"My Love" is the lead single from Céline Dion's greatest hits album My Love: Essential Collection.^[1] The song went to radio on September 22, 2008 and became available as a music download on the next day. The physical 2-track single was released on October 20, 2008 in the United Kingdom and October 31, 2008 in Germany.^[2]

"My Love" was written by Linda Perry and originally featured on Dion's 2007 album Taking Chances. In 2008, it was recorded live in Stockholm, Sweden during the Taking Chances Tour and included on My Love: Essential Collection. However, radio stations received a studio version of the recording. The live music video premiered on September 25, 2008.

Céline Dion performed "My Love" at the 43rd annual Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon via satellite from her Taking Chances Tour. The telethon took place on August 31, 2008 and was simultaneously broadcast on television stations throughout the United States and Canada.^[3] On October 28, 2008 Dion performed the song also on The Oprah Winfrey Show and on December 3, 2008 on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

"My Love" reached number 9 on the Hungarian Singles Chart. The CD single was released in the UK and Germany with virtually no promotion surrounding it in the media, leading to its peak position at number 129 on the UK Singles Chart and not charting on the German Singles Chart. The song did much better on the adult contemporary charts, peaking at number 8 in Canada and number 15 in the United States. On the Canadian Hot 100, "My Love" reached number 67.

The video of recording "My Love" in studio during the Taking Chances sessions was included on the Japan only released Ultimate Box (2008).
