"Don't You Love Me" is a 1990 dance single by Italian house and Eurodance act 49ers. Produced by Gianfranco Bortolotti, it was released as the fourth single from the 49ers album. The single featured a vocal sample from Jody Watley's 1987 hit "Don't You Want Me" On the European charts, it reached number 12 in the UK, number 10 in Switzerland, and number 6 in Ireland. On the US charts, it was the group's second and last number-one single on the dance chart, where it spent two weeks.[1] "Don't You Love Me" was the group's only entry on the Hot 100, peaking at number 78.

Critical reception[]

Bill Coleman from Billboard wrote, "Sample-happy Italian outfit follows No. 1, "Touch Me", with an engaging, though less-inspired house jam, coated with disco coloring."[2] David Giles from Music Week stated that the song "should do equally well both on the dancefloor and in the shops. It uses all the tricks of the Italian house formula in order to produce an urgent good-time track."[3]
