"Dr. Love" is a song by Norwegian singer Stella Getz,[1] released in 1994 by Mega Records as the second single from the singer's debut album, Forbidden Dreams (1994). The song was written and produced by Lars E. Ludvigsen and Mikkel S. Eriksen, becoming a top 10 hit in Denmark (6) and a top 30 hit in Germany (30), with a total of 11 weeks on the charts.[2] In Getz' native Norway, it reached number three on the radio chart Ti i skuddet. Outside Europe, "Dr. Love" was successful in Israel, peaking at number eight. The music video for the song was directed by Nick Burgess-Jones. It was A-listed on Germany's VIVA in July 1994.[3] British magazine Music Week wrote in their review, "Bouncy Euro pop meets MC Kinky in this track by the 17-year-old Norwegian/Nigerian dancer and rapper who has Ace of Base as stablemates. The selection of ever harder dub mixes will get dancefloors pumping."[4]
