

I can't forget you
Ever since the moment that I met you You've been on my mind And I need to somehow let you know That I think about you all the time
So when you think about love, think about me
I can give you more than you'll ever need Sooner or later every heart needs some company When you think about love, think about me When you think about love, think about me
We were strangers
Now I'm already wrapped around your finger Oh whats a heart to do 'Cause it lingers And the thought of you Wantin' me as much as I want you Related
So when you think about love, think about me
I can give you more than you'll ever need Sooner or later every heart needs some company When you think about love, think about me When you think about love, think about me
Makes me blue
I'm not holding you tonight Cause only you can satisfy This heart of mine
So when you think about love, think about me
I can give you more than you'll ever need Sooner or later every heart needs some company When you think about love, think about me When you think about love, think about me
So when you think about love, think about me I can give you more than you'll ever need Sooner or later every heart needs some company When you think about love, think about me When you think about love, think about me Comments are closed.
