"In Walked Love" is a song by the American girl group Exposé. Written by Diane Warren and produced by Steve Thompson and Michael Barbiero, the song can be found on the group's 1992 album Exposé, their third studio album. Lead vocals on the pop ballad were performed by Ann Curless. The song features Al Pitrelli as guest guitarist. In 1996, British singer Louise covered the song and reached number 17 on the UK Singles Chart with her rendition.

Reception

Released as the fourth and final single from the album Exposé, "In Walked Love" entered the Billboard Hot 100 chart in April 1994, peaking at number 84. It fared better on the Billboard adult contemporary chart, where it reached number 17. To date, this is the last Exposé single to reach either chart, although their single "I'll Say Good-Bye for the Two of Us" (from the soundtrack to the film Free Willy 2) "bubbled under" the Hot 100 in 1995.

Critical reception

A reviewer from Music Week gave Louise's version of "In Walked Love" three out of five, adding, "Continuing to build profile, the former Eternal singer's voice sounds even stronger on this chartbound R&B love ballad." Mark Sutherland from NME described it as "straightforwardly danceable". Gina Morris from Smash Hits gave it two out of five, writing, "Little Lu's second solo single is a bit poppier than her debut but, like a lame pony, it doesn't go anywhere."
