"Future Love Paradise" is a song recorded by English singer-songwriter Seal. Released on 22 April 1991 by ZTT Records as the lead track on Future Love EP, it was also included as the second single on Seal's debut album, Seal (1991). The song is written by Seal, produced by Trevor Horn and achieved a great success in several countries, including Switzerland, Ireland and Norway where it reached the top 10. It also hit number 12 on the UK Singles Chart. The version of the lead track on Future Love EP contains an extended vamp and breakdown which fades out later. The album version is shorter and fades out before this section takes place.

Pan-European magazine Music & Media wrote in their single review, that this follow-up to "Crazy" "radiates a similar mesmerising groove and (Trevor Horn-produced) sophistication."[1] Stephen Dalton from NME said, "Best of all, current smash 'Future Love Paradise' presents a panoramic Utopian vision with power and panache. Seal's rich tones slithering and sliding like warm treacle into your most intimate recesses. Oo-er."[2] Miranda Sawyer from Smash Hits felt this "swooping epic" is destined for Britain's Top Five, "and quite right too."[3]
