"Strange Love" is a song that was issued as the third single by Motown singer Mary Wells. The song would be later issued on Wells' second album, The One Who Really Loves You.[1]
The song talks of a woman who says despite the fact she has separated from a former lover, she still has emotions for him often recalling memories of the lover and says the harder she tries to get rid of the memories, the more she wants him back. It was a rare ballad released by the teenage crooner.
