Wikipedia article"'The Only Love'" is a ballad performed by the Bee Gees, It was written and produced by Barry Gibb, Robin Gibb and Maurice Gibb, lead vocals by Barry Gibb. Released on their 1991 album 'High Civilization'. Recording"The Only Love" was originally offered by Barry to Kelli Wolfe, but he then replaced it with a song he wrote specifically for her, "Born to Be Loved by You". This track sounds like an extended Barry verse welded to the type of big singalong chorus that Robin and Maurice always favored, Its lyrics are well put and under the circumstances he seems entitled to the over-the-top repeats at the song's finish. This song was originally offered to Bryan Adams, though he declined their offer. ReleaseIt was released as a single only in Europe, the B-side was a previously unreleased live version of "You Win Again", recorded in Melbourne, Australia during their 1989 "One For All World Tour". The song did not chart in the UK and America, but it reached #31 in Germany. The sleeve art for the single was a photo collage that included an image of Maurices daughter Samantha right in the center. "The Only Love" was only performed during the 1991 High Civilization Tour. It was covered by Ana Gazzola in Portuguese.
