"Save Our Love" is a song recorded by the British R&B girl group Eternal. It was the second single to be released from their debut album Always & Forever. The single entered at number 12 on the UK Singles Chart on 15 January 1994, climbing to its peak of number eight the following week, and remained in the UK top 75 for seven weeks. A music video was filmed for the song in December 1993.
Music & Media commented, "They promised to stay with us forever and always, and judged by the quality of this second single, these new jill swingers won't be out of sight and hearing for a long time."[2] Alan Jones from Music Week rated the song four out of five, adding, "Eternal's glossy and soulful sheen is impeccably stamped all over a chiming mid-tempo cut that may not be as addictive as Stay, but is nevertheless uplifting and radio friendly. More propulsive and muscular mixes have already powered this to the top of the Club Chart, and pop success is assured."[3] Tim Jeffery from the magazine's RM Dance Update complimented the club remix by West End, stating that they are "transforming this pop swing thing into a chugging funky semi-house track that will give Eternal an airing on the dancefloor. Commercial of course, and very catchy, especially the constantly repeated chorus".[4]
Mark Frith from Smash Hits rated the song five out of five. He wrote, "Now, this is the stuff. Save Our Love begins with chiming bells and goes into a swing beaty groove before giving way to a wonderful anthemic pop chorus that's shouted with gusto. It sounds incredible — and that's just on it first play. A few more listens and you realise it's a truly great, cool and bang up-to-date pop record, the sort you'll remember as one of your favourites of the year next Christmas. That good. Top 3 at least, but it could go to the top."[5]
