"I Want Your Love" is an R&B/disco song composed by Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers of Chic fame. The track was contained on their 1978 album, "C'est Chic". Originally intended for then-protégés, Sister Sledge, "I Want Your Love" went on to become a slightly-less successful follow-up [ [http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=33:dpfwxcrkldde allmusic ] ] to their classic smash, "Le Freak" (also from "C'est Chic").

Chart positions

Chic's "I Want Your Love" peaked at #7 (#5 R&B) on the Billboard Top 40 chart in March of 1979. The song remained on the charts for 19 weeks. In UK the song reached #4 (the highest position of any Chic singles) and spent 11 weeks on the UK's single chart.
