In the Name of Love (Earth, Wind & Fire song)

In the Name of Love was produced by Maurice White who composed the song alongside Melanie Andrews, Morris Pleasure, Sheldon Reynolds and Betty Reynolds. This single's b-side was another song entitled Cruising. Both of these tunes came upon Earth, Wind & Fire's 1997 album In The Name of Love.^[1]

Phyl Garland of Stereo Review wrote "The signature shouting horns provide an exciting response to the strutting vocals of the catchy title song."^[3] Geoffrey Himes of the Washington Post found "Maurice White's lead vocals engage the horns in a heady call-and-response dialogue."^[4] David Wild of Rolling Stone also called the tune "classic sounding."^[5]
