"Love Shy (Thinking About You)" (often shortened to Love Shy) is the second single by UK bassline group Platnum. It was released after the success of "What's It Gonna Be" with H "Two" O.

The original version of "Love Shy" had been given a bassline makeover by DJ/producer Shaun 'Banger' Scott at the end of 2007. The remix was well received in the bassline scene; this is possibly the reason that Platnum decided to produce their own version.
