I Need Love is from Olivia's 1992 greatest hits album Back to Basics - it was one of the four new songs on that album and the lead single.

The video has Olivia dressed in a sexy short black dress with thigh length boots. The room, for some artistical reason, is full of ribbons and lace. The video also features snippets from the 1988 Love and Let Live Video and Can't We Talk It Over In Bed videos.

Olivia actually didn't find filming this video that enjoyable, saying in 1994 "and it was the let's put you in a black dress deal again, and I'm going but I really don't, you know, but we need a single, so... I mean as much it's my fault that I decided to record the song, but I knew that if I went to a record company with these songs they'd either say well where's the single, or where's the one that you're going to get dressed in lingerie and sing and I remember going to do publicity photos for the greatest hits album, and the guy, I said, look, I don't want to wear sexy clothes. It turned out quite nice, but it was like, they used everything but the word sex that they could to try and convince me that I needed to wear a black dress." August 30 1994 interview with Debbie Kruger.

However, most fans agree the video came out just great with Olivia looking wonderful!
